Did anybody else get the email from bandstocks about attending a listening session for The Bachelor?

I just read it - I won't be able to make it anyway but I'm sure many others will.

Was this just sent to some bandstock holders like the last event? I'm just paranoid that I'm not getting bandstock emails after not recieveing the one about koko nor the one Kayleigh mentioned in the bandstocks discussion thread.

I'm pretty sure it's sent to all, it doesn't say it's exclusive or anything. But it says 'Hello Jade' so it's obviously personalised to some extent, as it's not just 'Hello bandstocks holder' or something. I don't think that means much though. And that's totally no help whatsoever, maybe email them and ask why you aren't receiving the messages.

Ah sod it. Here I was hoping reviewers would have even remotely special privileges! BUT NO! Heh.

Not sure if I'll go or not. I kind of want to wait for the album to come out to hear it, it's not like he's performing or anything is it?

When I listen to an album for the first time I like to listen to it on my own so I can concentrate and stuff really, and take it all in. Maybe that's just me though, but I'd sort of like to wait and be really excited so all of it is new to me when I finally get it all to myself.

I'm exactly the same, I think I'll give it a miss

Due to the fact that I'm not a native english speaker and I rushed through the message, I thought it was another performance :/ I still would have loved to go but can't afford last minute train tickets. I'm gonna take comfort in the fact that I'd probably prefer to listen to the album on my own and in better conditions too to really appreciate it. June seems so far away though...

Didn't you go to the last one as well? I thought they were trying to work through different shareholders each time there was a event or can people get invited to events twice?

Well this isn't really an event. I'm pretty sure this email has been sent to all stockholders, it's just a set of listening sessions for the new album

Well I was emailed about the advance ticket thing for koko, and maybe I got that because I was a new(ish) bandstock holder? But because I'm not going to it (you had to send a message through bandstocks to say you were going), maybe this is why I have been 'invited' to this thing, too? This probably defies all reason as to why you lot haven't had anything.

i didn't get a koko message either... but i wasn't too bothered about it because i wouldn't have gone to it anyway. and like you said, i'd much rather listen to the album in its entirety on my own when i have the booklet and everything to pore over.. though i am desperate to hear the album as soon as possible. someone (thanks liam) has just emailed me saying that i can take their invite, which is sweet but i don't think the invites are transferrable. i'll just have to miss out on this one

But did you go to that secret show thing? Maybe that's why, they email people who haven't been to anything yet? etc. But I would much rather go to a secret show (jealous than a mass CD listen, although I do appreciate it. It's not very clear, but it sounds like maybe that's how they're doing it. I hope there's more that I get invited to, or maybe I've missed all my chances now!

I haven't been to any bandstock events and wasn't emailed about this or koko (though I sent a message through bandstocks and they replied with the link so I could buy tickets).
