My sister just paid to meet Paul Stanley at an art gallery here in STL. Then her and her husband paid $1,500 for a copy of one of his paintings.

Pay hundreds of dollars to get up close and personal with sweaty men after you've been packed in an aeran with other sweaty men for 2 hrs....sounds like a sweat deal.

Funny you say that I saw something on TV before New Years saying some Las Vegas club was paying her 500,000 just to host it.

All of this is bullshit. Any band that does this should be shot in the fucking face with a 12 gauge.

I'm glad my favorite band is Blood for Blood because to attend a "meet & greet" just meant standing by the bar.

This is more truth than most people care to realize.

Plus... Truth is, I dont really understand what the fuck everyones bitching about. They can charge twice the amount, if people are willing to pay for it, so be it. If you're not gonna pay that amount, its easy, dont go. Some other poor schmuck will do it. If the band is happy, fine. If the fan who blew several hundred dollars is happy, its ok by me.

That would definitely be a part of the Motorhead package, along with picking up skanks together.

I just think its shitty. They wouldnt be famous in the first place if it wasnt for fans and now they put themselves on such a high pedistal that they will charge people hundreds of dollars for a handshake and a glorified poloroid picture.

Dave Mustaine is a washed up douche.
Last good record was Peace Sells in 1986.
Fuck him and his coffee. He can blow me.
