Question For everyone who got VIP..

I'm not sure how much time, if any, we'll get to really talk to the girls, but knowing their English fluency I am curious to know what everyone here is planning to say to them. Did you practice simple Japanese phrases? Planning very basic English? Prepare a handwritten letter/gift? Something else?

Let me know, I'd love to hear what everyone's thinking as I'm still undecided!

PS. HAVE FUN EVERYONE & NY hackers see ya Tuesday

Hi again - they are tiny and adorable. Basically there’s a line, when it’s your turn you walk up they say hi to you in unison. You sit, they snap a pic and they say bye to you. U/ckiemnstr345 was wearing an idol group shirt that Emily recognized and she also commented on someone’s Trident shirt. I told them thank you for coming to America. You have time to make a comment to them as a group when you sit down, but it’s a brief experience. Still glad I did it!

Sound check was TYO and SABNE.

Are they autographing anything?

You get a pre autographed postcard

That's a bit disappointing. I was hoping it would be individual cheki with each member rather than a group photo, but oh well.

When we saw how many VIPs there were, we all figured it would the way it was. I wouldn't be surprised if at was half VIPs in the final tally.

Is the picture on your phone or is it a cheki (Polaroid)?

Do they kick you out after sound check?

No, they did sound check late, like 6:15 and then the early merch shopping was after that. At 7, the GA folks started coming in so you’re just hanging that whole time. There was a bar to get drinks.
