WHY WOULD THE BAND WANT TO MEET YOU PEOPLE???
im sorry but i am also so fucking frustrated with these fucking asshats that dont know how to read things thoroughly and pay the fuck attention to details...
in no way did it say that VIP was a meet and greet...not in the beginning,not in the middle and not now...get over it people...why do people insist on reading only what they want???
i am just so stoked to see two of my fav bands again(knot and Disturbed)that i dont really give a fuck about meeting anyone...i want to hear and feel the music as it was meant to be felt and heard..LIVE!!
and i am sorry,but with the whining,little girl bitching and moaning i am seeing on this board by some supposed fans, i am just wondering why anyone,esp the band,would want to meet some of you dumbass people?? why would the band want to meet someone who would leave the show hours before they even hit the stage?? why would the band want to meet people who would call band members names simply they(the supposed fan)didnt fully comprehend the idea that VIP was not a meet and greet???
you feel suckered because you spent some extra cash on a limited edition cd on a band that was suppose to be 'your favorite' band???...umm yeah...if they were really your fav band,you would know that DIsturbed has always and i bet will continue to be, one of the most accessible,down to earth,all around nice guys in the industry...there is never any pretense,no rock star attitude...they stand around for hours,in all weather just to show their appreciation to us by signing things,taking pics,etc...
please people do the band justice and either learn how to read or just shut the fuck up...

After over 30 years of my life in metal i had the honor to meet quiet a few bands and i know how tough the schedule is for the most of them. Press want to have interviews and stuff like that. Besides going on tour is not just fun, it's hard work. I'm just glad i can see them on stage. And everyone whining about free drinks and free food, so what? I'm willing to pay for my stuff and if i get something for free it's an extra and i'll be polite and say thank you. All this need and greed stuff behaviour is for people that think they are above everyone that work hard in the musicbusiness and just because they paid for a limited CD or for a concert they own them. Those people should be ashamed of themself.
don't do as I do!!
Rockin at Mayhem
I was at the concert yesterday in Virginia and it rocked! I have seen Disturbed 4 times and met them once. I pre-ordered the cd,got the VIP access, paid for my food and drinks, and had a wonderful fucking time. I didn't meet the band but I didn't think that I was going to get to! I am a huge fan and I pre-ordered the cd/dvd set so I could be one of the first to have it and I bought the tickets for the show so that I could watch them do what I love soo much! I am a fan and will always be a fan! I can't wait to see them again and it's only been 24hr since they took the stage! I wish everyone would QUIT BITCHIN about what they didn't get and enjoy what they do!

well said.....and hello:)

I agree
Amen to that, I'm just upset because, I was supposed to have joined you in the Hartford party, but thanks to certain overprotective people, and the stupidity of some of the workers there, I was deprived of that extra fun. (Sorry to other people that couldn't get a spot at that one, if I had known it was going to happen that way, I would've left my spot for someone else to actually use it...)
Agreed
I agree. There was never anything concrete about a meet-n-greet with anyone. So people whining about it is just a waste of time and precious energy. The only thing I had a problem with was getting my code from the LE. I got it in the end and it was all good.
Doesn't matter who you or where you go. There will always be people that are naturally negative towards everything. Just the nature of the beast I guess. As my dearly departed Grandma always said. If you don't have anything positive to say, keep your fucking mouth shut. Good words to live by Grandma.
TRUE!!!
Like some of the people below me said Disturbed is one of the most easily accesible bands to meet.
I went to see them in Richmond VA back in May (before the VIP thing) and I think that maybe David or Dan came out the front doors to meet some of the fans. Cause alot of the people up front started screaming and such.
I didn't get to meet them cause I was half-way down the line but damn it I was glade to be there and there is always next time.
Point is as long as Disturbed keeps doing what they are doing there will always be a chance to meet the band.
Disturbed Bitchs Unite!!!
Well Said My Friend! I could'nt agree more... This place has become a huge whinefest! And I can't stand to come here anymore! Everyday it's the same old shit... BooHoo!!! I'm so disappointed... WAAAAAAA! What a bunch of babies! This is'nt a fansite, it's a kindercare.... and I've had enough!
The only reason I still stop by is to check on the news and to see if Adam as posted any new clips or pics. It's just so sad that the Guys have another fansite that is full of bitchy whiny brats.

Wow, first of all... I'm on
Wow, first of all... I'm on the list for one of the VIP parties and I knew from the beginning that it wasn't a meet and greet. No, guys... it never said meet and greet. That's all just overexcitement... but wow. i've never heard anyone complain so much about something they really, really shouldn't care about. this is my first time reading disturbed blogs, but this one is rediculous. there's no reason to be so rude. we're all fans here, and there's no need to brag about your life's work on being such a great fan. if anything you should be informative and understanding towards the people who enjoy the same music as you...and i think these stupid little fights between such hateful people are the ONLY thing disturbed would truly frown upon. come on people... where's the love?
Completely Indestructible Disturbed Fan!
since this is your first
since this is your first time reading blogs here,i will let ya slide...fact is,we,fans have been beyond patient...we have even tried to understand people's frustrations but when supposed fans come on here and start to bash the band simply because they dont know how to pay attention then im sorry,but i get angry as do many others...people were told a long time ago that VIP was not meet and greet and yet they still only read what they wanted to...there is a limit to my tolerance for bullshit...
there is no bragging,it is simple common sense and common decency...

oh yeah...
just to throw this in,Slipknot had promised fan club members(which i am a proud member)a meet and greet at Mayhem...due to logistical issues they were unable to have them,though it was announced that they would(they have now worked it out but only very few are selected and you dont know until close to your show date)...i dont think i saw any Slipknot fans blame the band...they understood that it wasnt the bands fault and they knew,because they were fans,that the band was appreciative for all their support..
WOW,who would have thought Slipknot fans would be a little more mature than Disturbed fans..it was basically a given that there would be a meet and greet,i mean it actually said MEET AND GREET(UNLIKE what the presale VIP said)..and yet,when that couldnt happen they didnt pout,bitch,call the band names or make stupid posts about how disappointed they were...

LOL
Look , I know what I read and I've read that other people saw the same thing. Now maybe, just maybe your the idiot that can't read. I'm no hater I used to love this band in fact I still do. It's their web page administrators who have the problem here. Why do you think they had to put the little comment in there. Just because? No, because they had to put something in there to get the pre sales up. Then once thats done they can go back and make a correction so that they look like it was just a misunderstanding. Their Web page people along with WB records are the idiots. Did you buy the pre sale CD? I'm willing to bet you didn't get it until a few days after release. Hmmmmm see my point. Maybe the band isn't about the money but their record company and WEB page people sure are. Peace!
Uhhhh, no...
It is not web site "administratorS", because there is only ONE administrator. Her name is Spoox, and she NEVER said there was going to be a Meet-n-Greet. The WB is a totally different entity, and this site had NOTHING to do with the preorder sales & passwords.
You can rag the record company, but BACK OFF the site admin! She never "corrected" herself, because she never misspoke!
Get your facts straight before YOU misspeak.
Never Slow Down, Never Grow Old...
wow,you have a real problem
wow,you have a real problem with assumptions old man....if ya like,i can show the email i got the day i purchased the LE and that day would be the day it was FIRST OFFERED!!!...and being an actual fan,i know the Admin of this page and i know for a fact she would never LIE or try to cover up anything...no offense but if ya knew anything about this business,you would know that pre-sales are great but in the long run,they mean nothing considering the band,the label and anyone else involved cant even claim them until the actual release date...they didnt even charge me officially(the funds can be 'held' but not officially taken from a credit card) until the release date simply because if they did,they would be in violation(WB that is)...i know my shit grandpa..
they put the 'little comment' on there because they saw idiots like yourself assuming that the VIP was a meet and greet...and check around,fucktard,there have been several comments not just by Admin but by fans themselves,saying specifically that is was NOT a MEET AND GREET...Mayhem started close to a month ago and you didnt happen to see any of the posts made on this board about VIP????
good lord old man,just admit you forgot to take your meds and needed to leave the show early...

Don't trouble yourself.
Don't trouble yourself too much, Star. Remember that not only do fans post here but also Haters who just want to stir up trouble.
Just remain above it and pay it no mind. Leaving before the show? Sounds to me like a Hater or an upset Stalker. :)
Either way it's clearly someone that doesn't have all their marbles in their head. Just my humble opinion.
Rock On!
Webmaster of www.werdisturbed.com
and not to mention.. John
and not to mention.. John has made an cameo apperance at every VIp tent btw.. shows you not to many people know the band as it seems.
Meeting Us
I think the band wants to meet us, but this may not be the tour. If they do another Music As A Weapon Tour they may set up some Meet and Greets. Who Knows, it's the people running the tour, Disturbed mivght not have time, the press may want interviews,and local DJ's.
Never said Meet & Greet
Though I was hoping that since it was VIP that maybe they'd show up but if not that's ok.
John popping up, pretty cool! *crosses fingers*
A tent where i can eat free food (no matter what it is) and get free drinks and rest in shade? Sounds good to me!
Last time me and Phil went to a concert we spent 80.00 on food and drinks! *faints*
It's about the music people and having a good time.
