    You'll have to let us know when you plan on being there. We'll be there for a week....the first few days in Birmingham and then London for the rest of the week. Very cool about the VIP <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)">



    The website looks great. Sure wish I could conduct my class via chat!!

    I will definitely let you know. I'm thinking about bugging the guy in charge of assignments to see if he can give me a hint about when I'm teaching.


    Thanks for the compliment about the class site! Teaching in chat is GREAT. I can do it in my pajamas at home. Only problem is that you KNOW students are clicking back and forth between chat class and their facebook or whatever, and so you don't have their full attention (although I guess you never do, really! lol). That's why, if I'm doing it that way, I don't want to be gone for more than a week. If I get Maymester though, I could stay for two weeks - much more fun!

    I've discovered, with a little finagling, I can indeed see the London shows. YAY!!!!!

    Nancy, that is great news! I'm very excited for you!


    BTW, could you give me a few "finagling" tips?


    -------------

    Cause I'm livin' on things that excite me,
    Be they pastries or lobsters or love;
    I'm just tryin' to get by being quiet and shy,
    In a world full of pushin' and shove.

    Great job Soda - Good for you. I think I'm going to have to figure out another kind of finagling strategy in order to go to London -

    Strategy #1 - Get another job (since tomorrow is my last day in my old one). However, if I find the job too soon, I'll have to resort to:

    Strategy #2 - Tell my new employer that I need time off to cross the ocean to go see the Eagles.

    I'm just a hired hand working on the dreams I plan to try. The days go by...

    What are ILAA tickets? can I get hold of them over here? Have you got a seat number allocated yet, Nancy? It's all very exciting!

    Info about ILAA can be found at www.iloveallaccess.com Password is farewell. The tickets cost a lot, but the seats are usually pretty good. The bad thing is you don't know where they are until the day of the show.

    According to their website, for this show, ILAA (I Love All Access) 5-star tickets are guaranteed to be in the first three rows. Each ticket costs $440 before taxes. Considering what ticket brokers or Ebayers charge, it could be worse. Here are all the benefits (being paranoid and noticing they were a bit different from the benefits on the main page, I took a screen cap of them to keep for my records). Here is the link to that screen cap: Wembley ILAA 5-star info

    And as eaglesfans pointed out, I don't know my seat and won't until the day of the show, but even if I get third row, I think it's worth it. Here's hoping for first in front of Glenn, though!

    P.S. It also says you will have to sign a waiver and release from liability. What, are they afraid you'll sue them if you're hit by Timothy's pick because you're in the first three rows? Do they think they'll have to pay for the dry cleaning if you get sprayed too many times by Glenn spit?

    Thanks for the info, eaglesfans and soda. Seems like I must use some savings and get a similar deal. As for the waiver, lol!

    First....you guys don't have to call us "eaglesfans". It looks so weird! L&M is fine. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)">



    Second...about the waiver. I've never been asked to actually sign it. I don't think they're worried about anything happening during the concert. I think they're more worried about what happens at the 5 star dinner party. Most of the time you are backstage so they don't want you wandering off to find your favorite bandmember or complaining that you don't get to meet the band. They're just trying to covers themselves against lawsuits (because people have been ticked off about not meeting the band).
