YOU AND ONE GUEST ARE CONFIRMED TO ATTEND:

You and your guest will be on the Red Carpet Pre-Show segment of the show.
You will be in Special Bleachers and will be part of ALL of the action.

The Red Carpet portion of the show is before the show starts.
Because you will still be on the Red Carpet when the show starts, there is a chance we may not be
able to get you in to the live show, so you would leave AFTER the Red Carpet portion is done.

There is NO other option at this time. It is not 100% that you will NOT get in to the show, we just need to preface that. We are going to do everything we can to make sure everyone gets in to the show. However, if you are not interested in doing this, we will need to take you off the list completely.

sketchy?



Answer
Not necessarily a scam.

They want unpaid regular people as "background" and "seat fillers".

When camera crews shoot video and pictures of celebs, they want the background of the picture to be full of nicely dressed, pretty people and this is how they get those background people. They don't want people chatting at cell phones, PDAs, listening to ipods, etc, they want people standing around chatting with each other and looking interested in what is going on. That is the reason for "no white clothes" and "no logos". White doesn't show well in pictures or video and logos would be have to be fuzzed out due to advertising issues.

After all the invited celebs are let into the event, they check for empty seats and start filling them with people like you. Ever notice how all awards ceremonies always are completely full? Never a single empty seat? This is how the event planners fill those single, empty seats, with regular people like you. If you get in, after being "background" for pictures, you will be seated by yourself, no where near your friend.

You have to meet that far away from the event so they can bus you in, you will be stuck there for hours, before and after the event, unable to leave due to security and the huge number of people there. After the event it will be more hours before you can catch the shuttle back to your car or a public transportation stop.

If you have always wanted to spend half a day at an awards ceremony without any electronic communication device, no access to food or water, have no idea where the bathroom is, be in the background of dozens/hundreds/thousands of picture and video but never identified in any photo or video, be seated away from anyone you know in a huge auditorium, wait hours to get home and do all this for no money and no recognition, then this is for you. If not, skip it all.

Name that Asian boy band!?




Brendan


Forewarning: this is a tricky one..
I was recently in Thailand and saw a music video for an Asian boy band but I can't remember their name or the song's name either.
The video was set at night inside what looked like a hotel or office building in the middle of a large city. The video was based around them breaking into the building. There were a few fish-eye shots of one of the guys looking into a security camera.. Most of the scenes were of the band members running from, and beating up American looking guards... And at the end of the video, they played their song with instruments at the top of the building.
The music was up-tempo pop... They reminded me alot of the backsteet boys' rock influenced ballads. Most of the singing was done in their native language (Japanese?) but a few lines were in English.
I'm pretty sure this was on an international Top Music Video Countdown (Middle of May, 2011) so I'm assuming it's pretty recent and fairly popular. Ive looked everywhere but can't seem to find the video. Any ideas on who they are and what song it is?

It might be CN Blue- I'm a loner.
