VIP IS A JOKE

[:(] 100.00 FOR A VIP TICKET TO THE MINISTRY SHOW IS A WASTE, ALL IT GOT ME WAS IN EARLY AND A CRAPPY BAG OF GARBAGE. NOT EVEN A MEET AND GREET. THE GIFT BAG IS JUNK !!! UNLESS YOU GET THE MEET AND GREET DONT BUY IT . THEY COULD OF AT LEAST GAVE A SHIRT. I MUST SAY THE SHOW WAS GREAT, BUT NOT ENOUGH OLD STUFF. AND HEMLOCK SUCKS !! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME GOING IN EARLY.

well what DO you get?

a very small signed poster ,arm band ,couple of post cards, a cd of 13th planet bands, a download card for songs i already have on cd . the bag on a whole is just advertisment for 13th planet . nothing worth 100.00. a big waste of money !!!

well this is the last time i get to see them live or so they say , the vip thing was hype and i guess i was foolish to buy into it

Christ, at least not the way the gas prices are spiking these days!

It’s over $4.00 a gallon for the “expensive Shit” (91 Octane) here in So. Cal. $4.09 to be exact. I really keep expecting to see a lot less cars on the road but it seems to be the same. I’ve got a 20 Gal. Toyota v6 Truck and I spent 75 Bucks to fill up…I make pretty decent money But I assume not many people have an extra $75 to throw in a gas tank! So is everyone putting Gas on their credit card or what??

The VIP stuff is stupidly over-priced, but some of you guys have really got to develop a nose for a rip-off.

i don’t see any reason to pay 100 bucks for any show. ok. i don’t pay anyways, most times, but there is a limit. al’s not the fuckin’ beatles. maybe, just maybe, there’s an urgency here that nobody’s picked up on.
i’d be curious to know if he has a will.

You think he is terminal? interesting angle!

He’s still got the health insurance from when he worked for WaxTrax/TVT.
That’s rock solid, right?

Right?

my understanding is this: you die with a spouse as your survivor, they get a good chunk no matter if you have a will or not. your kid(s) get zero if you don’t specify in a will. you don’t have to leave them ANYTHING.
al’s daughter should be looking into this. if she has any brains.
i met her once. seems like a good kid. patti and al’s kid. she was really little.she’s all grown up by now.
she needs to be aware of the possibility that if al goes, who handles his songwriting/publishing? loco ono?

Apparently Adrienne works for 13th planet now, I just hope she does not get the raw end of the stick whenever Al passes away.

i guess she needs to talk to the(ahem) big guy. she probably reads all of this crap we write anyway-- if she’s at the planetary hub.on the other hand, angie’s probably hypnotized her too.
poor kid. 23? doesn’t know what she’s in for and probably can’t ask outright at this point.she went through years of bs with al and patti. and now maybe everything LOOKS healthy.
kid, your dad won’t give you the time of day when he’s gone…

JFC, the title of this thread should be RIP.

Good ol’ universal health care!

Good ol’ universal health care!

You bastard. [:)]

I’m wondering how this thread went from being about the VIP ticket / gift bag being a joke, to about Al possibly on his way out of this plane of existence? [laugh] Bizarre and yet strangely humorous.

Universal health care. Pfffft. Who wants socialist ideals that could help bolster the morale of people? Not the US! After they take down the serious threats of the world, the socialists will be next! [laugh]

Speaking of socialism… Why am I paying taxes for the fire department? My house isn’t burning! Oh my God we have a socialist Fire Department! Is that such a bad thing? I’d rather privatize the fire department and socialize the health care! You gotta a better chance of needing some type of medical treatment before you’d need the fire department! (at least that’s how my life has been !! knock on wood about not needing the fire Dept!) Oh, well, we can’t have privatized Fire department because how would they know who to send the bill to? Oh yea? Once again it comes down to profit! Rest assured if they had a way to profit from the fire department…You can damn well believe that the same parallels drawn between Socialized medicine and communism (Pffffft!) would be drawn to the fire department! Weak scare tactics and poorly thought out arguments dominate the single brain cell shared by the pundits! I can hear their crap now, “well, if we socialize the fire department then everybody will set fires ‘cause no one will be responsible for the bill! Every pyro in the world will come here!”
