Hi,
I
was wondering does anyone else in Australia think that the 'Backstage
with JBJ' fanclub is getting TOO EXPENSIVE?
All
I get is 4 magazines a year (lately with no useful information in
it). The only time it was almost worth it was when I first joined,
i got a sticker, guitar pick, bookmark and a few other small
items.
I
have heard that other band fanclubs (ie: Metallica) provide their
fans with much more stuff throughout a years membership. For around
$40 US to stay a member which ends up as around $70 Australian
because of how low our dollar is, it is getting a bit rough. I think
we should be compensated a bit better, I don't expect to get
tickets to every show, but for the amount we end up paying I think
we should get a better magazine!
The
magazine is really starting to annoy me actually, I can't
waited to get it each time, but then when I do, all it has
is information from fans. I don't mind getting some of that, but
not a whole magazine full of it and nothing else that is useful!
Their website has plenty of other information, why can't they provide
some of that in the magazine. Or provide fans with some free stuff
(ie: posters, stickers, etc).
Don't
get me wrong, I LOVE BON JOVI and can't wait to get each magazine
to hear more about them, but I don't feel like I am getting a fair
deal for my membership.
To
top it off anyone living outside of Melbourne would have been more
annoyed when the band decided to only play there. This would have
been our one chance to gain back some compensation for our money,
but then it was taken away from most of us non-Melbourne fans.
Please
let me know if this is also an issue for you. Any comments on this
topic are greatly appreciated.
Remember
to keep the faith,
From Nadia Lakatos
