    soooo I've come to the realisation that we are not going to hear any announcement for a while, right?

    maybe tomorrow (thursday) NZ time??

    i had calculated for the midnight 7 July PT time, but then read posts and clarified the meaning that we had to have current membership at that time

    possibly even Friday (feel compelled to put NZ time again, even tho don't need to in a thread named New Zealand)

    does anyone know if the '98 concerts had 10c tix? or how many current 10c members there would be here?

    Haere mai, e hoa ma, ki a Aotearoa...

    Previous tours in 95 & 98 were both General Admission and the mad dash from the gate (three out of three front row for me 8-) ).

    I have no idea how many Kiwi Fan Club members there are - anyone take a stab? Sure would be nice to have the best FC tix reserved for locals but sounds like that is unlikely. Hopefully the recession will keep international fans away!! No offence to them as longas they are behind us Kiwis :mrgreen:

    Annoucement sometime either side of midnight NZ time??

    as much as i would LOVE to catch some shows in oz and kiwiland :D....very, very doubtful, tho i was truly hoping 'next time'...as i sooo wanted to go to the oz shows in what, 06? beyond that, even during a good economy it is still quite the trip so i am sure you'd still always get GREAT seats, probably better than almost anywhere else, no matter your 10c #s!


    that said, i truly HOPE you GET SHOWS! you sooooo deserve em! 8-)
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    Same about the '95 concert - you were'nt the guy who tried in vain to convince me to get the hell out of the mosh pit were ya?! It was so easy to get to the front in those days...

    As for kiwi fan clubbers, I read in another thread an estimate of 70, so not many relatively speaking. For some reason I don't believe they will offer us the tickets first, or the best tickets. Hope I'm wrong tho! I wonder who the tickets will be sold through? will we get presales?

    So not today, tomorrow is the new word on the announcement. Lord only knows who's tomorrow that actually is, probably Friday for us, right?? I've never checked the internet so much in my life!!

    And wonder who the opening act will be? (notice how I'm acting like they are definitely coming here now, quite dangerous really as will be MAD disappointed if they only do Aus). In '95 it was our own, terrible Dead Flowers and we booed them off the stage. They were really bad tho. Would it be another kiwi band? or would they bring someone?

    thanks for helping with the wait everyone by answering some of my mad questions. gotta keep busy waiting for announcement somehow!

    quietly hopeful. what about PJ vinyl any other kiwi vinyl collectors round here?

    This time tomorrow we should know all going well. I don't think Vector would get filled twice so if its two shows then maybe Wellington too?
    Vinyl collector here too - how's your collection looking?

    I have all 8 studio albums on vinyl - I always wondered every time I ordered them (right from 10) if anyone else in NZ was doing the same!! I'm glad I did it now, although it must be said I'm no "collector", I play all my records and play em loud, hate the idea of them sitting around unplayed. I nearly scored live on 2 legs for $60 but the record got stolen before it got to me ( and after I"d paid for it) sigh. so I'm always on the look out for any other albums that I don't have, as are a lot of people I imagine! I also have I got ID and Long Road 7 inch, two of my fave tracks so had to get it. it quite surprises me how often PJ vinyl pops up round here

    I do know where there is a 10, vs and vitalogy up for grabs round here if any kiwis need any of those vinyls? not badly priced either I don't think (but you may disagree). PM me if interested and I can put ya on the trail

    I'm a vinyl collector. I have all the albums, some singles (all fanclub "except" 91,92,93 :D plus others). I don't really want to get all the singles but I'd love to get the early fanclub ones, the basketball Ten but too much!

    What about posters? I have the 98 framed with my ticket but again the 95 one costs too much! I never even saw it at the show, but then if I had it wouldn't be in mint condition now anyway Im sure. I missed my bus after that show and had to walk home to Howick!

    As far as number of 10C members in NZ goes, according to Rumor Pit #58 - Sep 23, 2004: 68 (also Aussie 1000, Brazil 71, Argentina 12, Chile 18). Can't be that much higher than that now can it? Given there's so few here we should get pretty good seats. I've got 213xxx and I got 4th row in Adelaide and 8th Row in Melbourne is 06 and there's 1000 members over there, a high proportion in Melbourne maybe? Hopefully not so many people will travell all the way here from overseas anyway. I can't imagine the worst fan club seats being much further back than 10th row here, but we'll see.

    I am so hoping the 10C let the kiwis get priority with seating. Call it a reward for patience......

    YEAAAA! I think I'm in shock - did you guys see that - it says NEW ZEALAND - it's real, actually real, they are going to come!!

    Can't remember last time I got this excited

    now some more WAITING aaaaargh I'm getting very good at waiting on this website

    But congratulations everyone! I'll be seeing ya there, hopefully up the front, and maybe this time I can be at the front of a PJ concert and not get injured...

    I'm thinking definitely Vector, is it seated all the way to the front or will the front be standing?

    let the speculation re-begin!! Kia ora everyone

    Great news alright! Vector can be seated or not but based on the US and Aussie arena shows it will be. The question is will they play anywhere else? Wonder if Liam will open?
