Dream3 - I didn't say that all who bought club Joe tix were rich, some peeps scrimp, save and borrow to get them, they IMO are the poor guys getting screwed.
Slan - Indeed!

as dream was saying, you can not put a price on a memory. the cash for the meet and greet i did was WELL WORTH IT. i know that there are not a lot of signed js1200's out there and i have 1. mmm, worth it again. soon as june 19th rolls around, i will have a signed jem7v too. again what is a memory worth to you? i am fortunate to have some liquidity in some hard times.

Cappy i hear ya but unfortunately i thought i had seen it all until PSATMOR 08 tour the guy who won the b4 show meet and greet ummmmmmm didnt even go to the show get that how u ask simple on this crazy site there is no need for fans to show proof of purchase of tickets to enter the Joe giveaway well anyone would think if u entered the comp u would fork out the $80 for the show well not this guy in Oz he was standing there i started talking to him i said usual chit chat rock on hey F@#*ing Joe's in town he looked at me funny i said u coming to both shows he said nah his mate told him about the aftershow giveaway so he signed up was coming to meet Joe and go home cause he won.
So i took my frozen arse and sat back down where it had been on its lonesome self since 9am turned to my mate and his wife who arrived at like 5 pm cause had to work at top of my voice can u f$#*ing believe some guy entered and won backstage pass and isnt even going to the show i was major pissed off.

My kids college graduations will be a great memory. lol!
Seriously, I have so many amazing memories of Joe and the G3's. Joe is the best, so I can see why peeps would spend so much. It really stinks that fanfire or whoever is in charge doesn't make sure everyone gets what they pay for though.
Bottom line is we all love Joe. That's what's important.
I'm listening to Bob Marley. It's a dark rainy day outside. I wanna lay on the floor under a lamp and close my eyes and pretend I'm on the beach with the sun shining on meh. Yeah, it's that kind of a day. lol!

I have deleted my -Joe Satriani in Amsterdam- photo page which was listed in the Fan Sites. I have no need to further show admiration for a man who shamelessly charges US $250 to shake his hand in Club Joe for the rich. I could not shake hands without questioning the sincerity of someone's smile after charging money. In fact: on average prostitution is much cheaper and includes your ticket to "the show".

It's not about showing Joe anything, it's just about being disgusted (and artist credibility.)

Mikesb, Bet he's gonna try and tell us good things come in small packages too. lol! I think small things come in small packages, but that's just me. lol! Hopefully things are going just swell now.
Joe Satriani is one of the most decent guys out there, and as an artist it really doesn't get much better than him. If yer gonna argue artist credibility, yer barking up the wrong tree.

At the end of the day, and all things considered, cliches thrown out of the window, it's a game of two halfs (OK four quarters in the US), Joe is still just another one of millions of humans. He may well be supremely talented as a musician and an all round good guy to boot, but he still sits (or squats) down to crap like every other human. I keep hearing about what a wonderful person he is and how it is a dream come true to meet him but charging (and let's face it, Joe knows what the score is) what to me is an obscene amount of money for a meet somehow lessens him in my eyes.
