any clue what will the site look like for non 77$ members?

will there be any shop where album can be purchased online? Any live shows info or regular website stuff?

I'm wondering that myself...Ater the Purple Dynamite goes off...If we don't put our credit card numbers in within' 24 hours...The site will probably fade to black.

There is two sites: 1 for paying members - 1 for non paying members - basically a webcommercial on whats availabe for paying members.

The only difference is the paying members get inside info on concerts-tix - special forums - sneek peek videos of past. All other 'pay items' are available to 'public' if they choose to pay for items.

PS-The albums are 3 out of 5 stars. MPLSOUND is best IMO.

I'm now in two minds about joining after the news about the two different versions of the lotus flower album. I will probably just get the CD version and grab The morning after song from elsewhere.

I hate this kind of modern day marketing ploy.

It brings to mind To paint a Vulgar picture, not even an extra track and a tacky badge.

You would have thought you would get something extra from joining not something different.

He will probably defend it by saying "Hey you get the video for Crimson with the membership"

Non-memberz will probably c the site az it is right now-blank tv screen,black background,and the same 3 cassettez.

well nothing is sure yet. for all we know dr fb got things wrong.
he said on the site this info is not 100% sure.

His fans all over the world will not be able to put their information in within a special time period. I'll bet a lot of folks can't even get thru for DAYS, there's bound to be glitches arising on this site.

Yeah, I know times have changed but I like the idea that there is one album for everyone. I'm really interested in buying the album ( hard copy) but to get a few extra songs I'm not too keen on paying $77. It'll be interesting to read along to the lyrics of $.

I guess I just miss the old days when an album was an album.

Where did you hear that there might be different versions of the albums?

Target release has Crimson and Clover but not The Morning After

Lotus Flow3r website download version has The Morning After but not Crimson and Clover.

but it's true

I'm debating paying....
I would love to have access to all that stuff
but it's a bit much

it's marketing suicide. It's hard to imagine how someone with such a genius musical past can be so stupid.

The site as it is now, will change. Regardless of membership everyone will have the same intro screen and abilities; however a 'section' for members will only be 'locked' if you do not have password. - includes vids-forums-'special sections'. The online 'store' is available to EVERYONE!

Okay, i just woke up and while having a coffee trying to figure out which site-link is for the non-77$ members ... or is it the same link ?
I really would like to have payed for full access, but my budget-pocket is seriously tight at this moment.
Also saw info about 7$ shipping-costs for the shirt ... that's gonna be charged from creditcards ?... because i don't own any cc's.
Can you still sign-up without these requirements ?... Thanx in advance !

it looks like the only way to get the albums at the moment is to pay 77$ (7$ for t-shirt delivery is optional)

mschirmer said:

I agree. Wise words.

I'm just watching the Kiss Video and looking around the site...have CD on order waiting for that not got the cash £54 yet to join the site so will have to sit it out for awhile...
