How soon is too soon to send via venue?

Unread post by jjman114 »

Hi everyone, I'm going to send to Demi Lovato and the Jonas Brothers their concert is on August 23rd in Columbus, OH and I was wondering how soon should I postmark it, I don't wanna send it too early and have it get returned but at the same time I want to be sure it makes it there in time, please help if you can, thank you so much!

Im guessing you live in the US so I would say send it on the 17th/18th. Therefore, it would get there in time for the concert. :)

Thanks for your help guys, lol yeah no later than the day before sounds like good advice to me, lol. Yes I do live in the US, since I live in Minnesota and Demi's venue spot is in Ohio I would think it would only take maybe 2 days to get there. I am thinking I will postmark it on Saturday the 16th then, that way it will arrive during the same week the concert is taking place with a few days to spare, have any of you ever gotten a RTS for sending too early? j/w This will be my first via venue so that's why all of the questions surrounding it, vv seems to be the only way Demi is signing right now and understandable as she's out on tour. She's probably got a backload of fanmail waiting for her in L.A. when she gets back, I imagine that will take some time for her to get through. Thanks guys!

for my first jonas brothers request, i sent it around two weeks early. and the state i sent it too was across the country, but it probably only took a couple days to get there.
i am pretty sure the venue keeps it there until the show because i got an autograph back from the boys a couple weeks after the show!

Hey thanks courtney, I appreciate all the feedback :) I postmarked my letter to Demi on Saturday morning, so one week before her show in Columbus, OH so now fingers crossed and I'm hoping the next few weeks will bring a pleasant surprise from the star of Camp Rock :) OOh cool I thought about writing the Jo Bros but am holding off for now I guess. Thanks everyone for your input, via venue can be tricky for new people like me who want to get it right :) I did put a "Hold for Demi Lovato" on the front of my envelope so hope it works :)
