My experience at the Honeymoon signing at Rough Trade East, 18th September 2015
Arrived at the venue about 10:30am and there was already a queue to meet her. Went in the store, upgraded my CD purchase to a vinyl and received my wristband. Joined the back of the queue, about 40 people behind the front approximately. The signing was due to start 12pm. About 11:30am, everybody without a wristband was made to leave the queue and we were told to have our records/CDs in our hands ready.
Roughly 12:30pm, the manager of the store came out to start letting people in. They let about 10 people in every 15 minutes or so and I didn't enter the store until 1pm but I could see Lana through the glass front window of the store. Once I was allowed in the store, we were queued around the edge of the shop floor and we could see Lana talking to fans and signing their records close to the queue. She was so sweet, spent about 5 minutes with each person and did selfies on their phones, kissed their cheeks and even gave a little girl a free vinyl from the store shelf as she had nothing to sign!
I waited in the long queue of fans until my turn. When I got to the front of the queue, the management told us there was a one signature, one photo policy. Although, it was obvious that Lana was just enjoying time with each fan and took multiple photos/signed other items you bought with you! She had a pile of gifts next to her too.
It was not until 2pm that I got to meet Lana. I walked up to her and she said "Hey! You look very smart and cute." I complimented her outfit back and she said "you think?". We were both wearing black, so I said "we match!" and she replied with "Two little goths, haha." She thanked me for coming to the album release and I welcomed her by saying I loved the artwork this era. Lana seemed surprised and said "Really? That's so good. A lot of people said they didn't." I assured it that it had grown on me a lot. She explained that the artwork was "graphical" and "suits the record" and I began to explain my love for Neil's photography work. We spoke about her and Neil going to do the shoot and them eventually picking her sister's shot for the cover. Lana asked how old I was and what I do. I told her I am 21 and just graduated with a photography degree. She squealed a little and said you're really doing it then. I told her that my friend had worked with Neil before and I have mutual friends with him, so she asked for my name and I told her it was Brett. Lana was like "Brent? Or Brett? Haha" She then asked for my full name and wrote it down on a piece of paper and put it with the pile of gifts. I told her how sweet she was and if we could take some photos. She took my phone and took selfies. Whilst taking the photos, Lana giggled and said "Just two goths" and kissed my cheek! Then I kissed her cheek. I asked her about Life is Beautiful and what happened to the track. She said she wasn't sure. She signed my record and said thank you! Hugged me and I said thank you so much, bye!"
It was such a blessing to meet her, she is so beautiful. She was sweet to all of her fans and I don't think anyone could complain about the time she spent with each person!

This is so nice you are so lucky
I love how she actually has conversations with fans too, she doesn't just sign and take a picture 
I hope she does a singing near me eventually

Serious question. What are the chances Honeymoon finally gives Lana that Grammy she deserves? I mean, the pop categories will be Taylor's.
Any alternative categories?

Well, let me try to follow Interscope's logic. They have sent out West Coast to alternative radio where it did rather good, but submitted her only in pop categories for the Grammys.
West Coast and the album. Both of them. See any logic here? No? Well, I don't see it either. They didn't submitt anything in alternative categories. Like, how will a pop jury seriously consider anything from UV?
I don't think she will get any noms and don't think she is crazy about it either.
