got an email from ricky saying he is off on tour next spring and that i should get a move on if i want to get a couple of tickets, they got on sale 10am this morning.

so... got my credit card layout in front of me, all the ticket hotline numbers and the booking numbers of the venues in case i had trouble. really fancied his last night. in bornemouth bic fri 2nd march. so started dialing 2 mins before. lines busy, then i get through then hear a message saying the line is busy and it hangs up. great so try the other numbers. eventually i manage to get on hold and here after a few mins... you are a queue position forty.....nine so hold for ages listening to some bad music which repeats after 10 secs... then agaes later i get to position 5 at 10.40am. only to here the is a fault with the automated system and it hangs up on me!

anyway i managed to get through, bournmouth is fully booked so we're off to brighton tues 6th march

i did think about buying extra tickets to flog on ebay then remembered i hate people who do that so i didn't. missed out on seeing bill bailey for the same reason.

i paid £60 for a pair delivered. a pair on ebay could cost you today £140... some people....

anybody else going to brighton....?

do you have a seating plan for the brighton centre? its not on their website... bet i'm behind a post
