Right in my back yard... its about time :)

12-02-09, 01:03 PM
who wants to contribute to my airfare?? I want to go soo bad..

Have a great time guys. You deserve some JK love!
Awesome news for those in LA and as all of us Aussies know, you won't be disapointed!

I'm working on this right now! I could drive. I'm about 9 hours away. Flights will run me $200 to get there or gas will cost probably $150. I want to be there more than anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
Kim - momof2es
12-02-09, 01:49 PM
Drive and save the $50 and put it in a fund for my airfare.. I would drive if I could but STL is a bit too far from LA :)
Stephanie
12-02-09, 01:53 PM
Ya but I still have to pay for a hotel room Kim!! And BOOZE!!!
Kim - momof2es
12-02-09, 01:58 PM
I know.. but it was worth a shot.. LOL.. Let's just hope we both make it there.. I am not holding my breath though- I have not been lucky in the getting to see JK department..
Stephanie
12-02-09, 01:59 PM
Now, now Kim! Stop it with those negative thoughts! Where there's a will, there's a way!!!
I'm working on this right now! I could drive. I'm about 9 hours away. Flights will run me $200 to get there or gas will cost probably $150. I want to be there more than anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
It's all worth it for long trips and money, i've been doing it quite a bit lately.. You can do it!!!! :D
YAY!
You'll have a blast! ;)
Stephanie
12-02-09, 02:59 PM
Ok it's more like 13 hours driving I guess. I'm still holding out for possible cheap airfare!
This is sooooooooo exciting!!!!! :squee: :squee: :squee: :squee: :squee:
I also am trying to find a way to make this work. Chase has a big, expensive educational trip to Washington DC coming up, but if I can find someone to share hotel expenses with, I may be able to swing it. I did find some reasonable airfare prices, so maybe...
If I do go, I was thinking of flying in on Saturday and using Sunday to blast the area with flyers and such. It is extremely important that the Troubador is totally packed for this show, so we MUST do our job as street teamers and get the word out!!!!
If anyone is seriously thinking about going and would be interested in splitting some costs, let me know.
Stephanie
13-02-09, 02:05 AM
I am Joyce! There are a couple of us chatting about it!
Have a blast US girls...really excited for you. It's gonna be a ripper of a gig to be at!!
Kim get that bloody sign out now, I demand it!! ha
Tim will you be going?
I hope you all can wrangle it somehow....it's been so long for you all!

LOL Addy!! If it comes down to that I will.. I have the first step taken care of , I have the dates off work.. I would have to fly in Monday morning and leave Tuesday afternoon but I can swing that.. I have a roommate for the night.. now I just have to get there.. so things are looking up that I MIGHT and I am still stressing MIGHT right now finally go to my first JK show!!!! :flirt:
I'm so excited for you US girls. I hope all of you can make it to the show...the boys have come so far...it's a show not to be missed.
Joyce, if there's a way to get all the girls together, you will have no problem with the costs...even if it means sharing beds so it's cheaper for you, I say do it! lol.
I can't wait for this gig...I can't wait to read all the reviews and see all the photos of the night. Please continue to keep us updated along the way because I love reading the excitement of planning on here.
So far, I have 2 people, Steph Reed and our old friend Kellee (Diva), who have confirmed they will be at the show. Both are from the area.
I know Kim and Stephanie are possibilities and I hope things work out for you girls.
I am still unsure. They want Scott to work out of town that week, so we have a lot to discuss.
If you are absolutely confirmed, please let us know. It would be awesome if flyers can be posted in the area the day before and day of the show, so if you will be there and are interested in doing so, again, please let us know. I assume we will have the flyers available online and those wanting to help post them can print them and have copies made. I need to check with Adelle to confirm she will be designing the flyer.
Thanks girls!!! :)
Not sure about a flyer, Joyce but Harvey will be printing up colour posters that he'll have printed. There may be business cards involved....that's been the way to go with all the instores. I'll let you know once I hear more.
mands:)
13-02-09, 09:24 AM
I'm getting so excited for you guys! It will be an amazing show...the boys are just on fire (great song too haha) at the moment. I really hope you can make it Joyce.
Keep us all updated. We're gonna need lots and lots of pics :)

I'm trying to see if I can get any of my friends to carpool with me. I would love to go!
Ok it's more like 13 hours driving I guess. I'm still holding out for possible cheap airfare!
Airfare can be somewhat better if you book in advance! :) Fingers are crossed for you! If I drove I would go for it so I can meet some of you US girls and see the guys.. :sob: I checked and it's only.... 38 hours of driving to get there.. Oh god.. I think I need to get a passport so one day I can fly there..
Cheers..
"Go Girls. Go Girls. Go Girls"
So excited for you all...If you can possibly make it work, you so won't be disappointed!!
Go for it!!
Stephanie

I'm trying to see if I can get any of my friends to carpool with me. I would love to go!
Holy Crap!! Drive across country!! Better start soon the show is in like 2 1/2 weeks!!
Not sure about a flyer, Joyce but Harvey will be printing up colour posters that he'll have printed. There may be business cards involved....that's been the way to go with all the instores. I'll let you know once I hear more.
Thanks Adelle!!! I was just going off of what we did 2 years ago when the guys were here. I will be anxious to hear what Harvey has to say and exactly what he wants us to do.
And thanks girls!!! I want to be at this show more than you can imagine, but my hubby and son come first!!! They have been more than patient and understanding of all the time I have devoted to JK and the ST for the last 2 1/2 years, so their wants and needs, as well as finances, have to be factored into the "Will Joyce get to see JK" equation. I will let you all know what I decide. :)
Stephanie
14-02-09, 02:11 AM
So, the tickets aren't listed on the Troubadour site or the Ticket Master site! Does anyone know what's up yet?
Steph, I still know nothing. :shrug Unfortunately, I have no way of contacting anyone that would know, ie. Harvey. Maybe Adelle can find something out when she logs back in.
I am soooooo sorry, as I know you wanted to get your tickets the minute they went on sale today. I wish I had more info for ya. :(

14-02-09, 05:20 AM
I wonder if this a question to be directed to the venue, or to Ticketmaster. They might have more info on that.
marramarie
14-02-09, 05:49 AM
They were up on the site yesterday. They are actually still there, http://www.troubadour.com/eventdetail.php?id=1152If you are buying tickets directly from them you have to d/l their flyer and give them your information including your credit card. Its all legit, done it before.
Jenn-a-lalala
14-02-09, 06:44 AM
Thanks marramarie. The Fax option looks like a good one - you will save a whole bunch of Ticketmaster fees.
Kimberly
14-02-09, 07:37 AM
Heya guys and girls -- long time no see!
I'm going and hope to see a lot of you there AGAIN -- man, it's been a long time between shows for us --
Here's a tip about tickets. Download the fax form from the Troubadour website and fax it in. I've never ever had a problem faxing orders to the Troub whereas Ticketmaster is an evil nightmare. Another benefit is the Troub charges just $2 handling per ticket versus the-sky-is-the-limit at TM.
I just got a call back -- my tickets are processed! Yay me!
I just LOVE seeing familiar faces (avatars hehe) and knowing you'll be getting to see JK. How exciting!!
Thanks for the ticket info girls!!! :)
Kim, I am glad to hear we will have another ST vet at the show. Would you be interested in helping promote the gig???
Hi Everyone,
I just joined the forum recently, although I’ve been a fan for a while. The announcement about the LA show has me super-excited, because there are only so many times you can listen to snippets of the 5 songs on the JK web site and watch the You Tube clips of their performances before a girl needs something more. It must be so great to hear them on the radio!
I’m seriously considering flying in from Chicago for the show. The airfare isn’t too bad, and I found a hotel with relatively reasonable rates that’s walking distance from the Troubadour. I think that my flight would get in just a couple hours before the show, but, if there is anything I can do to help out with promotion, please let me know. It would be great to meet up with some of the other fans from the forum!
-Jen
JennL you're awesome!!! Please get yourself there to see the boys....they will utterly steal your heart and your rockin boots!! ;)
For the offer of help, you're the best. I'm sure the US girls will find something for you to do lol.
Enjoy the show and welcome to the JK Forum! :)
Kimberly
14-02-09, 04:07 PM
Thanks for the ticket info girls!!! :)
Kim, I am glad to hear we will have another ST vet at the show. Would you be interested in helping promote the gig???
Hey Joyce! Of course I'll be happy to do what I can to help. I now have a sick old person at home so I'm somewhat time-constrained, and I hate to make promises I can't keep -- but let me know what needs doing and I'll try to work it out.
Jenn, welcome! Are you talking about the Beverly Terrace? I've seen it -- it's cute. My friend who stayed there liked it (and she is fussy). It is great value for money as hotels in that area tend to be uber pricey.
marramarie
14-02-09, 04:26 PM
Anyone who goes to this show will love it. There isn't a really bad place to stand, and if you want a good view there are seats up above. Its an amazing gem of a place to see shows.
Welcome JennL!! This ride is gonna be fun, so hold on love!!!
Girls, thanks so much for your offers of help!!! We will definitely take you up on it!!
Kim, I totally understand your commitments and would ask you to help only if they allow you to, as the person you are caring for definitely takes preference. If you don't have the time, don't you dare feel guilty cause it would break my heart if you did. :-*
I am not sure at this point exactly what Harvey will need of us, but I will post it as soon as I do. Please just keep checking in as we get things coordinated...Thanks!!!! :)
Hi Ladies,
Thanks so much for the warm welcome! I’ve heard so much about how kind-hearted the boys are, but, something should be said for the fans as well.
I am officially California dreaming! I booked my flight and hotel this morning. Kim – yes, I’m going to stay at the Beverly Terrace. Thanks for putting my mind at ease, since the reviews I’ve read on the web aren’t that great. I’m glad it’s so close to the venue, since the idea of driving in LA has me shaking in my boots a little bit.
Addy – I’m not sure I can wait 16 days to have my heart officially stolen in person, but, I’ll try my best to be patient! :)
As the dates get closer, please let me know if there is anything I can do on the ground.
Have a good weekend everyone,
Jen
Jen, when will you be arriving in LA????
I am looking at hotels and airfare as we speak, so maybe...
Hi Joyce,
Not until 4:45 on Monday afternoon (I have my fingers crossed that there aren't any flight delays). I was thinking of using Super Shuttle to go back and forth from the airport, and by staying at the Beverly Terrace (rooms are $139/night) I wouldn't have to worry about renting a car to get to the Troubadour.
Since I'm coming alone, it would be great to have some friendly faces to meet up with!
OK Jen...Thanks!! I am just trying to get it straight in my head who will be where, when. This is my first show as the leader of the US side of the ST, so I am feeling my way through it.
Please just keep checking in. I am sure we can arrange a meet up with some of the other girls, closer to the show when everyone has definite plans.
I am soooo excited for you!!!! :squee:
Thought I would share this. This is a Ramada Inn, on Santa Monica Blvd., .8 miles from the Troubador, with rates as low as $116/night. Outside doesn't look great, but the interior looks nice...

Enjoy the independance of your heart while you can, Jenn....there's no hope later lol!
Girls you can help majorly online (only if you're comfortable with it of course) by posting the show banner on your pages and alerting your friends or people you know in the LA and outlying areas about the Troubadour show.
Harvey's main focus is filling the venue. Yes there may be street teaming there but priority at the moment is getting the word out however you can and getting numbers to the Troubadour.
If you choose to here is the code for the banner, a large or marginally smaller one.

If you have never been to Los Angeles you might want to rent a car. Even for one day. Taking the super shuttle is great, but you don't want to be stuck in your room all the time. Taxies are costly in LA, and if you want to see other places you might want to invest in a car. I don't know how long you are staying in town. I live in the part of WEHO you can walk to everything, but when you get closer to the Westside/Beverly Hills area its not as easy to walk to everything! Just a suggestion!
445 that is the start of rush hour traffic. So I change my earlier thought, take super shuttle for your trip to the hotel, but try renting a car for other days you are in town!

My hope is still to get there, I do have the time off work.. However we were informed that there are going to be major budget cuts and position eliminations at the bank I work at. Without going into details, there have been a few weird things happen that have me concerned for my position. So cross your fingers that come tuesday I will still have a job.. until then I can't make any plans.. :sob: If I dont make it I will be with you all in spirit..

And Toby....I will be taking you up on that hug offer!!!!!!!!!

16-02-09, 08:26 AM
!!! Hiya JK and Toby fans !!!
I'm totally new on here, but not a new fan of Toby or JK...
I might know a few of you from other boards ?
hmmmmmmmmmm?
I think that I might have met a few of you the last time
that the guys played at the Troub. as well.
TOBY~ You owe me some Jager dude!
( that sh*t is wicked good )
Mr. Hot Ass, I am 99% sure I will be making the trek over from the east coast, so you better start stretching and loosening up for hug detail!!! :gigg:
xOxOxOxOxO
Kim, I so hope everything works out for you and that you still have a job. Please keep us updated, OK???
Girls, I am looking at the Ramada Inn. It is less than a mile away, so if I do stay there, we will all be close and able to meet up. :nod:

Fingers crossed! I miss you! *hugs* I'm for sure there now, arranged my sked and meeting updates/check-ins how I needed to. Hope you and Tina can come. :)
Kim, fingers crossed for you. And big hugs. The uncertainty is what's the most stressful (had two rounds of that in 2008). Just one day at a time.
If you have never been to Los Angeles you might want to rent a car. Even for one day. Taking the super shuttle is great, but you don't want to be stuck in your room all the time.

Thanks for the tips. I wish I could turn this into a vacation, it would be great to escape the Chicago winter for a bit, but, even after changing my flight so I get in a little earlier on Monday afternoon, I have to turn around and head out again on Tuesday. It's going to be a long day, but, if Toby is offering hugs, then I'm sure it will be well worth it.:)
Enjoy the independance of your heart while you can, Jenn....there's no hope later lol!
Between you and me, I think it’s already a hopeless case!:gigg:
I was running some errands on Michigan Avenue yesterday and walked by this huge group of tourists that each had on a matching scarf. I had to do a double-take, because the symbol on the scarf looked familiar to me, and then I figured it out. They were from Wales and the scarves were all printed with the Welsh flag. Of course I only know this because of Toby’s tattoo! I took it as a sign that playing hooky from work for two days and flying half-way across the country to see my favorite band was definitely the right decision. That’s not too much of a stretch, is it? And, Toby, thanks for the geography lesson!
I bought my ticket on the Ticketmaster web site yesterday, since my fax machine has been pretty cranky recently. They have the event listed as “June Kartel.” Is there a way we can get this fixed?
Stephanie
16-02-09, 03:28 PM
Hey Joyce...I think we may be staying there too. After looking into a couple places I think it may be the best choice for us to keep the cost down and have a little bit more spacious of a room. The Hotel Beverly Terrace looks great but I took a virtual tour of the room and they are TINY!! With 4 people....no thanks!! See you there everone!!
!!! Hiya JK and Toby fans !!!

Hi M~Fabby, I recognise you from way way back in the day haha. One of the first few sightings of Toby out after rssn...not sure if it was the Viper or not. Maybe earlier.
Welcome aboard!
How crazy is it, and how bloody cool is it that two countries are pumped with excitement that they'll be seeing JK within a fortnight of each other.
I love seeing the excitement and the boys getting the love.. Makes me so happy.

I love seeing the excitement and the boys getting the love.. Makes me so happy.
It's unreal and amazing...and what is really weird is that when I read this thread I think I am more excited for the US show than for my own. It seems like everyone has been waiting for so long.....The anticipation is SO exciting!
Yee-haaa!!! Rock on!! URRU

How crazy is it, and how bloody cool is it that two countries are pumped with excitement that they'll be seeing JK within a fortnight of each other.
I love seeing the excitement and the boys getting the love.. Makes me so happy.
Couldn't agree more Addy. Whenever I see the flyer, or the boys status's I get all giddy and excited for the girls. I hope to god I cross paths with the boys when I head over there later in the year. I don't know what I'd do with myself if I didn't only get to see the boys in the States but also got to meet all the amazing Street Teamers who live over there :) :)
Hi everyone, been a long time. I'm ready to get some streetteaming going. I would love to take some flyers out in the area, but It'll cost too much for me to print it myself...prices of ink are outrageous! Can anyone print those at a cheaper price? I'll check with the hubby about finances on chipping in.
Hi Anna!! :wave: Welcome back!!!
As for flyers, thanks so much for the offer...We may just take you up on that. I need to have a chat with Juke's manager to see exactly what he wants done as far as STing goes. Just check back here, if you will, and I will post the info as soon as I hear.
Thanks!!! :)

Hi M~Fabby, I recognise you from way way back in the day haha. One of the first few sightings of Toby out after rssn...not sure if it was the Viper or not. Maybe earlier.
Welcome aboard!
:nod:
Ladyevs!
Yes, I was at the Viper...That's where I must have seen you too!
Have you been to many of the California shows?
I've seen Toby out and about, more than a few times after the show,
but I haven't seen the band perform in a long while.
I am SO READY!
I've also got some choice locations that I've done LA promo, and when
given the go-ahead, I can surely get some flyers out there.
How crazy is it, and how bloody cool is it that two countries are pumped with excitement that they'll be seeing JK within a fortnight of each other.
I love seeing the excitement and the boys getting the love.. Makes me so happy.
Yes. Has been along time for the US and for us all to see the guys with in two weeks of each other is Great!
And to all those in the US, you WILL Not be disapointed, the guys are on fire and just get better and better!!
OK girls, I got word from Harvey...He does want us to distribute flyers for the show. To help with costs, he has asked Adelle to put 2 flyers on one page. He then wants us to print them, in black and white, on colored paper. Then, they can be cut in half and distributed.
Since ink is expensvie, the best thing, in my opinion, is to copy 1 from your computer and then take it somewhere to have copies made. This is what I did last time, and it didn't cost much at all, and doing it on colored paper was only slightly more. The black and white flyer will be posted as soon as Adelle puts on the finishing touches.
Anna, will this work for you??? It would be awesome if you could hand flyers out this weekend as we discussed.
Anyone else who wants to help with flyers, please post it here. If you are flying in Sunday, like me, and want to help, we can do flyers Sunday evening and Monday morning. Get involved...you will have fun and make great friends!!!
Harvey also asked that we email the Troubadour flyers to any and all friends in the LA area. If you know peeps in the area, could you take a couple of minutes and shoot an email their way???
Just save the banner to your computer and then add it as an attachment to your email. Don't forget to include this link for the Troubadour...

ONLY 13 MORE DAYS!!!! :squee: :squee: :squee: :squee:
I'll get the poster up soon, Joyce, have many pressing tasks on at the moment.
One request, can you leave the graphic on the JK server and not in your photobucket? The JK server is much more reliable if people are tempted to copy the link and repost it.
Also the smaller banner may be more suitable for emailing.
http://www.jukekartel.com/images/banners/troub300.jpg
Sounds good Joyce. Will wait for Adelle's new flyer. As long as it's not raining this Saturday, we're going to hit the surrounding establishments around the Troubadour. Anything else you need, let me know, I will try to help as much as I can.
Wonderful, Anna! Thank you. I'll get the poster link up within the next 24 hours. Right now I'm getting some shuteye :)
Thanks so much Anna!!! We will keep in touch. :)
Stephanie
18-02-09, 02:58 AM
I'll be there and I know of at least 4 more of us that will be there Sunday Joyce. Could you pm me your details...flight times and hotel, etc. Then we can figure out when to hook up!! I will definately get some flyers printed off before I leave for LA!
Still haven't made my reservation although I plan to do it today. I will let you know when I do. Thanks!!! :)

One request, can you leave the graphic on the JK server and not in your photobucket? The JK server is much more reliable if people are tempted to copy the link and repost it.
More reliable, just be cautious about the amount of data transfer if the file is large, which the poster-sized one might be if at a higher DPI. There was always a concern about videos and large-res images and exceeding the amount of monthly data transfer for the server. I can see about limits in other services that are not photobucket if this becomes an issue, to help.
Glad you are doing a B&W version, I was about to offer before I read through the whole thread, since red backgrounds and lettering tend to print out horribly in B&W if not converted to B&W and tweaked. :) Which I'm sure you know from all the Oz gigs, Adelle.
M~Fabby
18-02-09, 07:11 AM
Thanks (((Ladyevs)))
I can print some B&W's out on color paper.
There are some very striking neon colors ( brights )
that work very well. Just buy the variety pack, and go to town
at the local copy center.
Also, it might be cool if a few FULL COLOR ones are provided to the venue in advance,
for posting in their display ( out front and in the entryway ).
I'm willing to get some there this Weekend as well as a few offsite places where musicians, and enthusiasts congregate....
Music equipment stores and shops ( IE: Amoeba Music has a big POSTER ROOM for artists to post their upcoming gigs )

My Favorite place in LA love Amoeba when I was there for RSSN I needed a wheelbarrow coming home from there. Its great to see all the old faces popping up. I spoke to Toby last night they are really excited about heading back to America. If this show is a success expect many many more shows there!!
M~Fabby
18-02-09, 08:00 AM
Thanks for that (((Fulldrive)))!!!
When you post there, you have to keep posting every few days...the place is so popular that other posters just SEEM to get posted over your own.
No worries...I'm diligent when it comes to great music!
Are you in the area?
Did you go to the RSSN SHOWS, or the TAPINGS at CBS Studios?
* Perhaps we've met as well...
( I saw Toby for the first time at the very first taping at CBS )
Amoeba is the last GREAT record store in the LA area, and I've seen some very cool in store performances there as well....

That would be an amazing show to do. It would be an amazing show that's for sure. It would also be a way to get word out again on Juke in the LA area since its been so long since they have been here. Us locals are thrilled they are coming back since its been so long.
I have a friend who works at Aomeba, I can ask her who the contact is for shows if you want me too.

This is such an important show for JK and it's looking great numbers-wise. With the US ST now in the capable hands of Joyce I know you'll all do an admirable job with everything.
Joyce, we're limited to location and online promotion but if there's anything we can do from this end to help, don't hesititate to say the word.

That sounds fab Melinda!!! Slap them babies anywhere and everywhere you think will be beneficial.
I will be flying in Sunday, early afternoon, and plan to do some flyer posting that evening and Monday morning as well. We will get times and meeting places organized for those wanting to help, a little closer to the day.
For now, anyone outside of LA, please please send emails to any contacts you have in the LA area. We need the locals out in full force to fill the joint.
Is it just me or can you all also feel the excitement in the air???

Adelle I'm a bit of a band forum tart and let me just say several girls are now converted to JK fans on the Bon Jovi forum :whist:

Girlfriend, you do not know how happy I am that you are gonna be there. You owe me a shot and I owe you a massive hug for believing in me when many others still don't!!! We will hand out flyers until there is no one else to give them to!!
I can't wait to see and/or meet all you girls!!! :D
Girls, Adelle now has the flyer ready and it is gorgeous!!! It is to be printed on A4 paper, which I believe is standard 8x11. Again, if you can print one and then have it copied on colored paper, it will make the flyers more noticeable. Also, I know it is a given, but don't forget to cut them in half before distributing, to get the most bang for your buck. Let me know if anyone has questions...Thanks!!! :)

Sorry I can't help more ahead of time but I'd already booked a spa weekend with my girlfriend before I found out about the show. Don't hate me because I'll be getting a poolside pedicure Sunday afternoon LOl!
I will be working in the area Monday and will be available for any 'day of' flyering.
Just let me know when and where - I'll be there!

Hello everyone! Its been a bit of a break from the forum for me but I am so excited to be headed to the Troub and to hear the new tunes. I know this live show will kick some major arse.
Looking forward to seeing old friends, meeting some new ones I have been chatting with online for along time now and trying out my new camera on some performance shots.
I absolutely cant wait and I should be there midday Monday so can flyer or do anything needed, just let me know. I'll print some myself to take and check back here to see what the plan is. I'd head up Sunday but have a wedding to attend at night on Sunday.
Super stoked to hear some new Juke! Cheers!

Did all the MySpace commenting happen, Shaz? I was curious because I had mentioned last week that I was available to comment on Saturday but no one was ever in touch so assume that means all is good? My time is lacking sometimes because of work but will help where I can.
I believe it's pretty much all done Jenn...I've been lacking in a computer the last few days at home and shouldn't even be on here now (I'm at work and have been barred!!!!!), but will finish it off tonight.

Melbourne JK Fan
20-02-09, 10:18 PM
I have a friend who lives in LA, so of course I suggested she catch JK @ The Troub, and take as many friends as she can gather. She lived here in Melbourne for 3 years so is very keen to revisit her Aussie connection.
Here is Casey's reply: LOL. oh I'm in. You know I support Aussies 100% It has nothing to do with their good looks.. wink wink
Jenn, you know I sooooo appreciated your offer to help with MS comments, but without the spreadsheets, I was unable to assign anything to anyone. :shrug
Again, thanks to Shazz and Anita for all the hard work they have done. It is appreciated more than you know!!! :-*
Melbourne JK Fan, thanks so much!!! You did exactly what we need, which is peeps to reach out to friends and family in the LA area and tell them about the show. Great job!!! :)
Kellee, welcome back love!!! I can't tell ya how much I have missed you around here. I am soooooo excited to finally meet you!!!! :hug:
As for the flyers, please do check back. I figure it is best to make plans after everyone knows for sure when and where they will be, rather than do it know and have to change it and someone potentially miss the change.
Also, at some point, we will need to exchange cell numbers so we can communicate once we get to LA. If you are always gonna be in a group, just one number for that group will be all that is needed. And, of course, I will give mine to anyone that wants it, but for privacy and safety purposes, it needs to be done in a PM. Thanks!!!
As for our countdown...

There's a facebook group called Australians in LA and I msged the guy the other day to see if I could post on his wall with the gig details. He said he was more than happy to create an event, sending invites out to his 500+ members! Love those numbers!

Stephanie, did you girls decide to go with the Ramada Inn??? That is where I am staying. Someone asked me who has rooms reserved there and at the Beverly Terrace and she is trying to decide which to cancel. If most peeps are staying at the Ramada, that is where she is gonna stay.

JK IN LA IN 9 MORE DAYS!!!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/trybaloak/Smilies/019-Party-Emoticonycom.gif
Are these like the longest days ever or what?!?! They seem to just drag on and on and on and on...
For those who are interested...My flight is set to land at LAX at 12:45 p.m. Sunday. I fly out on Tuesday at 12:15 p.m. I will probably try to catch a quick nap Sunday after checking in at the Ramada, as I will have to be at the airport between 4:30 and 5:00 a.m. Sunday morning, here in Raleigh, to catch my flight out.
What I am thinking right now, is that those of us who will be there can meet Sunday evening, do some flyers, grab dinner, and let whatever happens happen. We will nail down a time later.
If you don't receive my cell # in the next few days and would like to have it, let me know. I am programming everyone's into my phone and trying to send that person mine as I go along.
HAVE A FUN AND RELAXING WEEKEND ALL!!! :D
Stephanie
22-02-09, 01:08 PM
Joyce, you should compare flight times with Denise! I think they are arriving about the exact same time as you at LAX! You could all meet up in the airport and then come and meet me at the hotel!!! I get in earlier that day and I'm flying into Long Beach airport and as of right now Kimberly is picking up, unless something changes with her mom.
why do I have to be so damn broke?? I would totally fly across the country to see JK FINALLY... guess I will have to keep waiting.. it's already been a few years whats a little more time.. :)
Unfortunately, ditto! Sure wish I could be there. I look forward to all the pics and reviews that'll roll in afterwards.

Still doesn't feel quite real yet!!
WOO HOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Roll on March 2nd. Its going to be so so so sososososoossoos awesome.
Quick question.....are we handing out something at the Troubadour with JK's info?
Quick question.....are we handing out something at the Troubadour with JK's info?
Hold tight on that question, Anna. I'll check if more graphics are to be done and get back to you.
I know the girls have organised to do a flyer drop before the show with this flyer:
http://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/slx3f8 (http://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/slx3f8)
Will let you know as soon as I hear anything.
Adelle :)
Anna, no there won't be any handouts of any material required at the Troubadour show. The main work involves handouts of flyers before the show, directing people to the show. See Joyce about that, she has it all covered.
Quick question.....are we handing out something at the Troubadour with JK's info?
Hey Anna!!! Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I know Adelle answered your question, I just thought I would elaborate...
In the past, Juke promo merch was passed out at shows mainly when the boys were a support act and our mission was to get their name out there and people to their websites. For this show, the boys are headlining and the people are there to see them, so it is likely they know about Juke Kartel and have all their info.
As for flyers, we plan to distribute them Sunday evening and again on Monday morning/afternoon. We are also planning to get together for dinner Sunday evening and possibly Monday before the show, but we will just have to see how things flow on Monday. I will be spending 7-8 hours on an airplane on Sunday, so I may need to take a few to rest before we venture out. I will PM you my cell number and you can reply with yours so we can keep in touch once I am in LA and away from the computer.
Thanks girl!!! If you have anymore questions or concerns, please let me know!!! I can't wait to meet you!!:D
A reminder about flyers...Harvey prefers we print them in black and white, on colored paper...the brighter the better, I would think. Also, don't forget, when you are deciding how many you need, you have 2 flyers/page. :)
As for the countdown...

Thanks Lady Evs and Joyce. The hubby and I are definitely going on Sat to give out flyers and I've told every friend I know to spread the word about JK. I'll pm you my phone number again, Joyce. I pm'd it about a week ago, but just in case. Can't wait to see the boys perform!!!
You're more than welcome, Anna. Have a lovely time at the show and before, catching up with everyone. I'm Adelle btw :)

Hey girl!! You are more than welcome. I don't know how I missed your number before, but it is now programmed into my phone, so we are good.
Thanks so much for doing flyers Saturday!!! It will be great to hit peeps in that area, as they would be more likely to venture out Monday as well.
See ya in a few days!!! :wave:
All you US girls, goodluck with the flyer drop, it'll be nice to see the US machine forging ahead once again. Hope you all have an amazing time seeing JK. I really am excited to hear your reactions on their style now...knowing what you can expect.
This show is so very important for JK and aside from their own incredible input, majorly dependant on numbers to the gig.
Anyone, anywhere....any opportunity you get to throw the details of this show out to the public please do so. Personal emails to your mates, bulletins, blogs, notes, twitters, status quotes whatever it takes please get behind our boys and show them the love they've always had from us.

Argh I am so frustrated that I can't be there. I would be canvassing LA like a madwoman. Not only have I never been able to see a JK show I have never been part of actually pavement pounding street teaming.. I am going to be majorly depressed on Monday night and even though I am 2 hours ahead of LA I expect phone calls or texts- please. I am begging.. you don't want this to be me:sob: do ya?? LOL
Seriously I know that you girls will do an amazing job and the place will be packed and then Juke will do what they do best- rock the shit out of everyone!! :)
OK girlies...got my flyers done today and they look great with neon paper. They are so bright, people won't be able to miss them.
If there is anyone that hasn't given me their cell # and wants me to have it, you need to send it tonight or tomorrow. I have to get up at 4 am Sunday morning to get to the airport for my flight out and I won't have computer access after tomorrow.
I am really excited and know we will have a blast!!!! :D
Can you believe we will be in LA rockin' out with JK in just 3 short days?!?!?!?!
