Steveh Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 Greg, Yes, it would be amazingly great if the boys make a CD. Hey - anything's possible! Seems like our patience is paying off.Steveh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 I am just glad to see that this is happening. Discounts? I'll be first in line to pay a premium just to be there. And to any of the group getting cold feet, do as Tom Petty said: "I won't back down". Let the Spotlight shine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted August 22, 2004 Author Share Posted August 22, 2004 I don't believe there will be any need for DISCOUNTS :-) But I have just had it confirmed that the guys are working on some arrangement that will allow for a presale of tickets. That's all I know right now.Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy K. Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 I don't expect discounts, that for sure....but I would like preferred seating. After all, we are the dedicated people that were there and ready for Eric......it would really gall me to see some "fair weather fans" buying "gold circle" seats on some corporate deal, get these before the die-hards.To give you an example of how being a die-hard fan is rewarded, look no further than the Grateful Dead......they offer "dead heads" not only preferential seating, but even allow fans to be in a "taping section" to tape the concerts for their own personal use.(Although with small hand-held equipment, the sound quality may be dubious, so I wouldn't go that far. And it's just better to just wait until the official live concert CD/DVD comes out).And the majority of the fans on this board are not within easy driving distance of Cleveland, either.....so it's fly or take a real long drive.......now, that's dedication!!

Raspbernie Posted August 22, 2004 Author Share Posted August 22, 2004 Relax. One of the prizes ISN'T that Eric writes a song about you :-) Still, it's probably no big deal for all of you budding songwriters out there. I mean, Mar-LENE? Seventeen, prom queen, silver screen, nothing in between, yellow submarine, jelly bean, fax machineÖ Could it be any easier?Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted August 22, 2004 Share Posted August 22, 2004 Cute, Bernie....very cute.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Although, I AM wondering what the "bonuses" will be....you SURE he won't write a song about me ? Ok,ok....Truth is....I'll be thrilled to hear the guys play ANYTHING. Unlike some of the lucky people here, I was never able to see the Raspberries live. This is like a dream come true !!

gordharris Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 How much will the ticket probably be?If I can't make it, I will buy one any ways, and keep it for a souvenoir.And keep it behind glass, good thinking huh.What is the price range, between 50- 60.00 dollars, Or a little less?

gordharris Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 For you who cannot make it, that would be a good thing, to buy one anyways, The Raspberries is a great Reunion collectible.Do we still get the full package? (Bonus)Not only that, it will be supporting my favourite singers Eric and Wally, Jim and Dave.Trips cost a lot of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordharris Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Any idea what the face of the ticket will look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordharris Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 You know, I think The Raspberries Reunion concerts will start after the Christmas Holidays, around March.After all, the guys need to spend Christmas with their families. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poor4Life Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Here's hoping if they hit Chicago, they come to the Rosemont Theater. Acoustically it's perfect, not a bad seat anywhere, and it's not huge cavern either.Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collin Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Sorry to jump right in without so much as an intro, but colour me excited. Has anyone given any thought of a possible opening act for the 'Berries reunion? I ask only because another veteran power pop act, Youngstown's Blue Ash, have recently reformed and I think it would be awesome to maybe see them on the bill given the group's similarities. A real Cleveland homecoming!...and if anyone amongst the powers that be think that this might worth pursuing, I can put you in contact with Frank Secich from Blue Ash.

bahoodore Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I think for Marvin to get a "special fan-package" he must sign a confession that he secretly listens to WD with a box of kleenex by his side.All jokes aside...I'll be there without a doubt...bahoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor4Life Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Personally, I'd love to see Burton Cummings open for them, just solo, without a band.Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collin Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 sorry if i'm the start of a disturbing trend! thanks for the warm welcome. never trust a collin with only one l. they're shady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveh Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 If the berries plan to have an opening act, why not pair up with a band they have played with in the past? Such as The Grass Roots? They are still touring. Burton Cummings would be great, too.Steveh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
