Good enough I think.

Great idea about the photobucket account melman:thumb_yello:

And i totally agree with having pics in the timeline for the Paris and Beirut gigs, these two concerts were obviously really important to him.

OK going to check the photobucket account right now!

I think we should at least put every award show, no matter if he won something or not.

I think we should put the Disc d'Or thing aswell. Not sure about the Carphone party though...

About the summertours, I think we can put them all, as there was nothing else in July.

Yay! Other people's opinions!

Okay about it all! But do you think we'll have room for them all? It can't be too big

Yay, thats something different than: I agree! On everything huh?

Oh I don't know. But otherwise July is so empty!

Shall we ask Melanie?

Well I'm not saying we should just put the Paris gig and the Beirut one

I guess there aren't that many...

Then we have the dvd and the EMAs of this year

we should add the disques d'or in between the things but I don't remember the date

And maybe we should ask Melanie for the size of the Timeline (how many pages)+ for the award pics IMO

If we can't put all the summergigs, I think we should put only the Paris and Beirut one. But I think we can put all the summerdates.

Oh right, the dvd! I just wanted to say that. But I hope we will know the releasedate soon, otherwise we might run out of time.

I can look for the thread of the Disc d'Or thing if you want:bleh:

And maybe we should ask Melanie for the size of the Timeline (how many pages)+ for the award pics IMO

Good idea.

I really think we HAVE to use copyrighted pics. I mean, how many award pics are there taken by fans?

I think we should put some others! I mean, some other gigs were important or had special venues! Like the one where he sang les champs élysées (I'm only saying that because he said it in the vid himself ) and the Nîmes gig with the arena...and the Madrid gig with the MFCers...so many

Me too Well he said something about a teaser that'd be on the site "soon" but depends what he means by that

If you want to, I was going to look it up on the calendar

Good idea.

I really think we HAVE to use copyrighted pics. I mean, how many award pics are there taken by fans?

Yeah,but we should really ask before, just so Melanie's aware

Btw, about the pics, I was thinking we should pics that are a bit specific to each gig -not that close-ups ain't naahce - but we can't see why they're great or the changes btwn them there were-good?bad? shall I shut up?

But at some gigs you can't see that at all!

But at some gigs you can't see that at all!

What? The changes?

Good idea.

I really think we HAVE to use copyrighted pics. I mean, how many award pics are there taken by fans?

That doesn't matter. We don't own the copyright, so we don't have the

right to use the pics. That's what copyright means. I'm sorry to be such

a grown-up about it, but I'm a writer, and I would really resent it if someone

used my copywritten material without my permission. And legally it

could get us in trouble.

Now about the actual timeline -- last year, we had 4 pages. I don't

think we need more than that this year. We physically *can't* have

a photo for every event. That's why we need to be selective and

choose key events, with non-copyright photos.

January

 

--5 Les Disques d'or

What was this? Was it an award show he attended? I really have no

memory of this.

--8 Performs at Salt Lake City (acoustic gig because equipment stranded) *should this one stand out from the others?*

Could. We definitely can get a nice pic of this from CharlotteChristy.

10 Attends Grammy Awards in LA (nominated but doesn't win) *should we mention this one?*

I think it's enough to mention that he was nominated.

--26 Performs at Carphone Warehouse "Christmas Party" *should we put this one? It's kinda like a private party,so...*

I don't think this is that important to mention, esp since it was a private

gig.

May

--22 Wins Songwriter of the Year at Ivor Novello Awards

We actually have a fan pic of this -- hotdlp, I think, was there!

July

 

--3 Performs at Rock Werchter (should we put it?)

 

--4 Performs at Parc des Princes -- 1st Stadium gig 55,000 people!

*shall we put in the center of the timeline, or make it stand out?*

It definitely deserves special mention -- it was a HUGE deal!

*not so sure what to do with this bunch_we should include them but how *

 

--25 Performs at Jordan Festival Dead Sea

--27 Performs at Beiteddine Festival in Beirut

They are listed as official tour dates, so we definitely need to include

them. And I think we can come up with at least one fan photo

from the Beirut show, which clearly was very important to him.

He did a tv apparition in france-les Disques D'or- should we put it? He supposedly won something but that was a bit just for the sake of the show...

 

Otherwise, I was thinking that we could put more fan-stuff things, for example the award Ingie gave him? or more MFC things (meet ups etc.)?

I don't think that those things belong on the timeline. IMO the timeline

is the official timeline of meaningful professional dates -- the fan types

of things will go elsewhere in the book.

deb i agree with everything you said:thumb_yello:

 

Otherwise, I was thinking that we could put more fan-stuff things, for example the award Ingie gave him? or more MFC things (meet ups etc.)?

I really love the idea of putting more fan stuff in the timeline. The m&g's like the ones in Madrid and Amsterdam were really special and are definitely worth a mention even a pic in the timeline.

According to Melanie's pm one of us must pm her about the current status of our work, the idea's we came up with etc. Who's gonna do that?

Guys! We need to pick someone as Melanie mentioned it in the PM we have received. With school starting again (and it not being such an easy year), I don't think I can, I will log on less and less...Anyone else?

 

Now about the actual timeline -- last year, we had 4 pages. I don't

think we need more than that this year. We physically *can't* have

a photo for every event. That's why we need to be selective and

choose key events, with non-copyright photos.

Right, but should we mention all the gigs of the beginning of the year? Or just say that he toured here (with the first and the last gig of the tour> and have a pic for each ) plus highlighten the gig in Salt Lake City with anoter picture? Mmm.

 

What was this? Was it an award show he attended? I really have no

memory of this.

It wasn't so big actually.. Just a show where he sung BG and Relax and he won a gold disc(?) (the aim of the show being, who sold the most albums this year or something similar)

Could. We definitely can get a nice pic of this from CharlotteChristy.

Can you add some of her pics in the album so we can choose from there? Thanks (and we should also ask her for her authorisation)

I think it's enough to mention that he was nominated.

 

I don't think this is that important to mention, esp since it was a private

gig.

 

We actually have a fan pic of this -- hotdlp, I think, was there!

Yes,I agree, we have her pics in the photobucket album, and sure

 

They are listed as official tour dates, so we definitely need to include

them. And I think we can come up with at least one fan photo

from the Beirut show, which clearly was very important to him.

All of them? It might take a bit too much time which we don't have anymore.

I have Racha pics in the album for Beirut but we don't have pics for Jordan...

 

I don't think that those things belong on the timeline. IMO the timeline

is the official timeline of meaningful professional dates -- the fan types

of things will go elsewhere in the book.

 

dcdeb

I see your point but I was thinking it could be a bit more personal with fan things, you know? Even if it's just pics of MFCers as BG and Mika/ the stage, that sort of stuff.

According to Melanie's pm one of us must pm her about the current status of our work, the idea's we came up with etc. Who's gonna do that?

I don't know if someone did that, I mean Melanie could have checked the yearbook threads and just seeing it could have given her the feeling, you know? Anyway, if it did happen, it could be understandable, we're one month close to the deadline and let's face it,nothing accurate has been done, one of the reasons being the fact everyone wasn't there. Now it's going to be even harder IMO with everyone working but what is done is done and the least we can do is try to finish it as well as possible.

Before I forget, we should choose from the designs ideas that were posted (unless someone else has an idea)
