What the fuck?
from heartagram.com
"On 9/4, HIM will be announcing new shows in the US and Canada, and on that day, you can get tickets before anyone else, plus pre-order Venus Doom and get one-month membership to the new HIM Club! Stay tuned for more info."
Ok, so give me barely a week's notice that I gotta set money aside for concert tickets on top of all the money I'm giving you in the next month for all 8 versions of Venus Doom and the Kiss of Dawn singles? What's this membership crap? What are we getting out of it? Why does heartagram have to be so damn cryptic all the time?! Just show us up front all the details. Grrr.
-
woah, this shit is crazy it came outta nowhere! But great workin on the post!
-
ahh you beat me to it by like nothign! i was about to post about this =)
-
Wonder who is going to be touring with them....hopefully someone good un-like---Finch haha that was a joke
-
do we really have to buy anooooother version of Venus Doom if we wanna get these concert tickets earlier than everyone else!!!!!!
this is bullshit
-
hold on, we have to buy a version of Venus Doom in order to get the tickets??? I thought it was for ppl that are part ofthe street team or w.e....we actually have to buy it to get tickets early?? Thats fuckin bullshit

This is an excerpt from heartagram.com:
On 9/4, HIM will be announcing new shows in the US and Canada, and on that day, you can get tickets before anyone else, plus pre-order Venus Doom and get a free one-month membership to the new HIM club! If you don't want to take part of this, or have already pre-ordered the album, you can get tickets by themselves on Thursday the 6th! The shows are general admission, so you won?t miss out by getting them then. And make sure you blah blah blahhhh!!!!
-
Oh shit, all general admission shows? Fuckin' kick ass! I love it when they play in smaller venues!
-
none of that "i pay more, im closer" bullshit...
the most hardcore fan who will sit out there for hours, they are the one who will be closest...
thats the way it should always be
-
exactly who cares about pre-ordering the album..when tickets go on sale, get em, go way ahead of time before the show and see them GREAT!
-
if the show starts at 7pm, im going at 7am ;D
-
haha 7 am, thats the deal dude....thats wut u have to do these days if u wana get close
-
really, i just have read it from heartagram site, and i cannot understand
"plus order a copy of the regular edition of venus doom and you will get"
well i think i dont like what i understand, so i've already spend a lot of money in the special limited edition, and they still want we order the regular edition to get the one month mermbership to the club, probably they will send the code next to the album, and after one month you will have to pay again, if you like
incredible they want to squash us as oranges
what kind of news secction they have? from 6 news that you can see on the front page without scrolling, 5 are money-making.
really incredible
and this is not all, but if you search on german amazon or any other german shop, you will find that sonybmg/gun is releasing a double cd that includes razorblade romance and deep shadows albums, i dont know how it looks but the release its just 10 days or less before than Venus doom
i like to collect and have HIM stuff, but i'm not RICH
-
i think this fan club idea is not gonna be a good idea either...
come one, don't force ppl into paying just because some young HIM fans want to be the biggest fan...
WB really has them by the balls...
i hope this fan club thing doesnt work out cuz i dont wanna join, and i know im retarded enough to join something i dont wanna pay for... >:(
-
I don't like that idea too...
There are so many clubs right now...
-
I droppd close to seventy bucks on my limited VD version? Where are my perks?
-
WB, serious business.
-
This is crap!
-
I dont think it a good idea either. Wonder what they woud offer in this fan club?
-
The whole thing is a bullshit...
-
Fuck that. What does the club have to offer besides a new group of assholes? Special XKLUSIF 30 second interviews that will end up on youtube anyway? First stab at not-hard-to-come-by tickets? More cryptic messages that sound promising but in the end amount to nothing? More contests that sound somewhat promising, but we never really hear about the winners?
-
qft
wow!! what a deep reply!
what the shit that means?
-
quoted for truth - haha, sorry

This is really fucking stupid. I'm fed up of Warner milking the fans for every last penny. It just seems to be one money making scheme after another >:(

Its business =\
-
Anybody else see a correlation between HIM's tour with Metallica and the new money milking schemes?
Maybe Lars sat down with our boys and made them a business plan...
Lars: (With stupid accent) "So yeah, Vial (Ville), Warners should make you guys a fan club, where you can charge a monthly fee. It costs little to run, but it brings in truck loads of money. That's what we, in the biz, like to call profit. It's almost like the fans are buying an Ireland-only Ultra Deluxe Luxory feather bound edition of your new album Dark Doom, Venus Light, whatever you call it, every month!"
Sorry, that was stupid. I'm bored.

Vial... ;D ;D ;D Venus Light.... ;D Ultra Deluxe Luxory feather bound edition of your new album ... ;D
(Sorry, it's a smiling post ;D)

The ultimate package is just a ticket before anyone else can get one, a CD, 1 month membership to the club, the ability to listen to the full album before it's released...nothing that huge. Not worth it.

So listening to Venus Doom before it comes out isn't worth the price to pre-order it? It's only $14 to pre-order and get the one month membership.
-
im over this US tour already...you guys just had 23 odd shows haha
-
But we're also a few years late getting HIM. We gotta play catch-up!
-
I will be severely disgusted if the only way to preview the album is to join this fan club. That's kind of like shitting on the dicks of all of those people who payed $50 for the album already...
-
Special and limited edition both will cost me 102 $
-
Since tickets are about $30, will the overall price for doing thisfanclub crap be $44??? or is the $44 for the fan club and ticket then the cd will be added onto the price to make it around $60
-

It doesn't seem very fair. You're essentially paying to hear something you've already bought.
-
When u sign up for all this, and after the free month are they going to keep charging you for the club????
-
But it also says "get a permanent 10% off all merch"so you can't get a that deal if you only join for a month. Maybe there will be a place to say that u only sign up for a month instead a year???? Im so confused but o well i will check and see.???
-
I'd say that after the free month you can buy the 25 $ year renewal.
-
I never really thought of that, great idea! It wouldn't really make sense to keep charging you, well atleast I would be pist off. I never joined a "club" before so I wouldn't know.
-
It's a trial month. Anyway, it should be for all who pre-ordered any of the versions of the product they are selling. With an activation code or something like that inside the package.
-
Hold on, any of the versions??? If i already pre-ordered the regular cd (no limited edition oranything) and got e-mailed the activation code for the pre-sale, do I have to go through all that HIM club stuff, would i be able just to get tickets???
-
Davidson, i said it should not that it was. :)
-
sorry....im so tired I never get up this early for anything, i don't even know why im up to tell u the truth, but thanks for the help!~
-
i think this thing is dumb.
-
Hey I got an e-mail with a code for one-month membership. All I have to do is pimp it out, haha. :)
Apparently they sent them out to a bunch of webmasters.
-
When will the people who pre-ordered tickets get the codefor the membership via email from ticketmaster
-
I don't know, they said tomorrow it opens, so I assume tonight?
-
I assumed either tongiht or 2morrow sometime ....
-
Paying for a forum would suck...
-
that would suck, of all the forums I have found on HIM thesacrament is the best. It doesn't look like some trashy HIM forum from the middle of bumfuck, it has really good info on it, i come here for everything so i wanna say thanks to the ppl that run this shit!

Jay's going to be wanking off to that comment for ages.
-

I only wank off to your voice, sweetheart. That's why I save all of your xbox live messages...
-
lol some funny stuf...
-
Has anybody been able to register in the club?
-
I registered for the club, but it's telling my my code for the CD has already been redeemed! This pisses me off... I better get my CD.
-
YOU AND ME BOTH BROTHER!!!!!! I entered the code and it is giving me shit on how it's not active so I sent them 2 e-mails...I better get my cd I spent $60 on tickets, the cd, and the one month membership... i fuckin pist!
-
I did manage to register but haven't been able to get back on the site since.I Just keep getting the "this page cannot be displayed" thingy.
-
I just signed up for the site, it's going slower than shit. It's taking forever just to validate my account.
-
Something is wrong with this stuff. I mean we cannot register and get our VENUS DOOM cd and everything, I dont want my $60 going to a waste!
-
im sure it will all be fine - their just having some issues. Try in the morning =)
-
Exclusive to the HIM Club, Wings of a Butterfly live in Detroit haha the HIM segments are pretty cool though. First time I've ever heard Gas speak.
-
I can't get them to work. They all say URL not found. :(
-
the videos work for me, so does the board, but not the code to redeem for the v.d. cd. ???
i want my cd! and my concert ticket- it'll be my first HIM show.
maybe it'll be fixed tomorrow????? :-\
-
You will get the tickets no matter what because the tickets were with ticketmaster. After you pre-ordered them you got a reciept. The only problem is that the site is going slow and the codes will not work
-
they sent me a new code for redeeming my v.d. cd and the fan club freebie. :) yah!
and i've never used ticketmaster before, so i wasn't too sure how it worked, ;D
-
How do i access the club stuff? i logged in and it says fanclub member, but i dont see anything exclusive, i dont think i clicking in the right section
-
the club is such a ripoff. the free trial doesn't really give you anything anyway. just another way for the record co. to make more money.
-
Club sucks, I only did the pre-order thing so i could get my tickets, they are in my room as we speak and they look amazing! Philly bound!
-
yeah, i should have just waited for the public onsale since i already preordered all 3 versioins of the album before hand
-
Got a Email from Heartagram about club
Don’t miss this— we’ll be posting new clips constantly in the club-member-only section of the site. First up, more audio and video clips from the Detroit show filmed during the Dark Light tour. Plus there will be more contests to win cool prizes, like autographed CD booklets. The very same booklets that Burton is seen signing in the exclusive video section of the club.
Next will be the exclusive fan club premiere of a set of short film collaborations between Ville and Stefan Lindfors, who directed the Funeral of Hearts video. These films will not be see by the public outside the fan club until the CD/DVD release in 2008! Don’t miss these unique films!
-
yeah exclusive fan club Funeral of Hearts vido. 3 versioins album look amazing ????
