erilynThe BSB fanclub continue their long tradition for being pretty damn useless - they notified a few Aussie soundcheck winners today, the rest should hear tomorrow. Of course, this wasn't made clear, so when one person popped up on the fanclub saying "I won soundcheck passes!!!", it was practically ::cricket cricket cricket:: as everyone wondered why no one else at WW, LiveDaily or the Aussie mailing list was saying they'd won too.
It sounds like a bit of an upgrade - you're allowed to take photos *and* video (last time video had to be done discreetly), have have a group photo with the guys (and get a signed photo). However, the group photo part to me sound like the practice of letting extra people in to the soundchecks probably won't happen this time around. I could be wrong, but that's my gut feeling on seeing that, given the extra organisation that'll be needed.
Which is a problem if I *do* win, cause I don't want to leave![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
not_nele or indybrat waiting by themself. And if I don't win, which is the more likely outcome, we'll have to see what the reports are from the Brisbane concert as to whether we want to try our luck of going along without passes (it worked last tour).
But the important is - eight days til concert fun! \o/

Date: 2008-02-14 10:12 am (UTC)Now I have a deep burning desire to make it a mission to get Ryan and/or Spencer to autograph a copy of Unbreakable. "Right near the tracklisting, please!"

Date: 2008-02-14 10:19 am (UTC)When I walked into the Brisbane soundcheck and saw them in person, it was...surreal. I wasn't overwhelmed cause it looked like all the soundcheck photos I'd seen other people post, so it was like I was in their photos, if that makes sense.
NO FAINTING AT THE CONCERT! I once had to help a girl stay on her feet when she saw her favourite actor from Highlander upclose (the surprising part was when I later found out that she had met him before).

Date: 2008-02-14 10:24 am (UTC)HOPEFULLY I WON'T FAINT!
She fainted yet she'd met him before? Weird!

no subject
Date: 2008-02-14 10:57 am (UTC)And I hope your source comes through for you.
no subject
Date: 2008-02-14 11:02 am (UTC)Fingers crossed! It's a slim chance that we'll all win but hey, we can dream at least.
She hasn't steered me wrong yet, but I won't put my complete faith in anyone or anything at this point. It's WW we're dealing with after all!

But yes we do. Omg I need to do my hair...
no subject
Date: 2008-02-14 12:09 pm (UTC)Oh man, don't even talk about hair. I gotta get mine under control. Thankfully, getting it cut while we're in Melbourne. Yay. Doesn't solve my dilemma for Sydney though. Why did I get it cut short again? *headdesk*

Date: 2008-02-14 05:19 pm (UTC)You are so going to witter about them to me once your concerts are over. I was at the O2 arena today (went for the Tutankhamun exhibition), and the only thing stopping me from going on some sort of rampage with the long queues was a BSB ad near where I was standing.
I WANT TO TOUCH AJ, DAMMIT, I'VE TOUCHED ALL THE OTHER FOUR ALREADY.

Date: 2008-02-14 07:56 pm (UTC)Is Friday morning or Saturday morning (your time) better for a concert call? Probably approx about 10am or so (+/- an hour).
I haven't received notification, but the mailing list hasn't erupted so I'm assuming they haven't gone out, still.
