[Dai]

haha, seeeriously! we're slacking compared to the international folk. updated!

[HipMomster]

alright will someone please enlighten me why these roll call threads are all out of order?

they aren't bumped by posts...and they aren't in order by date...so ...

am i missing something here?

[Dai]

ya gotta sort them with the filter at the bottom right corner of the page, hon. "sort by title" and it'll be muuuuch easier to view.

[jmig]

POTENTIALLY In need of 1 ticket for this if anyone has an extra from the presale. I still need to get out of a major work thing that weekend but for now can you add me plus one. and Lisa I am your plus one!

[HipMomster]

LOL, thanks, Dai! i knew i was doing something wrong..didn't even know there was that feature

Jen, you better be my +1.

OMG why can't you go!? I thought for sure I would see you!

None of my friends can afford it, and TBH, I really can't, either, but I was prepared to sacrifice for it. Who needs food, really? But when I tried to get a ticket yesterday, they only had seats available - most likely because KROQ held the pit tickets for contests and the auctions they do every year for ACX. And I don't know if I want to spend that much money only to be stuck next to strangers the whole time...

SIGH.

[HipMomster]

yes, let me know ASAP if you can come for sure.

i will need to get rid of the other ticket.

[blinditachi]

I'm going. I can't wait to finally see 30STM!! I went to the Summit and the Listening Party but I haven't seen them live.

[Morrigan]

Me +1. *bounces*

[Morrigan]

Yes! It's a little bittersweet, since I have one because someone couldn't come, but...

[peterepublic]

It's been so long since my last post. Im going to this show +1

[MrSdiZzLe]

Hey guys, I have 2 extra tickets to night one so if any of you are interested (PM me) or know people who may be please spread the word!!! Thanks a bunch!

[Dai]

just for the record, i will (probably) be tweeting the setlist as it goes along, or will have someone post a set-list sheet if possible. :]

we are going to attempt promotion one way or another, be it outside and/or inside. no real need for coordination -- do what you can, where you can, and still be mindful of things. universal's hard to hit up sometimes without everything going into the trash 2 minutes after you've done it.

[Dai]

repost from the san diego thread:

if you are coming to the show and want to promote but have no materials, feel free to utilize the files @thisisthehive/@30secondstomars have provided via twitter -- go to kinkos, get copies printed, and distribute/post them wherever you can.

capitol would like us to hit the inside of the venue as well, but it'll be challenging. i just encourage everyone to do what they can, whether solo or in teams. if you want some "official" promo, just look for anyone with the professionally printed stuff. capitol has provided a few of us with additional materials, so just ask. more than likely, we'll have extras for everyone. i'll try to bring what i can from the hive.

the most important thing to remember is to PHOTOGRAPH YOUR PROMOTION. quality isn't the key, so phonecams are fine. just make sure you document what you're doing with photos. the more, the better.

try to hit up when and where you can. after the band has played / after the show is ended are crucial times of the night.

[Leavchip]

have a great time guys and bathrooms at the venues are the best place for promo material.. (they stayed up longer there on Sunday at NBT09 than any other place we put stuff)

Stickers on people worked really well too....
