I'M GOING!!! Yay! I'm driving the 3 hours from Huntsville to go up there. (Staying at my parents place.) I'll try to make sure to grab something for you Jay. Other than that, I can't really do much because I doubt they'll give me a whole lot of extra stuff. I'll make sure to try and get pictures/scans of whatever I do get and come back to this thread and explain what all they were talking about.
man i think its about time the uk had a street team like the dallas 1. i mean a really good 1 like theres.
All we need now is the prettyiest guy on the forum to sleep with her and then get the cd..... :D any volunteers?
:) lol... I can imagine your faces! I would've been exactly the same.
Now if you'd only smuggled in a recorder! ;)
So you in the US haven't received the Crusade stuff yet either - that makes me feel alittle better, thanx. I hope you're right though and the UK will get it's fair share.
i got 25 HIM darklight posters
106 wings of a butterfly postcards(there not really post cards but are the size of a postcard)
83 mini stickers.
i got mine in the mail and its not like she mailed it to me. well she did but it came all the way from warner brothers studios on warner brothers boulevard. its official stuff.
The thing that annoys me is even if you contact any of the gatekeepers like darling 777 or any of the others asking for fliers and shit to hand out they wont even reply to you. I've emailed 3 of them now to try and get my hands on some stuff so i can promote and none of them have replied.
:-\ England needs they're own street team that isn't super exclusive like the reapers.

I live in the US, and I like all the promoting and ect. BUT the album deal was worldwide, now that HIM are in the US it seems like they have forgotten about the UK.
Hey, no dissing on Texas... haha
Oh...I'm just hatin' on ya a bit....just jealous...
:-*
EDIT:
I assume this has to do with HIM....tho it doesn't say specifically....

yea i met some girl that worked at the undead booth (at warped tour) and she said somthing like we didnt have the promo shit out cuz we just came from out of the usa or somthing so she gave me her e mail and i gave her my adress and she said she would send me shit but she never did
I'm confused - why are we begging for this stuff when it's the record company that benefits from our promotion, not us......? I think it's totally strange and also a very incorrect way to approach the situation.
We are here to help. We are willing to donate our time and money to promote a band that we love.....and we are having to beg to be a part of it?
Personally, I think it sucks.
Great review! Thanks a lot!
Can't wait for the album to be released after that!
Quote: "'Under the Rose' IS one of the hardest tracks HIM has done so far."
Is it harder than Buried Alive By Love?
\,,/
why texa? damnit why?!
if i had some stuff i probly would put the posters at music stores only cuz i can get it back after the cd release date and it wont get stolen everything else like stickers can be slapped in school, telephone pole and skateparks (maby)

Is anyone from this board in the Milwaukee area? I didn't mention this here because I didn't think anyone was nearby. Let me know if anyone plans on attending. ;)
can you only go to one of these meetings if your a member of the Street team?
It was nice! But only 7 people showed up. It was pouring rain all day :( We got promo stuff for HIM and two other bands, Disturbed and Avenged Sevenfold and Corpse Bride.
The WI/Illinois Street team leader was very cool!
He told us so many people recieved their Internet Edition early, by mistake. We were suppose to start receiving them today, but somehow Warner Bros. sent them out a week early. So if you haven't recieved it yet, don't worry!

Lucky mistake! Did you get yours yet?
it's black with a big dark blue/grey heartagram on the front. it says
HIM
Dark Light
in the middle of the logo. the back has the same heartagram with the heartagram.com website running through it and the release date at the top in big white numbers.
edit - adding pictures

i'm not the leader of my local street team, however the leader is a retard and hasn't done anything other than post a couple times about nothing. i haven't done anything out of the ordinary... just signed up for missions like everyone else.
damn well that hurt, ive been having a lot of problems lately. im sorry i have no time for your life. but, if it wasnt for this retard, you wouldnt have gotten either of those packages you got.
edit:
oh and if you want to see what your worthless leader has been out doing, go by cd wherehouse on 78 and metcalf.
those posters look a lot better on that window than under your bed
Contact the main gatekeeper. Everywhere can get a street team in their state. They just need a Leader and not have a street team already.
yeah i just got some new stuff its weird tho they gave me a letter from the gatekeeper acting like i was a new member of the team?

did they ever say who the gate keeper was? because i thought they said it was someone we know

Yea, my girlfriend got in that exact same stuff a few days ago.did they ever say who the gate keeper was? because i thought they said it was someone we know
I asked DD777 about it at the Dark Light Listening thing a few weeks before the release and she said it was just some huge HIM fan that worked for Warner Marketing in LA. She said his name, but I forgot, probably Jim sumtin like people were saying. They were just playing up who it was for fun.
*sighs* RIP Jon. Yeah I will miss that guy.
