i think he's going to have a tough time getting people to pay money after that nicksfix announcement, though!

Get your money back. Now.

[Ghost_Tracker]

BOY he SURE has!


(But look at what he said and compare it to what John ACTUALLY said.
i.m.o. this is very clear.)

I agree, and in my opinion if people carefully read the "response" and compare it even halfway-carefully to what John actually said, they'll see why.
And I love your phraseology; it's just absolutely 100% dead-on.

So does all this mean that the plan (on the part of the organizers) was to sell tickets first & then to pitch the idea to the Nicks organization?

Oops. I was lost in my "Stand Back" raptus from the old Wild Heart Tour:

When I play my old "Stand Back," I enter what I call a raptus--a sort of hyperenergized trance. I lose touch with reality & am unable to follow the line of conversation on the Ledge. :shocked: :]

Well, that's too bad about this whole affair. But maybe it will all turn out right in the end. :thumbsup:

Can I take this opportunity to say thanks to Marty for the truly lovely design of The Ledge?

I never read Seven Wonders, mainly because I waste enough of my time on here, and one Fleetwood Mac message board is more than enough for me, but also because the layout and the colors over there hurt my eyes like a mother. Yikes.

So thanks for The Ledge, Marty. Top-notch work, it's really a beautifully put together website.

Amen to that. Like BTFLCHLd, the layout puts me right off.

Plus the Ledge just rocks more in general.

There are other non-Mac related boards I visit which are designed like Seven Wonders that I don't visit that much either because of that layout. The Ledge is much more user friendly.

[cliffdweller]

The SevenWonders layout sucks. I don't know what I'm reading half the time with all those banners and graphics and bull**** floating around. Someone needs to clean it up, it's quite attrocious.

[strandinthewind]

I just use the "show unread posts since your last visit" link and avoid the forums.

Also, the Ledge does indeed rock and roll!!!!!

if i can figure it out.. anyone can.

[diamondsnake]

This whole private concert thing is a fiasco! If you actually sent in money than I don't know what you were thinking. Did anyone actually think this would work out? This is just not something I could see Stevie being involved in.

Oh, so that's where you've been hanging your hat these days :cool:.

Okay, "fiasco"? :rolleyes:

Why are everyone's panties in a bunch so soon? I mean, this just happened, we don't even know what is really going on yet - why doesn't everyone just calm down and wait to see what happens? Everyone is acting like it should all be resolved in one second, that the end of the world is nigh, and that Brian has absconded with everyone's money. Mellow out.

Yeah, but they have awesome emoticon thingies. I wish we had those here.

I gotta admit, if it had been a scam, that would have been hilarious. I would have been jealous that I didn't think of it first. That would be an awesome claim to infamy - "I told a bunch of Stevie Nicks fans to give me a couple hundred bucks and I would throw them a private party with Stevie herself, then I fled the country!" You'd go down in the rock & roll history books for something like that.

As it is, I'm kind of disappointed it's all been resolved so soon. Things have been so interesting around here...

Good one, most respectful and articulate poster.

But the thing is, for the most part people trust Brian, and it's easy to get your money back from credit cards anyway. If that weren't the case, I don't think enough people would have bought it for him to flee the country - maybe Canada....:p
I did think of that, though.
I'm disappointed, too. But not about missing the endless wanky discussions about why Stevie is lame, and what she will or won't do, and how can we expect blah blah from her, and what she should really do when she tours, and how much better various other artists are for various reasons.

[amber]

I think the problem is that they are ugly. But, to each his own. I'm glad you like them. I like a couple of them. Mainly the Stevie tambo slap, and the ball snorting coke. I don't think I'd use them much, I just like them.

[BTFLCHLD]

as i mentioned to david earlier...
i was up to 2 am building pyramids
amazing how the mind works
devising all sorts of ways
to glean $$$$ from peeps frontside
play stocks for a fews
provide refunds on the backside
at a hella profit :]

That's not what I'm talking about either, I'm talking about all of the great behavioral observations I've been making this week. All the different reactions to all this party stuff have been really fascinating.

[MacMan]

Isn't someone somewhere going to lose abit of money on this whole transaction. I mean Paypal is involved... don't they take a percentage of money coming to you.. or is it free? And if they do and the refunds are by Paypal, doesn't the receiver pay again to receive their money back?

I doubt Marty would venture into the Stevie forum for any reason whatsoever, so I'll say thank you for him. :D Thanks for the kind words.

He doesn't really go into any forums, not just Stevie's LOL. It's not like he's the Mac fan in the house. He mainly sticks w/ the administrative stuff.

He did kindly help me add pictures to John's Q&A. ;)

Good point... yes... paypal will sting the receiver to receive the money.

[rianbay1]

Just so everyone here knows, I have already received my refund in the amount of the FULL $350 as promised.

Too bad so much negativity had to ruin something that could have been great.

Glad to hear you got your refund. But let's not blame the negativity for this not happening. There was a lot more to it than that!
