[I'm NOT going to die]

I would like to donate money to the Danger Ensemble during one of the two Paradise shows in Boston, MA. The problem is, is that I am not 18 so I cant attend the show itself... can I still donate the money?

Any ideas?
It's cold hard cash, not electronic.

Thanks,
-John

lurk around the venue before the show, they'll most likely be around, getting on/off the tour bus etc. i'm sure they'd appreciate you going there to give them tips...

cause if i understand what you mean, you can't use the internet tips hat?

[I'm NOT going to die]

Yeah, it's actually money, so the virtual hat is not an option for me.

I really hope I am given the oppurtunity to give them the money.

well i was a few hours early at the gig here in ghent, belgium. and the danger ensemble were constantly walking in and out. kat even came up to us to ask somethings. steven commented amanda on how long we had been there.. i guess it'll be about the same around there.

[slyvia k]

yes, in milano too. i was there at 3.30 (show started at 9), saw them countless times, they even came in the bar where i went for a quick break (cause anyhow there was noone in line...)

if you go there, you'll see them for sure

[I'm NOT going to die]

Is it okay if I just hand them the money?

Or will there be an actual place to put the money... or does it not even matter, lol

[slyvia k]

lol no, they don't go around with a tip hat before shows... just put it in an envelope and give it to them  they'll really appreciate it.

[I'm NOT going to die]

Okay, thank you so much for your help.

same here, got there at 2:30, show started at 8
my friend and i were the only ones in line, till about 5pm, when Niels and his friends got there and amanda walked in 
we were the only ones there till about 7 or 7:30..



and @ john: i think it's real cool that you're willing to go there to just give money to the danger ensemble, even though you can't go to the show  i think they'll appreciate the money even more in those cases..

[Niels]

Yeah, at both the shows in Ghent & Tilburg they were outside before the show.
Also, if it's an 18+ show, there's a chance they'll do an all-ages thing again, so you can just go there!

[I'm NOT going to die]

Do you happen to know if you have to pay for the all ages show? (Even though Im donating money anyways) or is it okay just to show up?

I'm pretty sure that the all-age convergences are free.

[I'm NOT going to die]

Does anyone know if the show will be held after or before the actual show?
Annnnnnd--- where would it be held? o.0

[slyvia k]

definitely before. in europe the 2 convergences ( ithink they were 2) were open air. she'll tell in due time, if they do one, don't worry.

[chameleon]

It's great that you want to support the Danger Ensemble but since the shows are going to be in late November I think it is unlikely that there will be a Boston convergence.  It looks like the predicted HIGH temperatures will probably be in the 30's or 40's. Not much fun for an outdoor show and AFP doesn't really need to add pneumonia to accompany her poor foot.

Like others, I think you have a good chance of seeing them if you show up. I don't know the venue but sometimes the tour bus is nearby.  If so, it wouldn't hurt to hang around there for a bit.

both paradise shows are listed as 18+ at the club's web sight and the ticketing sight
(sad venues need to make money from bar sales)

if you don't see the danger ensemble outside before the show,
you can give the money to whomever handles brigade call (see below)
or to a fan you trust to give to them

all ages convergences
(but granted how COLD it's likely to be in boston, it's unlikely one will happen for the paradise shows)
have been announced via the usual channels
including amanda's myspace
http://www.myspace.com/whokilledamandapalmer
with myspace blog entries and myspace bulletins
friend her there and subscribe to the blog to get notices of both

i try and show up 90 minutes before doors:
* brigade call is usually 60 minutes before doors,
 and it's fun to see them all go in
 some one from amanda' staff has a list,
 and let's the vetted brigaders in
* give me a chance to chat more with other fans

i asked steven:
brigade call for the usa/canada wkap tour will usually be @ doors
with brigaders encouraged to brigade outside until then
