I thought that myspace page was not her official page. :?
-
I dont live in nyc or else I would have replied... :(
-
^aww, this time I can't afford to go there in the middle of the year. Well, if you go , enjoy and tell V I said hi hehe
btw, I thought that myspace page was not her official page. :?
It's not!
-
weird! :?
I'm not 21 anyway :(
-
This has really excited me even though I'm only 18 & I live in England.
Have fun if anyones going! x
-
I never saw that. You would think if it was legit they would put it up on vanassacarlton.com instead of myspace.
-
So people from NJ are disqualified, huh? I live five miles from the city, dammit! (I live in Jersey City.) :cry:

I don't think you are disqualified, but just lie on your profile saying you are from ny, I don't think it'll be a problem. :lol:
-
To anyone who's going, make sure you bring a video camera or cell phone to tape/ record the concert. she'll probably play at least one new song!!! or at least hopefully.
-
Tres excited.. anyone going.... :-?

If this is for real, it's a bunch of BS that it wasn't on her official site. I've been a longtime and dedicated fan, as have many on this board. After 4+ years, I feel like many of us deserve better.
I'm not pleased.

the myspace that it was posted by has been up and running for quite some time...i'd hope it'd be legit

then why is it that vanessa said:"so when the new site goes up and i get my act together and do a myspace thing " (http://www.vanessacarlton.com/bboard/forumname/viewtopic.asp?TopicID=1586643&topic=what+i%27m+into+right+now) on one of her posts. And isn't it funny how that particular post from her official forum is the ONLY one that is Not in her "official" myspace (http://www.myspace.com/vanessacarlton).
:roll:
I assumed that is was not her myspace then.That and the fact that everyone here said it wasn't her real myspace. I think nosticker is right.
-
ummmmmmm......Tuesday is the 31st
-
it was corrected as Monday the 30th
-
It says on the myspace now... The OFFICIAL myspace... idk
I would think they would change the picture... or the information.. maybe they really liked it..
peace
steven
-
nice how the "official" myspace says she's from "Mitford"
:roll:
something about a bulletin being deleted tells me its a total fake.
in fact I'd worry about the safety of those 20 people, they have no idea what they're getting into.
also, i doubt Vanessa would approve of 3 of her songs from Harmonium being available for free download.
-
i'll let ya know more when i know more.

Dan/NS
I agree!!!! As soon as Steve posted this I went to the official site to the usual blank news page. It's not listed anywhere. Makes me suspicious it's not real. I would think Vanessa would treat her fans a little better than just a bulletin on myspace. She'd at least write about it on the o-board.
-
I have her manager's number from when I went to nyc in 2003... but I wonder if it is the same thing..... ugh
I think Kaysha has it too... we should call someone to makesure that you are not getting into something insaine...

Yeah, count me in with that statement!
And I'm NYC right now...gosh, I kinda hope this is fake: it'd kill me not being able to go! :?

blueglover you're totally not 22.
Damnit all, sucks being 20. But yeah I wonder if it's real... very questionable.

The thing that makes no sense to me is that, IF that myspace IS hers, why has she not definitively said so? She said one was coming, but there are all kinds of bogus things happening at MS. I mean, it is THE marketing tool for musicians....why would she not want all of us over there asap?
Dan/NS
-
Amen to that Dan!
I still can't believe, if this whole thing is actually true, we're being left out like that...
I feels so not Vanessa-ish...

Dan/NS
Dude, what is your problem. Every fan of Vanessa's is entitled to seeing her perform an exclussive show, regardless as to how long anyone has been following her or if they're a nessaholic or not. Your elitism is completely unnecessary. Artists announce exclussive shows through My Space and not their official websites ALL THE TIME; such as Rilo Kiley and Regina Spektor among others, it's common. And why do they only do it through My Space? Duh, because it's exclussive. Not everyone can go. So, the next time you log onto My Space, check to see if any bulletins have been posted by the people that run her My Space page just like everyone else does. Instead of whining about how you weren't privvy to this information. Don't expect Vanessa to constantly cater to your needs as a "dedicated fan". Just go see another show the next time she's around NYC. Not a big deal.

I agree, even though I could not go there anyway :lol: But it would be nice to see a lot more people from nessaholics or her o'board chosen instead of random myspace "fans" :roll:

Well I don't know about that. I mean, it may not be something to get upset over, but there could very well be some people at this secret concert who are barely even fans of vanessa. It does seem kind of unfair that this opportunity is afforded to whoever happened to be online and notice the bulletin when meanwhile there are desperate fans dying to get that up close and personal with vanessa. But I suppose it could be how vanessa wanted it, could be that whether something's fair or not depends solely on whether you're lucky or not. But yea, I think there are better ways to go around throwing intimate little concerts like this... but what would I know?

We're going to have to disagree. Like many on this board, I have walked the walk when it comes to VC, and other inhabitants of these boards know that, as well. I am not the same as someone who just happened to be on MySpace at that time, and neither are the others I know that have backed VC 100% every chance they got.....and are not able to go to this show. If it's for real, it's a big slap in the face. For me, it's not the show itself...it's the principle....no respect for the long haulers....or the majority of the fans, really.
Read my post again. There are serious questions posed by many about the authenticity of both that MS page and the show. Ultimately, I'm reserving my judgment for that. VC values her fans, and this just seems shady.

I completely agree with Dan. We're not whining about the whole thing, we're just shocked by the way it has been done.
I mean, last year, I came all the way from France to see VC perform 2 shows (each being 45 min long) and heck, I would do it again to support her. I've even done 6 dates of her Eastern tour (only 4 actually because the other 2 got cancelled at the last minute).
My point is the same as Dan's: we've been here all this time, supporting her like crazy and this is what we get? a show that only 13 year olds knew about because they're on Myspace 24/7?! And the most ironic thing being that the show is actually 21+!
VC values her fans, and this just seems shady.
I couldn't agree more with that, again! Enough said.

Ok.. First of all.. you all have to STOP thinking that Vanessa is betraying you.. It is so dumb, get a life... and Didn't vanessa just get a new label.. How do we know that she had any say in this... the new label could have said were going to do thing, and we will publisize it.. I have no idea.. it is all speculation.. but you guys are getting redicoulous just fighinting about this...STUPID

Who said Ghisy or I were fighting with anyone? I can only speak for myself. I'm disappointed with whatever this thing is called, but I don't consider myself at odds with anyone. People have their opinions. It's very basic. Some are OK with what may be happening, some are not. I am not. That's all I'm saying. And you are correct, it is, at this point, speculation, so I'm not passing any further judgment. I simply don't have enough information to draw any kind of conclusion.

Well, stop bitching about us just having an opinion about it, so YOU get a life! ;)
And as Dan pointed it out AGAIN, we're not fighting with anyone.
I never said I was blaming Vanessa on that one. I wouldn't dare, I respect her way too much to do something like that.
Still, this was done poorly, you can't deny it.

Fighting?
:roll:
sorry.. but you guys are talking to the computer screen

I think Dan and the like are right. It is kind of strange to make such an exclusive announcement on Myspace when Vanessa has never come out and said she uses it officially. Therefore, I don't know if I believe it's legitimacy. And if it is legitimate, it's been done sloppily.
I have only been to one VC show myself and wouldn't have gone to this thing no matter how public it had been. If they had said "call this number at this time" and emailed it to us all, I still wouldn't be going because I don't have the time and don't really care that much anymore. But that doesn't mean the way that this has been done is a good way to do things!
....MySpace is annoying.

Oh man... just play it safe.

this sounds crazy exculsive....

I don't know why anyone is surprised at the way this whole thing came about. We have never been in the loop about anything that goes on with V and her career. Part of the reason why her second album bombed. No promotion.
I think that whoever ran that unofficial, now official (not that I can't make one and say it's official) Myspace was asked to turn it over/or help her new label or a promo dept. of sorts. An announcement may come one day saying it's official, just like it said the missvanessacarlton was the official... Who knows? She probably doesn't even know about this contest or that she is even performing so of course we can't blame her.
I would say that the 2005 thing was a typo (obviously) and her new people are stupid. Cause if they were smart they would take/ask for our help here at Nh.com in promotion etc. Or at least get someone to post here with info.
Looks like Giant Magazine (http://www.giantmag.com/2006/10/contests/win-tickets-to-the-giant-show-volume-1/) had a contest of their own.
Very humorous to see her name with Lil Wayne and Baby. Reminds me of back in the day going to those radio shows where she was with the likes of Ja Rule and Ashanti.
And yes it does suck that people who aren't true fans will probably win but I am glad that you got in BWilli.

:D :D :D
From the looks of it...maybe they were testing out her new myspace...???I mean how many people would actually respond kinda thingy???
And i guess you may just get to meet her Brian!!!I am so jealous...(not like i would've had the chance...given where I am staying...)...
But hey Have Fun!!!
tell us everything that happens...!!!(especially the new tracks....get em for us....pleeeeeeese...) :D :D :D
-
Wow, ok, that sure sounds weird.
Maybe I should just show up at the door and see what happens! haha

go for it!

I just might!! haha :twisted:
-
i'm sorry that a lot of peeps here didn't get in, and are upset about it, but i am happy to be one of the 20 who got in (things like that never happen for me haha)
it can't hurt to show up Ghisy, but i just have a feeling they wont let anybody else. from the message, they seem pretty sturdy on only letting those in who are on the list.
-
^I'm happy you got in! :D , at least one nessaholic is in! I just wish more people from this board did too.
-
I agree. Ultimately, it's best that a few Holics were among the few to get in. With some rare exceptions, we have been at most NY area shows, TV appearances, etc. We can all be proud!

dan, i wish you would have come! vanessa made sure all of her fans were put on the guest list. she is so sweet. i was hoping you would show up. i would have called you but i lost your number apparently cuz itz not in my phone.
-
No way I could have gone. I had some very very important things to take care of. I appreciate that, though. Next time something comes up, though, I'm all about it.
