Hallefuckinglujia.

YO, EUROPEAN FLAG-BEARERS!!!

I'll be flooding your inboxes with some instructions, reminders, details, expletives, etc. today -- so be warned. Please do read through them as your tours of duty begin very very soon!

Thanks!

FYI to everyone else: I'll be dealing with the rest of the schedule soon, but obviously Europe must take priority.

DM..... so Stewart managed a little break........

Did you?

Waiting for the next round of instructions......

And changes....... (coz we keep mucking you about......)

Hey at work we have a special room called the reflection room.... it's soothing..... can I book it for you?

I've said it once..... and I'll say it again....

DM you have done a FAB job!!!

THANK YOU!!!!

Kimmy

:wink:

by **DirtyMartini** on 27 Aug 2007 17:21

Bah. Rest is for wimps. But thank you for the kind words, kimmy. (The reflection room sounds like I should be wearing a straitjacket somehow, though. Which is hitting a bit too close to home, methinks.)

And thanks to the incredible kimmy and mtobinjones, the Flag will be avoiding two rounds of postal service and making an extra show (for a total of 21 out of 26). Thank you, kimmy and mtj!

Unless one of you lovelies has an unfortunate polo accident, we should be pretty much squared away here. So here it is: the New and Improved -- yet again -- European Flag Schedule:

EUROPE! You have your instructions in your inboxes! Make us proud!

by **IndyGirl** on 28 Aug 2007 00:03

Wow, the flag is going to be flying proudly at 21 concerts on this leg. That is quite a marvel of scheduling. I'm sure Stewart will be excited to see it. Have a great time, European flag handlers

by **sockii** on 28 Aug 2007 00:27

Wow, I'm exhausted just reading that schedule. :shock:

Well planned, folks!

by **animal** on 28 Aug 2007 01:21

That is a thing of beauty <wipes tear from eye>

by **nancyrose** on 28 Aug 2007 01:25

Somehow, reading this beautious schedule, I'm reminded of that Dr. Seuess classic, Oh, The Places You'll Go! Our little flag is all grown up and touring Europe! I'm picturing it at all the "must-see" tourist spots...the flag at the Tower of London, the Eiffel Tower...the brothels of Amsterdam?!?!

Take lots of pictures...and don't forget to write!!
