absolutely it couldn't have come from DDM.
DDM is all about the package and the chance to meet. You get a very cheaply made backpack, inside is a t-shirt and some other memoribilia, you get to have a buffet of food with cheap wine and then they draw "tickets" to meet them. It's a lottery. Your cost also pays for a seat **somewhere** in the first few rows, but there is no guarentee where.
To give you an idea of how much a scam it really is: I met someone at the show you bought tickets just 4 days before the concert for $80 each and got THIRD row, while those that paid for the VIP, paid $400 for crap and a chance to meet them, were stuck in rows behind her!!!
It is not a guarentee. If you got to meet them, you won a contest of some kind. DDM does this meet and greet by lottery only.

The time I did it, they already have the winners chosen before hand. When they picked up their tickets they had some kind of marking on the envelope that said they were the meet and greet winners.
And the food was cold and horrible. I could get better at a convenient store.

Seriously guys--check out the DDM photo archives, you will see the same women at every f___ing one of them.
At orlando, I actually laughed at how many women my age were dressed to the nines to meet them and attend a concert. I'm talking spike heels, lots of makeup, etc... and--I checked the photos--surprise!! the same women!!
No way.. not worth my money.

I had better luck back in the "old days" when there was hardly ever an official meet and greet. got to hang with DD and Power Station just by being in the right place at the right time!

I am surprised to hear that so few people actually get to meet them-that doesn't seem fair. INXS had similar packages but if you bought the package you DEFINITELY got to meet the band. I always get the packages right behind VIP and I am very happy-I don't need to meet the band that bad and you can always find other more creative ways (and free) ways to meet them if you really want to. I am glad that I never bought those meet and greet packages. Thanks for the heads up everyone. I think they need to change their policy. Also, it seems really strange to me that the same people keep winning-that is not fair at all.

^^^^^from what i understand the band can get a bit pissy about seeing the same people all the time too or so I've heard (especially simon) so you think they would do something about that.
