I never got my promised fan cap. What are the chances I will ever get the "Former Fan" cap?
You mean the ones that say "No Longer a Pandereable Money-Throwing Sucker"?

Yeah, that one,JFD! But as your former President once said: "Fool me once; shame on you: fool me twice... (shame on me)".
If you don't like it anymore just go quietly no one will ever notice.Quote

Is there a process involved? Do you have to sell or give your records and memorabilia to charity? Is there a badge you hand in? Is having to declare that one is now a former fan a byproduct of having the Stones a way of life and extremely important to one's life and because the band has let them down they must forfeit any relations with the band? Do former fans deny the band's existence? Do you have to stop listening to their music?
How exactly does it work?

You could see if you could sell it on E-Bay. Better yet, why don't we just trade - I have just rediscovered my fandom of the Stones after many years of not caring. I used to be a big fan of REM, not so much anymore. So,I'll take your Stones fan membership and you can have my REM, if you want it.

I don't see what the big deal is. I've had a love/hate thing with them since Licks. Before that I was HARD into them from '89 to '01. Then I just saw to many cracks in the porcelin. I began to truly understand that they're not even close to a real band anymore - despite what their nauseatiningly self-stroking PR spinners say.
Another album, tour, 2nd quadruple DVD set, joke of a movie (fake audience girls) and more re-packs and re-releases that would make Gene Simmons blush...
ADD THAT to the heartbreak of Keith's playing (or lackthereof), I can't do it anymore.

For $95 the Stones will officially "de-certify you as a fan.
Yeah $95 or multiple Stones fans can get the group-rate of $50 per fan.
For that price I understand they'll even give you the 'former fan' ball cap and poster.

I understand the Stones have a great stage gimmick for the next big tour: At the encore, all the seats in the arena will rise and turn completely upside down, therefore making sure any remaining money in the fans' pockets will be recovered.

I don't have a former President. I'm Canadian.

Won't be necessary. The fans will be throwing money at the stage realizing that they should have paid double what they were charged! It's the Greatest Show On Earth! Always has been, always will be!

You're the one throwing stones my way., you're the one with the implying lack of masculinity. Therefore, you're the troll with these issues, not me.
So, suck it.

Of course you have a right to your opinion, but is there anything they can do at this late stage to win you back? Please be specific.
