Folks, I think it is really sad that some of you have taken the stance you have on this. The first posting started with a message saying "No real fans will see the gig", or something to that effect, so I replied with, well I consider myself a real fan, and I am getting to go. I then posted a little session of how we manage to acheive some of the things we do, and rather than inspiring some of you, most of you decided to get pissed about it. I am willing to bet come time of the concert, that about 10-20 of us will get in to this show, and it wont involve loads of money, it wont involve knowing band members, it will just happen. You guys don't seem to understand this, Fred, Andrea, Giovanni, Lydia, Jutta, Me, Debs, Ross, Margie, Maggie, plus a whole host of others that go to these shows, none of us have high paying jobs (sorry guys...), all of us have commitments, jobs, rents to pay. I have spent about 3 hours a day since I got tickets for Deb and I trying to get more tickets for others. When Central park happened, Fred ran around like a lunatic trying to get more for many of you. Together Fred and I ran around like fools trying to get everyone tickets for Tuscany never mind the countless others, this is not exclusive, we all want to help, yet many of you take offense... I believe I have said this before, if you work all the time, and you don't manage to do the special things like going to shows etc, what is the point to working ? I work about 50 hours a week, and I would be seriously pissed off if after all that work, I couldnt do the things that I want to do. For those I seem to have offended, I apologize Jeremy -------Original Message------- From: Ross Viner <discoduck@shaw.ca> Sent: 11/13/02 10:32 PM To: police@mailman.xmission.com Subject: RE: [Police] Real Fan
What? who said that? I've been reading all the e-mails (or so I thought). Who wrote only true fans will go to the HOF? I think there must be a misunderstanding somewhere as no here would suggest that (at least I find that hard to believe).
I mean read the note that I thought it referred to, backwards, forwards, sideways' and inside out and nowhere does he even suggest that only real fans go to these things so obviously I'm missing something. Or is someone putting words in someone else's mouth because of Jealousy? Can someone forward me the note in question?
