  1. Looking at buying a couple shirts from the winter clearance sale. Anybody who bought the raglan long sleeve shirt, does it run true to size? Did it shrink? Wife is wanting one, but not sure what size to get.
  2. Yes. I sent in 2 identical photos, one for me and one for my brother. Gave them the name for each, but only 1 came back signed. They were kind enough to return both photos.
  3. The Vegas venue is a tricky one. If you're too far back on the floor it kind of sucks because it's not a graduated floor. If I can't be in the first 5 rows or so, I like to be up in one of the first side sections off the floor like Sec. 16 or 17. That's what I ended up with through the fan presale. It's where I last for the 2010 Time Machine tour show and it was killer. I'd also suggest checking with the box office day of the show as they may release unclaimed seats they reserved for their high roller players.
  4. I sent in two of the same photo I posted together, one for me and one for my brother. Only 1 came back signed (thankfully w/ my name). I'm told it's ill advised to send in more than 1 item. Divide multiple items up over multiple venues.P Yeah, it was my first time submitting anything and I didn't know multiple items was a bit of a no-no. I had submitted 2 of the same photo because my brother and I were both visible in the front row, so I thought it'd be cool to surprise him with a signed, framed, copy of the pic. Wasn't trying to get greedy or resell anything for a gain. Was nice that I did receive both of them back even if only just 1 of them was signed. They could have easily discarded the extra one.

  6. http://www.therushforum.com/index.php?/topic/76954-autographs/page__st__120#entry2771315 This what you're looking for?
  7. FYI, there are pairs of floor seats in Sec. D & E popping up now.
  8. I sat in sec. 17 at MGM in 2010 and they were great seats. Sure you aren't going to make that 2 second eye contact with any of the band members, but it was an incredible view of Neil playing. That's why I jumped on taking them again when they came up today.
  9. Pulled Floor D, Row 14 the first time. Went back and got Sec. 17, Row V. took those. I'd rather be slightly up off the floor than further back down ON the floor since it's not sloped.
  10. Couldn't get 2 for Chicago the instant it became available for Citi presale. Only thing it'd pull was 1 in sec. 309. "Membership doesn't have it's privileges" should be their motto.

  12. exact a little revenge on musictoday and when your stuff arrives, just call and tell them something was missing. I've done it a few times. They'll usually send you another for free. MusicToday is the most poorly run company I've ever dealt with. When you call them, it usually sounds like a group of people sitting around an apartment taking orders, kind of like the guys in Half-Baked. I use to order DMB stuff from them. Posters would come damaged because for $13 they'd ship it in a flimsy cardboard triangle tube that had 0% chance of making it to it's destination intact. And that's if they even sent you the right poster. Their shipping charges were outrageous. They'd have a $5 t-shirt sale on Cinco De Mayo, and then shipping on a single shirt would be $8-9.
  13. QUOTE (jasonw2112 @ Sep 24 2012, 04:45 PM) I sent an 8x10 photo to the the Columbus show, about 5 days in advance. It shows it was recieved in about a day. However I have not recieved it back yet, so maybe it's a case of snail mail! I live about 50 miles from Columbus, it should have showed up by now.... I didn't get my 8x10 back for almost 10 days after the show. I'd all but given up on it, but I'm thinking they may have taken it with them, signed it, and mailed it from a show or two after the one we were at. So don't give up hope.
  14. QUOTE (GotPeart @ Sep 24 2012, 10:55 AM) For those that sent items in for autographs - how far in advance of the show did you send those in? I sent mine on a Monday for a show on Thursday of the same week. I live 15 miles or so from the venue, so I knew it wouldn't take more than a day to reach the venue. I think the key is sending it to get their the day before the show so that the staff of the facility has time to deal with it rather than day of the show. And not to send it so early that it gets misplaced, forgotten, or lost altogether.
  15. QUOTE (Amy Farrah Fowler @ Sep 21 2012, 09:53 AM) Good to hear, Therm! Realize they only have so much time to devote to this stuff...maybe send the photo for your brother to another venue? I would imagine they would limit their time to one item, especially if there is a lot of stuff waiting for them. Oh I'm not the least bit upset that they only signed one of the two photos. I'm just eternally grateful that they even signed one of them and returned the other one with it. In fact, my brother told me not to bother sending it to another venue to try and be signed because he doesn't really get into collecting signatures. He's just happy to be in the photo, commemorating that great show.
  16. QUOTE (Amy Farrah Fowler @ Sep 20 2012, 04:32 PM)Give it a few more days. Good luck! Well, well, well....... I get home today to find my envelope back. They signed 1 of the 2 photos I sent them. I'd sent 2 identical photos and asked one to be signed to my brother Scott and one to me. They personalized one of them to me and left the other blank. Neil signed on one of his cymbals and the other 2 signed above it. They used black sharpie, so it's a little hard to see.
  17. Looks like I ain't gettin' sh!t back. Drats.
  18. QUOTE (SUBDIVISIONS @ Sep 18 2012, 03:25 PM) I saw a few weeks ago a couple of tickets for a meet and greet you could only buy 2 from a reseller 2,000 usd a piece! Are you nuts??? I couldnt sleep that night my older dream come true at the tip of my fingers but have to pay 4,000 USD to shake Mr. Lee blessed hand?' I am his most dear, devoted fan but I still have my head on my shoulders. I know it is worth it, and I can pay it, but I know the value of money Just 4000 bucks to shake hands, take a picture you might never see and kick out....hmmm no thanks I saw 2 people selling meet-n-greet passes on a local Indianapolis ticket broker site. One wanted $2300 each, and the other was $2500 each and both sellers made you buy 2. There is virtually nobody I'd pay that much just to meet. They'd have to resurrect some long ago dead person to get me to shed that kind of demp on meeting them. I can only imagine having shelled out that kind of money only to get about 20 seconds with them.
  19. what's the typical turn around time if you get something back?
  20. QUOTE (Barry @ Sep 15 2012, 01:19 PM) QUOTE (therm316 @ Sep 15 2012, 12:25 PM)Silly question, but did any of you that got your stuff back send a sharpie with it? I did it when I sent in my 2112 album because I wanted it signed in silver not black and I wasn't sure that they would have a silver sharpie...I got the album back and it was signed in silver so I was happy. I had considering doing that, had I sent a sharpie. The photos are dark in nature, so black ink won't show up well. But I'll be happy regardless just to get them back signed.

I did that the first time, but haven't bothered since. They get MANY sharpies from everyone doing this and never return them. Waste of money to include one in your package. Ok, good. I didn't send one in fear that when my envelope got ran through the USPS machines it would damage the contents. Hopefully the folks at the venue in Indy passed my photos onto Liam.
