Tips, tricks, and cautionary advice all welcome.
Your best bet is definitely blackface. The whole idea is getting the right color shoe polish. It's just about doing it tastefully, okay?

I was wondering who would be the first to suggest this.  Even having only been around for a couple days, I had my money on you, Julian. 

What color(s) of shoe polish do you think would be "right?"  And should I accessorize?

It really depends on your skin tone going on. When you wear concealer, on the standard 9 point scale, which do you buy?

Everyone,

As the clock ticks down, I just wanted to say thanks for your help in trying to get this autograph for me.  Whether you personally messaged the band or came back to the thread every day, I appreciate it. 

I knew it was a long shot, but hey, we tried.  And I know I had fun.  The witty banter was entertaining, if nothing else. 

Just because London Grammar goes on in a few hours and then leaves DC forever doesn't mean this thread has to die.  It's original purpose may expire, but surely it has other uses. 

So I've said my piece, which means all that's left to do is tastefully don my disguise and try to catch the band after the show.  Julian, how do I look?

Why, yes . . . You are, officially one of us.  Welcome, brother (no pun intended).

That's some good, old-fashioned family friendly racism.

It may be racially insensitive, but I disagree that it's racism. 

In any case, the distinction is irrelevant, because my takeaway from the past 3 days is that the only rule is there are no rules.

Just woke up.  Uhh.  But, this was the first thing I thought of.  And the club twitter person last night was . . . Post happy.

It's a given that the bigger the hype the more they tweet a show
