My sentiments exactly!

I'd also like to hear from people who went to Elements, what was it like?

Geeze $50.00 to join the new fan club so you can have the privilege of spending $300.00 more dollars. It sounds like a lot of money to me.

I didn't go to Elements. It wasn't live but a listening party and I didn't think it would be worth it. I did pay $250.00 for tickets to the Borgata concerts though. I'd rather hear the music.

Carli,
I did go to the first Elements event. It did seem a little expensive but heck I only live 7 miles up the road from Elements so I felt like I couldn't pass it up. I thought it was totally worth it. The q&a part was interesting because Jon was forced to answer questions from the fans and for the most part they were good ones. I'm not sure if you'll get the opportunity for a picture or autograph but you never know. If you are calm and ask him he won't turn you down. We did have the group picture thing but I was lucky and got a separate picture with him. So, yes, I would do it again.

Oh, Deb, lucky girl, you got enough!!
Iīm absolute dissappointed that the tickets for Hall Of Fame event are not included. So, Deb, can you please tell me, how they choose the questions at elements? I canīt imagine how that works. Ute

Carli,
If that's how you feel then, as I see it you only have one option. You only regret the things you don't do...In time you'll forget the money but you'll have the memories forever...Oh and it'll mean I don't have to buy you a beer!

Unhappy

I would love to know why these fan club trips are always such an absurd price.
What is the money actually paying for?!

Well, unlike Elements, a lot of the cost here will be to cover shutting down (not sure how big the HR London is so they may not close it down but have a room) and renting the Hard Rock. I'm sure that's not going to come cheap.

As far as how the questions that Jon answered were chosen, it was totally random, hands went up and if the microphone came your way then you asked your question and he answered. It was very relaxed and like having a conversation with him.

For $300, I'd go if I lived anywhere near the place where it's happening. Depending on how many people make it, you never know what will happen. When I went on a FC trip, I got to meet Jon and have an individual picture made with him. The other band members will be in town too, so there's more of a shot at them showing up.

very sad, first you pay a lot just to be member.

And then 300 for a meet of greet? What kind meet & greet, one that is almost certain one where 500 fans are in a room & Jon being on a stage, 15 meters away...
