  1. I was so excited when I got this news in my inbox today. I thought "Whow! It's tailor-made for Al!" André's not coming to Vancouver but I thought I'd sign up for somewhere and just have to find a way to go if I do win. But I didn't like the way their registration form was set up. There's not a Canadian province for address to select so I quit. Also I learnt that the camera is about $139. I wonder how good those pics can be but they didn't say you HAVE to take pics with that Nikon. Big fans bought tickets months ago. Giving out free camera, tickets and autograph to someone who has not even bought tickets yet? or give out to their friends? In any case it's fun for those going to some concert(s) this coming US/Canada Tour and whether or not Al signed up for this, or ever randomly chosen, he IS our official photographer... with a VERY SERIOUS camera.

    Alice, I agree with you, Al is THE PHOTOGRAPHER, I have never met him but his photographs are the best. Hope he wins anyway,

  3. I agree with Alice. If the Rieu Organization is going to run a contest for Canada & the USA....it should have the proper form to fill out. There should have been room for the Canadian Province.

    As far as the camera.... I understand that there will be cameras given away for EVERY concert on the tours. That means lots of cameramen. (We all know that Al would be the #1, if there was a choice )

    What confuses me is that most of us have already bought our tickets. What do we do with our existing tickets, if we are chosen?

  4. Alice, is there a way to kind of "force" feed the province in the form - like adding it to the city field or something? I know the form didn't quite work for U.S. address formats, either, but we'll see. C'mon, Alice - if you had a backstage pass to take pictures BEFORE the concert, I know you'd do it! ;-)

  5. This is just to promote the concerts. No purchase is necessary. Of course if someone already has tickets he or she can keep those and get two more.

    It's just a nice way to involve fans and to get some attention for the concerts.
