EX-NINE INCH NAILS ROCKER OFFERS FANS BIZARRE 'MEET-AND-GREET' DEALS

Former NINE INCH NAILS drummer JOSH FREESE is bidding to cash in on his time in the band - by offering fans the chance to pay to hang out with him.

Freese, who quit the group late last year (08) to spend more time with his family, has created 11 bizarre meet-and-greet packages ranging in price from $7 to $75,000 ($5 to $53,000).

For $7 fans get a digital download of his new solo album Since 1972; for $50 they get the album, a T-shirt and a five-minute phone call from Freese; and $500 (GBP350) buys the lucky fan a dinner date with the star.

Freese will wash the car or clean the laundry of anyone willing to hand over $1,000 (GBP700); and a $10,000 (GBP7,000) contribution lands a double date; a day at Disneyland and Freese's Volvo car.

For $75,000 Freese will write a five song EP about the bidders life, work as their personal assistant for a month; and invite them to "take 'shrooms (magic mushrooms) and cruise Hollywood in Danny (Carey) from (rock band) Tool's Lamborghini".

Fans with deep pockets can check out the deals in full on Freese's website.
