No, I don't think there is a such thing but I think that would be freaking awesome! The main reason I would go to TWC building would be for the music they played. Imagine getting every playlist! If only they allowed. I don't think TWC will let you in the building unless you have a clear reason to visit. Plus Atlanta is very accessible since Delta has a nonstop flight in my neighborhood airport.
-
You can go there, but you have to have inside connections or something like that. I know several people who ave been inside TWC.
Personally, I'd like to see the STAR department
-
Oh I want to see the Star dept. too! Has any member from here or TWCCLassics been there. What if you knew the music guy? Then would you be allowed to go there?
-
Nope, I don't think anyone from here or there has ever been there. IIRC, the general public is not allowed inside TWC's headquarters. You have to either there for professional purposes, or be in a tour group.
-
I know 1 or 2 people from TWC Classics have been there.
-
Nope, no one's been there. :no:
-
Yes they have. that Jae person was.
-
Nope he wasn't. Not unless he was part of a tour group or something.
-
he was. cause i remember him posting about it. You were banned then, so you probably don't know about it.
-
Nope, never read anything about it. And when I returned I looked through everything I missed and never saw any mention of him going to TWC.
Why am I arguing with you again? :rolleyes:

He did indeed get to tour at TWC. :yes: I'll see if I can find the thread.

PLease do. :)

Here's the thread: http://www.twcclassics.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2898&hl= :)
-
Thanks. Too bad I cant see it. Oh well :)
-
Yeah too bad the picture is gone. <_<
-
IIRC, it wasnt a real picture. I dont think he was allowed to take pictures in there.
-
It was a picture. If you read his post he says that the camera made the place look much larger than it was.
Alright, now its Gil's turn to tell me how right he is. :rolleyes:
-

Jae actually called TWC again for another tour (so he could actually take pictures), but TWC said they no longer offer tours. :no:

Yup it does.
Gil, your on thin ice my friend.

Stephanie Abrams actually gave us a tour of the studio. Here's the video: http://www.weather.com/multimedia/videoplayer.html?clip=5522&collection=videocoll26&from=vid_brws2&tab=3&nav=141 :)
-
Wow thats pretty cool! :)
-
As Stephen said, the pictures were not aloud. Jae just made a layout of the studio in paint or something, just to give us a general idea of where everything is :)
Gary- I think what Jae was referring to, was the tv camera makes the studio look larger on tv. :)
If I were ever offered, I'd take it. The broadcast business is so interesting to me
-
That's too bad TWC doesn't offer tours anymore! I wish I could see pictures of the music and STAR departments! Seems that security is a big thing these days. <_<
-
It is a big thing these days. There are alot of nutty people out there that would harm the OCM's and other folks at TWC if they were allowed inside the building.
-
stupid 9/11!!! >:(
-
I agree with you. If there was no 9/11, the world would've been a better place but I'm not going deep into politics here.
-
Its not 9/11. Or at least not entirely. There were nutty people intent on hurting the OCM's before 9/11 ever occured.
-
Yes, but not nearly as much. Why does everyone (the media, particularly) overhype EVERYTHING that goes wrong? It really
pisses me off.
-
Yes Gil, as much. The people in this country (or any other) haven't changed as a result of 9/11. There were idiots then, and there are idiots now.
-
I'm talking about the beef'd up security, not the mental patients. Yes, there are always crazy people, but TWC still had tours.
-
And they still had beefed up security as well. In fact, the TWC building has always been under high security. The tours weren't stopped as a result of 9/11 or terrorism in general.
-
Can you still request for a private tour? Does TWC even have a phone number to contact?!
-
No, and I don't know about the phone number. Probably not.
-
I looked all over their site for a phone number, but couldnt find one. thats really professionaly :rolleyes:
-
Huh? Whats unprofessional about not putting your phone number on your website for the whole world to see? :rolleyes:
-
They should have a found number somewhere. They have a phone # for the TWC radio network listed in your tv;s station id. It's (770)- someone like that.
-
Because they should have contact info on there. whenever i dont see a phone number, or email on a companies website, i
immediately leave the page. very unprofessional.
-
It's very unprofessional indeed.
-
It's very unprofessional indeed.
We have so much in common :D
-
I disagree. If they had a phone number on the site, then they have every goon in america calling them. An e-mail or other contact is good enough.
Have you tried looking on TWC's media relations site?
-
Do you have a link for the site?
-
http://press.weather.com (http://press.weather.com)
-
Do you have a link for the site?
http://twcmediakit.com/contacts.asp
-
I jsut gave it. :D

TWC employee: The Weather Channel!
Me: HI TWC!!!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG!!!!
TWC Employee: Who is this?
Me: I'm Gil Ra-

-
Do you have a link for the site?
[url]http://twcmediakit.com/contacts.asp[/url]
Thank you!
The link Gary gave me doesn't help that much as I've been to the the press site like a million times!
-
LOL. then why did you ask for the link to it? :rolleyes:
-
Because there is no phone number!
-
My point is if you've already been to the media site and know it doesn't have what your looking for, why did you ask me for the link?
-
I've got a few pics behind the scenes at A&B, they are on my other laptop which simply will not turn on but I will try to get off the HDD tonight..
In the mean time here is a number for TWC 1-800-554-7354.
-
Where did this number come from?
-
My cell phone address book..?
-
What I'm trying to get it is where did you get it from? Obvsiouly it didn't just appear in your address book.
-
Maybe hes called TWC before ;)
-
That doesn't make any difference.
-

The number is on TWC's STAR support website: http://support.weather.com/security/Index.cfm?fuseaction=login&flag=3
-
That's what I needed to know. As long as the number can be found on a site or other widely accessbile place, I will leave it up. But I would have to remove it if it was not on said site or widely accesbile other place.
-
Is there a number for the music dept? ;)

Did you really call them and say that or is that just a joke?
-
Well, since you aren't going to get an answer form him anytime soon...he was joking. :yes:
-
I would imagine him really doing that, though.
-
Yeah it's definitley something he's capable of doing. :D
-
Haha, it would be funny if he did do it however :P
-
As with most of the things Gil says and does, I don't see the comedy of it. All I can see in it is childishness.
-
I'd take my Womynfriend Rose, and ask for a bunch of autographs! That's of course after I faint a couple of times and use the bathroom due to the EXTREME GI distress I get when I'm nervous.
-
I'd try to find the place they keep all their music and playlists from day one (that they SAY doesn't exist).

OBVIOUSLY its a joke ;)

Yes, i suppose it would be.

Sure would be but i dunno the number for TWC.

Nevermind, lol :P
-
Wow, I'm confused... :lol:
-
LOL! I totally mispelled a word.. maybe thats why it didnt make sense.. I replaced typing* with trying*.
-
I still don't understand your post. :wacko:
-
Yeah same here...:wacko:
-
I want to see the playlists and music section as well, as stated by Matt.
-
From what I've been hinting with out directly saying.. There is no playlist / music section.. Its all done in Master Control..
-
If I visited The Weather Channel headquarters in Atlanta, I would meet Stephanie Abrams and Mike Bettes and talk to them about their show Abrams and Bettes
And I would ask TWC for the old icons back and to put back the 2 minute flavors at the :18 and :48

I Want To See The WeatherStar Department

I would have fun with the skytracker radar.
Visit their satellite local forecast area.
Tell them to scrap these terrible playlists that have been happening.
