    Yep......wait til we've all got out tax returns done :D

    Yeah, that's what I was going to say, as I get a few thousand back off tax at the end of the financial year. I'd prefer they came out next year as I could better afford them then. I'm planning on seeing them Sydney, Adelaide and my own city, Melbourne. And Ed said at the third Melbourne concert back in '06 they'd be back in a few years, I clearly remember him saying that. Though it depends on how many "a few" means, few usually meaning 3 or more.

    and he said a couple of years at the Perth gig :lol:
    Got my fingers crossed to do as much of this tour as possible ....hopefully ALL of it!(Aus leg, that is)
    I think I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone again as much as the shows!

    Just seems odd to me to have the fiscal year (for personal that is) be different than the calendar year.

    I knew there was a reason you Aussies lived so far away from everyone else, you're fucking crazy! :lol:

    If they do play shows out in Aus, hopefully they'll be willing to hop a little further and play a show or two in Hong Kong. Given I moved out here recently, it would be a shame not to see a show this tour.

    Right on, summer time!
    Plus more annual leave accumulated!
    & More money saved
    & no chance of missing out on tickets as I won't be away!

    I have to politely disagree - purely based on my personal experience...

    For Melbourne 1, I was third row, but the last two seats of the aisle, extreme left. For the other two I had first elevation first few rows, and had a much better/comfortable view. I would have hated to have those same seats for all 3 shows.

    Make all shows 10C tickets, but perhaps make subsequent shows random to mix it up a bit.

    Just my $0.02

    Bring on the lottery. It seemed to work fantastically for the last US East Coast tour so I'm guessing it'll be carried on for all other PJ tours

    you won't get it. coppel has too much of a say as to who gets what tickets, PJ had to fight to get the number of fan club tickets they got, and had to fight to get them in the front.

    normally fanclubs get a very small percentage of tickets, and they are normally not all together in the front few rows like PJ get.

    To give you an idea what my spending was like in 2006, ill outline my cost breakdown:

    Keep in mind I live in Sydney, so for me it was good cos the tour kicked off in Sydney, and I ended up doing all shows

    Flights. Sydney - Bris, Bris - Melb, Melb - Syd, Syd - Ade, Ade - Perth, Perth - Sydney. Total $800.

    Accommodation: Average of $100 per night, only had to pay for Accomm in Melbourne, Newcastle and Adelaide

    Tickets: $100 each and 12 concerts, so $1200.

    Remember to set some cash aside for any merch purchases, posters, shirts, hoodies etc

    My Annual Leave money came in handy for most of the trip, 3 1/2 week holiday hehe

    Thats what I was thinking, couldnt remember the exact wording - definately use the lottery system!!
