One Tree Hill Pre-Announcement Pre-Setlist Party

[Shag On A Rock]

Wow, I'm not the only person?

I'm from the outback originally. We were up at 4:30am to do what needed doing before it became hot as hell and then would go inside for rest of the day.

Plus I have really pale skin which is not ideal for this country.

Hmmm yeah good point... just from my personal perspective I could never see the song in that light - it's so serious... but each to their own

Anyway, does anyone think an announcement tomorrow is likely?

 

[Shag On A Rock]

I reckon tomorrow. But whos tomorrow? Ours? or tomorrow in USA? ie almost the next day.

Being an albino, I am definitely not suited to living in Australia.

I just get up early because it's nice, especially in summer as - like you basically said - it's the most tolerable part of the day.

Yeah, exactly. I believe Earnie said 'Monday or Tuesday', but if it is announced on a US schedule, that could be as late as Wednesday.

Let's hope the announcement is local.

 

[Shag On A Rock]

I not going to buy the Sundry Slimes. I'm sure you're all devastated.

Realistically the news would be out in the East by now.

Looks like another day or two (or three) of waiting.

 

[DignityPassesBy]

fuck ... fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

 

[blueeyedgirl]

Does this mean I got up early (for me 8am on a Sunday is bleedin' dawn) to read 10 pages of NOTHING!!!!!!

 

[DignityPassesBy]

FUCK

 

[Axver]

This is painful.

Earnie, where are you? Can you help us at all?

 

[Shag On A Rock]

Yes. But it is a lovely morning, yes?

You can come to Pilates with me at 9:30am if you like?

It's gonna rain here today

I do not know of this thing you call "exercise"

 

[Shag On A Rock]

It's not raining here. Glorious blue skys today. Come on over. We can go and have icecreams on the beach

 

[blueeyedgirl]

Ice cream for breakfast

 

[kennerado]

Well, there in nothing in the Inside Entertainment section of the Herald Sun.

 

[Axver]

Damn them!

 

[Shag On A Rock]

No more news here.

I bought the bloody paper and theres nothing there that I can see. It's such a friggin rag I didn't read it thoroughly.

I had a thought. Perhaps Earnie works for the newspapers and has a cunning plan to get us to purchase more newspapers.

U2 dissapointment strikes the Aussies again...but only for another 24-48 hours

 

[timothius]

Shagger...

If they don't hit Perth will you be making the trip accross to Syd/Melb, or is that a stupid question?

I really do hope they hit Perth, really.

Plan A: U2 play Perth and I go to that concert

Plan B: U2 don't play Perth and I try and russel enough money to fly to Sydney.

It's all financial with me. I was off work for a year so I'm skint. But I really really want to see them. I missed out on Popmart, long story, so I have only seen Lovetown. I want to see a new fangled modern concert with pretty lights etc. I'll make it happen

Tim, you are welcome to email me if you like.

Email sent.

Ta

How come U2 are keeping this tour so closely secret? I know we're all talking about it but why hasn't it exploded over the media yet.

 

[fullautoreverse]

I can only think all plans are not 100% final either in Australia or in other countries that are a part of leg 4. They won't just release Aussie dates, it will be for all countries included in the leg..., or, some sort of final media package is being pieced in place to be released to generate hype across all aspects of media simultaneously...?

 

[Shag On A Rock]

Good point

I hope South and Central America and Japan are locked in. I'm not getting any more patient

 

[fullautoreverse]

it may well be venues outside of Australia that hold up an announcement now? It sounds almost certain dates are set in Oz..

 

[timothius]

Good point.

U2 may want it to look like a "major extension" of the Vertigo tour incompassing NZ/Aus/Japan and maybe South America... rather than a few dates tagged on the end for Sydney & Melbourne.

I like this calm before the storm, it's like the best kept secret.
