June 24, 200818 yr i think angie was thinking of something a bit kinkier...:P me, i'm good with a handshake and a photo :D. haha, i just told my brother about how i entered this contest (because he'd be the one getting the other VIP pass if i win :D), and he got REALLY excited. after we freaked out for a few minutes about it, he put on the :angry: face and said "there BETTER be biddies there!" (for all of you who might not know, "biddies" is a slang and rather derogatroy term for "hot chicks"). i just about keeled over laughing. soo, if any girls around the age of 15 win...:P
June 24, 200818 yr Handshakes, autographs, pics? Depends on them. It's certainly touching distance.woo hoo, Collee get that bail money ready! :laugh3:
June 24, 200818 yr They set up a stage outside in between the NBC studio and the Dean & Deluca. You can see/hear from the street (and Dean&Deluca) without tickets. They go inside for interviews. Come back play a little more. The VIP area is on the side of the stage closer than the main crowd. The band will walk directly by this area to get inside. How close? Inches. **all this assumes it't the same layout as previous "summer concert series" things the Today Show has done. fine that's what i want to know,thanks.:)
June 24, 200818 yr I so hope I can go. I live in FL, but my dad works for the airlines and I fly for free whenever I want. I soooooo Hope i get to go.
June 24, 200818 yr Well I'll be darned. This would be totally mind blowing but I have no money to drive/fly to get there if I had won. $@@$^%#(##sgjsgkjshsgiruhg. Argh. Boo hoooooooooo. HAVE FUN WINNERS.
June 24, 200818 yr define "interact" :wink3: Like this?: or more like this?: or the preferred : :whip: Crosses fingers and toes for me and Chelsea. Love this....you're hilarious. Thanks for the good laugh!
June 24, 200818 yr I won tix to one of these things for Sting a couple of years back. While the number of songs will be few (4, 5 or 6 or so- only 2 or 3 go on air) I can assure you it is TOTALLY worth it. You get put in a section right next to the stage where they go in and out between commercials and interviews and you will get to interact with them (assuming they are willing). In our case with Sting, we got to get autographs and pics of him and all the band members, all signed my CD, and if you look carefully can find yourself on TV later. :) GL everyone. :D grrrrrrrrrrr just make me even more jealous about the whole thing why don't you :cry: :laugh3: :P

June 24, 200818 yr ^I think a lot of little old ladies would be THRILLED to know that 'biddy' means 'hot chick' now. That's news to me too,lol. I'd seriously like to ask one favour of anyone who wins and is involved in the CCC: If you have 2 seconds, let them know what the CCC has done (Not only HWSTW, but that WOULD be awesome!!). I know they'd be blown away if they knew.:) Even though I'm working that night, expect a PM soon, Ian!;)

June 24, 200818 yr even better than that, i reckon someone ought to take along a copy of HWSTW in case they can give it to them. slip a brief description of CCC in with it That would be amazing, but since it's currently not avail. for download (I'll fix that again soon) someone would have to either give up their copy or burn one, which would be ok with me if it's ok with the musicians...something tells me they wouldn't mind,lol. It would take too long to order from Carepress The real problem I have with just taking a burned copy is that they wouldn't be able to see the artwork, and it's as important as the music, imo. I was just dreaming aloud anyway. (But still..if there's a way, keep the CCC in mind, eh?;))
June 24, 200818 yr it'd work. not only did you get to meet the band. they now own your own personal copy of hwstw :D how can anyone resist?
June 24, 200818 yr Trouble is, I think we only sold a few copies, so it's hard to even guarantee the winners would own one. I know Angie has one, but I think we'd have to fight her for it, and I'm a pacifist,lol. As soon as a single drop of Jonny's sweat touched it, she'd be clinging to it for dear life!!:lol: (Am I wrong, Angie?;))
June 24, 200818 yr I have been a member of the CCC, but unfortunately haven't gotten around to purchasing a copy of HWSTW. Are they still on sale through one of the CCC board links? I'd be willing to purchase two, one for my girlfriend to give to one of the boys and another to have signed by the band. (They'll probably be sick of signing VLV and having a signed copy of HWSTW would be a good sig for the boards!)
June 24, 200818 yr Well since the CD isn't available anymore, I'll pick up two of the shirts from the store instead and try to have my girlfriend give Chris one and have the other one signed. Maybe we could come up with a short pamphlet describing CCC's efforts to slip into the shirt or something. Reading material for the boys on the plane would be nice...

I have the songs on my Ipod now anyway.
June 24, 200818 yr I ripped mine to my computer, so I could bring mine. However please know that if it comes between me touching Jonny and handing off the CD...you'll have to accept the fact that I will choose Jonny every time.
June 24, 200818 yr Author deadline for entries has been brought forward 5 hours to give a little more leeway for those needing to make travel arrangements. New deadline is 2.59pm EST (7.59pm BST) on Wednesday 25th June Still 28 hours to go to get your PMs in :)

You could squeeze his bum and then slip the CD in his back pocket... two for one!
June 24, 200818 yr You could squeeze his bum and then slip the CD in his back pocket... two for one!Or I could just continue to squeeze and use the CD to fight off security all ninja-MacGyver stylie. :sneaky:
June 24, 200818 yr Or I could just continue to squeeze and use the CD to fight off security all ninja-MacGyver stylie. :sneaky: Breaking news from NBC's Today Show: Crazed Coldplay fan strikes security with CD and tackles Jonny Buckland during a performance of Viva La Vida. *Camera pans to running view seen on the show Cops* "AHHHH... JOHNNY! Visit coldplaying.com! AHHHH!" NYPD officials have secured Rockefeller Plaza and are currently deploying several SWAT teams to diffuse the situation. Wow... I hope I am able to see something like that from you if I win...
