I received my premium ticket packages in the mail!  The t-shirts were awesome!  I loved the posters - they rocked!! I also received the laminates.  I have been to approximately 20 Mellencamp shows and have had some awesome tickets.  I have even had the side stage tickets, which are super!  This is my first time having a laminate.  I know that it states on the laminate that it does not provide backstage access; however, I was wondering, are fans ever allowed backstage or the opportunity to meet John or the band?  I have been a fan my entire life and I think that meeting John would be awesome! 

Also, I was wondering if anyone was planning to meet prior to the concert.  I am from the Terre Haute area so I will stay in Indy that weekend.  I think that it would be an excellent idea for fans to get together at a restaurant prior to the show!

As it does state the laminate is purely a collectible and has no function or access at a show.

Pretty much there is not any fan access to backstage these days, especially in these theaters which are pretty tiny backstage and lack gathering areas. If you hang around outside after the show you may have a chance to say hi to the band of even John.

Tony,
I have premium tickets to the Rockford show and haven't received an email yet about the packages. Thought I read somewhere items wouldn't go out until a month before the show...
Thanks!

Thanks!

Shows sold by ticketmaster get their premium package emails about 2 weeks or less after purchase.

Non ticketmaster shows (like rockford) get their package redemption emails about a month before the show after premium ticket sales conclude.

Thank you so much for the tip!! That is very helpful!  Do you know where the best place to wait is?  Did you wait around the bus area?
