sooo,speaking english .haha

你都还没回答打算怎么弄请愿呢....

额，我也不知道

We (Chinese fans) plan to have a petition sent to Australia and have already started writing letters. Anyone can tell me how many signatures are we supposed to get? I know the more the better, but since all the fans live in different places, it's not easy to collect signatures. We have started an activity that calls on the fans to send what she/he wants to say to The Vines to one person then this person will pack all the letters and send them to Australia.
Will it work? Anyone can tell me if there are more we need to do? Thank you!!!

probably over 1000 will do, there was a petition from Mexico that had 3000 sigs

for the letter thing, just send all the letters to c/o their management, air mail maybe a bit expensive though

Thanks a lot Kate!! You're always so helpful!!

>1000 wow it's not an easy task.

Pros: China has 1.1 billion people

Cons: Chinese Vines fans live all over the place

maybe try a facebook group

yeah only a few of us live in the same city
I know some fans in my city who are crazy about The Vines as I am but I haven't even met them yet. We just discussed this plan on the internet and started out an online activity called Let's write to The Vines, hoping it can call on fans from all over the country to join us together.

most unfortunately facebook is banned by the Great Firewall of China

This is what I hate about communism: censorship of media

yeahh,that's really make me mad !!!

yeah communism also drives me crazy sometimes.
The communist party loathes people being too free i guess
But I love my country, so I'm not gonna complain, just hope such kind of situation will get better some day.
still we can use some helpful software to climb over the Great Firewall

Yeah I like communism, like Marxist or Trotskyist views but not when citizens have to be oppressed

and hurrah for proxies

Mmm Marxism is a compulsory course in every college in China... but I find it boring

Yep hurrah for proxies!!

Marxism made Modern History instantly boring, especially with the Leon Trotsky topic

I can't agree more

well we better stop talking about communism and start getting the Vines over China ASAP

yep


I'm dying to see their live play in China one day!

We should make up a checklist of places to tour, requested by fans and send it to them

CAMDEN NEW JERSEY
PHILLY PA

PHILADELPHIA PENNSYLVANIAA!! THE VINES HAVE TO COME TO PHILLY!!!! PLEAAAAAAASSSEE

I'll start planning on composing an open letter to the Vines, with requests of places to tour...

good idea!

count China in!

sure thing

I'm not sure if this is right but i just got a message from FACEBBOOK and if it is OMFG!!!!

EDIT: I just looked at the ticketmaster website it looks suss

Er, my house, Cameron Texas? Nah, anywhere in Texas would be cool. Maybe they'll play SXSW again?

What's the closest city? Dallas or Houston? Or Austin?

Austin.

Okay then. I'll might add Houston and Dallas as well

Why are they always using different names?

how are you sure of this?

maybe jess might cofirm it later but i dont think i it, i aint too much of a fan of you am i, and the skybombers

well they already use an alias for a secret show in 2006

maybe this is the surprise that Jess was talking about

I'm going anyway so The Vines will be a HUUUUUGE bonus.

good luck and have fun...

Wow, hope it's true and not a rumor. It'd be great to get some new footage/pics/reviews.

Well You Am I and Red Riders are play A Day In The Park at Cronulla on the 14th as well.

But it on during the day, hopefully they won't be exhausted.

that is amazing. i feel like they would do that again. that probably is the news that jessica was talking about. and that is cool that they have that picture of craig on the annandale website. the crimes is in quotes and it says "with VERY special geust"

further evidence I guess

It also says on their home page "The Crimes...hmm, who are they?"

If anyone goes say hi to me. I'll be taking photos. I'm short and wear glasses.

Oh cool

Adds more suspicion

This may sound weird, but I'm thinking that Craig will be inside a cardboard box on stage, covered in wrapping paper and jump out yelling 'SURPRISE!!!'

And can't wait for the photos

EDIT:



More clues...

Just to clear up any confusion I don't mean 3 Vines shows, just 1.

We know, we know...

Imagine all the media outlets is Australian music responding to it...

Who's shooting The Vines?

The new girl.

Why is she going to shoot them? Did they do something wrong to her?

no, silly

she's taking photos of them

I know. That was a lame joke.

It made me lol.
