Erm, care to share with the rest of us how you got this kind of "inside info" and where you got it from?

According to Ticketmaster, they haven't been approached about fan club arrangements yet...but then again we all know that the European fan club benefits are usually arranged just a few weeks prior to the tour anyway. And according to Backstage, there WILL be fan club wristbands distributed at the European shows, so I take that to include the UK shows as well. Especially since the wristband issue is mentioned in connection with the Gold Standing/Circle tickets.

What IS still unclear, though, is whether or not BSWJBJ members will have the exact same benefits they had in 2001 when they were allowed to enter the venues some 15 minutes before the general public. My guess is that the reason Backstage encouraged fan club members to buy Gold tickets (where available) was precisely that they're trying to protect us and make it easier for themselves and BJM to justify and explain the promoters that fan club members ALL belong in the pit and that they should also be allowed to enter the venues before the general public (which in this case includes also non-fan club member Gold ticket holders).

So even though Backstage hasn't told us yet exactly what kind of benefits we will be getting, please don't go around claiming that there won't be any fan club benefits at the UK shows next year.
