I haven't heard anywhere that there WON'T be any fanclub wristbands....the only thing I've heard is that there will be a limited amount (which they say every tour) I think that with this gold ticket thing everyone is a little bit confused as to the fanclub wristbands...and if they don't do any FC wristbands then I think it is totally wrong and they will get alot of people not joining for next year as what would be the point when you can get good tickets without paying the extra money. Me, for one, and I'm not ashamed to say it, only joined for the wristbands anyway!!
Let's face it....everything at the moment is just speculation..nothing has been confirmed. Let's wait and see what they say on Backstage.
