Well, all I'm gonna say about this for now is that until Backstage proves me otherwise, I absolutely refuse to believe that there wouldn't be any fan club arrangements for the UK shows, particularly for members who bought Gold Tickets like the fan club told them to. The fan club knows they would probably lose most of their UK members if they left them without any benefits, especially now when the mainland European shows have had such excellent arrangements, so they're undoubtedly more than willing to pull whichever strings they need to to get the arrangements sorted for each and every UK gig. The fan club is a business, after all, so they should be committed to "customer satisfaction", so to speak.

I hope your right, however if it is a business, it won't be willing to run at a substantial loss.

Just wanted to say that we had NO FC arrangements at the Rumba shows, and I got Front Row at both I went to without the FC's help, so worse comes to worse and there is no FC arrangments for the UK shows it can be done. Just takes a sleepless night! Hope things work out for you though.

Front row is still possible - but will take alot of commitment.

I'll join in the speculating Jovian - letting FC mmbers in first would perhaps be the fairest solution & wouldn't leave non FC members complaining. However the downside is that once your in your position - that's it!! Getting the the toilet or a drink etc.. will be pretty much out of the question.

I am hoping there r fc arrangements though, as I am a member.

Jovian/Anu i admire your spunk and you are right! they can't dismiss the UK Fanclub members just because of this gold ticket thing! there will be arangements, they just haven't been confirmed yet!

Mike - As for the pit, the band own the pit! - they take it from show to show and set it up at each show!

Unfortunately - they don't own the venue.

They do not 'own' the venue for the day - they have to hire it thru promoters. There are alot of 3rd parties involved in a BJ concert. Its not even BJ who decide where they tour - not even the promoter (although I guess they have the final say). And to add an extra pit at the front - of which the promoters don't directly benefit (they pay the same price to them as everyone else - backstage get the money), backstage need to pay extra to hire it & to be able to use that area to put their pit in.

I'm not sure what the problem is, just passing on the 1 week ago there where no FC arrangements although they were trying to sort something out. And I was highlighting the problems they were having.
