Adancy 0 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 The 8am rule is ****ed up and has never worked. Solidarity is what is needed. Is everyone familiar with what happened in Stockholm the first day? In brief explanation some people didn't respect the system and went in line even before it was time for it. Lack of communication with the arena and HAUS. In the end when the venue were done. The guards just told us to get in line wherever we were. I was pushed in and was quite confused. The monster pit basically started already outside. People were crying, shouting, arguing. It was horrible. The arena doesn't give out the rules. And the communication with HAUS sucks. You can come earlier, but think about solidarity. Some people can't come earlier than 8AM. But either way. If your first in line. People will know it, and when it comes to HAUS, they will ask who came first and everyone will be honest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a full time student that works one, sometimes two, jobs to support myself and my concert going and living needs. People who say there are going to camp out for a week or days before the concert, props to u, but let me ask u something. Do u think it's fair to those of us with duties and responsibilities for you to COMPLETELY ignore and disrespect ground rules set by the HAUS and the venue? Not to mention disrespecting your fellow monsters and their chances of getting into the pit? This has been a thorn in my side ever since the day I heard people were camping out over a week in advance. RIDICULOUS. Moral of the story/opinion: be respectful and give others a chance. I want to meet GaGa and be in the Monster Pit so bad I'm already having anxiety dreams about not being able to. I have been waiting since summer of '08/winter of '09 to meet her. It's not fair for those of us with the liberty to do so to forsake our daily responsibilities and not give those of us who cannot do so a fair chance. I know I will probably not even make it until 8 a.m. because it's going to be winter, in Chicago, and I have school. So as one little monster to other little monsters: please respect everyone and try to think of others before you decide to shut people out before the appropriate time.

I haven't agreed with the whole idea of camping either. Yeah, I get the whole concept that she put behind the Pit but like us that don't have a chance to camp for days on end that makes us look like the "not so dedicated fans". Some of us have jobs like you said. I'm having to travel about 3 hours to get to anywhere close to where she'll probably come around my area, maybe more if I have to travel into another state. The most I'd be able to camp is overnight the night before and that's it. I'm hoping because ours are going to be in the middle of winter/early spring there won't be that many people but I just have this feeling there'll be that one person that gets there before me and my friends. And I don't think it's fair that people have friends/family save their spot so they can go back to a hotel/home and sleep. If you're going to camp out do it properly. To me that's not at all dedication like some of these fans are claiming it to be. Edited September 2, 2012 by GagaPixie Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there. But then I realized there is nothing to do about it. Gaga herself told some fans before us that she didn't understand the rule herself, that she isn't the one setting up these 8am rules. She wants everyone to have fun. She is performing, the rest goes to the HAUS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omg are you serious, these people aren't going to go without a shower for like a week. It's not possible to stay in 1 place for a whole week. They have to shower, use the bathroom and eat. Shut up.

I think what GaGapixie was trying to get at was fans are saying they are "camping out" a week in advance when in reality they get there and then have someone save their spot so they can do whatever they want/need to do, yet fans who don't have the option of lining people up to save their first spot in line are being marked as "undedicated".

gagaforgaga2010 117 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Do you expect people not to shower or use the bathroom?? No, but I also don't expect people to line up two weeks before the show either. why can't we all just follow the 8 a.m rule? would make so much more sense and be a hell of a lot more fair.

Hey now-- your post would've been just as effective without the rudeness, that was unnecessary. GagaPixie is allowed to peacefully share her views without being told to "shut up".

I believe if you have a Government Hooker package, you can line up for the Monster Pit, however you will not be able to claim your merchandise included with said package because you will have to be in the GA line instead of the VIP line Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
