Aloha !

Since the UK Tour has the goldcircle again which has access for everyone, even without a wristband, and other date(s) will have a goldcircle as well in Europe, do you feel screwed? After all, they know you're all in a hurry to send in your memberships and they just quickly cash in, since (as far as I understand) there'll be no real pit in a lot of shows in Europe.

So after all, you're paying 40 dollars for er, nothing. I'm sure that if you'd give me 40 dollards, I'd be giving you more than backstage does, don't you think? My banknumber is : 43321153. 30 dollars is also allowed.

So, do you feel screwed?

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

No one forces you to pay the 40 Dollars.

By the way, yesterday I talked to the German tourpromoter and he said that here in Germany there for sure won't be front-of-stage-tickets since he absolutely doesn't like this beside that BJ are no Robbie Williams. They are not as huge and he probably wouldn't sell them.

The net prices for the tickets here in Germany would raise at an avarage of 1,50 EUR.

Well duh. But they promise better tickets, or something like that, right? And with fans not knowing what will happen each tour considering the wristbands, this causing the mess in the UK back in 2003, I'd feel screwed.

Just curious, why would the German tourpromotor tell you anything?

Why not? I met him yesterday and he is a nice guy. He knows that we are his customers and treats us like that. We talked for quite a while. You know that BJ were here yesterday for a TV show and Ossy Hoppe is always with them as such occasions.

Yeah I will feel totally screwed if they offer nothing for the concerts. I payed my $40 for the wristband and thats it...cos well they offer nothing else thats of any use to me since I don't live in America.

But if they have a backstage fan pit in wembely like they did in Hyde park & if they let backstage members in first into the pit in Dublin then I won't feel so screwed

Iv only just recieved my membership card and the only reason I paid for it was for the EARLY ENTRY into venues. This will happen. They have golden circle tickets, sure, but fanclub members still have a seperate line to gain entry and will be allowed in earlier than the other golden circle ticket holders. So, No, I dont feel screwed.

Er, what's the use in that? So that you're 4th row instead of 10th? :s

Well chances are you will be in anything from the first row to forth row. You will still have those silly little numbers on your hands, but my point is you will be infront of all the other golden circle ticket holders which is why you are paying for the membership in the first place, so I think thats a good thing. You are paying for that privilege.

And no matter where you are seated/standing in the venue.....the band still sounds the same.....and that folks is what its all about is it not?
