    wow what an amazing card. and the answer was amazing too.
    I love I'm Open. So many times when i've been very miserable, the song has helped me.
    The last line "Dream up a new self, for himself" is one of my favourite lyrics of all time

    My favourite bit is:
    "when he was six he believed that the moon overhead followed him, by nine he deciphered the illusion, trading magic for fact ... no tradebacks. So this is what it's like to be an adult ... if he only knew now, what he knew then ..."

    Brilliant!!!!

    Sorry, having problems with my scanner but got this yesterday!!! Thanks so much Ellen!!!

    My Question was:
    Has anyone on here suspected they had a response from the actual band.

    Answer:

    Hey Loulou,
    Not that I know of.....
    I doubt they would. I can imagine they might read some of it... I know I would :)
    All the best for 2011

    And there was this little message on the side:
    "It's Evolution Baby"
    (Coming from the speakers as I write this)
    Thanks so much was awesome to recieve it and my hubby was excited too!! :lol::lol:

    My pleasure! I enjoyed writing them ... and it's exciting to see them pop up here. Thanks!

    I need to get the last batch out ... sorry to those who have to wait this long. This is turned into a little bigger project than I anticipated. Then again, it's also way more fun than expected! :)

  • got mine yesterday!!! Thanks Ellen :D
    Since I suck at posting pics here, I received a Vitalogy postcard with a skeleton figure on the front.
    My question was: If you could see our boys play at any venue, where would it be, and who would you choose to open the show?
    Answer: "How about m living room? :D No? OKay then...How about Tivoli, Paradiso or another really remote venue, filled with 10c members only. I already saw them in Verona, that was really special too. I'd go for Kings of Leon to open the show..."
    Thanks again Ellen, made my day! And nice choices by the way :thumbup:

    I got my post card on Saturday...my scanner is being picky so....

    question: which band member was the first to cut off all their hair?
    Answer: there was more than one?

    :lol:

    that was really fun Ellen...thanks so much!

    Thanks! And I was thinking just now, wouldn't the Tivoli be the ideal location for their 20 year celebration in Europe? :P Ed obviously has some fond memories of the place. :)

    Wow, this is becoming more and more exciting, day by day and obviously, I can't wait to receive mine!

    I was just amazed to see all the cards received so far and wonder how did you collect them all??
    I've never seen any of them around and they all look SO good!

    Congratulations on your great idea and patience! :)

    As it happens ... I just sent yours out this morning. ;)

    I'm trying to find as many I can. So far I have found 23 different ones, most of which I found on ebay ... so if anyone has any others, they're more than welcome. I have the details for a shop in the Netherlands that sells most of the ones I have, but I wanted to wait until everyone has received their cards to post it, otherwise the surprise is gone ... but if you can't wait, send me a pm. :)
