Hey,

Just to let you all know, the people who are listed on the website are ticket sellers do not sell tickets, you can only get the tickets through Ticketek. *Here's the site: Newcastle Tickets (http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=MISSHIGG04&searchId=fd8825a0-976e-46f7-9633-2dcec4ae389b) - just go to Select Venue and the Newcastle gig comes up.

I found that out today when I was ringing round to get info.

Peace,
Shannon

[Shenelle]

ok, ive booked my tickets to the Newcastle gig now....

Ohh.. im very excited!

Ticketek are really skungy tho! Where do they get off sending you tickets or letting you pick them up at the venue and having to pay an extra $10.00. That just plainly sux!

So, to save someone $5.00 I bought 2 tickets to the Newcastle gig.. if anyone wants a ticket, then I dont mind u buying it off of me for $35.00.. If you bought it off Ticketek it would be $40.00.... hahahha

So if anyone wants the ticket, then let me know.

Cheers
Shenelle

I totally want to go to this because of the whole all ages thing, but in reality I know it's not really possible. I think it's a Sunday night? So maybe I could drive home that night and be back by 8:00am for work? hehe

Dibs on the $35 ticket... hehe

I'm coming with ya Shenelle *grinz*

[Mickey]

I've had a think about it (for about 5 minutes) and I'm seriously considering flying down. I've never been on a plane before and hardly left Brisbane so it would be a huge thing if I did, but I'll see what happens.

[JBK]

Ill come! anyone wanna car pool from sydney i hate driving by myself!?!!!

[lozzy]

how many seats do you have spare?? send us an email at lmp87@uow.edu.au http://missyhiggins.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

[surrealist]

Hey,

Is anyone actually staying in Newcastle? I'm trying to figure out some details, just wanted to know if anyone knew of a cheap, backpacker type place to stay?

Peace,
Shannon

[surrealist]

Hey all,

Ok, so I am now officially going to the Newcastle gig!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait http://missyhiggins.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

So I hope to be meeting up with some board members or hoepfully seeing those of you who are going to Homebake again. I'll be going with my Dad to this one (he's not coming to Homebake) so here's to hoping that we'll soon have another Missy convert http://missyhiggins.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Peace,
Shannon

[Shenelle]

Thats awesome!

Id really love to meet some board members... but if u dont want to meet me then thats cool!

I'll be at both Newcastle and Homebake!

Cherio

Shenelle

[surrealist]

Hey Shenelle,

Like I've said before, I'd love to meet ya, it'll be great to meet more Missy fans, especially ones that create awesome forums in her honour!! http://missyhiggins.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Anyway, I'll iron out details with ya closer to the actual concerts, but I'll post a pic of me in a week or two so ya know what I look like and we'll go from there I spose.

With Homebake and a Missy headlining gig over two nights, that weekend is looking to be shaping up pretty good.

Peace,
Shannon

p.s. God, I hope she plays The Cactus That Found the Beat and They Weren't There at least one, if not both concerts. I LOVE those songs.

[Mickey]

I feel so bad for not being able to go to these shows... life sucks

[Shenelle]

They are all ages!

If u need a lift.. then your more than welcome to come with us!

Cheers
Shenelle

cool sounds good to me. what does everyone wanna do?

[Shenelle]

Sounds good to me..

Who's shouting??? lol

Well that sounds fine by me... it will be fine by the other ppl that are coming in my car, cos otherwise they will have a LONG walk. ;)

What about others?

Sounds like a good idea to meet one another so we can all hang out at the gig! :p

[lozzy]

Anybody have a spare ticket to this??

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Shenelle]

Can someone help Lozzy out??? I would if I had a ticket... I promise.... come on ppl... dig deep.. :p

[lozzy]

ok so i never got to go to this :( sooooo pissed off. i wouldve gone anyways on the off chance i might be able to get in but i couldnt get in contact with any forum members and didnt wanna roam around like an idiot tryin to find a way in lmao.

now everyone's gonna say it was the best concert ever i bet.... :( nah seriously was it awesome?? hope you's had an awesome time :D

[Shenelle]

Awww lozzy, u soo missed out... we could have gotten you in soo easy.. they just looked at tickets... ive still got the whole ticket!
I should have gotten ur phone number as after we ran into you at Homebake, we were trying to find you again!

I think it was the best concert if hers ive seen in terms of singing... her voice was excellent... but the atmosphere was alot different and there was a little bit of a vibe going round! Dont worry tho.... you can get a copy of the cd if u win a monthly comp and also I'll put the pics up for it tonight!

Thanks guys!

BUGGER!! oh well i've learnt my lesson for next time... im going no matter what!!

[milko]

it was so awesome! my first missy gig and it was so bloody good! i wanna go back there again and again and just keep going it was the BEST!!! oh btw i saw you shenelle and the others with ur banner and that... i scored one of ur glo sticks
best birthday EVER!!

[surrealist]

Sorry Lozzy, but the gig was absolutely amazing, IMO quite a bit better than Homebake, maybe cos I could actually see AND hear her this time lol.

It was good to meet up with some board members, and cheers for the awesome spot you guys got - sorry if I wasn't very talkative, I was sooooo tired but anyway.

Was it just me, or did Missy play an awful lot of unreleased songs? Some of them sound really great, but I think I am like in love with that new song "Around You" that she played in the encore...fantastic stuff.

Quote of the night: "I feel like I just had sex with you all" just after Casualty, and she really did step up the vocals on that one. I always knew she had a great voice, just didn't realise just HOW good it is until I saw her at Newcastle.

Ok, sorry for the ramble.

[lozzy]

"I feel like I just had sex with you all"
ahhhh missy comes out with some funny shit :D

[Shenelle]

Ha ha ha awesome!!
Oh, im so glad u scored a glow stick... where were you?
We were just throwing them up in the air and would just watch the hands go up and grab for them! Was funny, and also was good to be able to share with everyone!

Glad u saw us and the banner.... but WTF?? why didnt u come and say ello ello? We are harmless :)

Glad u had a good birthday!

Yes, I LOVE her un-released songs.. its funny cos at Homebake Missy was forgetting the words to some of them, so she kept looking down at me and I was there singing along, so i think it helped her get back on track... hehehehe

I really love "Around You" as a song.. its very beautiful.. I was hoping she would play that one.. also I really like "Drop the Mirror". Also "100 round the bend" was good and .. GEEESH.. "The Battle"... now thats a good song too!

I cant wait for her next album! BRING IT ON MISSY!

[milko]

haha i was dead centre, about 1m and a half back.... u chucked one up and somehow it missed all the hands (i was too short to possibly snatch one from the air) and landed on the ground and i dived as best i could in such a confined space to reach it... lol guess i kinda wanted one pretty bad... i still have it, a memory i suppose!
well cos me mum and dad took me to the gig when i saw you outside the gig, somehow i couldnt see my mum approving of me saying hey to (what she thinks) are random strangers with purple mohawks and red tippy bits! and then once we were inside it was far too congested to get anywhere near to say hey
on top of that im quite shy around new people or people older than me :o
oh and also.. some gay people behind me, when u were putting ur banner up they were watching and they were like "brisbane loves missy, well we hate brisbane!" and had a chuckle to themselves... so i turned around and gave them the dirtiest look i could muster then smiled up at the beautiful banner

[milko]

lozzy i just saw ur post earlier this thread with ur email address... are u at wollongong uni?? what course do u do? my sister is at wollongong too

Ha ha ha ha.. PMSL... thats fantasic!!! ARRRR GGGRRRR them!

I think that we should make a new banner soon.... im not in tooo much of a hurry as this one took us soooo long to do... but we could make up another one that just said "We Love You Missy"... and then have the web address at the bottom!!! I dont know when we would get the chance to do that.... If anyone is interested let me know...

Well next time u will have to say ello ello... i can see how a purple mohawks could be a bit intimidating though... :eek:

[lozzy]

hmmmm thats what my banner was gonna say... i was gonna put "NSW loves you missy" but seeing as no one from NSW wants to meet up and make a sign i thought it prolly wasnt right :)

[lozzy]

lozzy i just saw ur post earlier this thread with ur email address... are u at wollongong uni?? what course do u do? my sister is at wollongong too
yeah im at wollongong uni doin exercise science and rehabilitation before i do a post grad in physiotherapy. wat does ur sis do?

[Shenelle]

hmmmm thats what my banner was gonna say... i was gonna put "NSW loves you missy" but seeing as no one from NSW wants to meet up and make a sign i thought it prolly wasnt right :)

Hrmmm well I imagine that it would cost alot to post it around, so maybe we should just do one up here and have it as the Forum banner! What do u say??

[lozzy]

well if i make it to the nrth nsw and qld gigs then i could bring my banner and u could keep it up there? or make one. either way

[surrealist]

just do one up here and have it as the Forum banner

I reckon that's a pretty good idea...see the whole division just ain't cool, it creates segregation amongst the people, and will only lead to the strengthening of this geographical divide that is ever-increasingly becoming apparent in our small internet community...do you really want to be responsible for this tyrannical oppression?

lol..I'll probably even help out for this one.
