Sounds like another great show. Just wondered if those of you that saw 6 shows feel a little bit guilty that some 10C members missed out on tickets and couldn't get public tickets. Tix went for as much as $500 on ebay, so it wasn't as if you could just go out and buy them. Good luck to you if you got to go to this many shows - obviously it is a sellers market - but there are real fans that missed out through no fault of their own. I was lucky enough to go to Melb 2 and have a kickass repo of the show. Its just that I know of quite a few people that wanted to go that couldn't. Maybe 10C could make an effort for once to fairly distribute the tickets. Nothing shits me more than trying to by tickets from the US from assholes that never had any intention to go to the shows. :evil:

In a way i feel a little guilty...but its more the fact that these bogans who know like betterman and or alive go to shows and yell out stupid shit when real fans miss out.... I helped a couple people get last minute tickets for a couple shows...but as it is there is always someone who is going to miss out regardless and there are always going to be scalpers....just the way the world works sometimes :(
I guess you're right, despite a very good crowd in Melbourne the bogan factor was still aparrent - as if Eddie cares what you call out, it's his show and I'm sure the setlist would not change no matter what the audience ask for. I guess I'm more disappointed with 10C than any thing else, real fans miss out and dickheads get in. At Melb 2 I saw a kid about 10 years old with his dad playing his DS most of the way through the show. I'm sure his ticket could have been better used. I've been a 10 C member for 15 years and missed out on the pre sale - that shits me!

Atleast our 10c presale wasnt as bad as the US one... demand > supply and is usually never equal.. nothing more can do about it now though.. just have the memories
hahaha do i want to know the plan...? i suppose you could get wesley snipes to help you with the money train pretty sure he hasnt payed his taxes so he could use some money himself.
Only a few small problems, being at home its easier to travel and I'd have no where to go as it is. plus i dont make enough money to live out of home at the moment.
Upon seeing this Thread still on top, I thought I would include MY account to keep the interest up.
The Perth night before, my seat was 5 rows back, and smack bang in the middle, and the next night I was row 8, almost smack bang in the middle, but elevated. THAT seat was the best!! Thankyou 10club.
Seat allocation was random like they said, but I met a purple haired dude who slept out in a Ticketek doorway in Newcastle and got FRONT ROW! , AWESOME!
During my Ed Experience, I heard him say something along the lines of.......
" You can yell out all the requests you like. It will only be if I read them on this Set List, that I will think your request is a good idea. "
So when I heard some bloke up the back yell out 'Crazy Mary'......I knew it didn't carry on to Ed,
so, as I too wanted to hear that favourite of mine, I echoed his request and Ed said....." oh, that's right, where's the wine?" and after his next song, broke into Crazy Mary.
Ed also eluded to how big bussiness don't give a s#!t about future generations and that big company greed will see them obtain our most precious resources...I had a feeling Ed was talking about the propossed deal to
MINE COAL from Margret River :? .
And......ladies and Gentlemen, for my 40th birthday I got everything I wished for.
This is one happy camper.
I'm just waiting for the right lotto numbers to shout every Aussi/ NZ a PJ20.
And also, Ed mentioned BOTH Perth nights, that if there was ever a boot from this Tour, PERTH would be IT! .......so if you here on that Perth boot, some girly voice requesting Crazy Mary that was us!,.....
