Might have to ask my mum to shout me a ticket for christmas and then ask DP to shout me an airplane ticket for christmas and then I will be set.
Mind you I want to go and see Police as well, might have to toss up between the two.

yeah they are expensive tickets! i wanted the seated ones but the cheapest was $150 so i got a standing one, which sucks because you have to stand behind the people sitting at the front.........
wonder if i should sell them on TM at the last minute....someone today sold 2 jt tickets ($300) for $890!!!!

I'm green too! Mikayla was only 3 months when I flew down to Christchurch to see them, it was the first time we were apart from more than a couple of hours. I was 10 rows from the front center of the stage - my friend bought the tickets as they went on sale, while I was in hospital after having M - it was worth every cent! THE BEST CONCERT EVER!

I totally regret not shelling out big time to get to Chch to see them last year. It would have been worth it but dammit I was too blimmin tinny to pay for those flights! Kicking myself... still kicking myself.
Hope you had a blast, Jen - bet they rocked the house!

I did shell out big time for the tickets - drove 5 hours to Chch and back just for the concert. Sat 4 rows from front, right in middle.....and felt sorry for everyone back in the stands at the very back. Had a fantastic view - could even see him spit when he sang.
Pity I had nasty morning sickness at the time - still I managed to not throw up for a whole evening! Was the best concert ever. Hope you enjoy it Jen.
