My impression, albeit possibly wildly mistaken, is that since the re-invetion of the fanclub, it's become a more commercial entity than a labour of passion. It feels like Tina, Dave & Wendy have the greatest intentions, but are unable to do anything without some corporate agreement from some office in the US... If that's the case, I can only imagine they must be as disappointed as everyone else, because at the end of the day, they take the flak for what they might not be responsible for. I myself found the fan club extremely disappointing value for money, so didn't renew after the first year. That's not to say that it IS poor value for money - I was probably expecting more for mine, compared to the only other fan club I'm 'spoiled' by... :) My opinion, and not necessarily correct.

I think this is the only way to make ourselves hear. I did not renew mine because I preferred the old version on paper , at the time we had something in our hands , although it was not Heaven ( you only have to see other fan clubs offers from other bands ). Least of all , see Stewart for example he gives us for FREE some unreleased material through Gio's site .... there is nothing to compare !! Support Stewart and Andy and let go see them alive , it's worth it .... That's my opinion Take care Michel ------------ ALICE HAUT DEBIT A 29,95 EUR/MOIS ------------ ALICEBOX, l'offre Internet tout en 1 : ADSL, téléphonie, modem Wi-Fi et en exclusivité la hotline gratuite 24h/24 !
