London signing - Page 2

black rose · 06:43 PM

Damn. I was really hoping it wouldn't be spread around.
I've got seats for the gig, so I don't have to worry about queueing and such.
If this still goes ahead, and I really hope it does, the earliest I can get there is 7am.
Think that should be alright?

That's so early! The earliest i can get there is 9 or a little after, i hope i don't miss out i'm travelling from 5 in the morning to get there..argh

Would it be wrong to bring Aeroplane Flies high to sign? :/

markpregen · 02-13-2008, 08:18 PM

did they only sign machina stuff at the virgin megastore signings? i imagine they'll only sign AG or Z or the line would really move slowly

MonteLDS · 08:31 PM

nope. they signed my superman

New Art Rioter · 02-14-2008, 05:30 AM

I'm bringing my setlist from 2000 for them to sign... hopefully it'll be cool

Oh that box. They sold 3 copies, so you better be really skinny and flexible.

You need to buy 3 copies and proof you bought all Zeitgeist version.

But anyway, it won't be a problem for me either as i won't be able to get there before 9:30. Beh.

Kahlo · 02-14-2008, 09:23 AM

damn you lena! bram isn't going either

leena · 02-14-2008, 09:32 AM

Oh he's not? I might go there straight from St Pancras, but by the time i'll get there all wristbands will be gone. I guess i'll have no other option than assault someone with a wristband. Yay!

Kahlo · 02-14-2008, 09:37 AM

you are a formidable women and i'm sure you will get one

here is a pic from when we met:

Thank god i shaved my armpits & moustache that day.

black rose · 02-14-2008, 08:24 PM

So I was in the shop today, and they're advertising the shit out of it.
There's a board outside about it, posters inside, and even on the dividers that seperate the Pumpkins' CD's it says "Signing this Saturday!".
Good news is, they're giving out 2 wristbands per person, so if your not able to get one yourself, you may be able to find someone with a spare.
Chances are I'll have one I think.

what time you getting there in the morning. im gonna try and get there before 9 but im travelling in from manchester and delays can happen, so yeah get a spare. likewise, ill get a spare if i manage to get some.

JRiordan · 02-15-2008, 12:36 AM

We will be racing here from the Manchester show overnight via train, so lapis and I will gladly take anyone's spares. But I expect we'll get our own. If not... have mercy on us Americans!

sincere · 02-15-2008, 04:29 AM

well the dedication is impressive - people coming from Manchester - me? I live 15 minutes away by train so I think Ill try to get there for about half 7 - even then Im sure there will be all the fucking cool people with stupid coloured hair and MCR t-shirts that are all like "My daddy so brought me here at 5am - he even trotted off to get me my bagels and latte because I so cant function without that" ............oh god.........................

leena · 02-15-2008, 04:59 AM

I will personally chop of the hands of those fucking-cool-people-with-stupid-coloured-hair-and-MCR-t-shirts and recover their wristbands. If they show up at the signing in MCR shirts Billy might run off... We can't risk that. And anyway, they probably just plan on selling the signed cd's on ebay in order to get enough money for their next cool stupid haircut.

I'll try to get an earlier Eurostar ticket so i can get there in time, but i'm pretty sure that's not gonna work out. My train arrives at St Pancras at 9:00 *sigh*.

black rose · 02-15-2008, 11:48 AM

At most signing's I've been to I've wanted to stab numerous people.
At least with a Pumpkins one there's less chance of prepubescent girls screaming, and proclaiming how the band saved their life.
I've become quite worried now that there's gonna be a huge queue at 7.
It sucks that's the earliest I can get up there, I'm about 15 minutes away on a train and then 15 minutes from that on a tube/bus.
Otherwise I'd have to get the nightbus up. That takes nearly and hour and half and for a girl on her own, it's not the best.

Kahlo · 02-15-2008, 11:55 AM

i'm sure a gentleman will volunteer his services

black rose · 02-15-2008, 12:29 PM

I just rang them up to clarify the wristband situation.
Turns out it's only 1 per person now!
Which is annoying as it was advertised as 2 outside the shop.
Boo

and the newsletter which has been sent from sp.com

New Art Rioter · 02-15-2008, 02:11 PM

I'm gonna turn up at 8.30. Hopefully all will be cool.

black rose · 02-15-2008, 05:49 PM

I doubt they'll be that many people there until 9.
Pumpkins fans don't strike me to be the queueing type.
More laid back I think.

skipgo · 02-15-2008, 05:56 PM

i've been in many a long line waiting to see SP, so I'll have to beg to differ

black rose · 02-15-2008, 09:06 PM

Haha, alright then. My mistake!
Damn. There go my plans of hoping there won't be many people at 7am.
Oh well.
5 hours from now and I'm off.
I should really go to bed!

Loop · 02-16-2008, 08:21 AM

I got me a wristband!
Got there at 8:40 & was quite impressed at the size of the queue already, I was no 229

frenchy · 02-16-2008, 10:37 AM

Very nice event, quite well organized.
The London fans are really shy and polite.

Almost everyone got access to the signing.

You could get (almost) anything signed, i got my white Tarantula vynil signed.

Now the good news :
BC is in the best mood i've seen in years !!!!
And he told us that today they will play new songs, and seemed excited about it !!!
