(if not, we'll have autograph cards.)There will be drawings to win CDs - and in Helsinki & Aalborg, a pair of tickets to that day's GNR show as my personal guest.-----So who is all going?

makketue Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 (edited) Fuck I would love to go there:. But I have my graduation party same day, so I'm happy I'm able to attend the consert. And I live in 200km's away from Helsinki and I have to travell by train. Too bad I have no chance to win the competition Does someone have Bumblefoot's email? So I could try to ask about being able to attend the competition without going to meet n' greet. Edited May 25, 2010 by makketue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaramouche Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I'll make both of them I think. It's great that he do this, and I see why it's best to do it the same day as the gig. But for us who want to be in front row it couldn't be worse (you have to choose). Well... Will go for queuing from early morning in Bergen and Oslo, and then go to meet&greets in Helsinki and Aalborg and just hope to get as near the front as possible.

galina_rs Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 2 hours ago:Bumblefoot Facebook:Leaving for the airport in a few, woohoo! If I don't answer messages, it's because I'm staying off the computer as much as possible, and keeping my hands on a guitar as much as possible. Will update ya on Twitter, FB & my forum whenever I can... About not having meet-n-greets in Norway, Sweden & St. Petersburg... there's a lo...t of working together with local folks to solidify the when & where, transportation, making autograph cards & any promo materials... if they're not interested or drop the ball, it doesn't happen. The folks in Helsinki, Moscow & Aalborg were fantastic, they made it happen. I think for the giveaways we'll have each person write their name on a piece of paper and put 'em in a bowl, then I'll randomly pick names to win tix, CDs, whatever else... I'll see if I can throw together an informal one anywhere else, but it really needed to be done before I arrived. I won't have time or brain cells to put towards being an event coordinator, I'll be wrapped up in traveling, gigs, and all the unexpected mayhem that usually occurs, lol. While I'm on tour, my responsibility is to the audience, and I force myself to ease up and stay focused on the shows.If there's a way to do informal meet-n-greets where the preparations would be quick & painless, I'd love to do it. OK, got a plane to catch! See ya's soon!!Ron-------------------------------RE: `About not having meet-n-greets in ...

Scaramouche Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I can clean up in my garden for a mini gig if that's a good plan B. No problem (They're on their way, I think I'm in shock. I just realized I'm gonna see them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyDeeds Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 That's pretty cool. I'd do it if he did this in the US.When I saw them on the 2006 tour, the 'Foot jumped off stage into the crowd the second Paradise City was over and started taking pics with the crowd and signing autographs and chatting and whatnot. Does he still typically do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anahzul Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 The fans, who won the previous BBF's contests, loved those meet n' greet. It seems BBF is a very good host Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gunns5 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Ron is so fucking great with his fans, I know thats starting to sound like a cliche now, but im surprised the man just doesnt say 'fuck it, I want some me time on this tour'. He continually over excels himself and goes above and beyond whats really 'needed' which is rare for all the 'rock star' type people. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting the man yet, but I sure as hope to one day, he seems like one hell of a real chilled and down to earth guy that just loves to shoot the shit just for the fuck of it!
