Hello fellow Canadian fans, I have been inspired by the thread about the Bouncy Ball World Tour and was thinking it would be a really cool idea to give something to the band from all of us up here in Canada. My thoughts were to get a big Canadian flag, send it out across Canada and get as many Ten Club fans to sign it, using their message pit user names with a little message. The band is always signing stuff for us, so I thought it would be really neat to have us sign something for them. We could try to have this all done by Christmas and send it off to the band. My wife is also on the forum, she and I would organize it and make sure that each person knew where they were sending it off to next, maybe even pass it off to others in the same towns. What do you guys think? Just want to gauge interest and then if people are wanting to do it, we will set it up and get it organized.....

    ...Not sure where I was that day....

    I'd do it...Only because I'm usually pretty anti-social and I think this could be a good exercise for me...

    And to the guy above me...I don't think Washington is in Canada...

    You misread the post?! That is one of the funniest things I've seen on here : )

    How could you misread that post?! It was explicitly about Canada and Canadians? Too funny.

    :lol::lol: Love your passion and excitement though :thumbup:

    Great idea, I'm in. Also, if there is a CDN tour, as rumoured, you could arrange to have it at the pre-parties for signing.

    If it was at the pre-parties, you'd get everyone signing it...and I think I speak for all the Canadians when I say we don't want any Americans signing our flag :D
