Are the Meet & Greets becoming a joke ??
Wanted to start this thread to get peoples reactions to the meet and greets. If you have been to one on THIS tour, tell us what you think. If something annoyed you about it, let us know. Also let us know how long the meet and greet lasted, whether they signed anything for you (not including the pre-signed poster) and if you got to use your own camera for the photo.
Last year the M & G's lasted about 3-4 minutes and the band signed 1 to 2 items for you. Although they were short, it was fun to chat with them and get something signed. From what I read from the first night or two of the tour, you are now given less than 30 seconds with the band, are handed a pre-signed poster, a quick photo is taken (perhaps not even with your own camera) and then you are ushered out. And on top of that, you paid $150 a head to be treated like crap by the folks running the M & G. If Train keeps this up, fans will stop caring. To quote Pat "Everybody needs a little Respect", well Pat, how about your fans who pay big money to meet you. Show some love like you have in the past.
So please do let us know how your experience went.

Just a tip: our email from Artists Arena said to get to the box office no later than 7. Because of traffic, we got there at 6:50pm. Imagine our shock when they handed us an envelope with the passes and instructions to be at a certain gate NO LATER than 6:45pm. We had to run across the venue and luckily, management/staff still let us in. However, I would have mean extremely upset if they hadn't since we followed the instructions in the email. Artist Arena was not apologetic and said their only function was to sell the packages but the venue, management and band dictated how they were actually conducted. Moral of that part of my story is to get there early and take their 'instructions' with a grain of salt. Enjoy your M&G!
