2018 VIP Upgrade

Tickets to the performance must be purchased separately. VIP Upgrade available on first come first served basis to ticket holders only.
The meet and greet package sounds similar to last tour. The VIP upgrade is different as you need to purchase tickets separately and then do the upgrade. The party was fun, I will try to attend as many as I can No costume contest, though I think I may still dress up. I should do okay at Jeopardy! :lol: I like the wristwatch and setlist. Would love to trade some on my extra setlists (or other stuff from my collection) for other shows I'm not attending (or ones I'm attending and not doing meet and greet) if people have extras!

It doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense to me to still have the meet and greet separate in the top level VIP package when this tour was specifically made for the most committed fans. Like with that in mind, if these VIP packages cost as much as they did last tour, it’s pretty messed up.

One of the leaked dates showed a $279.00 price tag for the Meet and Greet package.

I feel like the VIP stuff wasn’t fully thought about this tour.

“Let’s do a tour, just for the most committed fans, in the smallest venues, in the more obscure cities, with no costumes or props or video screens or any other theatrics. But also let’s still charge $300 for decent seats and the opportunity to meet Al.”

Just...blurgh.

Interestingly enough, the VIP is actually $10 more than it was last tour, which seems a bit odd.

What a load of bologna. I love Al, but I’ve met him a few times already and don’t really need to again, and I still have all the junk they gave us on the Mandatory Fun tour collecting dust somewhere, but I really want to sit close to the front again, so the only way to accomplish this is to shell out $300 after fees? Give me a break.
