Fanclub membership - renewed! And lol, my account details weren't deleted after all when my membership lapsed. Now, when's the hideously disorganised fanclub presale going to be sprung upon us with insufficient warning? (this is so not an exaggeration)

*FLAIL*

I WANT ASIA DATES NOW. WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY PLAYING AT.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Unless they are going to go home in between, I'd say there are still dates to come. They're just completely fucking disorganised as always >:(

Good timing for me to renew my fanclub membership (I couldn't resist), the Aussie $ is pretty good against the US $.

[trumpeterofdoom.livejournal.com]

God I am so tempted to go over to Oz, except that I'm saving up for next year's Camp Sparkle. *weeps*

[isilya]

If you come to Melbourne, you're welcome to crash at my place!

[nafs]

The fanclub presale? Wasn't it on for like half an hour, three weeks ago? ;)

[fickwalker.livejournal.com]

The night I decide to go to bed early and this gets announced! *laughs* Oh boys, it's about time we had a crazy tour all over again. :)

Replied to your comment in my journal, if you're around during the day today, drop me a line on fickwalker at gmail dot com.

*claps* Yay tour!

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

Why oh why do they not give us more notice about ticket sales? Especially so close to Christmas.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I may take you up on that :D

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

NOTHING WOULD SURPRISE ME.

Don't know if you care about AI at all, but did you see that Jian Ghomeshi is interviewing Adam Lambert?

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Because they are deeply stupid.

Are you thinking of Sydney + Melbourne? :D

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

You made it happen! :D

[fickwalker.livejournal.com]

LOL, hardly! :)

[fickwalker.livejournal.com]

Ticketmaster is sellling for the Sydney show. Vorgin presale starts tomorrow, tix are $98.90.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

They have updated in the last hour I see :)

Three different presales? I'm with Virgin mobile, I have no idea how I get a password for their presales...

According to someone on the Aussie list, the fanclub is doing a presale, god only knows when.

[fickwalker.livejournal.com]

I see that they're still as disorganised as ever. :) Nice to know some things never change.

Guess we gotta figure out who's buying what when.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

First known presale is tomorrow for Sydney, fanclub presale could happen at any moment (there was no warning for the NZ presale apparently).

Am conferring with fickwalker about ticket purchases.

I think that's where the Virgin presale info will come from, but I've logged in and can't find anything about BSB.

At the moment, I think indybrat and I are both going to Melbourne, not sure yet if she's coming to Sydney.

[notyourfriend.livejournal.com]

Eep, I hope I can get decent seats. :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Ugh, ticket stress >:(

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

I wish we had more time to make up our minds. I think at this point I'm thinking just Melbourne.

The annoying thing is that most likely closer to the time when I'm not as stressed I will probably wishing I'd decided to go to both.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It is such annoying timing!

If this helps decide either way, I had a look at flights, and with Virgin Blue, we can come up from Melb to Syd on the Saturday for $119, and I could go down on Friday and you could come back on Sunday for $65, so $184 for each of us for the return flight (it was the best deal I could find at the moment).

And, since the Sydney show isn't out in the middle of bugfuck nowhere, it'd be easier to see other people for dinner etc while you were up here, and you have somewhere to stay of course. If you do want to do Sydney, just let me know by morning, in case they do spring the presale on us tomorrow, it's a possibility :)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

If presale is happening tomorrow, do you want to try for Sydney (just me at this stage, I'll let you know if that changes) and I'll try for 4 tickets for Melbourne?

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

I'm going to just stick to Melbourne.

Are you going to try for fanclub sales and if it doesn't happen go for the ticketek presale on Tuesday? As I'm not a fanclub member I can't help out there but at this stage (and baring unforseen doctors appointment) I can help with getting tickets on the Tuesday.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm feeling guilty now, cause I just got fantastic seats for Sydney through the Virgin Mobile presale this morning. Hopefully we can get some great seats for Melbourne too through the fanclub sometime in the next few days, or yeah, might need you to try for Melbourne (I have an exam at the presale time on Tuesday!)

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I bought tickets for the Sydney show this morning. You are so going to stop talking to me now.

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

Huh. I'm with Virgin mobile. I was just looking at the site (members lounge) and it says the BSB pre sale starts at 2pm today.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I'm with Virgin Mobile too. They lie! I saw that update from Members Lounge twitter and lol'd, cause it was like an hour after the presale started at 9am. I guessed the password correctly on my second try.

Virgin and Ticketmaster haven't been communicating well ;)

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

I wonder if Virgin are only having the presale with ticketmaster, therefore only Perth and Sydney. There's nothing on ticketek about a Virgin presale for Melbourne.

Go you for trying early and guessing the password.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

The strange thing is that it's only the Sydney concert through Ticketmaster that has the Virgin presale, not even the Perth one.

So odd.

when I said I got fantastic Sydney tickets - front row, middle section. I'M GONNA TRY REALLY HARD TO GET GREAT MELBOURNE SEATS TOO!

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

They are awesome seats! (I am a little envious but I know I made the right decision about just going to Melbourne.) Who are you going with?

If I am awake at 2pm I will have a look and see if Virgin are doing a pre-sale for Melbourne. there's nothing on the ticketek site as yet.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

fickwalker and her partner K.

There is a Ticketek presale at noon for Melbourne, which you have to sign up for a passcode via SMS and it's got a $20 premium on the tickets. Not sure whether to bother trying, since we haven't even had the fanclub presale yet.

http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=BACKTIXA10

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

I don't think it's worth trying that presale. I have never had problems getting tickets in the normal pre-sales ie where they don't charge an extra $20 per ticket.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

Fanclub presale is tomorrow morning, so fickwalker and I will go for Melbourne tickets in that. If things get screwed up, there's always presale and main sale :)

[indybrat.livejournal.com]

Hey will you look at that, they've given you what at least 12 hours notice. LoL.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

I know, it's BIZARRE.

I'm looking at flights, since the prices now are probably as good as I'll be able to get.

Coming down will be probably be VB flight out of Sydney at 10:15 or 11:15.

Coming back - hmmm, I can save $30 and get Qantas flight at 10am (has less than 5 seats at that price), or get VB at 11:15 or 12:15.

Decisions, decisions...

[nafs]

I don't so much, but you have reminded me I need to subscribe to Qtv on youtube for all my Jian needs *g* When's the interview? I'll keep an eye out.

[erilyn.livejournal.com]

It was on Thursday, it's up on their website now - http://www.cbc.ca/q/

I'm trying to figure out if its one I've already downloaded...

You were just the first person I thought of when I saw who the interviewer was ;)

[nafs]

haven't a clue why you'd think of little old me ;)
