Default Rock on Sara. Rock on.

Thanks for the memories. Most days your pics were the only thing that made ANY sense in our misery and pain. And to THINK they dared to take your stars away.

You're the best.

Sadly, I think this one applies to all of us. I don't think I will ever fully recover from being slapped down and losing my stars.

I also find it interesting that Mr. Todd decided to describe the glorious scene of MICK's amazing drumming opening the show...geez, I wonder if the rest of the band has even met the guy. I sure hope not.
Peace,
Matt

Thank you Sara


Was there a picture of Judy Garland too? If there was can you post that one too!


Yeah, maybe the picture of the inside of the toilet on the private plane will make you forget the horror, humiliation and honor of being de-starred by Jonathan Todd.

I thought this was hilarious!!
For example, we just
received a shot of the interior of the private jet that the band used to
fly to the Today Show.

LMFAO!! Oh dear god... I am distraught that I haven't joined!

Hey I bet people are beside themselves with excitement over on Mick's board thanking Knight for the wonders coming their way....

Oh man - this is too much! I'm sitting here LMAO! But I feel so sorry for the poor Schmo-Club Members!
"The proceeds will go to Save Africa" (paraphrased obviously). PLEASE don't tell me that means the FanClub Members have to pay each time they enter the comp for the 400 pieces of junk that Todd has comissioned from his Cairo sweat-shop.
I can't believe he is doing this in Fleetwood Mac's name. Mick's name, fine - because Mick is fully responsible for what this creep does on his site ... but that he's taken over this whole FLeetwood Mac enterprise? It's not far from nauseating.

"These items are made in Egypt and a portion of the proceeds
is donated to charities whose mission is to preserve the monuments of the . . . . "


Whenever someone honest, much less someone who already appears to be somewhat shady, says "a portion of the proceeds
is donated to charities" I cringe; I have seen to many organizations thorw a party using this line and give $.10 out of each dollar after costs.

Moreover, when they do not specifically name the charity is further heightens my suspicions. They could easily form their own charity, pay themselves a salary, and then donate the pitiful rest (after expenses which go to themselves) to some legit charity in Egypt.

I think this creep owes us a full accounting ( ).

until you win and if you’re in the group of the first 400 members to get
all questions right – you’ll receive a prize. We have some cool stuff for
these prizes. We found a collection featuring hand crafted Egyptian items
ranging from sterling silver earrings to ceramic necklaces to scarab beads
and bracelets. These items are made in Egypt and a portion of the proceeds
is donated to charities whose mission is to preserve the monuments of the
Ancient Land and to aid needy children in Egypt. If you’re a winner, we’ll
send you a prize from this collection. We’ll cover the shipping and
handling for all our winners too! Once we have our winners, we’ll move the
quiz over to the main Fleetwood Mac site for everyone to play – but without
the prizes! Stay tuned for more details. We’ll email you an announcement
when we begin the contest."



I am speechless. I'm sorry, but is this a Fleetwood Mac fan club or the QVC channel?

Too strange! I don't know what else to say.

"Within two weeks we expect to post a game of MAC FACTS on the Club Site."


Now why do you suppose it's going to take 2 weeks to post the game of facts? I suspect that Mr Todd does NOT know enough MAC FACTS to start this game so he's going to have to comb the Penguin site looking for those MAC FACTS.


Jonathan, you do know that the Penguin site is copyrighted so you wouldn't be planning on stealing the MAC FACTS from the Penguin site, the same way you stole the discography from the Penguin?




I've been LOL about his 400 pcs of jewlery. We can ONLY imagine the high quality of these items if "Jonathan Todd" is GIVING away !!!400!!! pieces! You can make your own calculation about what portion of the proceeds is going to make it's way to any charity. I'm sure we'll all be interested in seeing that receipt posted for everyone to see.

Sounds like to me they are getting desperate. More money needed!! I unfortunatly joined this "fan club" to get better seats for the concert which, like most of us, we got better seats with the general sale. I used to receive almost 4-5 emails a day from the fan club and now rarely get one. I think its cause I deleted all the other ones as I did not need to read the nonsense they sent.
This new "idea" sounds like a ploy to get more and I hate to say this..suckers..to join.
I did read one post where someone got their money back..is that true?
