WIN A PAIR OF PASSES TO A POST CONCERT MEET AND GREET WITH JOHN MELLENCAMP
John Mellencamp has provided Club Cherry Bomb with 2 post concert Meet and
Greet passes where a PAID fan club member, and their guest, will get to meet
John Mellencamp after each show on the Spring 2005 tour. Three days before
each show we will randomly pick a winner from the entries and contact them
with how to pick up their after show passes. To enter you must be a PAID fan
club member with tickets to the concert. You do NOT need to have bought your
tickets through the fan club to win. This contest will stay open until April
15, 2005. If you are attending multiple shows on the tour please list each
city you are attending in the box at the bottom of the entry form. We will
post winners names on the club website and email you. Be sure to watch your
email a few days before your show to see if you won!

FAN CLUB TICKET UPDATE
If you are attending a show and have problems with picking up your fan club
tickets at Will Call (if you bought BRONZE) the person to ask for is Julie
Duffy. She is the assistant tour manager and will have lists of who is
supposed to have tickets at each show. Please don't bother her unless you
have a real problem (tickets not there, not enough or something like that).
Don't ask her about seat upgrades, backstage passes or anything like that.

ALL SAVANNAH FAN CLUB TICKETS TO BE PLACED AT WILL CALL
Due to a complication with the local promoter and box office all fan club
tickets for the Savannah GA show (GOLD and BRONZE) will be picked up at the
Will Call window any time after 6:30pm on Wednesday, March 23, 2005. Expect
a short wait so please try to arrive early for the 8pm show.

You will need a photo ID with your name and address, look for a window at
the box office that says FAN CLUB WILL CALL. FanFire.com will refund the
shipping fee on the BRONZE tickets, GOLD tickets still require the shipping
fee for the T-Shirt. FanFire will also be in touch via email to confirm that
your tickets will be at Will Call the night of the show.

If your tickets are not there again ask for Julie Duffy (JM assistant tour
manager) she will know who is supposed to have tickets.

We apologize for the confusion and delay, this problem was out of our
control and all other BRONZE tickets on the tour will be mailed as planned.

PENSACOLA FL AND TALLAHASSEE FL TICKETS MAILED
BRONZE fan club tickets for the Pensacola FL and Tallahassee FL shows were
mailed out on Thursday, March 18, 2005. Look for them in the next few
working days via DHL. We expect them to ship the OK, KS and NE shows in the
next few working days. Watch this page for updates.

POSTCARD PROJECT
I am looking for volunteers who would be willing to help John's management
out with a project at the upcoming 16 spring tour shows. Universal/Island
Records are going to produce promotional postcards to promote the Definitive
Remasters series of Mellencamp re-releases. The other side of the card is
going to promote the summer Mellencamp tour and Club Cherry Bomb - The
Official John Mellencamp Fan Club! They will be similar to the cards that
were put out at the 2001 Cuttin' Heads shows.

What I am looking for is PAID Club Cherry Bomb member volunteers who will be
at these 16 shows who can place a post card on each seat in the venue. In
return for this help there will be a reward! I don't have the reward
completely worked out but for sure you will get some kind of a pass showing
you helped and you will be able to stay in the venue to watch sound check.
Please note John typically is not at sound check but the entire band is. I
hope to provide a few other rewards as well. For more information about the
POSTCARD PROJECT and info on how to sign up visit the Club News page once
logged in.
We still need more helpers to sign up for Fargo, Rapid City, Pensacola, St.
Paul and Wichita. If you are interested please sign up for any of the shows
you are attending!
