Would you pay $20.00 for a cd of an artist (that you already have) at their concert if you could meet them after the show?
I did this last night and really didn't think anything of it other than it was really cool. When I told one of my other friends they didn't think it was right that they are making you pay to meet them. I totally didn't EVER think of it like that until she mentioned it. But I am positive I would do it again. How about you? No depending on who it is, just think of it as someone you like a lot :wink:
-
I'd do it!!! I'd do almost anything to meet Nessa... :roll:
-
If that was how it was set up and the ONLY people that got to meet the performer(s) were the ones that bought the CD. I would think that's pretty lame. Would I take advantage of it? Definitely not if I had the CD already... I voted no to the poll. You're friend was right on to say that the band was making people pay to meet them. Doesn't seem right...
-
well I still think it is great even if I do have to pay. Think of all the concerts that we go to where we never get to meet the artist. I mean I have seen MB 5 times and never had the pleasure.
It is kinda bad if you think of it that way but I still think it is cool. I bought the cd w/o a meeting so why not buy it again for a meeting and give the second/first to a friend :wink:
Even Vanessa was selling her CD for like 15-$20 and it only had an autograph.
I was also thinking about book signings isn't that kinda the same?
I guess everyone has their own opinion, that's why it's a poll, hahaha
-
Definatly without a doubt!
I already have tons of extra copies of LP CDs, why not add one!
[DM]
-
no, i save my monies, they're rich enuf already :roll:
-
I would have to say though...It would be a very select number of artists I'd pay that for though...I still think it is a rip off, but for me some of them would be worth it.
Linkin Park however, if your in LPU you get to meet them for free at their shows. The LPU is the fan club, it costs $25, but you get your money's worth: A LP t=shirt, autographed pic, 4 guitar pics, bumper sticker, keychain, an CD with unreleased rare songs and demos and some other stuff, along with presale tickets, access to extra multimedia and the meeting the band, that doesn't sound to greedy, seeing $25 is about the price of just a shirt at Hot Topic...
But I'd pay $20 to meet Vanessa, Josh Kelley, Staind, and a few others
-
I believe in capitalism and would do it in a heartbeat.
-
Yeah, I would. Because the picture I got with them after or before the show would be "Priceless"!!!!!! :wink:
-
does not apply to a band - but i went to this event where there were celebs - discussing something that had happened in thier life and afterwards if you purchased $50 of specific brands of men's merchandise you could get a picture with them - so i purchased so nasty-ass perfume - took the picture and (in a mall store)and i went to another dept and returned it less than 10 min later.... so i would probably return a cd to hmv or walmart or something no questions asked if i wasnt crazy about wasting my money on a cd i already had....
-
i would i would i would
-
DUH!! hell yeah
-
No, that is ridiculous.
-
yeah... i would! if it was someone i was a big fan of!
-
I don't even meet them when they are right in front of me and it is free! Why would I pay to do it....
I wished it wouldn't be that blunt....I WOULD however meet them if they were supporting a charity and I had to meet them to donate :wink: :razz:

why don't you? :?
Well, because so many people want to meet them. Why bother them? I do however want to meet some people who were famous but are now homeless and such things so I can help them.....oh well......
Also two people I want to meet are Jessica Weiser and Eric Lisardo. Now that would be cool.
tylor
-
Wait, I've already met Eric Lisardo........
Maybe again......erm.......if possible.

The poll said I wasn't allowed to say "It depends on who it is" so overall in general there's not very many people i go out and buy their CDs. Hell I don't even download MP3s anymore. Radio works alright for me. But for specific folks I'd be waing the cash around...
-
I definetly would. It blatantly is selling meetings, but who cares!? You buy the music for an extortionate price anyway! Its not often that you have a chance to meet a star, and if something is more concrete than hanging around outside the stage door then why not!?
-
only if it was someone i've been DYING to meet (ie: Taking Back Sunday, Stephan Jenkins, Rooney.....).
at the broadway shows in NYC they have it so that if you pay $250 you can meet and dine with the stars (all the money goes to an AIDS research foundation)........$250 to meet Bernadette Peters.....I'm there :D

That sounds cool......If only I was into broadway......If I am ever in NYC and have an extra $250 I might do it anyway.......
By the way, I have no idea who she is LOL

lol she's one of the most famous Broadway/musical actresses EVER, and my personal favorite.
-
I would if it were someone I really liked, and especially if I knew it was probably the only chance I had at meeting them at that particular venue.
I think it is kind of cool, especially for the people who are at the show as "first timers" or people who have not but want to buy the CD and then they get to have it signed and whatever too.

Exactly, how often do you get to meet a star. If the money's for charity, even better. I would even miss work. If Nessa was coming here for a signing, I'd miss work for that.
-
I would for sure

Most dutch record stores charge more than 20 euro's (= $23) for a cd. If I can get it cheaper by meeting someone, then I guess I can make some time for him/her. :wink:
