I hadn't checked my emails in Paris, so didn't realise it was today and we missed the 11am Fri sale. Only happened to see a news story about 12 o'clock.

I registered but haven't heard anything and tbh seeing the prices I'm "almost" glad.

Starting at £60 for watching on a monitor in another continent I believe.

I registered but haven't heard anything and tbh seeing the prices I'm "almost" glad. I think there are between 900,000 and 1 million tickets available. The demand is quite astonishing. I wonder exactly how many shows she'd have to do before they stopped selling out. I did register for tickets, but not in the 'pre-sale'. So I am not expecting to get any. |

I might try to get a ticket to one of the rearranged date to see Suede in London in December instead. It's probably more my scene anyway.

I'm glad my daughter is too young to understand who Taylor Swift is.

We have tickets for the Sat.
Thank fuck. Though it's only going to get worse going on as she gets older.
Time to introduce 'grass roots' gigs I think.

Felice.
They were £125 each.
I'd want a weekend festival for that per head. They're on the PMs credit card.
If her niece is up here for Uni next year I might not be going.

I think that is the price for big concerts now.
I looked at Bruce, but the cheapest tickets were £100 plus booking fees. And there weren't any available anyway.
The ones actually available were £200 each plus fees.
I also thought about going to see Lana Del Ray yesterday, but by the time looked the cheapest tickets were £300 plus fees on resale sites. Add in the cost to get to London and maybe a hotel and it's £400-500 each.
An experience your wallet will never forget.
I might spend the 'savings' on a new SSD for the PS5. the 2TB one is woefully overfull. I was hoping that there might be 4TB ones in the Prime Day sale reasonably 'cheap'.
I want a known brand. There is a Seagate one I was thinking about.

Yeah it is the price.
Fucking murder though.
The "they don't make any money from cd sales" argument falls on its arse with folk like her though.
Bruce can fucking do one, Mr Working class hero dynamic pricing motherfucker.
A guy I know was at the Lana concert yesterday (or sat or whenever it was) taking his daughter and said it was really good.

@bbc Pervgate. Mrs T reckons it's Graham Norton, I have my doubts.
My money's on Tom Allen.

Either way it's drunk driving the wrong way up life's motorway. Back to the 1980s at a steady 58 mph. Tids as Thelma, Shenguin as Louise. Unless those references are too up to date for you? |

I just did a VR escape room. I think it was an Ubisoft one. It was quite impressive in one way, but it made me feel nauseous and the headset dug into my head so it was a relief when it finished. 4 stars.
