Hi guys and girls ;)

I was thinking about how great would be if the band could have an International Fan Club, so I started talking with some members from this forum and all of them think that it would be a great ideia.

So, I'm here to ask the band and all of you if it is possible, what would I have to do, if the band could help me doing this, and suggestions and comments from all.

I already registered a domain at www.beenchanted.com to host my site, and it will be in portuguese and english for now.

Let me know guys!
 
Hi Marco!

As I mentioned yesterday, yes, I would love to help you with the EIFC!!! I am a photographer and would love to share Enchanted photos of the guys in action on the "lighted stages" of Germany this fall! I will try to keep a daily journal too. :)

Ed, Doug, Ted, Sean, and Bill - an EIFC is a great idea...hope you all agree! :)

Marco, maybe contact John van Emple over at DTIFC for some helpful hints! :) He does a great job with the 1st class DTIFC!

As a previous and current webmaster, I'd be willing to share my skillset on developing a website for this project. Let me know how I can assist!
 
joedog ,

Cool man!!!
Hope you can help us.
In fact I will transfer my website to the domain I just mentioned, and I was thinking about centralizing the thing, but of course any extra help and ideas are acceptable ;)

Mare,

Thks again for the lyrics. I would love to have your pictures and your site as a collaborator to spread Enchant's music over the world.
I was thinking about a International fan club but I dont know if I can handle with a fan club like the DT's one. They are very huge, with a lot of thing going on like, cd, monthly payments...may we can begin with something a little smaller. I dont know.

Marco, of course, start small - even the DTIFC did. I was just thinking he'd be a good source for ideas. Definitely skip the payment part, LOL!!! You bet, though, I'm in on this as long as the guys support it. LOL, maybe ask Jellyfish, too, LOL!!!! (Sorry, just had to throw that in there!!!)

It could include a '20 questions' column and a 'pic of the month' .... I know there are more ideas to be had...
 
<=== would love to be a member. I'd happily pay some cash if it gave me odds and ends from the band (ie, accoustic version of Beautiful, random covers, b-sides, anything and everything).
 
Hey Disco,

Easy yourself man!

It would be a pleasure if I could do everything you said, but I need to be authorized by the band and I need their assistence and help to do that.

Try to convince them! ;)

Maybe with that I can bring them down to South America.
 
Hey Great Idea Marco

I will talk with the guys next Week, I won,t see anyone til Monday or Tuesday. Ted is gone on Vacation for a week but I will talk to Doug, Sean and Bill Tuesday at our next Re-Hearsal.

We are really super busy right now and will not be around for most of the weekend so this might be a few days before we get a chance to discuss it. I will post some updates as soon as I get a few minutes somewhere.

Big thanks from us OK!
 
Ok man!
No problem with that!

Just let us know the news and mail me with the comments from the guys!

Btw I emailed Ted and Doug but none of them mailed me back.

Check this out for me if you can right?

One last thing:
Your bass line on Progtology is amazing man!!! Great Work!
 
Hi everyone. This is my first post. It seems that Enchant has another massive fan in Rio de janeiro.

I started listening to this band back in 1999, when I was fully digging into the Magna Carta catalog. I became TOTALLY blown away by BOTW. That album is one of my favorites ever, and their best IMO. I specially became a fan of Paul Craddick. His playing in that album is pure genious.

Already enchanted, I was back in the cd store where I got BOTW as fast as I could to buy Wounded too, which I consider another outstanding album. However, I was kind of disappointed. I expected another Blueprint. Paul´s playing was different. The whole thing sounded different. Anyway, I listened the two albuns over and over.

After a couple of months, I decided to check Break (I didn´t know of Time Lost at the time). At that time, I was totally shocked. I didn´t like it at first. That wasn´t Enchant anymore. "What´s this progressive Soundgarden?", I thought.

Then it was time for the release of J9OD10. I decided to give this album a serious spin. Somehow, I began to understand the changes in the Enchant music (including Craddick´s drumming), and started to appreciate both J9OD10 and Break at least as much as Wounded. "What to Say" made me sure that they were still brilliant. After a while, I discovered Time Lost and continued to listen to all of their albuns a lot.

Today, I´m very happy with the last two albuns. Blink is wonderful, and so is Tug. Sean rocks too. I just wish I had some more info on what´s Paul been up to.

So much for writing.. sorry for the long post.

and of course: ENCHANT, PLEASE COME TO BRAZIL!!!!
 
Hi everybody!

I'm too much busy these days so I cant post many messages in the forum!

In fact, I'm waiting somekind of position from the band, cause withut them I cant do that alone! ;)

More news soon!
 
Wow - this is a GREAT idea!
I'd sign up in a second. Got my fingers crossed that it works out.

By the way - I'm an English major and have basically done writing for a living (been a tech writer, done some marketing/proposal work - currently just became an associate editor at a publishing company here in Florida that does science, enviromental, medical text and reference books) and would be MORE that willing to help out in terms of work on articles or stories or the like.... I'd love to do whatever I could to try and help the band and the fanclub out.

I was also at ProgPower (Evergrey and Symph X were downright AMAZING) and think it would ROCK to see ENCHANT play that venue - I know I'll be right up front for THAT! Think I'll bop over to the Prog Power forum and drop Glenn H. an email request about trying to get Enchant on the list for 2004.

And just picked up TUG OF WAR at PP4. So far I think it kicks ass! :p
