Edit: Cuz DM is too stoopid to read before clicking on pretty pictures.

Very nice, Bella!


And thanks, falcon!

[DirtyMartini]

In the HOLY MOTHER OF CRAP Department, our resident loon Dietmar has added the Geneva show to his plate. As a result (look PFan!), the Flag will be able to do Vienna. Thank you, Dietmar!

While I'm here, I'm just going to add a generic Wembley step, since I know it'll happen somehow. BEFORE you people start jumping on to volunteer, STOP -- I'm going to wait to see who gets what seats, who hasn't had a turn, etc. Thank you.

Here it is: 23 out of 27 concerts in Europe:

[Dietmar]

policefan, send an e-mail to make sure we'll meet in Vienna...
Dietmar

[policefan]

Dietmar,

did you read the last sentence?



[quote="policefan"]DM, oh no!

there is no Flag for Vienna



JOURNEY 7: Geneva to Munich
After the Sept. 16 Geneva show, Giovanni transports the flag to Munich, where he hands it off to phaty.


STOP 7: SEPTEMBER 22 - Munich (phaty)

that's just too sad and I can't make it because I already went to Vienna this year for my grandma's birthday.[/quote]



Trust me, I would love to meet up with you. I am really pissed that I cannot attend the Vienna show. So when I saw, that no flag will represent this wonderful forum at the Vienna gig (me being Viennese but live in Vancouver) that made me very sad. Stewart won’t have a flag to point at. Even though I won’t be there but knowing that you will carry the flag, that makes me very happy!
Have a great time and I will be thinking of you!!

Or a bit of time in one of those autoclave machines that sterilizes tattoo needles and equipment.

[Moeskido]

Conroy, your boxers continue to disturb me. I need more wine.

[Dietmar]

policerule, yeah I read the German part. But I don't want to irritate others by long posts in foreign languages. so as you're not in Vienna anyway there's no need for a meeting point :(
dietmar

[policefan]

Dietmar,
I am looking forward to your Vienna review!
You may have to start to pump up your arm muscles a bit because you have a lot of flag holding to do

[DirtyMartini]

Because of seating locations, some assignments are being traded to make flag-spotting more likely. For ease of everyone’s brains –- particularly my own –- some hand-offs will change, but the major logistical issues will remain the same.

The incredibly selfless smudge is going to take over Twickers #2 duties, while Hannah is going to take Flag duties at Wembley instead. Plutonic and Takeshi will be taking over Flag duties at Cardiff, and kimmy will be waving the Flag later in Toronto instead.

Thanks, everyone.

One more time!

Hey Kate, I see you've got the flag at Twickers on the 9th - cool!!! I was shocked to see that Hannah had relinquished her grip on that beautiful bit of green fabric until I saw that she gets her mits on it for Wembley We'll be praying for good seats for Hannah on Oct 20th

[takeshi]

Pluto and me!!!!!!!
