Joe Satriani (arguably the most able rock guitarist of all time) is touring over here from May. This is what you get for a £130 ticket. Compare it to what everyone got from Ticketmaster for their VIP ticket


"CLUB JOE" MEET & GREET TICKET PACKAGE - UK 2008 - (£130.00)

One Premium Reserved Seated Ticket within the first 6 rows in front of the stage, or GA PIT ticket (where applicable).

Exclusive 60 minute Pre-show Meet and Greet with Joe Satriani.

Q & A and autograph session (includes souvenir 8X10 Joe Satriani photo).

Personal Photograph with Joe.

Official "Club Joe" VIP Laminate.

Set of signature Satriani guitar picks.

Two lucky guests per show will be invited to watch the show's encore from the side of the stage!

On top of this, ticket holders are encouraged to bring up to two items of memorobilia that they'd like Joe to sign. Oh, yeah, that includes guitars!

Now is that looking after your fans? Some people are just a little more down to earth and in touch with others I think. Prince gives his fans a glimpse of his brilliance and a cheeky grin. Joe treats them as an equal.

Satriani is Great,this VIP package is around 120 euro.
I think this time i wil get a normale ticket for about 35 euro Tilburg 013.
Paradiso is during the euro soccer time and i am thinking of going to austria then so thats a shame.
If you never seen Joey you realy missed out on music!!!!

Peace

Got my tickets for in may 013 tilburg.

That's irrelevant, really. If you sell, for sake of argument, 100 VIP tickets, there will be 100 people at the meet and greet who all want a piece of you, whether you are Prince, Satriani, John Lennon, ALF the Alien or Jesus Christ himself.

I think what Joe is doing is very commendable and I just wish I didn't think his music sucked!

Prince certainly likes to maintain the air of mystery and mystique, whereas Satriani likes to come across as your average everyday Joe who just happens to play music. Guess you pay your money and take your choice, huh?
