and besides its better to go see em and stalk em than the internet i mean ummm....nothing lol Yeah, go see a show. And then follow them home and stalk them and watch them from across the street in your totally non-conspicuous cable tv van.. Oh, and don't forget your night-vision goggles..
Oh crap.. Sorry.. I already have my cable van parked across the street.. Uhm.. Maybe get a milk truck? No, that's what I used to stalk Elvis.. So it's a bit outdated.. Plumber van.. Yeah, that'll work..[/font][/size]

I wish I could steal fat mike...I've always wanted to sit down and have a conversation with him. Instead of him giving me a hug running to do a soundcheck and then being obnoxious to everyone the rest of the night

Yeah, I know everything about how to stalk and not get caught. I mean, ANYONE can stalk someone, but the important thing is for them to not know you're doing it.. And you definitely need to go with a van/truck that no one will bother you in. So don't do pizza or ice cream. Maybe you should put some weird kind of graphics on there that doesn't clearly state what kind of business it is. That way no one will bother you at all.[/font][/size]
Disclaimer: Again, I have to say.. Surely you know that I'm totally kidding, right? I feel the need to keep repeating this because I feel creepy even SAYING some of this stuff..

Ok kids, listen up. People in famous rock bands with brand new amps are very very busy and, depending on just how big they are, they could potentially have thousands of crazy fans sending them emails, myspace messages, IMs, etc... THEY DON'T HAVE TIME TO SIT AND REPLY TO ALL OF THOSE! Would you??? Believe me, they appreciate how much you love them, but they can't reply to that many messages! Now, in FW's case, they aren't necessarily huge superstars, so it's not as difficult to talk to them, but they still aren't going to have time to reply to every message they get. Just try to put yourself in their shoes... I mean, Jeff once told me that he gets on the order of 100 or so messages on his myspace every time he logs in. Would you feel like sitting for 5 hours and replying to all of those individually? Especially when you have a busy tour schedule/recording schedule to keep up with? The moral of this story is: CHILL OUT KIDDIES!

The trick is to piss them off and then they talk to you. They many not talk to you nicely but then thats another story (obviously a joke, anyone thats mean to any member of FW, for instance, would get assassinated by most members of this board)

It is nice for someone in a band to sit and talk to you, and its normally what happens if they actually gave you thier email address, I know ive mentioned this guy a thousand times, but when nik gave me his email I did expect him to reply back on msn, but he talks to loads of other girls so I really cant blame him. I'm not pushy cause I know he thinks I'm cool.

I agree, like when a band knows who you are when you go see them it's great. I remember when I saw FW in Leeds and I got there and all these girls were crowding round Jeff and semi-harassing them and he was all 'Jemma!'....it was great, they were so jealous

They all use to have screennames, but the only one I know of that still gets online is Jeff, but He rarely gets online..and yeah most of them got rid of their screennames becuase too many people IMed them and they were busy anyway to get on.

Oh yeah, I remember at a FW show these girls woudln't let me get up front right up to the stage, so I complained to Jeff and Josh and they let me backstage. The girls looked pretty pissed.

haha...I hate nasty people at gigs. I always get to gigs so I'm one of the first in the queue and then just go straight to the barrier.
