Are those black Bandanas? Actually something I could use. I wear them under my helmet when riding. I had actually just assumed the stuff was never coming and had forgotten about it.

No it wasn't just me. They only shipped the first packs a bit over 2 weeks ago starting with those that paid in January. Like oscarmom I paid in February and got mine a couple of days ago.

Just got mine as well. 6 months later... I usually hate the tshirts but I got a black one that isn't that bad. I probably wouldn't have bought it but I will wear it riding or whatever. I also got the bandanna. I wrap those around my bald head under my helmet when I am riding as well. I know some people recieved a totally different shirt and a hand bag.. I am glad I got what I did..
Oh yeah and the pin too..

I quit AF1 about 12 years ago when I realized I could take my chances through Ticketmaster and get seats at shows that were just as good, if not better.
I remember customer service wasn't exactly exemplary back then, but holy s**t, 6 months later?! And you guys don't even seem pissed? What have they been doing for 6 months that caused this delay?!

I'm not pissed. It is so pathetic that it is almost comical in a way. I really could have cared less about the sway anyway. Although it did end up being cooler than I though. The tix I got through them sucked and I ended up exchanging them for for better seats by calling Live Nation. The only reason I keep the stupid membership is in hopes that they have some special fanclub access show someday.. I know, I am a fucking idiot.

Yeah, I don't get the anger directed at the AF1 folks in general. I understand how bad it got but the folks that handle the club now are responsive and answer the phone if you call. The club went through some pretty dark and rough years but the way they handled the ticket sales for this tour and the last North American tour was fair and was smooth. I may be seen as stupid to continue renewing but honestly on my budget it's not that big of a commitment and I've gotten a lot of out of the membership over the years. I'm willing to give this new company a fair shot.

I actually thought the way they handled the tickets was pathetic, but it is what it is. No matter what your seniority is, the only way you could get a good seat is if you wanted to by a stupid $300 Meet and Greet. That just doesn't seem right to me.

You would actually only probably be an idiot if you didn't realize what a sham it is to pay $300 for a meet and greet. And actually, that price seems pretty low compared to a few years ago - weren't they trying to charge upwards of $1200 at one point for M&G? I just don't get why anyone would pay any amount of money for that "privilege".

I just don't get why anyone would pay any amount of money for that "privilege". It was $300 for the Brad/Joey/Tom sweet spot package.. You don't actually "meet" them. I paid $250 to do that last year, it was a great experience and my seat was awesome. It just isn't the kind of think I would pay to do again. Been there done that... I just want a good seat. The meet and greet for Steven and Joe was the one for $1,200 and I am sure it was more than that this tour.

I didn't pay $300 and I didn't have to buy a Meet and Greet? I had great seats 4 rows off of the catwalk in Atlanta. It may have been different in the North East though.

I'm willing to give this new company a fair shot. This years excuse was the change of companies running AF1, what was last years and the year before? AF1 doesn't handle ticket sales, the promoter does, I guess you are in the US so that would be live nation. I've been a member of AF1 on and off since 1976 and I'm not going to renew ever again. If you like the new company, good for you. They have been polite to me, but no way in hell will I pay for AF1 again, and when I told them that, they said I was like anti Aerosmith, I said I like the band just fine, just not willing to get screwed by AF1 any more! Best bit, I am still a fully paid member and have NOT had anything from them, no email updates not even trying to sell me shit, since I said, no way would I ever pay them again, stupidity on their part, if they were nice I might have relented!

Yeah my show, All I got was tickets in the back half of the second tier, while there were hundreds of the $300 M&G seats sitting unsold in the first 3 sections..
