Darn it. I am just afraid that if the Harley is custom tailored, it won't fit me, because I'm just a wee bit shorter than Mick. My legs won't reach the pedals!

I wonder if Mick ever rode that thing.

this Mick Fleetwood private jet thing is just embarrassing.
What an excuse to try and make money.


One of my icons has gone down in my estimation considerably with this 'offer'.

What do fans thinks of this private jet experience?

It leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

How much money does one person need?

It is taking capitalism to a need level.

I wonder what other stars will start doing this at some point.

Ideally it would be more exciting if a true FM fan won this in a contest but in reality, if you can afford such an amazing opportunity, I say GO FOR IT!!! How cool would it be to fly in Mick's private jet? Sure I'd rather it be Stevie's. But I'd take Mick's if that was my only choice.

i hate flying. especially in smaller planes. i would probably pay money NOT to have to do something like this.

but yeah other celebrities have been doing this apparently too. just look through that website offering Micks.

Some bands let you go on vacation with them There's a Backstreet Boys cruise. And Hanson will take you to Jamaica.

In comparison, this doesn't seem as bad. However the amount of money is a little ridiculous - but then again, not surprising.

It's the same date of the concert. I believe they will e-mail us when it gets closer to the date telling you what time to come.

Yes, I am against those private jets. They are always the ones that crash.

I am also a little upset that for that price, $30,000 for Boston/Toronto and $40,000 for the other two, you aren't guaranteed tickets in the first row. Just first 5.

Maybe Mick feels that after spending all that up close and personal time with him you'd rather be as far away as possible when his sweat is flying through the air.

For those of you who have already purchased the VIP tickets from Mick's site, how are the tickets shipped? Or do you receive an email with a link to the tickets?

thanks!

Maybe he might get more offers if he throws in some flying companionship.
