I'd go if I wasn't in dire straits.  *sigh*  Or at least buy a ticket for someone else to go.

I'm glad you are extending a hand out to us.  Thank you!  It is a great thing.

If someone needs an extra $25 dollars or so to go let me know.  Hey yo! that rhymes....well.....only so so.

I'd have to buy a plane ticket and I (at this time) don't even have all the money for the ticket itself.  So I'm offering $25 dollars for anyone who wants to go....and I guess he will extend another $25, so that is $50 if you want to go and money is the only object....and if he really will match it.

I'm not a democrat(I consider myself an independent) by any means but this is also a opportunity for some publicity for Carlton, where alot of people will be able to see her and hear the music.  So you guys should go to support her; even if you think Mrs. Clinton is evil.  :wink:

You might say, "Vanessa, I suffered through this for you you know.  Just because I'm this big huge insane fan who would do ANYTHING to support you."  *then meekly wave your little elephant flag you stuffed into your purse in front of her*

But this idea didn't come from me....erm...in fact this post doesn't exist. *poof*

really would love to go but it's a good 100 dollars just for gas there and back for me... and then another 100 dollars for the ticket and I don't get paid til next week.  I'm pretty much entirely broke.  Just can't afford it.  Reeeally would love to though.

That's incredibly nice of you to offer.  But I realized that I have classes that I have to go to and wouldn't be able to make it there on time.  If only I were still at home, the city would only be 3 hours away.  Thanks so much though.  Wish that I could make it.  If it weren't right at the end of the semester before finals, I wouldn't go to class.

Yes, my thoughts as well.  

I don't get paid until tuesday otherwise I could send more money if any of you wanted to go.  It would cost me over $500 to go, and that is just out of the question right now, especially before payday.

I'm simply struggling to have money for groceries and gas for my day to day living... I just would be dumb to spend $200 to go to the city, in which case I'd have to miss classes which will lower my grade in those courses (attendence policies) which just all doesn't seem quite worth it.  As much as I love V... I need to eat and graduate on time haha.

I would miss work, school, and anything else to be there! AND pay...but I live in Southern California. What a bust...went to hollywood at midnight to get a wristband to see avril, then went back on thursday to actually see her. I would do the same for V if she was performing around here.

Vanessa is going to be BIG.  I can feel it.  And as you guys being her fans for five years even at not so great times and long extended times of nothing much going on, he is extending a hand out to you to be a part of it.  Correct me if I'm wrong.  Am I right, majakilmon?  Or even partially right?

As you can see he is being pretty cool, e.g., trying to help getting people to shows  ---in this case even out of his own pocket, letting us know she is performing, and keeping us updated on what is coming up.  Your personal liaison to motivating the fans and spreading the word; basically marketing vanessa and fan relations, so and so forth.

I know it is a depressing time for alot of people, but I say it is time to get out of hibernation and get excited!

I'd sit here and say I'd miss all that for a V show... and quite honestly I would... except for the fact that I simply won't be able to live here if I spent the extra 200 dollars.  I have no job right now, my tutoring position ended.  Right now I have 40 dollars to my name... I'm suuuuch a poor college kid.  And on top of that I have to pay for summer classes in order to get my master's done on time.  I'm sure V will be playing somewhere in NY sometime in the near future, if she wasn't then I'd probably be an idiot and go to this show.  But it's a political event that I really don't care about and she's only playing 3 songs.  I'd rather see a full length show :D

Amen to that.

I think it's great that Vanessa is stepping up for her political beliefs - especially at a time like this when it's really important for people to take action ([/personalpoliticalplug]) - but for $100 3 songs is just not enough. Also, the fact that it's on a weekday, and a Monday no less, makes it even more difficult for people to be able to go. I've never understood why so many concerts are during the week - weekend shows are much more accessable to a wider audience. So when she's playing in upstate new york on a weekend for under $75, Gina and I will be there in the front singing our little hearts out :-)

you better believe it.  I'll be there if it's over the summer in the city even, if I don't have classes.  I can probably make it to Western PA shows too and Ohio or even Toronto.  Being in buffalo has it's perks, but being at home is much closer to the city.  I can't wait for shows :D
