Golden Laminate Tour Pass - meet the band and access to all shows on ALL 2010 Tour dates

Holy Shit, this is awesome! Screw you, boss, I don't need that business trip to the US anymore...
But it certainly wouldn't hurt to see them a few more times over there.

I ordered the CD package. I'm not a fan of the cover, but that wasn't a factor; I just don't collect vinyl. I would have liked an option to buy the USB sticks with concerts on them without having to buy the larger package I didn't need. As far as the laminate goes, I don't see my city on the tour list yet anyway...so if they do come I'll just go and try to meet them after the show anyway, like many of us have done before.

I agree with most of this. But considering some fans are shelling out $100+ dollars for the pass and the guarantee to meet the band.. perhaps they won't be allowed to show up afterward?

The pass doesn't seem like such a good deal. The band always hangs out after the show and it costs nothing to approach and shoot the shit.

Yeah, maybe, and if that's the deal that's fine. If they come here, and if I can go that day, seeing them in concert again is enough. Meeting them before has been cool, but it's not like that was the reason I went to the show. Regarding how they would enforce this, maybe the pass works like a backstage pass or something. That would lend more control than on previous tours, where the band often came back out after the show and milled around at the edge of the stage with fans.

Are there any plans on selling the USB stick with the 4 shows from 2008/2009 outside of the deluxe packages? Or perhaps selling individual shows either on CD or as downloads? I think there's a need.
