Annasthesia @ Greenbelt Festival

[Nathan]

Hey everyone,
Anna has just finished the promotional materials for "Anna".
Wanted to get these up as soon as possible so you could all admire... especially those who won't be able to make it!

[Nathan]

And the boarding passes:

At different points in my life I've felt the burning desire to be in England, but never so much as right freakin now.

There better be t-shirts, and I better get one.  So at least I can be a poser.

....oh                 my                         !!!!!!!!

don't even know what to say!

[b-girl]

so I thought of a few things.......

who designed and executed the promo stuff (posters, boarding pass)...just want to shout out....well done!

I second the t-shirt motion.....if you need ideas, the boarding pass on a shirt would be wicked.

Also...England, welcome the infamous    Zachary Johnson!

Wishin I was with you all out there

twas I... that's me anna, not "her" Anna-sthsia!!

Thanks, I know it's not the done thing, but I have to say I'm pretty chuffed with my handy work!

t-shirst, oh' yes! - thirded

if it all goes to plan, Charis and i souhld be dressing up as Air-hostesses to hand out flyers pre-gig, then to recieve them as pepole "get on board" at the door of the gig...

and england does indeed welcome Mr Z Johnson Esq! (is it my part to say the following? not sure, but here goes...) the welcoming was very much left up to england, after USA made a very big blunder... but welcome we did, and very glady!

It's cracking me how much I can't come. Someone had better be filming this, or recording it, or SOMETHING! And, Nathan...

ROCK ON!!!

Love,

Jane

Hey guys!!!
so excited that you're so excited.... ahem.
It's nearly 4am before the day of the show and I'm just getting online after a long few days of travel and rehearsal. I think we've got it sorted to be filmed and if we can, we'll try to record it as well...

Zach has gelled nicely with the rest of the band (seeing as he did write the original drum parts).

I'll keep you all posted if there is any internet access on the festival. It is looking like it's going to be an amazing weekend. We've got a whole crew there who are gonna be in suits handing out promo stuff... the entire band is going to be dressed as people from track 2 (the Work song) and the visuals are a combination of Zach's watercolours and some new live-action footage that some good friends have been putting together.

The boys are really rocking it and C. Burton's voice sounds lovely.

Hooray!

It is about 11:30 pm here in colorado as I check the forum before heading to bed (must be around 6:30 am there in Bournemouth....hours away from the beginning of the long awaited festival day).  been telling people here about the gig (just went out with the grandparents, uncle, and aunt....made sure to fill them in on all the anticipated goings on).....sounds like everything will be over the top amazing....proud of everyone envolved, lots of time and effort, lots of talent and perseverance.  

Rock and roll.......... "have your boarding pass and photo ID ready at the gate (this will ensure your entry and envolvement), the exit signs are here, here, and here (though you won't want to leave), oxygen masks will drop from the space above in the case of an emergency (though you might need some just because of all the excitement), you may store your bags in the overhead compartments or under the seat in front of you (baggage free so you can heave with the crowd and dance up the dust), please turn off all electronic devices (you won't need your own music), buckle your seat belt low and tight across your waist (things could get, will get, a bit rocky), and finally we will be showing a feature film for your in flight entertainment entitled..... Annasthesia (headphones will not be necessary) so please sit back, relax and enjoy the ride, and once again thank you for flying......................................................................................."

Hell yeah! About 1 hour till show and we are there in spirit. We want the works too! Tshirts etc. Rock till the sun comes up!

[Rees]

Well, what can I say... it was frickin' AWESOME!

I am too tired to go into details now but the reception from the good people of Greenbelt was amazing. We rocked it hard - Nathan was a star (of course), Tom fell over (due to Nathan running into him), Zach was the money... It was fun.

Let's hope we can do it again sometime.

[b-girl]

wicked...thanks for giving us some news Rees, I've been checking the forum all day to try and get the low down from last night......so stoaked that all was well.  When you are rested up give us some more insight.

   :lol:  B)   ... which one sums it up best.... impossible... a smilie to sum up truly one of the most amazing musical extravaganza’s.... ever! ... but words are pretty difficult too.... give me a few minutes (I have just arrived at work, after driving home last night from the festival, suffering immense sleep deprivation, and feeling the pressure of verbalising it for all those that missed the flight)

WWWHHHHHAAAAAHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEH!
