I Too Have Sailed The World...

Since the sad loss of Jimmy, I've been letting a lot of things slide on the community for those of us who've wished to share our feelings and suchlike with fans such as ourselves. I'm not saying I regret this, I think some of us needed to get these things out and it was nice to see the comments people had made about the man.

However, now I would like to get back to this community being a forum for our fanfic.

This doesn't mean I expect everyone to start writing again right away, everyone grieves at their own pace, everyone deals with loss differently. But I would like this community to go back to being about the fiction instead of everything else now please.

Thanks guys.

Your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Mod,
Vee.

Author's note: I realize that for some people, it's too soon to think about Jimmy stories. But for some of us, we need this to keep life somewhat normal. We all grieve in our own way and some of us write about Jimmy to grieve. Personally, I've been craving Jimmy stories (new and old), to help me start to heal. If you do read, feel free to comment.

I found this in 2007 and it was on a myspace group. One of my friends just reminded me it exsisted. I hope it can give you a laugh, maybe even a small chuckle like it did for me.
i hope it works this time....

Happy New Year to all I know we are all still in mourning over a great loss and I wont ramble long. I was just wondering if anyone knew where I could send a sympathy card for Jimmy's family or the guy from the band...(ex. Warner Brother's Record...ect..) Any information would help greatly.

This song is specially dedicated to James "The Rev" Owen Sullivan, the multi-talented drummer of Avenged Sevenfold that passed away December 28, 2009. This man was not only the greatest drummer of the decade, but also a brother, friend, husband, and idol to so many. Jimmy was very talented at not only percussion, but also guitar, bass, piano, and vocals. His sudden death at age 28 was a shock to millions of fans and a tragic one at that. However, instead of choosing a sad song for our beloved drummer, I have picked a song written by The Rev himself that we can all remember him by. Jimmy, if you're up there, keep on rockin'. Although your passing was heartbreaking, I'm sure you're feeling better in the afterlife than you ever were here. Our hearts go out to you.( Click here to hear the song. )
I know there are, like, five million of these up, but I stayed away from the rambling as much as I could.

I took all of your suggestions on the t-shirt and I came up with a few different options for the front of it.

before you hate on me I just want to say I love Jimmy... he's part of the reason I am who I am today. a free spirit who doesn't give a crap what others think... but this is getting overrun with... complete sadness.

I'm not trying to be a bitch, but I KNOW I'm not the only person who goes to their friends page and just gets depressed again by all the RIP Jimmy posts in the slash comms.

I'm begging can we please post these to either 1) your own personal journals or 2) the a7x LJ page. It just seems better that way anyway instead of posting to hardcore and slashness. I'M NOT SPEAKIUNG JUST MYSELF, I'VE HEARD A TON OF PEOPLE SAYING THEY WANT THIS TOO!

I really really am not trying to be a heartless bitch. I swear I feel devastated and keep randomly breaking out in tears as well... but I don't want to do that and all the posts in f-list are just making it worse. I'm not alone in this.

I'm not saying to move on because it's not easy I know it's not. <3333

I showed the t-shirt I designed (which is a few posts below this) to one of my friends and she was helping me fix the design of the shirt. I found another custom t-shirt website that has the exact font of Jimmy's perma-jersey tattoo. Let me know what you guys think of this one...

I'm usually a lurker here, just reading all the wonderful stories that everyone has posted but in light of Jimmy's death, I felt I should step out of the shadows and say something about mine and everyone else's favorite drummer.

It has been hard to stop the tears since I first heard the news of his passing at 12:30 am on the 29th. Truthfully, my only regret is that I never got the opportunity to meet the amazingly talented and kind person that was James Owen Sullivan. He was such an inspiration to not only me but all of the Avenged Sevenfold fan family and of course everyone whose life he touched however briefly. Even now as I write this, the tears are flowing steadily as I remember him. Unfortunately, I was only able to see Jimmy play live three times, but those three concerts were some of the best I’ve ever attended. I offer my condolences to not just his brothers, his best friends, his wife and parents, but to the other fans as well. We all lost a hero and the world will forever be a slightly colder, sadder, and darker place without Jimmy in it. I plan on getting a tattoo in memorial of him as he was one of my favorite musicians and one of few who actually gave me a passion for music. He was a legend and a god among men. He will never ever be forgotten and will go down in history as one of the greatest drummers, songwriters, and musicians.

Tonight I will raise a glass in remembrance and celebration of Jimmy “the Rev” Sullivan’s life, because though he may have been a crazy ass motherfucker, he was truly a kind and loving individual with a childlike zest for life. He was someone that everyone should strive to be more like in the future. I know I will. So here’s to you, Rev. May you find peace in your afterlife, and I hope you’re up there terrorizing the angels.

I'm gonna take my turn to write about this amazingly talented and goofy man.

Jimmy has never been my favorite member of Avenged Sevenfold, but he has taken part of changing my life. Not to mention he's one good-looking and badass motherfucker behind his kit.

I have never met Jimmy, even though he already came to my country twice, even drinking a King Cobra blood here once too. But I have never had the chance to see him live and meet him.

On the first two days, I kept moping. I knew on December 29, 12:36 P.M. Indonesia's Western Time. I was chatting with my friend through AIM, and she told me the worst news I could ever hear. I don't wanna see the words "Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan", "died", "death", and "autopsy" in the same article ever again, except if it's about him reviving from his death. I kept wishing it was a dead faint. A fake death. I just wanna know why he died, if it's acceptable, then maybe I can let him rest.

I couldn't stand looking at Jimmy's pictures or videos. I couldn't stand listening to Avenged Sevenfold. I just kept crying and crying and crying. And you know what my family did? They laughed at me. I know Jimmy would laugh at me for crying over him, but I would forgive him, 'cos that's just who he was. Is. Whatever. But this is my family, and they don't give a fuck about it. They don't give a fuck about my feelings, how I've only known him for three short years and how losing him is like losing a brother, a family, a best friend.

Well, I can't do anything to stop it now. I just need time to process all of this. I don't know if I can ever accept this, but I'll try, for Jimmy's sake.

( P.S.: )
I hope this can bring you guys some smiles. I'm sorry if I just put some salt on your wounds... We're gonna get through this. Together.

This is my thoughts about the Rev's death. I had to say my part. I wrote this mostly for me, so that I can begin to heal.
