edit: added pic coz its cool...
edit: 05/02 - i need to say that i dont want to write to stevie to complain about her staff or collegues.... just to say why i didn't get to say what i wanted etc.... and im summary of the enxt two pages of replies, im no crazed fan, just want to send her a note and dont know how to... :thumbsup:
ORIGINAL POST...... Hey everyone....
Let me firstly say that i am very lazy and thats why it has come to the point that im asking for some advice and some help! :sorry:
As nearly all of you know and by my little icon, i met Stevie in November yet it was upsetting to me, not on her part whatsoever, but on the people around her. A long time fan of stevie's told me to send her a letter explaining how i felt and why as stevie would not be happy to know what took place around her...
Now im not a writer, i have a difficult time getting out what im thinking and feeling and have put it off... and off... and off, till two weeks ago i had an urge at midnight to write a letter. Anyway this letter full of rambling and nonsense needs to be edited and sent with the pic of stevie and i to her.. BUT my problem is that STEVIE Is ALREADY IN AUSTRALIA :eek: AND stevie is actually next week going to be practising for 5 days only 1k from my work!!!
.... So what can i do to get even the smallest note to her? I know she will remember me if i send it with the pic, but i dont know where to send it, dont know where she is staying...
I JUST DONT KNOW.... and whats worse is that im too late... :distress: (insert crying smilie here)

You need to find out where she is staying...what hotel. If you can find that out...send it by personal courier...not Fedex..but local courier...it will get maximum effect. You could also send something to the promoter...but it's likely not to make it to Stevie. You're right...you are very late.
Good luck. Let us know what happens. I care.

I could be wrong but in my opinion the odds of successfully doing things that way (sending to her hotel) are VERY low. I would imagine that any Hotel that Stevie stays in while on tour is instructed, in extremely clear, unmistakable terms, not to forward ANYTHING to her; unless it's from, for example, Chris or her Mom.
I think your best bet at this point in time is to send it to the Carrollton Address - through Nicksfix. That is, after all, the address that Stevie has requested fans use - for fanmail.
And no offense intended - but that's what this is. Nicksfix and Stevie are actually VERY precise about this sort of stuff, and that is the method that Stevie has requested that fans use to contact her. And please don't take this the wrong way, I'm not trying to be mean or calling you a "crazyperson" - but you may wish to think a little about why it is that 2 people have replied to this today, out of 77 people that viewed it. The address to send your fan mail to Stevie is below.
The Nicks Fix
P.O. Box 112083

Actually I just was "told" that it had been forwarded to her. Feel free to be skeptical; I am, too, a little. No picture :confused:

The more you say "dont be offended, and im not trying to be mean BUT" the more i feel as though i should be! :shocked:
I know Stevie has a fan address... duh...:rolleyes: I decided to ask ledgies the question because this is the place to ask it.... no harm in asking, wanted some advice and any info or experiences others had had.

Let me tell U something.
I am a courier in the city.
I can basically get in anywhere I want that we deliver to
even if it's not on my specific run.
Even if it's not..........all couriers know each other. THere's ways around that.
You think you can't get a letter or a note delivered to Stevie?
PUHLEASE!
If you deliver to a hotel & they know you.............the hell you can't!
You just need to remember one thing
It's not what you know but WHO you know!
Jayne........i'm crossing my fingers for you.

Okay, I totally don't understand anything you ever say, or how it relates to the post you're responding to.
I wasn't skeptical, I literally didn't know what you were talking about with your series of three emoticons.
I mean, why quote someone and not address what you are quoting? :confused:
It's madness.
How was I supposed to tell by this: ":wavey: (;) :laugh: )" that you actually meant that you had been "'told'" that it had been forwarded to her"?
And I barely understand what you are talking about in this post. It's like you are saying things in the context of the assumption that people can read your mind.
Seriously.
Totally absurd.
well, have a night. Good luck with that. :shocked: :wavey:

Great! I'm glad you could help her. :)
I was just trying to inject a joke into an otherwise utilitarian discussion. I wish everyone good luck in getting anything to Stevie, and all Stevie contact related things.
If you were really thinking +vely, you would have understood that it was a joke, and laughed, because your heart was light and free. Why do automatically assume I was being -ve??? My heart is light and free, and so I gifted a small peice of my joy to you all, in the form of an offhanded witty quip.
I feel sad now, you are stifling my natural exuberance and lust for life. :(
The fact that you did not laugh troubles my soul, I wish everyone could feel as +vely wonderful as I do~!!!
I hope u feel better soon. :angel:

It is true that it is who you know... A domino effect takes place... just got to find the right piece! THAT is the only reason i got into that tent and met her in november! I was unwavable in my positive thinking that i was indeed going to get in that tent! my boss laughed and made fun of me and said " there was no way your going to get in there" and that i was fooling myself.... WELL!!
Just got to find out which hotel she might be staying at huh! Would love to also send her some real nice stunning flowers to her dressing room, or maybe to rod laver arena where she will be rehersing (and probably doing some video recordings for the dvd).. that may be the best way.... :cool: send it to the rod laver arena!

Well, good luck with it - sincerely. Sorry if I seemed a little mean before but we (the "chatters") have had to deal with one or two "nutbars" in the chat room on Nicksfix lately - so I guess I'm feeling a little bit paranoid and jumpy right now. If you read it twice, the phrase "got to find out which hotel she's staying at" has the potential to "set off some red lights" - do you see? But maybe the courier thing is a good idea!
Have you thought of going to a show and getting seats near the front so you can shake her hand during "The Edge Walk?" Could even slip her a note that way...

Yes harriet i am, and will be there during the edge walk... But i see in so many concerts that she hands the stuff straight to the gaurd with her and he just either puts them on the ground or they are almost thrown at someone else.... Do you think she would want or receive anything given? And the flowers i would send her wouldn't be possible to hand over... Stevie only gets BIG! :laugh:

No no nutbag here.... weird posts yes but nutbag no! I sat 1 metre from stevie with no one inbetween us for 10minutes! I wa sin the same tent as her for 30mins and no screeming crazy fainting from me... :laugh:
I wanted to find out what hotel she was in so i could send her a note. I dont even want to send flowers as i feel a bit weird, desperate and crazy sending like $100 boquet to someone who would freek out at it

No, it looks like you really can't. Sorry.
How could me saying
"She's totally untouchable, give up now or abandon all hope ye who write letters to Stevie. *"
possibly be construed as anything but a joke? I didn't even use regular language. I mean, seriously. You'd have to be a moron to think that was any kind of "slam" coming from me. Really.
It's okay, you obviously don't know me, and there seems to be a learning curve here, so I'll let you guys get on with it...:shocked:

Love your picture.... Maybe you could send a note to the concert hall. I've done that before in Holland and she did get it (she told me after the show). Send it to the production office. But.... I've heard that she won't be too happy when you complain about her peeps. I don't know what happened but you've met her and had your pic taken. If anyone was rude to you, you'll have to get over it, try to ignore those people next time and try to meet her through someone else (preferbly her manager Sheryl Louis). Good luck!!!!!!!!!

Very true .You should probably just let it go.Even if you 're not a crazy stalker type you might be percieved as one with that type of attempt to contact her and with that particular complaint.

This is so true. If anyone remembers you they might think you're a stalker while Stevie doesn't think so at all (she might think you're a loyal fan) but what the people around her say, that goes. She might not even know you're there unless she sees you.

Another thing to consider is Stevie gets dozens and dozens of letters at shows and on tours. I know fans want to believe she reads them all....but...
And CatDancer is so right on the money...if Stevie's peeps dont like you or are worried about you for any reason...forget it. Stevie might think you are the nicest fan in the world but the peeps insulate her anyway and she has no clue.
Good luck Jayne..and enjoy the shows.

This is so true. If anyone remembers you they might think you're a stalker while Stevie doesn't think so at all (she might think you're a loyal fan) but what the people around her say, that goes. She might not even know you're there unless she sees you.
Remember when the security guard freaked last summer? From his point of view it looked like the guy was trying to pull Stevie into the crowd, but Stevie remembered the guy and realized that he's "special" and that he had just fainted, and it later turned out that she was pulling backward with ALL of her might to try to prevent him from hitting his head and getting hurt, bless her wild heart. :angel: Stevie's and Andrew McManus's security guards and people know their jobs -
Protect Stevie at ALL costs - and Stevie feels her job is, "Protect and entertain her fans - at ALL costs." So maybe nobody did anything wrong, in a way - these people are paid a LOT of money - ultimately,
by Stevie - to err on the side of caution.
Just some food for thought. It's like the chinese finger puzzle, i.m.o. Don't f. with her people or she's gonna get REAAAALLL f'n angry.
Also, I'd like to mention - don't underestimate how protected Stevie is. I think Kelly was alluding to this - these people are probably VERY high-level, almost to the point of being at the level of Secret Service agents. Some of the big stars - (and Stevie IS a "big star" ) - are hiring EXTREMELY expensive security companies that are VERY "high-level" - and they literally may be retired members of Delta Force. Stevie may have the biggest heart in the world and love her fans, but these people have a job to do and they DON'T care about your feelings, only protecting Stevie, even if someone's feelings get hurt and even if they make a mistake.
I'd like to suggest waiting and let HER recognize YOU. I've been told that on occasion her memory for fans she's met in the past is actually quite astonishing. Just go with the flow, and have fun. And I sincerely do hope this helps somehow.

.
Not to be too naive or gullible but I've been told by someone who knows (yeah, him) that she really does try as hard as she can to read them all.
Obviously that depends on her mood, how busy she is, what's going on in her life, how much time there is until the next show, etc. I suppose sometimes her assistant gives her a "summary." But like every other human being - she tries. Probably as hard as she can.

Hey Janis,
I can understand your instinct to want to write to Stevie, but --wow-- by meeting and have a pic taken with Stevie, you have had an intimate experience with her that many of us would die for. Some of us paid hundreds of dollars to have a similar experience at AHI, were treated rudely, AND didn't meet her or get a pic taken.
All to say, good luck with getting the note to Stevie, but also cherish that photo and experience...and enjoy the concert!

I second that...and what Jannie said too. I about killed myself trying to get an autograph/picture in Biloxi and it really took away from the enjoyment of the concert. You have a picture with her - and a GREAT picture at that. Enjoy yourself. I can't wait to hear all about it.

http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a336/Janis_no1/Stevieandiedit.jpgHey everyone....
Let me firstly say that i am very lazy and thats why it has come to the point that im asking for some advice and some help! :sorry:
As nearly all of you know and by my little icon, i met Stevie in November yet it was upsetting to me, not on her part whatsoever, but on the people around her. A long time fan of stevie's told me to send her a letter explaining how i felt and why as stevie would not be happy to know what took place around her...
Now im not a writer, i have a difficult time getting out what im thinking and feeling and have put it off... and off... and off, till two weeks ago i had an urge at midnight to write a letter. Anyway this letter full of rambling and nonsense needs to be edited and sent with the pic of stevie and i to her.. BUT my problem is that STEVIE Is ALREADY IN AUSTRALIA :eek: AND stevie is actually next week going to be practising for 5 days only 1k from my work!!!
.... So what can i do to get even the smallest note to her? I know she will remember me if i send it with the pic, but i dont know where to send it, dont know where she is staying...
I JUST DONT KNOW.... and whats worse is that im too late... :distress: (insert crying smilie here)
So #1 Janis, you've been given a LOT of advice and suggestions. What are you going to do? If we were to do a poll the various advices, I'd weigh in with the Ghost, again:
The Nicks Fix
P.O. Box 112083
Carrollton, Texas 75011-2083
USA
and with all those that say relax, enjoy the show and write when you can. Stevie can catch your email when she gets to relax a bit and enjoy the fan mail.

Thank you SO much for saying what I was trying to say. 'Cause believe it or not I totally agree with you, you are SOOOOO f'g right.
But then, so is everyone else, in a way - at the same time, yeah. In my opinion, rule number one) a) is to do the exact OPPOSITE of this, as I'm sure you understand, and you're "in" - or at least have a chance of talking with her.
Chinese Finger Puzzle, JanisNo1. Look it up on the Net if you don't get what I'm saying. Stevie had enough Teddy Bears and Flowers as of 1981, as she said in the HBO concert. And remember that there are ALWAYS people trying to get her "important messages" at concerts. And no I'm not implying anything, we all know you're heart's in the right place, but the more you push, the more you'll push her away.....
A very, very - uhmm - wise??? :shocked: man once said,
"Take it easy,
Take it easy -
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
drive you craa---zieee."
You may lose and you may win - but you will NEVER be here again -
Chill, and have fun - but "rock it" at the same time. Hard trick, I know...

So..I know these things do get delivered to where they need to get to!! TRUE STORY!!! Good Luck Janis!!!
P.S. Send it over the day before she plays..cuz you know she will be there rehearsing..that way she will get it before other gifts arrive on opening nite!!!!!!

Meh, bunch of idiots.
Oh and I don't post often, I used to and deleted them.
No. Not that I agree with Ghost_Trackers "exaggeration" if you wanna call it that but you specifically said STEVIE was NOT a big star...ANYMORE.
Comparing her to Boner? yeah BONE-UGH. please. he's more concerned with his political bullshit and making headlines for himself then Stevie is.
You don't have to be in the news every day to be a 'big' star.
At least Stevie *has* a [relatively] loyal fanbase.
And if they want to think she's bigger than Jesus..who cares :D

Jayne, I love you to death (from what I've seen on your posts on here and such) so please do not take this the wrong way. I'm just saying keep this in mind because as I fan of Stevie I'm sure a lot of others feel the same way and I've been wanting to tell you this since I first heard about your encounter in November. Please know that this comes from my heart and is not meant to offend you in any way. I totally respect your feelings :).
That being said...DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LUCK YOU ARE THAT YOU MET STEVIE NICKS AND GOT A PICTURE WITH HER?? Regardless of the circumstances, how you were treated, and what occurred with the people around her YOU GOT TO MEET YOUR IDOL. Do you have any idea how many people would have died to be in your shoes and to have such an opportunity? Who cares what took place around her. You got what you wanted and were in her presence for a half hour was it? I am one of the lucky ones who met her briefly after an FM show for a meet and greet but due to very unfortunate circumstances I was never emailed the picture that was taken but you know what? Instead of being mad at how I was treated I treasured that moment I had with her and will forever hold it near and dear to my heart. Do you know how painful it was that I did not receive the picture that was promised of me and my beloved Stevie? I am still to this day not over it but I focus on the good and remember who fortunate I am to have ever met her in the first place and I think this is something for you to consider instead of being upset about the circumstances surrounding the situation.
It’s just a tad bit disheartening to hear about you being upset when you got an opportunity that most people can only dream about. I hope you understand where I am coming from :xoxo:.

Was a big star. Somehow Mr Bono, the biggest rock star in the world, manages to fight off the force of his security and greet fans before nearly every show. I get the feeling you find some bizarre thrill from hyping up Stevie and her relevance.
I admit I don't know what the current situation is, but I've seen pictures of Stevie's bodyguard that were taken in the late nineties. He's about 300 pounds, and looks like he bench presses about 400. No exaggeration.
And stars with MUCH less money than Stevie - or their movie/record comanies, etc. on their behalf - have hired the types of security companies that I was mentioning. I don't feel I'm "hyping up her importance," I'm just saying, "be realistic about what Stevie's security situation may be these days."
She's been stalked by crazies in the past and there was at least one kidnapping threat - and Stevie's perfectly capable of hiring the type of security company I was describing and may have found it necessary to do so.
(Or may have been talked into it by a friend, family, the record company, etc.) These people have mace, they're NOT afraid to use it, they are VERY highly trained and they care first about protecting the "star," not the fans feelings. And they WILL err on the side of caution.
So all that I was saying is, please be aware that that may be the situation in Australia, and that if you "push," it'll backfire - and that won't help to get a message to Stevie.

Sonny Bono is dead!
Can't tell if you're kidding or not - he meant "Bono" of the group "U2" . .. :nod:

Have flowers or a gift basket sent to the Arena she is playing! I have a giftbasket Business and sent a basket to her in L.A. and freaked out that I was in her dressing room leaving it on her make up table. So..I know these things do get delivered to where they need to get to!! TRUE STORY!!! Good Luck Janis!!!
P.S. Send it over the day before she plays..cuz you know she will be there rehearsing..that way she will get it before other gifts arrive on opening nite!!!!!!
Janis - I think BlackWidow may be "onto something" with the rehearsal thing -
Stevie will probably be much more "accessible" (and feel that way) and have more time to talk on a rehearsal day, rather than on "Show Day."

No. Not that I agree with Ghost_Trackers "exaggeration" if you wanna call it that but you specifically said STEVIE was NOT a big star...ANYMORE.
Comparing her to Boner? yeah BONE-UGH. please. he's more concerned with his political bullshit and making headlines for himself then Stevie is.
You don't have to be in the news every day to be a 'big' star.
At least Stevie *has* a [relatively] loyal fanbase.
And if they want to think she's bigger than Jesus..who cares :D
Uhhh - Bono's a big, whoppingly huge star outside of America - in Europe, for example. Check it out, this guy's "doing HUGE numbers!" :shocked:
But he ain't as cute as Stevie. :lol:

Do you have a point?. However that is irrelevant, as is your dislike for Bono. How does this make his approach (and his security's approach) towards the fans less relevant?
.
You might think this is silly at first, but think about it, k? And I hope I won't catch hell for this - but think about what I'm really saying.
Bono's a guy. He's STRONG. Maybe not Arnie, but he can "take care of himself."
Stevie, while she can "move like lightning" when she wants to, being a dancer and all that, and while she's physically strong - doesn't exactly bench-press 200 pounds. And she's an attractive woman. I'm not saying there's no attractive women out there who can bench press 200 pounds but -
in the past, there's been at least one kidnapping threat, and it was taken VERY seriously. I'm not sure if I remember this right, but I seem to remember that Stevie was contacted by the FBI.
There's concerns.
That MAY have resulted in Stevie hiring an expensive, "no-nonsense" security firm, and/or it may have resulted in her feeling less comfortable interacting with fans, at least under certain circumstances. Those things together mean that if one wants to get a message to Stevie when she's busy touring, one has to go about it cautiously.

Yeah but does Bono carry a stilletto in his garter ,along with everythnig else that he carries? As far as Arnie goes have you seen him without a shirt lately ?He'd be hard pressed to put up 200 lbs .

Now I am gonna sound like a whiny, fussy, baby and say stuff I have been harboring for ages. Stevie's "people" are twa*s! They are what keep MORE fans from meeting Stevie. Yea, they have a job to do and yadda, yadda, yadda, but their "protecting" her for all these years have made Stevie 500 times more sheltered than she needs to be. For every "psycho" fan attempting to meet Stevie, you get 10x's more stories from devoted folk who just try to be courtesous and meet her and get the shaft for their effort. Whereas I can't say that Janis should say anything, cause I agree how lucky she was to have met SN, I still say that if Stevie had one notion of the crap her people (or her friggin brother for that matter) pull with her fans, she'd be dismayed. Perhaps it's that very reason why SN turns a blind eye.
I'd say just leave it, and instead devote that attention and effort into meeting her again. Make us Ledgies even more irate that one person got to meet their idol not once but twice. :rolleyes: :p

Send stevie and sharon, and jana flowers each the day BEFORE the concert to Rod laver areana with a nice note to each!
And in regards to the edge walk, i am in the first three rows for melbourne and newcastle so i shall do that too.
Oh and i didn't talk with stevie for 10minutes.... (WOW), just 60seconds i think... a blur now :lol: ... so sureal!

And in regards to posts... its the same way, im not good at summarising what im thinking and taking a moment to how what i say is interpreted to others around me and online... :o I have to learn to be careful....

Jayne, Please know that this comes from my heart and is not meant to offend you in any way. I totally respect your feelings :).
Thank you Sapphire, i trust and believe you when you say it... :xoxo:
That being said...DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LUCK YOU ARE THAT YOU MET STEVIE NICKS AND GOT A PICTURE WITH HER??
I know Sapphire, i NEVER with entire honesty NEVER meant to rub it in to anyone or ...uno stuff (told my thoughts into words aint the best)
Regardless of the circumstances, how you were treated, and what occurred with the people around her YOU GOT TO MEET YOUR IDOL. Do you have any idea how many people would have died to be in your shoes and to have such an opportunity?
Yes, you see i knew afterwards and even on the walk to the tent especially how very fortunate i was, i KNEW that there were many more dedicated LONG decade term fans that deserved such as occassion so very much more than myself... this is why i just couldn't bring myself to post for couple of days afterwards... i knew ledgies were waiting for me to come back and share the experience and my extraudinary tales but i just couldn't do it. I came back and posted breify on the monday and explained my absense, and to my absolute surprise got some gorgeous support and beautiful posts, and one person in particula sent me such a lovely pm that i just snapped back into reality (hope you know who you are). in short: i got depressed after it, couldn't enjoy the massive blessings i had received as i got caught in something else yuk, i only just started in the last few weeks able to open the photo, soon im finally going to print it off..
Who cares what took place around her. You got what you wanted and were in her presence for a half hour was it? I am one of the lucky ones who met her briefly after an FM show for a meet and greet but due to very unfortunate circumstances I was never emailed the picture that was taken but you know what? Instead of being mad at how I was treated I treasured that moment I had with her and will forever hold it near and dear to my heart. Do you know how painful it was that I did not receive the picture that was promised of me and my beloved Stevie?
How :( .... im so saddened to hear that.... For me I dont know how to explain it... I am not MAD at the people around her... Can i make some sense at saying that i was made to firstly feel like a peice of dirt, made to feel so very small, then after this warm up in shame was snapped at so very rudely right in front of her and in front of other people and it just crushed me right there in that moment. I haven't felt that way since the highschool dramas.... I walked out depressed, and i was telling myself because i knew that in that moment i should of gone, yep that was a bit weird, and those people are crap, but wow i cant believe what just happened, OMG i just met her, she held my hands, suggested a photo, had a laugh with me.... yet my esteem was so shattered that i couldn't overcome it.... This post is getting long, but as brief as i can say it: why i was so shocked was that dale and i were dressed well, we speak well, have good jobs, house in a respectable suburb, drive good cars etc (all that crap), yet i had a lady after i so very politely and elequently told her when she asked how i came to be there, answered that i had a friend of a friend get me into the tent as they knew i was a stevie fan say back to me "oh i didn't realise they were letting the (add tone) general public in"
It’s just a tad bit disheartening to hear about you being upset when you got an opportunity that most people can only dream about. I hope you understand where I am coming from :xoxo:.
And i do, this is why i try to say little of negative, as what you say is absolutely true, i find it cruel to bring it up as yes many people would of done so much to of been where i was on that day, and that is what i try to remember and being on the ledge makes me appreciate it so much more... Without the ledge i wouldn't of been in that tent, and i wouldn't of been able to appreciate that day... I never meant to complain in the thread about "how i got to meet stevie, unlucky me" just to say that i wanted to get a note to her and explained why i wanted to as i never got tell her what her what her and music meant to me etc... I have learnt from the fmac tour and that lucky day in november, that if you "push it to the limit" things do come..... and i know that if i dont push to get that messgae to her that i will have those terible thought... the "if only i and the regrets
I believe its Australias last time....
PHEW 50 minute post!! :laugh: ...see this is why i dont make no sense all the time... i spend max like 2 mins with all my posts, and my typing aint as fast as the thinking.... so i stuff up ALL the time.... ok its 11.06pm time for bed! :laugh:

But it wasn't Stevie who was personally rude to you. I'm sorry you were hurt and no one wants to feel belittled or like a piece of dirt but you know what, it's a part of life. There are rude people out there (especially when it comes to wealthy people and the entertainment business) but there is not a damned thing you or I can do about it. I feel bad that these people diminished your Stevie experience but it happened and I think you need to accept it and move on. I know it's easy for me to say but trust me I've been in a similar position and eventually you just have to get over it. Writing Stevie a letter explaining to her what happened - I just don't see the point. You are not going to change these people and I'm sure Stevie knows what goes on around her, it's a part of the business (and their job) and that doesn’t make her a bad person. Trust me, I live in Los Angeles and I know how these people can be. Don't take it personally sweetie. That being said I still think writing a letter telling her what you wanted to tell her when you met her is a great idea! I just don't think telling her the part about what happened at the races and your negative experience is going to serve any purpose.

I think maybe posting a thread about ANYTHING in here is bound to result in discussion about all SORTS of things other than the original subject. Just check out my thread about "Stevie likes pumpkin pies" and let's see what happens! :laugh: But really though, I'd like to point something out - I admit I was a little "worried" at first and maybe even paranoid, but - there's now been over 100 responses to your post. Most of those were people trying to be helpful, and were more-or-less kind. My only point is, there's a LOT of support out there between Stevie fans, which is one thing that makes her great. (Because I feel that a part of that is a reflection of her personality and her feelings for her fans.)
Trying to think how to phrase what I'm trying to say....hmmmmm...
Well, just that you gotta "take the bad with the good" sometimes, and, even if there was a problem that needed to be solved, there were dozens of fellow Stevie fans that tried to help you out in one way or another, and shared other experiences that THEY'VE had, in order to try to help you feel better and to help you get your message to Stevie. So in addition to getting to meet Stevie, and in addition to having the hope of speaking with her again or at least getting a letter to her, you have the support of all these dozens of other fans. So maybe you're fortunate in THAT way, too! :nod:
Imagine you were an Ozzy Ozborne fan? Maybe they'd be like,
"Well F 'em then!!! RAWK ONNN, DUUUUDE!!!!" :laugh:

You see that is what it is... it is the support i got from the ledgies that made it fabulous! the actual event wasn't as such but because of the great support and especially when ledgies throw things out of left field and take the funny fun side of everything is what makes the biggest difference of all! Sometimes you need someone to look at it from another direction, another point of view that can change ones entire experience...
IT is what i enjoy the most :woohoo: ... i think that most of us here know that yes we love stevie and fmacs music, but this group of people highten the experience.. it just wouldn't be the same if it wasn't for the ledge.... :thumbsup:
People's experience and suggestions was exactly what i asked for, it is through this that great things come.... so when should i expect Stevie for dinner? :laugh:

I think if you're going to write her a letter, just wait until <i>after</i> the shows. Unless you're the kind of person who can separate your feelings. :shrug: I would just go to the shows and enjoy the moments, then worry about sending a letter afterward. It's not like if you did get a letter to her beforehand that she would pick you out of the crowd or try to get in touch with you while in Australia. So, my advice is to please have fun- you've spent a small fortune on these shows.

But in your original post you said this:
A long time fan of stevie's told me to send her a letter explaining how i felt and why as stevie would not be happy to know what took place around her...
I interpreted that to mean that you were going to say something in the letter about what took place around her with her people that day and my point was that I didn't think that would serve any purpose. I guess I misunderstood. Anyway I wish you the best of luck my dear! Please let us know what happens with the letter. I'll be rooting for you :thumbsup:.

I do need to try and focus on enjoying the shows... I remember in 04 i was trying so hard to get good pics for the ledge and for me that i was focussing on that waaayy too much, i missed so much of the show because i had my eyes on a camera screen... and every amazing part i'd see i felt as though i was wasting it if i didn't take a pic.... Its a hardy
. I wonder how people video a show... to me it is such a sacrifice to do that just so others can see it too.
Yes Sapphire i understand when i read it it does come across that way, i just quickly types it without thinking of interpretation, i didn't pay much attention to what i was typing as that part wasn't my point and therefore got everyone confused. It is true that a long time fan with whom i am going to melbourne, sydney and newcastle with told me to write her a letter and tell her the things i missed out on saying and why in summary it came to be that way...
Boy if i'd said it the right way it would of not wasted many peoples time :(
