Regarding what's lots of people are talking about (fan club, high concert prices...) actually, my point of view is that sting.com is really a very bad joke ! They ripped fans off ! No doubt ! Anyway, people should have been already alerted months ago when they announced such heavy packages prices ! Did you all really believe in that ?? In any sense, their 'premium membership" is like a social discrimination, trying to give the 'power' to the only ones who have enough money in the pocket.... We can't say, 'I'm a better fan that you as I gave 100 $ to Sting while you gave nothing !".... Nonsense at all ! And that's what they tried to put into shape in our heads in a way... But the main trouble behind that is they invented untrue stories to let people feel in a way proud of their investment.... But do they really enjoy advantages ? CD-Rom ? Beurk ! Let's better download great stuff on the 'peer to peer' internet channel ! Live Tickets ? The story of Ross is really a nice example ! For myself, I like Sting since 1984 but I would never have paid 100 $ for any show ! Who can really worth it ? Come on ! If you see one show from one Tour, you see almost every one ! They're at 95% the same ! Ok, if he would play special requested songs from the audience (nice idea, no ?), try every night new things, change his way of playing, Ok ! .... but he will never do that.... You know how he has now structured his own stuff..... Back in 1999, I already had that feeling... The Compaq, Jaguar stuff stayed in my head like a crappy thing.... I had the opportunity to see him Live, but I tried everything possible not to pay any French Franc for the show... Ok, I was there as "Journalista-Copycatta" in a way as I've asked for some pass, regarding some nice people I know, but I stayed right in my way of thinking ! Wake up Fans ! If you're not into that commercial behaviour, do not go to the shows ! It would give Sting's money illness a strongest credit ! Do not play that game ! We're not like cows ! React ! I know, it's easy to say that, but that's my main feeling ! We can't say it's disgusting if we don't show our bad mood ! Regarding especially the fan club.com, don't you think that there are actually on the web some better unofficial sites that 'offer' better material ? We can't afford giving them the opportunity to think that all they do is right or that as they use the Sting stamp they can do any silly things... We just need to receive back some nice things (in exclusivity) and not just be feed like hungy pigs they will at the end throw out when we'll stop providing them that famous money....
