(lol @ Whisky A Go Go!!
Oh man this sounds just too great:
"meet and greets with the band with exclusive 3D posters and laminates,"
" as well as a Platinum Package featuring a private 20 minute guitar lesson with Gus G. "
I know that Artist Arena are pretty good in that stuff. I kinda know this from Iced Earth, when they came to Switzerland in Feb '09. I bought those VIP tickets, but Artist Arena cancelled it, because of not enough intrest. I called those guys because it was like 1 week before the show and sometimes... well I was so afraid to not be able to get any tickets one week before the show. In the end it was no problem, I hung out infront of the place the gig was, like 3 hours before the show and met almost all the people from IE, so I kinda had that meet and greet for free, hehe
long story, I know.. but it was great!
This is the first time I read that anyone is doing this Guitar lesson thingy.. and I think it's cool, but also a bit a sell-out thing. I would do it too if I was in Gus's position, but nah.. yeah.. it's a border thing. I hope everyone is enjoying the Packages they booked, especially the ones with the lesson!
too bad there is none available in Europe!
