IngievV Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I am not really willing to give up my spot even for 3 songs. That sort of thing has gone wrong far too many times for me. I'm sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaatje066 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Will there be a number-system again? At what time will people start queuing? So there probably won't be a number system, but at what time will people start q-ing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi:punk: So you're coming to Paradiso too! Great, love to see you again:boing: yeah, I would like to know the 'start-queueing-time' too. Then I know if I should go stand in line or that I could go to my hotel first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnaMariaPetra Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Juuust a little bit... (oops, I did it again )Ok, thank you:huglove: I am not really willing to give up my spot even for 3 songs. That sort of thing has gone wrong far too many times for me. I'm sorry. I understand both of you! I know it is asked before, but since you're there as 'press' can't you take your pics in a special 'press-area'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnaMariaPetra Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Are more people staying in a hotel after the concert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biekje Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Just rang Paradiso. There will be a seperate queue for press. They will let me in first. That's a relief! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christine Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I wouldn't advise discussing the "queuing up time" in the gig thread. If someone mentions X time then most people will turn up 2 hours earlier, I can guarantee it. Even if everyone respected the time and didn't turn up early then 25 of you will arrive at exactly the same time and how do you decide who goes first and who goes last? Biekje, what exactly are you asking of others? You said you are going to queue early so you will already be in the front row hopefully, no? Do you just need a bit of space to work? I guess all you can do is ask the people around you at the time since no one knows exactly where they will end up until they get to the stage.

Yes just needed some space for 3 songs so that I can take pictures from different angles. Will be gone after the 3 songs and go watch the gig from a distance. Still have Iceland to go to and enjoy a normal gig. I don't need to queue, as they will let the photographers in first, so I heard. I thought people might find it easier to give me some space, as they know me and can absolutely be guaranteed that I'll be gone after the 3 songs. If not, they know where to find me, to kill me loool:aah: Just asked for some understanding if I go through. But I guess I will be front row now anyway.

Your hotel looks really nice, and probably also not to far from Paradiso. Mine is, according to Google Maps, a 5 minute walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
