    You didnt used to pick on him at school did you?

    nah, we got along pretty well, always said g'day and what not, talked at parties and all that, was just a prick.. maybe he was new at it and didn't want the older people to think bad of him or something..

    Hey I remember that now. I was frisked by a female my own age then had to show her what was in my bag. I had a camera hidden under some tissues. She said the camera is okay but you'll have to throw out your packet of chewing gum because it can be used as a missile. I remember thinking how stupid because I had a purse full of makeup, eg. lippy, mascara, powder compact etc. which would hurt a lot more than a chewing gum packet!

    And then at Sydney 3 some old guy was there and just had a quick look in my bag and then said "go through love". :rolleyes:

    craaaazy - you can do so much more damage with lippe than gum ;)

    security for U2 were very touchy-feely :eek:
    wah

    If you look at a number of songs from Lost Dogs (Education, In The Moonlight, Hitchhiker, Sweet Lew etc) they were never leaked, so it is possible, especially as these songs are only at most 1 1/2 years old

    Yes.. but other songs WERE leaked... which having a 50/50 leakage rate isn't too bad :) Brother and Just a Girl are older than that... oh but they were leaked.

    Well I wasn't gonna throw my good lippy at the back of anyone's head in case Ed looked my way and I needed to look my best. ;)

    I felt like it a few times though because my view was blocked by all these 6ft plus boof headed guys for most of the night. :(

    Damn Ed for being only 5'7". He needs to wear platform shoes on stage! :D

    Whats wrong with 6ft boofheads?. I was lucky at all 4 concerts - had perfect views. So much of a difference being in the front 10-15 rows - the atmosphere is always better

    It isn't when you're only 5'5" and in 14th row and the person in your direct line of vision is 6'5"! Thank god for the screens.

    Collecting 10club tickets was ridiculous at Newie.... One at a time into a massive blocked off room... too funny

    And the security over the 3 nights of Sydney changed...

    Sydney #1- chewy confiscated, think i got a metal detector scan. Drinks checked at door to make sure they weren't alcohol... had to get smart to get grog in heh... cross on ticket and my arm!
    Sydney #2- rubber glove cavity search.. kidding! Not even an attempt to empty my pockets like the night before. No attempt to search drink up top in the oxygen lacking seat i had.
    Sydney #3- No care in the world.. in you go... Could take grog in no worries... was a saturday though i guess.


    I thought it was weird how the newie 10c tickets werent sealed in the envelope...Imagine if the chick dropped the box and all the tickets fell out of the envelopes......
