At least with the Buck Dharma site, you paid $150 but you got the wonderful
4 disc Archive, a t-shirt, a signed photo made out however you want, a
laminated VIP pass and access to the Subscriber Area 51 of his site
including the Area 51 message board.  This is worth the money alone - lots
of great pics and stories, as well as guitar tutorials from the man himself.
I haven't paid the $50 for the EB.net site as everything I've heard points
to this not being good value.  EB does come and chat on the site from time
to time and you do get advance info on gigs and stuff.  Still, I wait for
others to tell me what's happening.

That's probably worth $20.00 (I haven't seen the site logo though)

Full body shot, signed "Love to you"? : )

wow.

Now if it was one of those pens where it had a picture of him and when you
turned it upside down, his clothes came off.  'nuff said, eh?

A license to stalk!

Like, what Eric ate for lunch today?

Sorry about being such a smartass, but I'm with you.  Intriguing, but hey,
I got a wife, kid and dog to feed.  I don't blame Eric for trying to make
a buck though.  I'll keep buying the CD's, DVD's and paying to see the
shows when they come to town. I'd even by a shirt if it was really cool.
I'll buy more remastered CD's if they do them.  If they put out some
decent boots, I'd buy them.  No doubt I've gotten more than my moneys
worth from the band.

I love these guys, but I'm cheap.
