I think I'm going to go to VAMPS, go home and shower/change, and then I'll probably be back outside the venue by around 3-4AM. However, I have a backup plan (boyfriend's house), since I'm a little wary of camping out in NYC. I'll probably only go if there are other people there already. The good thing about NYC, though, is if it starts getting a little sketchy, I can just hang out in a diner or something until 5 or 6AM.
That area is generally pretty safe, but I've never been there late at night before...
I'm sure dressing up won't be a problem. You could just get someone to hold your spot and go change in a public bathroom in Rockefeller somewhere.
If you get too scared to camp out alone, I could PM you my cell phone number or something, but I don't know when I'm getting there. You'd probably be better off making friends with some of the people in line. Stay safe! I'll see you there, I'm sure!
And only one more week! I can't wait!!
