I've ordered my tickets (Fan Club Preorder)
heh we did it at school cos we had nothing to do...it turned out to be about £36.00 each ticket with a shipping onf about £4.50 if anyone's wondering
that's for UK (Sheffield Standing, and as I'm Fan Club I might even get one of those wristband thingies meaning I can go in before doors open...
May I see anyone there?)

nah, going to Newcastle. i'm gonna enter for one of those wristbands though, that would be sweet to be guaranteed a place at the front.
was that £4.50 charges from ticketmaster?
the first time i saw Maiden tickets were only £23 or so :(.

Bub 03-10-2006 01:14 PM

yeah ticketmaster, it was a "one time charge" though if you get me?
We ordered 4 tickets and it was still £4.50 combined shipping like

I think the total for our 4 tickets was £153.00

yeh if you buy more than 1 ticket, the handling charge stays the same. i need to use my dad's credit card, then get the money off my mates / out my bank account yet. once i've got my student account, i can get a Visa card i think, so i can use that anywhere, whereas with my Visa Electron debit card i'm limited as to where i can use it.

i need to persuade my dad to spend the £97.50 + handling fee, when he might not get the money for a while yet.

Lord Abortion 03-10-2006 04:06 PM

Dude, it was the same price last time.
Because Ticketmaster are fags.

It's maiden, I'll pay pretty much anything.

it wasn't that much per ticket back in '03, i'm sure.

Lord Abortion 03-10-2006 04:27 PM

It was £25, but with booking fee and postage, it was that.

That ain't bad at all. Audioslave was like £40:o

Deth 03-10-2006 08:19 PM

I would pay a lot to see them. A lot.

Shattered_Future 03-10-2006 08:37 PM

I would too, but Ticketmaster seriously charges way too much for handling.

Deth 03-10-2006 08:38 PM

I always try to get the tickets from the venue, it can usually save me $8 or so.

-The Frank 03-11-2006 12:18 AM

Ugh, something tells me im going to have to go up to canada to go see 'em....

crag 03-11-2006 06:12 AM

I just heard Maiden do a cover of We're Walking in the Air from that snowman thing, it's pretty cool.

Josh 03-11-2006 06:22 AM

Ollie: gonna order the tickets before monday, but still bring the money in then.
and i random thing i found on the IMOC:

Infinte Beers

Infinite beers, i cant deny them
Sobriety is hard to comprehend
I couldn't piss such streams
Even with a million beers

Intoxicated, wake up damp and wet
Scared to fall asleep again
In case I piss my pants again

Whiskey chasers, I cannot move
Standing rigid, yet swaying gently
All the beer, where will it end?
Will I reach my bed?

Tasteless beer, my minds in turmoil
One piss up ends, another fertile
Its getting to me, so scared to drink
And scared to wake now, drenched in piss

Even though it's every night
I rather like the rucks and fights
It makes me wonder makes me think
There's more to this, I need a drink

It's not the fear of a drunken state
Its just that I've been up too late
I have a six pack, some on draught
And twenty kegs just for a laugh

Its can't be all coincidence
To many beers are imminent
You tell me, you're an alcoholic
In recovery, well me I'm neither

Would you like to know the truth?
Of why I'm falling off the roof?
And find out just which side I'm on
Where would you end...legless or in debt?

Help me
Help me to down the last pint before its chucking out time
Save me
Save me from pissing my pants every night in my dreams

There's got to be more to it than this
Or tell me why do we get pissed?
I'd like to think that that when I die
They'll bury me in hops and rye

And to return, I'd drink again
Inebriate, dull the pain
And again, and again, and again

And again.......

-The Frank 03-11-2006 08:24 AM

i just had a tiger beer :cool:

Apocalyptic Raids 03-11-2006 08:26 AM

crag 03-11-2006 08:32 AM

JamJar 03-11-2006 09:07 AM

That was great. ^ 123!!!

Josh 03-11-2006 10:24 AM

i want a t-shirt with the Hallowed be thy Beer prayer on it, i can't really remember how it goes but it's great.

/googles it.

here we are:

The Beer Prayer

Our lager,
Which art in barrels,
Hallowed be thy drink.
Thy will be drunk, (I will be drunk),
At home as it is in the tavern.
Give us this day our foamy head,
And forgive us our spillage,
As we forgive those who spill against
us.
And lead us not to incarceration,
But deliver us from hangovers.
For thine is the beer, the bitter, and
the lager.
Forever and ever,
Barmen

hehe. i've only been 18 for 2 and a bit months, and the novelty of being able to buy drink has already worn off :-/

rik 03-11-2006 04:26 PM

Sweet, turns out I don't need to wait for my membership number to come through to get pre-sale tickets. I should be able to order mine by Monday.

crag 03-11-2006 04:43 PM
