I haven't even thought about what I want signed by her. Maybe my copy of TAFWVG? What has everyone else had signed?

Also, I have two things I really want to get signed, just like you #7269. I am actually already fretting over which item I want to get signed most. Maybe we'll get lucky and she'll sign two items this VIP time round?

I think if you pulled both out and said you couldn't decide which one you want signed you might get lucky and get both.. She really is super sweet, so she very well might.

I got my book signed last tour, she seemed genuinely thrilled that I had it. So worth holding it the entire night as there was no way in hell I was going to let it go at any point.

Signing will probably depend on how rushed it is, if things go smoothly you might get more than one thing signed. I wouldn't expect more than two things though. Don't worry too much about what you want signed, I think you will find after the fact that just having one signature representative of meeting her will be awesome and anymore might be nice but not mean a whole lot.

I don't think i will get anything signed i already got 2 books and posters and stuff signed so..
I was gonna let her sign the Enchant Era Promotional card but due to unfortunate pets it was destroyed at fLee's house.

But now i just took that photo and got it printed on some regular postcards so I'm gonna try for her to sign some of those maybe.

WHat did you end up deciding was going to be your replacement, or did you go for a refund?

MissGoldfish · **Posted:** Thu Dec 01, 2011 3:15 pm

I went for the other item. It was a part of her tour costume in 2007ish hand made by EA, a brooch of some sort with a rat on it and stuff..
It was that or a refund in credits or money.. I spend about 60 dollars on credits which is only about 45 euros.
It looks really cool! I thought maybe i would go for the other card but alas that was also destroyed..
I was REALLY disappointed but glad that fLee offered me other items. Although i think they are not as rare.

I was particularly stoked to get a really cool enchant related item but oh well accidents happen.

I just hope she learned to not display the card so they can fall on the ground and stuff.

This question probably appeared before but...
Is the VIP the ONLY chance to get EA's autograph?

MissGoldfish · **Posted:** Fri Dec 02, 2011 2:12 pm

Yes, but you can also hang out at the back door or something or track down her tour bus and wait there for like 4 hours.
But i don't think it's appreciated anymore..

You could come early at the show and ask a VIPer to get it signed for you.
Most of the time she is really sweet and will be naughty as to sign multiple things.

The Scarlet Harlot · **Posted:** Fri Dec 02, 2011 2:21 pm

That's why VIP packages make me a bit sad. Used to be that waiting around after a gig for the artist was normal and fun; then a lot of people started selling VIP tickets and Silver/Gold/Platinum Experience tickets so a minority of people can meet and greet the bands/artists they idolise. I can't blame them (or rather their management/labels) for doing it in terms of the extra revenue they bring in, but it changed the way gigs work.

LadyCyanide · **Posted:** Fri Dec 02, 2011 2:26 pm

Another reason EA moved to doing VIP's was because it was more personal than an after show signing, and also as she became more popular her signings started becoming crazier and unsafe.

Also, as Miss Goldfish said, the bus incident may have turned her off having people wait outside her bus..

Ankh · **Posted:** Fri Dec 02, 2011 2:41 pm

^Yeah, I remember about that incident.
Well, that's too bad because the club is very far away from the downtown and it's not the safiest area in Warsaw...Maybe I will ask some VIPer to take my things to sign.
(Or I win a lottery and buy VIP ticket

)

IAmMarti · **Posted:** Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:06 pm

Hey this will my my first EA gig and I'm worrying about what to wear. I've read a couple of times that people dress up in corsets and dresses and people that have turned up in jeans and tshirt feel like a sore thumb. Whats the dress code like? I dont want to look silly.

I'm a little more nervous as I have bought VIP for Bristol and want to look my best.

Sorry if this has been asked before.

Spellbound · **Posted:** Tue Dec 06, 2011 8:27 pm

Wear whatever you like, but dressing up certainly makes things more fun. It isn't a big deal if you don't and you won't be getting any crap for not dressing up. With the variety at an EA concert it would take considerable effort to stick out enough to look silly.

CarnivalOfRats · **Posted:** Thu Jan 05, 2012 10:19 am

How many things does she sign? And how long does the VIP session last?

#7269 · **Posted:** Thu Jan 05, 2012 11:51 am

^ already answered in this thread

it was said to be 1-2 items is ideal and vip signing/meeting length depends on how rushed everything is
