Countdown...

Only a week & a day to the RI show and just about a half to the CT VIP show!

WHOOO!!

I'm so excited...but I really don't want to think about the withdrawal I'm going to go through once my mini-tour is over. so sad...

"Official" Pictures...

As I mentioned in a previous post, the "official" group pictures from our VIP moments posted on the sponsor's website left a lot to be desired in the quality department. Gee, my 19 month old son can take a better picture than what they have taken. Did that sound bitter as I didn't mean it to!? (heehee)

Anyway, I read on the messageboard that I frequent that there was a trick to getting a clearer picture without photoshop.

So I followed the steps...and let's see what happens.

You tell me - do you think the pictures are clearer than originally posted:

MASH...

Do you remember the game MASH when you were in high school?


Well there is an online version and someone on the newkids message board posted a link and thought it would be a funny to see what people got.

Not the desired outcome I'd hope for but funny nonetheless...


You will live in an Apartment

You will drive a Green Bronco

You will marry Joey McIntyre and have 8 kids

You will be a Roadie in New York.

This is the fun kind of hysteria that takes place during the show... I can't wait - only two more weeks!!

Countdown...

3 Weeks until November 6th Show in Providence, RI with Alyson & Moira

3 Weeks & 2 days until November 8th Show at Mohegan Sun, CT with Alyson.

And to top it off ... at the November 8th show, we get to meet up with Megan & Mel again. And Stacey and Kelley has 5* too...

Good times ahead!

Hys-ter-i-cal...

5* VIP Pictures...

Finally, the 5* VIP pictures have been posted for our shows. So while I'm very happy to have these as a momento of the evening, I have a few gripes.

For what the cost is per person, these pictures are horrible. The camera they use is a small digital point & shoot that is clearly a few years old. The quality of each picture has a lot to be desired for. While I understand they may not be able to hire professional photographers for each show, they could at least use a better camera. If you try to enlarge this picture, it becomes grainey & pixely.

And not only that - ILAA (the event sponsor) does not mail you out a copy of the photo. You have to save it from their website and that's all you get. So if you wanted a high quality 5x7 or even larger picture of your experience, I hope you're okay to have a shite-arse picture.

Edit time...

Hey Megan... don't hate on me if you see that I crop our CT group pic so I can try to get a somewhat decent Joey pic! And obviously it's not going to happen because of the damn quality...
