OK. I'm lost. blink.gif -Senior Moment-

I created a login over there, clicked on a link, and I'm back over here. huh.gif

Anywho, I didn't (yet) pay the $29.00. Something about the annual payment scared me. What if there is no tour this year?

It doesn't look too scary to me. I'm a member of a railroad related discussion forum that charges $33/year fees to be able to use the forums.
They have similar verbage in their qualifications. They can ban you from the site and not refund your money. They don't, though, unless you go in there with the intention of being a troll, or are just plain not able to follow the rules.
At first read, I took exception to the part about a credit check, until I figured out that it is only to make sure that the $29 you send them via a credit card or whatever, is actually going to come to them. I think (think) it only means they will make sure the credit used is valid. But then, it could also be alluding to some type of purchase of items arrangement within this club that would require you to have credit. In either case, you would either give them that permission or don't join.
Lastly, while $29 is something none of us would like to lose, it isn't going to make or break things for anyone who can find a way to spend $29 on joining an internet fan club. I might do it myself, but not until this depression is over.

This place right here is the forum for that site. It directs direcly to here. OTH, I don't know what's in that club that makes it worth spending money for. I suppose you have to pay to find out.

SWFL KEN, you are sure right about that one. And I noticed as of yet you don't have to be a paying member to get into the forums. Will that change Ken?

Thanks

Will it change? I don't know ... we are always the last to know. I don't think that they should.

Go to the FAQ's section of bobseger.com...

They have a BUNCH of stuff about tix, the "platinum" package, etc.

Why would they list all that information if something wasn't in the hopper?

No, you don't have to pay to be on this discussion forum. Someone was just asking the question if that could be coming. I doubt it.
The thread we were running a conversation on is down about 6 from here at this time. Here's the thread name - I've always been a Seger fan, we play a Seger tune at our bar gigs.
By the way, who owns that yellow Bucket T in the photo on your demo CD? Cool.

Don Brewer is Bob Segers (and Grand Funk's) drummer and appears to be busy on those days.
