I decided to come home from travelling at xmas,,, and seen as the government had been pestering me last year to do jury service, I told them I was available to do it in January, sure enough I got a letter summoning me to court on the 24th January. Fine I thought, will be all over in 2 weeks, then I can head back to OZ. No such luck... on my second to last day of jury service I called selected for a case that is expected to last 6 weeks. Summer in Syndey will be over by the time I get back there... :(

I'm in a Beatles mood at the moment, so thought i would read some customer reviews of the albums on itunes while i listened. Well, blow me if every other person on there didnt complain that the albums were overpriced. What? The Beatles, who left behind the most astonishing artistic legacy the world has ever seen, or heard, overpriced at £11 a pop? People pay £50 for a pair of jeans, £15 for a new Simon Pegg film, £5 for a frigging Burger King and they get hot under the collar because they are being asked to part with a paltry £11 to be given a lifetime of ecstasy by the greatest band of all time???!! The mind boggles, it really does.

Awkward moments. Like today when I had to go and see someone in our family who I hardly know's baby. I didn't have a clue what to say, I think I said "Congratulations" about 5 times and the rest of the time I just stood there whilst my mum was asking every fact there is to know about a baby. It was really bad.

    • I see, well even if they aren't on sale it's still not a disaster sales wise, it's not like they are struggling to sell a half capacity areana
    • Blue dot wouldn’t be a thing if Ticketmasters dynamic pricing went down as well as up, it proves that the dynamic pricing was just a scam to make more money rather than something that moved with the market supply/demand. 
    • I agree that we’ll never really know up until the concert happens (and even then we still may not know) but I think promoters are having to come up with new tactics to combat ‘blue dot fever’ (already hating that phrase!) and trying to imply that concerts are selling better than they actually are / available tickets are in short supply is definitely one of them.    To add though, it is quite common at the O2 Arena for the rear blocks to not go on sale (and then remain closed for the concert and covered over to hide the empty seats). And equally common for standing to sell out first, then side/lower tier seating next and rear/upper tier seating last.    Jungle’s two concerts at the O2 are a good comparison for this - for their 1st (announced) date, all blocks are on sale and seats in all sections remain unsold, whereas for their 2nd date, the rear blocks are greyed out (more so than for Muse) and equally lots of seats remain unsold in the blue blocks. Standing for both concerts are showing as sold out.
    • MGK can and should headline. I was at one of his shows earlier in the year as a very casual fan, and there were a lot of alt people there. The show was actually class and he completely won me over. Anyone who opposes him headlining is just a gatekeeper imo, we need to move with the times.
