We've tried to use a "something for your money" approach by asking people to buy back numbers of RVM - without significant success - some have kindly agreed to help via that route and they do get something in exchange. It seems however that the majority of non-members won't contribute anything. If the voluntary route doesn't work why should we fund everyone else?
As Caryl says £5.00 is a modest fee and I'd be quite prepared to have a reduced student / young persons rate of say £2.50, i think that's a really good idea and fair too.

Hi, Mike
Well I am not a younger person but I am a college student and my daughter is a college student and right now till be get our degree's we live on scholarshis, grants and loans and work part-time to attend college and to live on so what I am trying to say is money is tight. That in it's self is why I could not attend a Meat Loaf concert when he was here in the U.S because there was no money to attend a concert.
I would not mind paying a student's fee but any thing over that and I woud just not have the money even thought I love Meat I need to pay my bills and to feed my daughter first and foremost.
Just thought I would let you know my feelings and will understand if you go to an all members site and I have to bow out since I could not afford the $49.50 that it would cost for me to join. for here in the U.S.
But most important of all do what you have to, to make this a better place for Meat Loaf.
Love & Happiness
