Club Nokia show--June 29

That would be cool if it did!!

[quote=Adam][quote=Dleodonuts][quote=Adam][quote=Dleodonuts][quote=Adam]We’re trying to reserve a bunch of tickets for LPU members for Kimmel. And they will be free. And they will go fast. There’s your warning. Prepare yourself.

reading through these posts, my goodness… there isn’t this much crying at funerals.

people need to understand, nobody is ever guaranteed a thing with these fan clubs, you’re just guaranteed the “opportunity” at things, like tickets, if quick enough to the draw. in fact, this is a disclaimer when you join. Quite simple people…

for the 70 of you that got pairs, see ya there…

[quote=Adam]Good news and bad news.

GOOD: We have a tickets for you guys for Kimmel.

BAD: It’s even fewer tickets than we had for this show.

More info soon.

CONGRATS to the lucky LPU members who received FREE tickets to Club Nokia show. Remember, there are not many things that are FREE in life and you should feel privileged to have the 0.714% chance of obtaining 1 ticket in which LP, Adam & the crew set aside for us.

On a side note, I can’t wait to attend the International Summit in Camden, NJ with several other LPU members [biggrin]

I was on time to buy my lotto ticket for $560M last month and I didn’t win it…This was about as far away from a fan club fail as I can think of. Not sure you quite understand the dynamic of this relationship.
XGames- “Hey LP, can we pay you to play this private show for us?” LP- “Sure, we’ll take your money to play. Any chance we can get some free tickets too so our fans can go to this PRIVATE SHOW that you guys planned for your own promotion?”

/facepalm

Bonnie, you need to check yourself.

Not everyone can shell out $250 or however much you’re suggesting for concert tickets, no matter how much they love the band. Saying that the Japan show was “handled perfectly” because you just paid $500 for a ticket means you completely missed the point. The point was to raise money for charity, not sell insanely-priced tickets so the people who had the means could buy their way in. I’m sorry you didn’t get tickets, but guess what? That’s life. Life isn’t fair. You can’t buy your way into everything.

If I remember correctly, you got to go to the House of Blues show. Was that not enough? Can you not accept that there are other fans who deserve to go to a special event too? Not everything’s about you. If the same people got to go to every show, they’d being shutting out so many fans. It’s only fair that everyone’s given as equal an opportunity as possible.

All I’ve ever seen you do on here is complain. Adam works incredibly hard to make LPU happen and give us these cool opportunities. He could be making a lot more money elsewhere, but he does this because he cares about LP and their fans. If you can’t appreciate how much this band and crew does for the fans, then you’re selfish and don’t deserve to even be given these opportunities.

So stop complaining and harassing Adam, and be grateful for what you’ve gotten.

Private HOB show ($100), two listening parties (FREE), XGames (FREE), Jimmy Kimmel (FREE) in the past month. If you think you were scammed and LPU is doing this maliciously just for their personal enjoyment, you do not speak for LPU/ fanbase as a whole. I enjoy the fact that I get a shit ton of opportunities to meet the guys in a structured environment, whereas a band like Muse, you have to catch in the wild for any interaction since they have no fan club. LP didn’t have to set up any of this shit for us. They could have just given us a damn t-shirt and took our money.

Team Free Will… FTW!!!

Not to mention it goes back to US and to their charities! My summer would not be what it has and will be without the LPU and Linkin’s generosity. So grateful, it hurts.

If anyone has a extra ticket that they are willing to sell let me know! Haha I’ll buy you dinner too. Nothing fancy tho

[quote=Adam]Bottom line is… anytime we can hook up members, even if it’s a small number of members, we’re going to. No, not everyone will get to do everything. But think of the members in countries/cities where LP never has and never will play.

It’s upsetting to hear some (and definitely not all!) members complain about a FREE benefit we’re offering, and also a benefit that was never even promised. We didn’t have to offer ANY tickets, but I’m sure the members who got tickets are happy we did.

This is life. Sometimes you get stuff. Sometimes you don’t. Sad we go through this every single time we offer a limited number of something.

Again, I know not ALL of you feel this way. I appreciate those of you who appreciate how hard we work to hook you guys up with as many opportunities as possible. Makes the extremely hard work we put in worth it.

Well said. Thanks for everything you do Adam :slight_smile: LINKIN PARK FOR LIFE!!!

I must commend Adam for doing an awesome job at LPUHQ, not just with helping us fans enjoy linkin park more, but also putting up with people like Bonnie who fail to see the point of being in LPU. Thanks for all you do for us and the band.

Hey Adam, is Bonnie’s membership almost over? Do us all a favor man! Hahah now, that’s something I’d PAY for.

Wow. Lucky, haha. It really is an awesome venue, though; saw Mindless Self Indulgence there a while ago. Have fun, man.[/quote]

Cool, thanks dude.
