Beautiful Loser

Just letting you know that I moved this thread to “Lana thougts” since I think it fits better here than in the news section. Thanks for the list! It’ll definitely be useful to go back to, haha.

I just want to add a small note regarding using English. This is an online fan forum, with fans from all over the world. Some of us here have grown up hearing, speaking and reading English since we were toddlers, while others have been taught in school (or elsewhere) and are still learning. I'm confident in my English language skills, but I, too, am still learning. There are still times when I go back and edit something I've written that could've been formulated better. Some of LanaBoards' users are 40 years old or older, some of the users here are 15 (or perhaps even younger - I'm not sure since we don't really have data on it). What I mean to say is that it's only natural that we're on different skill levels when it comes to mastering a language, so please be kind to each other here. I want everyone to feel welcome to share their thoughts and excitement, even if they're not very confident in writing in English. This website is an excellent place to have fun while practicing your English. The guidelines encourages all users to use English so everyone can have the opportunity to join a discussion and not feel left out. Now, I hope we can leave this behind us and continue being hyped for the album!

I think she'll butcher the French language tbh

Friendly reminder to follow the guidelines and use English when writing posts. <3

I’m honestly surprised the UK allows festivals and concerts lol, but maybe it’s just me who’s afraid of catching the virus and spreading it, I dunno. I’m definitely the only one in class wearing a mask when we have lectures on campus and group meetings. I’d love to go to concerts but, well, I’m just not comfortable enough to go yet although I’m fully vaccinated.

Yeah it’s a shame, going to a (cheap!) concert in their hometown would’ve been awesome. It’s just that the delta variant of the virus honestly scares me, and then I have an exam on the day before or on the same day as the concert, which doesn’t make it easier for me to go lol.

I listened through the new album last week, I think I’ll do again today or next week! I need to familiarize myself with it more.

So I've been thinking and I'm gonna sell my tickets for Inhaler's Dublin concert on December 21st. Let me know if you're interested, I thought I'd ask you guys here first since we all really like their music.

@moonbeam monsoon Thank you for the likes!

Aw, thank you!

For a uni assignment. I felt like making a creepy fish boy so here he is.

Yeah, unfortunately. Check the thread.

@Elle What do you think? Maybe contact stan accounts and ask them to spread it?

Suggestion: Do you think you can make the "streaming party" text larger, or perhaps lower the vibrancy of the Paradise photo so the text stands out more? I feel like everything is warm and golden and people might miss what the banner is for. Looks super cool tho!

Not anymore, I'm afraid.

I was making masks this summer and wanted to decorate some of them. I thought of putting the words "born to die" with fabric paint on one but then I changed my mind, thought it might be a bit on the nose if people don't get the reference.

I definitely think you should make a streaming party thread and we can continue the discusison there, haha.

So I've gotten 20 messages in total, about half of them sent in really close to the deadline. Since I'm not thinking of going through with the project anymore (way few messages than I anticipated + haven't been successful with making contact with Lana's team), I think I'll lock the thread. But before I do that, would you like me to share the messages that were sent in, but not telling who wrote what so you guys all stay anonymous? It's up to you guys if you want to announce which message you wrote. I just wanted to ask because I really think these messages are very loving and wholesome, and some of you expressed a wish to read the book once it was completed. I won't share selfies, and I won't share fan art either (unless you give me your permission to do so).

The new Chemtrails vinyl is really pretty, but I think I’ll pass since I’m not too fond of the album.

@Whore of Tropico Wait, what do you need my opinion on, I'm confused. Time zones? Sounds like a fun idea if we can get people outside of LB to join too.

Has anyone ordered from Universal Germany before? They still haven't charged me for my pre-order, it's still pending in my bank, and when I read the customer service F&Q's, they say I have to make sure I let them know my order number when I make my payment? How am I supposed to do that when I'm waiting for them to charge my credit card, I don't get it? This is my second time trying to order from them (first time earlier this year, a picture disk by Inhaler - I might try to get it again later when I have money to waste again) and I don't want it to end the same way, me waiting for them to charge me and nothing happens, and my order gets cancelled. (But then again, that first time, they told me my order never went through since I never got a confirmation e-mail, but I did get to the "thank you for your purchase!" page.... Luckily, I got both the page and confirmation e-mail this time.)

She’s not dead ?

This makes me sad for some reason

It’s okay, it was a fun idea in my head, haha. :’)

Today is the last day, yes! And I have gotten submissions, but far less than I anticipated. So, I’ve tried to reach out to both Tap Management with an e-mail, and Lana’s managers through social media regarding an address to send the book to. I haven’t gotten a reply. Knowing this, and seeing how few messages I’ve received in total, I don’t think I’ll continue with this project I’m afraid. I’m sorry.
