Okay. So we all know the tour is coming soon. Soooo... Mister Twister gave me an idea

Simple, huh?

This hasn't been organised yet - I'm merely exploring the idea.
Those who are going to concerts during the tour can put their names here and members of the forum can meet up. I doubt I'd be able to arrange all this, so you'd all have to elect a leader out of your group whom you'll most likely meet at the gate that will get there earlier than the rest - and please be identifiable and let the others know your details via PM so they can find you

There is a risk associated with this, as with everything. I am sure that if you disclose the information to this little group it will go smoothly - but you'd still have to be on the lookout...

[15-May-08] (THIS NEWSPOST IS RELEVANT TO THE 2008 NORTH AMERICAN LEG OF THE TOUR ONLY. OTHERWISE DISREGARD THIS)

I think it's safe to say we're on the organising side for the US/Canada concerts. Therefore, some noties need to be added.

- If you start a thread for your area, first check if there is one first, but them PM me the link. I can't be running around looking for your threads, things are busy enough as they are.
- Elect a leader for your group who is willing to lead in organising this, because I can't, duh
- I need a list of who's going to what concert, so set a deadline for people to confirm that they've got tickets (presumably after the general ticket sale date)
- Also start thinking about your arrangements.

Hope this all goes well

But anyway. Who thinks the idea rules? Who thinks the idea sucks?

I THINK ITS COOL

Cobalt · 10-05-2008, 08:52 AM

Oh right, forgot one teensy sentence in my post

What are your ideas on organising this!

twistedCLOCKS · 10-05-2008, 09:01 AM

that mrs twisted to you lol.

yes i agree what a great idea!

I just wanna hear aussie tour dates, i think that's a start haha.

Cobalt · 10-05-2008, 09:04 AM

A start for us 8D8D I might not be able to go though if I win the Brixxy tickets

... doubt it

We'll see 8D not likely I will get them anyway

twistedCLOCKS · 10-05-2008, 10:14 AM

^ yeh what i said...

42rock89 · 10-05-2008, 10:16 AM

I had the same problem yesterday, I was not at home though but when I went on my home pc, it worked so if you cant sort anything else, try another pc if you can.

Sounds like a great idea, I wish they would add some UK dates though

Chavi · 10-05-2008, 11:08 AM

I also had the flashing thing.. because I was using Firefox, so I switched to Internet explorer and it worked fine !

anyone wants to meet me in Paris ?

(when we'll get a show date..)

Aleluvscp · 10-05-2008, 11:28 AM

The idea sounds great. But as far as Italian concert dates go.. I think I'll have to wait till next year. Still, any italians attending a concert can contact me (be patient though.. my italian is terrible!!

)

Starlight · 10-05-2008, 02:03 PM

That'd be fun! Anyone going to the Philly show?

winigwl · 10-05-2008, 02:18 PM

I've talked about this with chelsea and anna for a ny show, but since the only one is the free one, i don't know if i'll be able to get tix.
But i will absolutely be at the nj show! anyone esle be there as well?
