Maybe I'm naive, but I'd like to think that they're going to get way more for those tickets than that and it'll be a charity thing... I haven't gone to ebay yet to see what it says, but that's my hope. At least they started the bidding at face value--- can you imagine if they started lower and we had seen that!!! Although I'm thrilled that there's that HOPE of getting good tickets to the shows for being a club member, I won't believe it til I see it! Those horrible feelings of The Brand New Day tour are coming back to me when I see those outrageous additional fees that are being charged once again. This time I can't blame ticketbastard for my woes (if I don't get a decent seat). Don't mind paying the fees if I get what I want! Is this show in Chicago a ticketed event? Does anyone know if list members will have early ticketing access to all shows throughout the Send Your Love tour? Are we allotted the best tickets, or just tickets---does ticketbastard, etc., get their share first then we have certain amount allotted for us? That's when I'll start regretting that deluxe membership. Ugh. I hate this feeling!

In addition, you also get a premium membership in the fan club ($65 value if you didn't have the promo number to get $30 off). So, for $160, I could get what I've already paid $150 (tickets) + $35 (the membership) for!! Hey, looks like the fan club took care of us longtime members again. God, I love the fan club. Maggie >>
