Although, it could be as simple as JM just enjoys getting into a good party atmosphere though. On stage he appears to really love himself up somewhat and maybe relishes in appearing to audiences. Bigger audiences tend to mean money split easier between attendees ticket fee I would imagine.

Perhaps DB could just be the quieter type, he appeared quite reserved at the FP signing (not that you would have had much socialising time there) This maybe why the audience capacity is smaller and therefore the prices are higher.

---

I blame his management team because it is them who dictate what should be charged.

Whist, I suspect you are right. There was another actor's management who supposedly thought he was worth more after he appeared in something. But their arrogance in trying to demand a higher fee purely meant other guests for an event where chosen over them.

There is a huge market for buffy and angel out there and although thousands of people have been to conventions before there are still newbies wanting to see their favourite star.

Somehow, if people are desperate to go, they will find the money for an event like this. All I hope is they enjoy their days as it will be rare to have DB over. And just don't be tempted to overspend your budgets

5 more guests have been announced for this:

nicholas brendon
kristine sutherland
armin shimmerman
the twins from homecoming

its starting to look better now:

That's not on their website yet? So where have the updates come from?

I read this on the S3 message boards - basically someone has said they had rung Jealous Events and were told who the extra guests were. I take it as speculation at this point until Jealous make an official announcement.

Be interesting if its true though as I've heard through interviews etc that Nick and David don't get on

The story (unconfirmed, but heard from people I personally believe know the facts) is that David Boreanaz is charging $250,000 (plus airfare) to do the Brighton show.

I heard this pretty much from the horse's mouth myself. Fact is - it wasn't DB's management that set this ridiculous fee - his asking price at the time was far lower - the event organisers tabled this offer to ensure that this was the only event he'd be attending this year. Frankly they've robbed themselves - and the fans - as they probably could have gone much lower and still sealed the deal.
I for one won't be going. I was interested until I saw the prices. Can you imagine how many people are going to be there? One would speculate that you'd have to have a large ticket allocation even at these prices to cover the fee, plus all the expenses.

Still for £599 you can more of less have access all areas

They are selling 10 of these PER day only (fyi Saturday and Sunday have already sold)

Something else puzzles me - I could be wrong but looking at the schedule for each day there's one 90mins talk session and a 45mins question and answer session. That's not a lot in my book for a minimum of £49 a seat

Amber Benson has been announced as another guest

Just a quick note for anyone going to this, to tell you that the message boards for this event seem to now be open

Or maybe not

Can anyone access these today?

Yes I can They have re-done their boards yet again...... You'll find the new boards here

Reminds self not to post any factual-type responses again

Can someone let me know when they find the board terms & conditions printed on there.

Ooh nope - they're up now. You can find them Here

OK so I won a pair of tickets for this and now the dilema starts. I can't afford much in the way of extras, so it'll be the bronze seating ticket win for me only

But who else is going on the Saturday (I opted for Saturday tickets so that hubby could drive).

Where are the cheapest places to stay? I was hoping to find a cheap caravan for the weekend, but it appears Brighton is a little posh for that sort of thing

Although anyone who can collect me through Cambs, then you are welcome to negotiate on the spare ticket for the price of a lift and sorting out a room share.

Hey Samphirette,

Try totalstay.com, for somewhere to stay. They were really helpful for me and now I have a place to stay for the Sat Event too.

I agree with the views on this thread. Unfortunately for me I was a complete event/convention newbie when I booked my tickets and have consequently paid for a gold seat! What is annoying is that you can't pre-pay for your auto/photo and you have to queue from goodness knows what time in the morning clutching your £50 (in cash) in full view of goodness knows who! Somewhat worrying!

Less than a week to go - is anyone else going to this at all?

Well as nobody else shows any interest in going I probably won't be as I have nobody to split travel costs etc with.
