Sorry - I could not resist that being a closet shipper

They could drink out of the available water fountain and they could buy an ice chest for $10 and buy sandwhich meat and vegatables at the Publix, with the total cost for eating thereby being reduced to $25 per week for both!

Do you think La Nicks would dare? I sure as hell don't.

I'd bet money that she has Wolfgang prepare her every meal and FedEx them with dry ice.

Actually, there is a W. Puch (sp.?) a few blocks for the Four Seasons here in ATL where they usually stay and hub out of. So, you may not be too far off there!!!!!!

Also, I am sure LB and the boys have their costly little vices.

Yeah, we all know how expensive Wheat Thins and joints are.

I adore Wolfgang. He is the funniest little man in the world. I met him once and he was so adorable. My mother is a Wolfgang junkie. She'll call me up at 2am and tell me the latest model of the Wolfgang frying pan is on Home Shopping Network.

There are two offerings for fan club members for this show...

Bronze Presale Tickets - this is presale only and ends on Friday, February 12th at 10amPT/12pmCT/1pmET.
* Price - face value of a price level one ticket plus a $10 service charge.
* Location - Rows 1 - 30
* Limit four Bronze Presale Tickets per person

Platinum Package - these packages are available until soldout.
* Only 50 per show
* Price - $500
Includes:
* One price level one ticket, location rows 1 - 5
* Exclusive Platinum Ticket Package t-shirt
* Exclusive Platinum Ticket Package VIP laminate
* Autographed Tour book
* $25 coupon good in the official Fleetwood Mac fan club online store
* VIP Backstage tour - NO meet and greet
* Limit two Platinum Packages per person
Didn't Stevie once say:"This has nothing to do with art, it's all about finances"??? Well, there you have it.... it's an outrage. Backstage tour.... all you'll see are the flightcases and the members of the crew. That's pretty interesting to watch.... NOT.

At this point, covering the mortgage in a night's work would be just fine.
You mean paying off the house with one night's work or just the monthly payment? I'd prefer the former.

They make the best spinach salad with apples and sugar coated walnuts. The oil dressing they use tastes like butter. Sigh...

Ick, not a spincah fan. LOL

Wolfgang's pizza is something I would die for. The crust melts in your mouth and the cheese is so sharp...mmmmmm. He puts the tiniest little bit of sauce on it and the ham is candied...good lord.

He made a variation of the pizza on Good Morning America last week and I was salivating in front of my television.

The latter is more likely. Almost anyone would count that as good pay - consider that I live in Los Angeles in the hills. It ain't cheap.

Of course the former would be preferred. But I can only think of one character that could have swung that...I was very young, it was a youthful indiscretion...I am sounding like a politician now !

From what I understand, you don't even get to know what you bought until you get the tickets in the mail. I read through the Tickets FAQ. That's a big bummer to me.....

If I didn't know any better, I'd say this was classic JT doublespeak. Sounds like the presale ain't going so good.

"We want to reassure you regarding the ticket packages which are being offered to fans and to give a detailed explanation of these packages since we understand some of you have concerns.

The Platinum package is a very limited offering, only 50 per show, of a complete concert experience. The experience includes a exclusive shirt only for the Platinum experience, a autographed tour program and a backstage tour prior to the show that includes a keepsake photo of the backstage tour. We have held 950 prime seats (some starting with row one) per show to ensure that everyone in the fan club can purchase good tickets under the bronze presale. Although we don't set the price of a ticket, the $10 service charge is less than Ticketmaster.

The Platinum package isn't meant for everyone. It is a way for the band to offer an entire evening experience to a few of the fans who desire it.

Because this is not going through TicketMaster, as the last tour presale did, you can be assured that when we lists rows, we will deliver those tickets. We have taken complete control to assure we get what we want for the fans.

Exact seat and row locations are not given in advance for a number of reason, the primary being... it would be very easy for brokers to then join the fan club to buy up the tickets and sell or auction them. Taking away the chance for the fans to get the seats. Without knowing the location they will not be able to do this.

We are confident that once the tour begins and you receive your tickets you will be very happy!"

what I think the fan club are failing to appreciate is the negativity caused by Toad. He did so much damage that they need to gain trust and they are totally going the wrong way about it.
