Im being forced to attend tommorows N'sync concert....(pics inside)

because im the lowest in seniority at my newspaper and no one else wants to photograph it. 🙁 🙁 🙁


This sucks.

Although I did tour their stage today at Heinz field (pittsburgh), where they will be playing, since its the first event at the new stadium. I gotta say, their set is VERY impressive. Main stage is about 95 feet tall (we went up-a first for journalists!!!), and during the performance, they "fly" via cables about 150 feet down to a second stage. The media fact sheet says the whole shabang cost about 10 million and another million/week to run and maintain the tour.

Crappy or not in music, I cant deny the fact that they have the money and are using it to the fullest.

Interesting notes:

188 speakers
over 400 independent moving lights with computers in each one
950,000 watts of power generated-enough to power a small city



oh well. kill me now, and dont forget to stuff me with earplugs. 🙁

No female raving lunatics willing to go?

See if you can hook up with a chick that's being forced to take her little sister.
 
Suffer in your jocks!!!

N'Suck

Just ensure to photograph all the intoxicated 14yo girls and post that in the review that N'Suck like to get underage people drunk and take advantage of them 🙂 LOL that would be funny

&quot;No female raving lunatics willing to go?

hah, the only female on our staff is like 35. the hot chicks will be the only good thing about this crap, and they are all underage anyways, unless you subscribe to the &quot;as long as there is grass on the field, play ball&quot; mentality. 😀

I was thinking of wearing a shirt that says either &quot;STAFF&quot; or &quot;Rolling Stones&quot; and see if I could get laid. 😀

haha, only if you are a fudgepacker. 😉
 
My heart goes out to you on this fateful night. I highly - HIGHLY - recommend inbibing offensive amounts of alcohol before hand to alleviate the pain you will enevitably be subject to during the night's proceedings.
 


<< haha, only if you are a fudgepacker. >>


If I was a fudgepacker I would already have tickets to the show.

😉
 
188 speakers

Holy crap, now that's just a little too excessive, imho. I personally would not attend, just for the reason that if I did, I wouldn't be able to hear for the rest of my life.

over 400 independent moving lights with computers in each one

Now that sounds fun. I've always been interested in computer controlled lighting.

950,000 watts of power generated-enough to power a small city

Where the heck do they get all that from? Do they have their own portable power station?
 
Yeah you should definantly wear a shirt that says &quot;Security&quot; on it. Or you can walk around the audience the whole time and find attractive women and be like, &quot;I'm an undercover security guard and I was just...&quot; and maybe trip and grope her a bit, you know, whatever.
 
950KW isn't that much.

We have an 80MW generator to power one unit. We also have a 100,000 HP gas turbine to run a compressor. Big stuff that makes a lot of noise.

oh my, if I just wasnt getting paid for this and people werent depending on me for the front page of sundays paper. 🙁 🙁 🙁


But thank you for your condolensces. 🙂


BTW-if you want to see pics of their set, check www.triblive.com now or in a few hours for tommorows paper online. I cant post it here due to confidentiality agreements.

SHADDUP!!!!! :| 🙂



950K watts of power may not be much compared to a lot of things,but just for entertaining a crowd, it seems a lot to me. The fact sheet says they do make their own power via 3 generators.



who the hell is deeko? 😕
 


<< SHADDUP!!!!! >>


No, sorry! It wasn't an attack on you, I meant I would have bought the tickets myself 😀
 
hey - on a lot of different levels, it's a great opportunity, make it work for you and have fun with it. Try not to appear as if you have found hell on earth or you'll turn all the women off. Tap your toe every now and then. 😉 Look forward to the results of your terrible ordeal once they're developed, hope you post them!!

Im not actually that dead-set against going...im just dreading it, fearing the worst.

And I cant post pics due to the confidentiality agreement....but do look at triblive.com and see whats up there tommorow morning and sunday morning. 🙂
 
You have my DEEPEST condolences. Idea: Sell your press pass (if it's one time use only and has no photo) to somebody. They can &quot;go backstage for an interview&quot;. Easy $100.
 
oh the pain....such great pain that I can almost feel it. Its like watching someone get kicked in the nuts on TV. Ouch.


Bring a nice CD player with good headphones and some actual music. If you're luck N'Stink will turn into background noise.

Taking picures of those ugly mofos can't be fun though...
 
I agree just bring your walkman or on of thos portable TV's that have headphone jacks

hehe..could have been worse..

could have been O Town or the Backdoor boys
