    Argh! Ticketek was so busy! And I had to enter the captcha thing 3 times before I got it right! Still, got a couple of tickets in the lower bowl, Section 8 so happy enough.

    I thought the same thing happened after I entered my CC details and it said an error occurred. Luckily it kept them in the cart? I guess you weren't so lucky. :(

    I was a bit bummed out it took me so long to get through the process (i.e. my tickets weren't as good as they could have been) but I guess I should just be happy to have tickets at all!

    Tried for Prince Brisbane tickets in Silver section (the $99 ones) yesterday morning and missed out due to the Ticketek clusterf*ck. I'm not prepared to pay $179, $350 or $450 a ticket. There are still $179 tickets available so will just wait it out and see if they get reduced. Someone was saying that if all the tickets don't sell, they reduce the price just before the show.

    There is a 12 day break between the Brisbane show (May 18) and he third Melbourne show (May 30) so I think Adelaide and/or Perth could definitely be a possibility.

    Can any of you guys do me a favour?

    I made a bit of a mistake when I popped into JB Hifi in Melbourne yesterday. They had this 5 CD boxset of Prince albums (Prince Original Album Series) that I tried getting here before the show but it got delayed and hadn't come out yet.

    Unfortunately, we were in a bit of a hurry to get the SkyBus to the airport so I flagged it and figured I'd pick it up back here since it is out now. It's actually been pulled from sale for legal reasons, so JB Hifi in Australia aren't meant to be selling it and JB Hifi NZ aren't selling it at all.

    If someone is passing by a JB Hifi (probably they all have them, the one I was in was the DFO South Wharf one) sometime and wants to pop in and see if they have it that would be great. I don't know what shipping to NZ would be for a CD (it's 5CD but they are just in cardboard sleeves and an outer box so about the same size as a regular CD) but I guess it shouldn't be too much. Maybe $8 for an air mail parcel post, probably less if it will squeeze under 20mm to be eligible for letter rates (not sure of the weight).

    I can pay via paypal once I know how much it will be. Shouldn't be more than $20 but someone online said JB were selling them for as little as $10 which would be really great! Anyway, let me know if you can help out. Otherwise, I might send a few people message on facebook with the same request...
