Is there any recent news on the situation with him, or, more specifically, is he still working for FM?

Well, he was the executive producer of Mick's solo album.

I didn't waste my money on it, but I wonder if Todd's wife made any vocal appearances.

Yes, Mick was told. Mick was told everything Jonathan Todd had done and he did absolutely nothing to change anything. When it was clear he was not going to take any action about what he had been told, Tony called a meeting with the Lindsey, Stevie, John and Mick. As soon as they learned what had happened they insisted Jonathan Todd be fired. Unfortunately, that proved tougher than anything anyone could have imagined. He had an iron clad contract that was almost impossible to break for cause. Eventually they succeeded in firing him.

Those things disappeared from Mick's site almost as fast as the fan club complaints on Mick's chat.

They were as sloppy at removing things as they were at running the fanclub. There was enough left on the site to compile a 72 page report that was presented to the 4 band member and their management. The report documented enough complaints and posts about what happened with the club and those first presales to convince management that the fans were fleeced and mislead by the fanclub, and lied to over and over again by Jonathan Todd and those 2 low life administrators.

Why, surely you aren't referring to Trinity and golddustwoman (Jackie)!

Her fascination with Mick's testicles was enough to drive me away eventually, it just so happened that I got banned before I could run. And Trinity? Oy.

Thank you for the info.

Just skimmed back through that thread, what bad freaking memories. The only good times on that board were Sarah's funny pictures.....they ticked Jonathan off no end and they kept us in stitches. Janet Lee, Judy Garland and the LOL guy

I don't know what his current situation is - maybe some of the enlightened Ledgies can help us out

Mick kept Jonathan and the 2 low life administrators on running his own site. He never opened up the membership to the people who were thrown out.....not that we'd want to go back, but that was the very least he could have done to acknowledge how badly the FM fans were treated.

If anyone saw the Grammy Awards last week, during U2's acceptance speech.... Larry? took time to apologize to the fans who were screwed during their most recent presale. The band is giving membership refunds (no questions asked) and the band is seriously working on something else to make it up to the fans who were screwed. Sounds just like the way the band members of FM and their management handled things with their fanclub

THE LOL GUY WAS MY FAVORITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish Sara would pop in and just post it for old time's sake.

She had me on the floor when she typed "Bad Apple" in under her avatar.

That really is a shame.

Oh...*Sara*......please post a few pictures........pretty please

I forgot about her Bad Apple, that was hysterical! Didn't Sara or someone else do some creative artwork with Jonathan's picture and post it on his board? I remember he had a fit.....it was worth every moment.

Oh, I just remembered the HAPPY LETTERS

Well I went over to Mick's board since you guys were talking about it and I was curious as to what was happening at the old rat trap these days...

And I found this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...87987&tc=photo

I won't even comment...I'll just let it speak for itself...and I think it does...

Can you do the URL again? You have a space in the word "item". I can't copy and paste since the whole URL is not typed out.

Sugar · #**178** 02-20-2005, 09:57 PM

Yeah...just fixed it...

I'd rather breastfeed Gary Coleman.
