i was going to put this in the revcraptor vs. BOTN thread but this is more of Band attitude vs. b.a.n.d. attitude. i just saw this on the Accept facebook page...
Just like to thank you guys for the wonderful gift we received. We truly have the best Fans....we love the pictures and Jeff did a great Job framing them....we hang them up in the studio so everytime we walk past we are reminded that we have fans out there that deserve the best we can give....thanks everyone again....gotta go back to shredding...Peter
remember when we did something similar and Tomcat made that happy birthday card for Udo with all of our pics on it and we didn't hear anything back and finally had to ask maikel if he'd received it? this is just another way that Accept outclasses u.d.o.
sad ain't it?

The clock is ticking... Yeah it is sad and one or two Accept member does (well, mainly Peter) visit the Accept forum. Here wasn't anyone from the band UDO or at least didn't identify oneself. And funny thing was that here it was also a one ex-UDO crew member here, i.e. Frank T. when he wasn't even a member of UDO clan anymore. Sad thing is also that there is not fan meetings around the gig like Accept has.

AccepT shows very touching attitude. Probably they needed more attention because Udo was a frontman.

And your post isn't in the guestbook, John By the way that gift to the ACCEPT guys was made by me It was Jeff's idea and I was proud he asked me to help him But I can't find the post on ACCEPT's FaceBook page... Peter posted something like that in the ACCEPT forum though

I think it was somewhere on the Accept fan site facebook... John's post was there in the morning...it is a pity they removed it. I just hope the band's management or what ever would be as efficient in marketing and promoting. ;D When something is done, it is done properly and fast.

yes it is very sad indeed, however my opinion is this, this new found popularity is all new to accept now after what about 10 years without. so i think they are putting in alot of effort into promotion and such. and yes i have met them and they are genuine and nice guys, so the whole VIP board member thing could have been just something that comes natural to them. i haven't met udo or the band yet but i assume they are very genuine and nice as well, but it seems the facebook/b.b./myspace and all that is just not what they are into. and maybe i'm totaly wrong...........
