The worse thing is they offered GC tickets only for $197 to get early entry .So that means the tickets we got on Wednesday wont be the same .Also that means theres no point in being in the fan club if we've got to pay extra to get in early .

Its disgraceful really. That VIP tour is a joke, it doesnt even include getting on stage and who the hell wants a big meal before you go to concert?!!!

I ended up buying Amsterdam tickets as they were alot cheaper than the uk shows (about £55 each) for GC. Backstagers are rightly up in arms about this as alot of people bought 5-6 GC tickets on presale and cant use their membership.

You know most fanclubs try to protect fans from being ripped off, it seems like ours acts worse than the touts

Daylight robbery is spot on!

Again people have bought tickets and are not sure where they will standing at the concert. I got GC so i guess i'll prob just stroll into twickenham at whatever time i want and avoid all the fuss and bother of queing. At least i know i should be somewhere near to the front!

LMFAO! Pathetic.

What on earth do they need that money for. How many of those tickets are there per gig? 20? That's 25k, wich is nothing for a band as BJ.
To screw over your fans for that (relativitaly) small amount is just sad.

Someone has made BWJBJ his personal cashaccount.

Now I'm definitaly going to by my tickets with a tout

I think I have been sent to the naughty step as I am unable to log into the backstage boards after starting an open letter to Matt, Admin and the Fc. I have not message saying I am banned but just not able to log in.
