[ingrid]

lol

ah well
I looked totally ugly on the pics anywayz, so can imagine they didn't pick me hahahaha

 

[Fullangr]

You look ugly? I have a microphone for a mouth!


I think it's Olli or Hanu's mic...you can see the top of my face, then this big silvery ball :Smug:

(I'm actually impressed you can see me at all - the 'miniature viking' bit isn't there for show, I'm only 5ft!)

 

[ingrid]

I got a bottle of Koskenkorva Salmiakki in front of my face


(an empty one at that point )

 

[Katie'Force]

well in the sheffield one i'm front centre! i was the same at the leeds gig, but bad photographer managed to miss me off the picture, baaaaaaaaaad photographer!

 

[Radeon915]

dunno, same question here. I send a mail a while back but I haven't got any response yet...

Yea me too, I'm the winner from the Haarlem one, I've sent them 2 mails now, but haven't got any reply, other than an automated 'away from office, back at date XX'

Also, I don't have my ticket anymore, because we had to deliver them at the entrance and didn't get them back..

 

[ingrid]

yap that's true, but well, you can just tell them
and I'll be your living proof in that case

 

[Katie'Force]

Also, I don't have my ticket anymore, because we had to deliver them at the entrance and didn't get them back..

i hate venues that do that!

 

[Fullangr]

I never had a ticket in the first place...my mate Sam booked them, they took the reference number and stamped our hands. Not even a ticket stub

 

[Katie'Force]

that sucks even more

 

[Fullangr]

Tell me about it. Me and Sam were like 'seriously, wtf? we paid for TICKETS you bastards!'

Soon got over it though

 

[Katie'Force]

yeah, i keep all my tickets together with any other souvenirs i get from gigs, i'd feel cheated if i didn't get a ticket

 

[Fullangr]

I did, and do feel cheated.


Think if I asked nicely, I could get a ticket in retrospect?

 

[Katie'Force]

haha not likely, unfortunately, hmmm.... just gave me an idea for a random off topic topic... *goes off to start it*

 

[tobz]

Best thing I've tried in that situation was for a Pain gig in Sweden. There we also had to leave our tickets in the door, which was a bummer because they were specially made with pictures on. But we actually got them back after the show, and at that point they were also signed by the band!
On another note, God almighty I look stupid on the Copenhagen pic...

 

[ingrid]

lol well, half of the shows I go to are guestlist spots (well ok, not half, but almost), so never have a ticket then, but I don't bother about it
what I dó find frustrating is when you go to a festival and have a guestlist spot, you don't get the nice wristbands but just a paper one
but well managed to get them anyway every time

 

[Katie'Force]

yeah same here, lots of guest list... so i try to steal something else from the gig as a souvenir instead

 

[ingrid]

hahaha bad girl

I only steal posters from walls mostly
that's why all my posters look so fucked up

and setlists, but I've thrown away most of those cause they were all epica anyway

 

[tobz]

Well, nowadays I mostly enter for free as well, as press, but since I only started writing last fall I still remember how it was to stand in line, with your little piece of paper tightly clutched in your hands while the rain was pouring down... Brrr....
Hmm, got a bit off the point there, sorry...

 

[Fullangr]

See that was what made it even more frustrating...most of the gigs I go to these days I'm presslisted, so this was a rare opportunity to actually have a ticket to put on my wall.


But no
