IL DIVO : Reality Check

I got this too....
The heading itself...'Become an Il Divo 'Diva'.....was enough to make me laugh... line myself up with those nut jobs... I don't feckin' think so...
So what do they get...
Preferential treatment over the ordinary fan for an extra 30 Euro....so you have to pay Il Divo/Sony BMG/ Greedy ba**ard Cowell for making a F**king eejit out of you.... and the dim wits will pay it....for what... remeber this 30 Euro is on top of the thousands they already part with traveling the world for a thrill in their knickers and a pat on the head...look at all the ass h*l*s who traveled here in August... WTF is wrong with these women....grown women paying to join a fan club...(isn't that what teenagers do ) paying to be done out of even more money....paying to be called 'A Diva' ......Jaysus they just don't get it do they..they have 'Gullible Gobshyte' written all over them...what these fellas see sitting in the front rows are a bunch of text book desperate stupid air head females gagging for 'it' and that's all it boils down to..sexual fantasy... any buisness man worth his salt can see there's money to be made off the backs of these idiots and will come up with a way to do it...
What Il Divo sees in the front rows are not the 'truest of fans'.... just the dimmest of dimwits'..... and don't they know it....
Personally the last thing I'd want to become is a 'Diva'... I think we'd be too smart and intelligent to qualify...

If people don't like what transpires on this forum/website (like this new membership for example), why hang around griping and complaining, making most of the others roll their eyes and shake their heads?

Don't like the way things are handled? The answer is simple, don't sign up for the fan club. Yeah, you have a right to say what's on your mind, just like I'm doing here. But, what gives anyone the right to try and spoil everyone else's time while they try to enjoy the forum? Misery loves company.

I quote something I just read on Twitter: 'Imagine if a new ID fan went to the ID site and read all the whining.'

Janey has explained things very well I think. And I don't believe all the whining in the world is gonna change the way things are handled. IL DIVO is a business.

So I would say... buck up, suck it up, and step up to the plate with the BIG GIRLS...please.

Sandra

Who does she think she is ....f**king mad thing...

Seems someone still has her MOD drawers on and they are in a kinx

I am so sad not to have received an email from Il divo!!!! How ever was I missed?

Well ladies- seems the guys are gearing up full force again- at least the price is cheaper this time, wasn't it $50 last time?

Gotta run- gotta work today-

Hugs!!


Ree

OK, so I got this e-mail too! But, DUH, am I not understanding it correctly. Is it just for the tour, not like the other fee for "platium" membership. Is this on top of that???? I converted mine to US dollars and it is $39.99. Now, is the tour already planned, I mean how do people know if they will even be performing at a place that they can get to. And for people like me, who aren't willing to travel around the world. I guess I just don't get the reason for it. I'm sure the cost of the tickets alone will be outrageous, so why this deal? And does this mean that if I want to go to a concert, I won't be eligible for advanced tickets? Well, call me crazy....(I heard that! ) but I just don't get it! And you know what........

Hey, never mind my last post, this is much more important. I just noticed that I'm not a "guest" anymore!
Thanks guys!!!!!

See, it's the little things that are special!

hello Sidney!

I'm glad you noticed that... it's changed since a couple of weeks now!

Hey thanks, Bridge!
Goes to show how observant I am! Or rather how observant (I'm not).

new ID fans...where? in the north pole??
thank you the funny mood, anyway!

Hi everyone out there

It's great to be back on line again. Couldn't remember how to log in. How stupid is that. I have really enjoyed reading all your comments. Can't agree more. I've foolishly been signing into the site that shall remain nameless for years but think it's finally time to come to my senses and stay here with you guys. You are all so right about those stupid women who follow the guys around like their lives depend on it. Just cant get over the antics of the fools who were sitting beside me at the concerts. I did get front row seats but don't worry, I'm NOT fanatical, just happened to get them when I got online. Was always curious to see if I could get the coveted row for a change.

I do love the music and even the stupid predictable ways the guys act on stage, all part of the act I suppose. At one stage I nearly got an elbow in the face from some yolk trying to take pics of Seb and Carols and as for the screams, thought I'd go home deaf. I didn't think the shows were up to the standard of the previous ones. Maybe I'm getting bored with it all too but I'll still listen to the music. Will probably buy the CD and go to the next concert(even though I work for the HSE) and will be getting another pay cut just before Christmas!!!!

You did warn me to stay away from certain members of the ID club and after meeting them in the Ramada hotel, I will. Just met them by chance and as soon as they found out I was Irish they weren't as friendly. No loss there.

I tried to open an account to become a so called "ID Diva" or whatever it is. Wouldn't accept my email address even though I also tried using my work one!!! Feels as if they don't want any Irish fans having the chance of getting a "Melt and Greet". I was a platinum member, never got my so called "welcome gift" so don't think I'll bother anymore.

Well, I'll stop rambling on for now though I could go on and on.
Once again, great to be here and hope to hear from ye all soon.
Sandra

Wondered where you been hiding Sandra

Well, sorry to hear you were disapointed with the show, at least here you won't be tarred and feathered for daring to say so, it won't do the guys any harm to be told the truth for once.

As to the delusionals diva's well, I hate to admit your comments come as no surprise to me and doubt they will to anyone else on here, don't let it get to you though, they so not worth it

Not intending personally, to sign up to be a genuine 'Diva' what that all about it just another way to make the psycho's part with their money and no matter how much they do shell out, just remember, it makes them in no way superior to those of us who are more sensible and don't throw money at Il Divo willy nilly, much rather be a sane, normal fan

Sandra--

Sorry to hear that you had a brush with the crazy old gal groupies of il divo- seems no matter the age, the hormones still are in high range when it comes to that band and as you see, prejudice runs deep among the "divas"

Glad to see you hanging out with us- we will certainly not sugar coat things here- actually we can be a bit caustic if need be no arse kissing here I promise

Hiya Loki!!


Ree

So glad I managed to get in here for I'm laughing my arse off Its a very quick in and out unfortunately (as Carlos would say ) for Im in my Mums. House renovations should be finished in a week and Casa Rebel should be back to normal ..... as "normal" as we can be, anyway

Sandra.... Here's to you and your post You have restored my faith in the celtic character, hearing your independant "take" on what you have the misfortune to sit amongst. As for the bitches who gave you attitude when they discovered your nationality? Thats how scummy they are and shows their mindset when they have the audacity to insult the people of the country they, themselves, are "guests" in! As Loki always says "You can roll it, you can stuff it but you can't educate pork"

Hi again everyone!!

Had a horrible day in my mind boggingly boring job so just had to sign in to cheer myself up. Working in a hospital aint all it's cracked up to be!!! It was great to hear from so many of you, thanks so much I used to log onto "YOU KNOW WHERE" to get in touch with other Divas but never had any luck. What a waste of time and energy that was. That is so in the past now. HOW I'LL MISS IT, NOT!!!! Here with you guys is certainly the place to be.

How dare those dried up post menopausal old hags treat us like that and make all those nasty comments. In the good ol 80s, best decade ever , never heard of any type of fans going on like that. What did the poor ol guys do to deserve such demented followers as them? Still, they made them four very rich men!!!! As they walked off the stage on Saturday night, after the usual post concert demented frenzy, I noticed Urs turning to Carlos, saying something then the two of them practically falling up the stairs laughing!!! If only those ancient lunatics knew what they were saying about them, they'd drown themselves in their cocoas!!!

Thanks again guys!!!! It's great to know there are great normal fans out there

Hellooooo Loki hows you? also enjoying a quiet evening i hope I worked a little tonight during a hockey game...first time...not too bad...Funny sport that is

Oh and the lenses....If those are pro. cams (like every good diva/nutjob has) i can confiscate them,since its forbidden to use professional cameras during any kind of concerts in most European concert venues.....

Hellooooo Ladies..
Sandra you are very welcome here to play with us... there are lots of normal fans I'm sure,,,aswe've said before these headcase fanatics didn't buy the millions af albums these guys have sold....millions of front row seats at concerts perhaps but not milions of albums....we are the Anti-Divas here..representing the sane fan...and God knows ID need some sane fans to counter act these mad things....
I'm sorry to hear you didn't enjoy the shows here but these fruitcakes will always interfere with the enjoyment of people who just want a good night out....an elbow in the face is not what you had in mind I'm sure... they are pretty disgusting really... but I'm glad we didn't influence you and you gave the creeps the benefit of the doubt and met them and came to the same conclusion we did....a bunch of skanks...
So they came here to our country and because you are Irish gave you the 'cold shoulder'....horrible b*t**es...a good ol' smack in the mouth accompanied by a swift kick up the twiddle wouldn't go astray there for some of them arrogant evil b**tards.... Did you see the 'Slug/Gemini' on your travels...now there's one I'd like a few minutes in a room with ....the rest of you could distract her 2 'bodygaurds/sons' with alcohol... while I have a word in her ear.. she's wise though to bring protecton and well she knows it....an obnoxious pig like her needs to be wary....
Annnnyway...
So the tour dates have been announced...2 shows here....1 in Dublin and 1 in Belfast....i think there areabout 10 around the UK....so lets see which mad bastards turn up here despite having a huge amount of shows in their own country...or maybe for once these feckers may stay in their own country and leave our shows here alone....
10 shows in the UK.... I guess these guys know were the bulk of the fanatics live....hope the girlies have their purses ready to be emptied in the name of being a 'DIVA'... aren't we glad we have something between our ears other than a vacuum..... no Divas here....maybe ID can take a bit of time and learn a few more names to thrill the chickies in the front rows and keep them coming back for more......Name and Shame .....they probably have to stop themselves from saying....'there you are again....you mad thing... leave them to it says I......these stalkers deserve to be royaly 'ripped off' and who better to do it than ID,Sony BMG and Cowell...isn't that their jobs...To recognise fools and extort every penny they can from them...pulling them deeper and deeper into their fantasy....and making 'them' pay for their own stupidity.....how clever are these guys and their management ....manipulation and exploitation is the name of the game......but you have to be smart to see that...... definitley no 'Divas' here....
Daria....bring a big sack with you to work that night...it should be fun seperating the Divas from their cameras... .....would you like some help...
I'm off to pick out paint for my kitchen and hallway.... bet this is one of many trips while I chop and change my mind B-O-R-I-N-G....
See yews later...

Seems the ole girls are gearing up to spend all that hard earned cash on tickets-

whatdayamean I can only buy 4 tickets to each show!!! That is how I afford to buy all those great seats by buying up a bunch of tickets and selling them later- that gives me pocket money!!!

Tickets!! Tickets anyone-- would you like VIP for 250 Euro or regular commoner seating for 60 Euro so does the VIP come with Meet and greet??? Personally, to pay that much, I would rather have a lap dance from my chosen divo than to stand there with a shit eating grin on my face, while they stand there looking bored at least for a lap dance they would have to move LORDHAVEMERCY-- it is too early for me!!

AHAHA just got the same mental pic!!

Great minds think alike........Sadly

No Daria, that is so wrong, I can't imagine the Oors doing anything so, umm, well, words fail me

So, do I go to the bun fight in the CIA in Cardiff

If so, will I need to go to the stockroom and dig out my trusty kevlar full body suit for the occassion or shall I cast an invisibility/protection spell instead

Answers onna postcard to ..............................

Just read this on the ole OF--seems there is a special for one of the concerts- London perhaps



at 450GBP, this is the package Mark Butler, it includes a seat in the first 9 rows (not allocated at the time of purchase), sound check,Q & A, chance of photo, food and drink with the Guys. Can be booked direct from their website or contact them by phone

http://www.markbutler.co.uk/searchprocess.asp



That is over $700 USD! Ridiculous

so let me get this right..you pay that money and you show up for this 'special' package....and these guys know that you have spent all that money to be there for the 'privilage'......how feckin' mortifying... how desperate...how stupid.... I just feel sorry for them now... of course there are only 'certain 'fans' who'll do that...the likes of the Gummmini,Amber, her friend Van Lush,the Randy Rev.....to name but a few half wits...I hope someday they get the shag they are paying/ looking for... and once again ID laugh and smile allllllllll the way to the bank ....
£450 to make a fool of yourself in front of 4 men who couldn't give a rats arse who you are so long as you've paid the price...I'm very disappointed in these men of ID and how they take advantage of these numbskulls and their fantasy filled lives..it would answer them better to show some kind of awareness and discourage this kind of thing knowing that these idiotic females....(I refuse to call them women... ) are so caught up in their fantasy that they have checked out of reality.... How bad must their lives be if a musical group means so much to them..... but let them get on with it... in the 'sisterhood' they are the norm to the rest of us they are pathetic.... it takes all sorts as they say....

Now, dear friends, I am on the horns of the proverbial, you see, my problem is this:

Do I fork out on a milk and greet to meet the guys up close and personal or, do I spend the money on a much needed new washing machine

Well, being as I gotta brain, it obvious the new washer wins hands down

I can't understand why ANYONE would fork out a small fortune just to be able to say they had a picture taken with (insert Divo of choice) next to them and the other guys, and waaaaay overpriced nibbles and plonk, the term plonker comes to mind, especially as some seem hell bent on doing so over and over and over and over and over and over...........

No, if I do manage to get to a show, it will be in, them home straight after, no going 'lurking' in certain hotels on the off chance of bumping into a Divo, got Biker Groves at home waiting, the real deal, so no fantasies required, ta very much, as Colleen would say 'GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR'

I agree- the real thing is always always better than the fantasy!!

Ah Loki- glad you didn't fork over your washer money for a waste of time- If the ID guys didn't look bored out of their minds with the photos- it may be a different story. Is it me, or do you see more happiness in the chance meeting photos of them meeting with the fans at the airport or where ever, versus the staged photo??? Especially Urs and David- seems they were their emotions a bit more on the sleeve- as for Carlos- the smile is always there-- unless the phone is to the ear!

Be bad ladies!!


Ree

Worry not, my friend, I was only joking,

While I don't mind paying to go to a concert, I ain't paying any money to be able to 'meet' anyone, least of all Il Divo, THEY should pay to meet ME, then count themselves lucky, if only because I would be honest with them, imagine that

I wouldn't feel comfortable wasting that amount of money for a few minutes and for what

Nah, this witchy 'lil' biker can think of plenty of better things to waste that money on
