So I paid $250 over the price of the ticket to get up close and get the goodies mentioned above...but I haven't gotten the goodies. What a con-job!! The marketing machine he has hired promised all of the above PRIOR TO THE SHOW! Well...no goodies, no explanation regarding VIP order shipping status AND TicketMaster has no info on one of the two packages....ON THE DAY OF THE SHOW. If he is so real, then why all the marketing hype? I like his music and I definitely like his new album but John Mellencamp's marketing machine does him a great dis-service by dropping the ball by not delivering the goodies prior to the concert. You can only get your tickets at will-call 90 minutes prior to the show...and Ticketmaster has no order status information on my VIP tickets....ON THE DAY OF THE SHOW!! Not the warm fuzzy I expected for my $1000! My advise to John is to dump Fanfire & Ticket Master and fire the Cherry Bomb staff.
