gracernz Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I've never heard of that. In the join up screen for ticketek and ticketmaster they ask for your country and give you many to choose from, so I don't see why there would be a problem. When I was buying tickets for shows in NZ I had to use a seperate email address, as each time I logged in it took me to the Australian site. So now I have a kiwi login and an aussie one. If you get stuck send me a message, you can always "live" at my house. Thanks for the offer:) I'd only followed the lovepolice link where they had that rule in bold caps, but ticketek looks to be ok. Sydney is more expensve than i expected, the other shows about what I thought they would be, funny that Melbourne tx are a whole 30c cheaper than Brisbane! So i have a couple of hours to decide and get good tx Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Odd that they don't have two prices though, one for premium and one for normal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jen Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo got all of our tickets and scored front row tickets for the State Theatre It was one the most stressfree ticket buying I've done haha good work, I was wondering if there were any front row ones left and now I know why there weren't any! After refreshing constantly for about 20 mins the best I could get was third row unfortunately, but it's smack bang in the middle though which is good. I've never been to Sydney so it's going to be a great trip Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We're actually on the side aisle, probably over in front of Pat. You'll have to come over and say hi. I'll be the one arguing with security over my camera... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Starting to fret abit and it's still 6 months away!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jen Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 how'd you go with ticketmaster? i ordered through them and only got tickets for the state theatre performance - called them up and told me to talk to the factory theatre guys, but got nowhere. Starting to fret abit and it's still 6 months away!!! Oh no that sucks!! That doesn't sound right though, because I received both sets of tickets from Ticketmaster.Maybe you should call them again or send them an email and tell them that you know people have received both sets of tickets at the same time (ie. me!).

English St Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 We got our tickets last week, for both nights. Front row of the Mez was the best Ticketmaster could give us for the State Theatre. Should get a clear view between the saftey bar and the wall! Wonder how many the Factory gig is for? I hope I don't become the second person to get punched on stage by Tweedy, I just feel compelled to give the man a hug. At the same time, I need to stop my wife from throwing her undies at Glenn.

Starting to fret abit and it's still 6 months away!!!Sorry about the delayed reply, I managed to get my factory ticket through ticketmaster in the end. The guy I rang through to escalated to the event manager who sorted it for me. Keep hounding the ticketmaster guys they should be able to sort it. Good luck! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
driver 8 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Only a couple of weeks to go now! Has anyone heard word of a support band yet? I'm hoping there won't be one.. and that they'll continue with their super long sets Quote Link to post Share on other sites

froggie Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 for melbournians, dont forget Nels & Glenn on the 7th May: http://www.melbournejazz.com/v2010/webpages/event.php?cID=50 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wise Enough Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Would have loved an "evening with Wilco", but as a consolation prize Liam Finn is a pretty good one. Of course that means stupid Auckland will definately get a Neil jam. Stupid Auckland. Notice the second Melbourne show has now sold out. I'm also going to the Nels and Glenn show, though I'm not really sure what I'm expecting, but I guess you can't go too far wrong with those guys involved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
