Opening Ceremony Newspaper Help, by eschiff on Jul 25, 2012 14:41:35 GMT 1, Hi all,
So I'm performing in the opening ceremony on fri, it's been a crazy 6 months of rehearsals but I think we're ready and it's going to be spectacular.
I was just wondering if any forum members living abroad (I have UK/US covered) would be able to grab me the newspaper from your country on the Saturday? Hoping to put together a nice collage.
Of course would pay for paper and shipping.
Thanks!

But I'm in it for the first 15 minutes 9-9:15 here in London. Really think its going to make people proud of England. It amazes me a group of 10k volunteers is putting this on. I perform with a grandma from Wales, student from Columbia, businessman from Korea, all walks of life and really representative of London.
I know the sponsors and all that sucks. But there still is se genuine Olympic spirit out there and it's pretty damn cool to be apart of!

It's quite a buzz isn't it. If you get any spare newspaper cuttings they'd be much appreciated and would sort you out with a pint or two. Cheers.

Loved the James Bond and Queen bit - really funny. Great selection of music too. Well done to Danny Boyle and everyone else involved. Proud to be British tonight.
