Angry at Bruce
 
Got this from his messageboard and thought I would share:

Just thought I'd give a big thanks to The Boss for totally taking advantage of his fans and their hard earned money! Thank you for making people buy tickets at Giants stadium for what they thought was the last show 3 times! It's one thing to add shows but this is a blatant marketing ploy to put more cash in his wallet. If he wanted to add more shows he could have put them in between 7/15-7/17, 7/18-7/21, 7/24-7/27! The money making thing to do is let everyone buy up what they think is the last show and then do it all over again. Now the last show to go on sale is 8/30!(which probably will not be the last). There are still tix available for the other shows! For someone who has made his living by pretending to be "one of the people" and a "blue collar guy" this sure stinks of a "White collar" scam!! Rock on Bruce!!!!

but you know with bruce each show will be as good as it can get... he gives it his all... regardless of price for Bruce i'd make the exception and go to all 7 if I was an NJ resident...

(Just to prove I should really start sleeping more it is 4:20 am UK time and I have to get up at 8 am!)

Yes, that feeling is out there. Personally I am glad-if he hadn't added more I would not have gotten mine because I was waiting for Philly, but with so many shows in Jersey I had to grab them. Bruce may not be back again for years- let him make a good final stand for this tour!

off topic I know


but why do things like the backstage shop say New Jersey residents have to ask 7% tax?

That is the law I guess. 7% sales tax. :? I thought it was 6%. What the heck do I know. :roll:

Mongoose 03-07-2003 02:06 AM

yeah

but why just in Jersey?

Mousebounce 03-07-2003 02:06 AM

It is 6%. Don't confuse me. :)

Mousebounce 03-07-2003 02:07 AM

It is being shipped from Jersey to Jersey.

Mongoose 03-07-2003 02:10 AM

?


Im not sure you get my point, the way it is set out gives the impression that you dont have to pay that 6% for anywhere else in the world, just Jersey

why?

Mousebounce 03-07-2003 02:13 AM

Because sales tax varies from state to state. Example 8% in NY. It could be more in Ohio or less.
