FC show - Who's going?

Given I live in Oz, there's no way. That aside, at $382 Australian, not in one trillion lifetimes would I part with that amount, even if it were the whole band. This ought to be a FREE gig and for FC members ONLY. I won't pay that amount to see the band on tour and NEVER for an FC event.
Rip off with JBJ are an absolute JOKE!!!

To be fair ... why should it be a free event? Yes, Jon has enough money to burn that he could pay all the expenses out of his own pocket, but that doesn't mean he's obligated to. Just like no fan club members are obligated to pay all that money

That said, I do think it's a lot of money, and I wouldn't pay that much money to go to such an event, but that doesn't make it a crime to charge it

Huh? What disaster? The time they played without Richie in 2007?

No - I think he was referring to Tico singing this at the "one off" boxset show at the Borgata. Tico wasn't too bad (though he didn't sound great) but Jon screwed up the drums.

Is this the Puerto Rico show? I have heard so much about it, yet I know nothing about it. Anyone have any information? Just want to know for the sake of it, please.

...

That is so dumb I can't even be bothered making a joke for it

Well loads of people in a thread a while back were talking about how Richie didn't play at the show, Bobbie did a great solo, it was a good setlist etc.

I heard quite a bit about it.

However, I don't really know anything about it to have my own opinion.

Richie was in rehab, Bobby played lead guitar, what else is there to know?!

Pretty sure there are clips on Youtube but I cbf looking for them atm. Prayer was done with no talkbox.

No...you are right...it is not a crime to charge it...cause they can doesn't mean they should.
...why shouldn't it be??

I actually have the Puerto Rico show on DVD.

Only watched it once I'd say the highlight of the show is when Jon sings Richie's line in Wanted Never seen that before.

I think IML was also done without the TalkBox.
