Ohhhh I think you're the guy who gave me the idea, actually!
Thats correct Zig, I am full of great ideasArms wide open with the sea as my floor.0 -
and the uni exam office emailed me back super pronto - timetable comes out on the 6th - and i get till 5pm on the 16th to change my nominated exam location ...
which means i could possible sit an exam in auckland on the same day as the show ....
jeez, that would be a bit hard to cope with i think .... id be so hyped by showtime id be like a kid on 10 red bullsimpatience is a gift ........0 -
Im even more confused now and I honestly cant think straight
Maybe Ive stuffed it up. I just got a text for Oz saying 'remember to book chose extra baggage on flights' and all I remember is that every flight Ive booked in the last 5 years we always do it.
Now Im ultra confused but gonna drop it coz Ive wasted an hour on it
Ever told you Id LOVE to be a travel agant :roll:I'll ride the wave where it takes me.0 -
Nope nope, i promise - i saw it advertised somewhere... i'll find it and post it when i do... cause we all commented on the date's being the same... hmm... a snooping we will go... :geek:[/quote]
its in the news section under the title
PJ announces Australia/New Zealand tour. Fan Club Pre-sale, travel package details coming soon.
Scheduled for release in Australia and New Zealand on Friday, 18 September, the band‘s ninth studio album, Backspacer, will be available in both countries before the rest of the world. The first single, The Fixer, went to Australian radio on 21 July and was the No. 1 most added song to radio that week.

nope :?
i always understood it as 'carry on only' for the cheapie fares - meaning you can only take carry on bags that are 10kgs or under and the size dimensions they set - nothing that needs to be checked in tho
but regardless ... we get 20kgs of luggage in the planes belly, and the carry on deal - thats the way read it ... now stop making me so parinoid
Thats exactly what Im thinking.
Ill stop nowI'll ride the wave where it takes me.0 -

actually, i tried but it wouldnt let me .... so we can just select seats together when we check in - or hopefully we can ...
i'd be funny if we all end up in single seats spread all over the planeimpatience is a gift ........0 -

A few of my friends work at JB's and one in particular sits out the back and wraps and puts the stickers on incoming cd's, i'll get onto him and find out what he knows!!! usualy they come in a day earlier so he can get them into 'shelf display mode'Dream the dreams of others then,...

yeah they I do, I used to work as a storeman for myer at the melbourne cbd store, and the virgin guys would always let us know when they actually got certain albums so we could go buy them as soon as they hit the shelves and that was always the afternoon before.Rod Laver Arena - Feb 18, 2003

They may receive the albums early but they aren't allowed to sell them early. When we owned our little record shop, we used to let select people buy them as soon as we received them but we couldn't scan the sale through until the day it is actually released because the sales went into a big system connected to the various labels and we could get in trouble. So I'd say places like JB Hifi etc would be connected to this same system.★ 1995 - Brisbane ★ 1998 - Brisbane ★ 2003 - Brisbane ★ 2006 - Brisbane ★

J&B Hi-Fi always breaks the embargo on new releases - especially the big ones. I expect to see Backspacer on the shelves before Friday the 18th in Oz. Maybe even the Wednesday.My Pearl Jam concert footage:
