Guest YellowGecko Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Hi Ali, you lucky thing!!! I don't care people laugh at me (including Mr YG), I've been a fan of Billy Joel since a child and am gutted I cannot go and see him in Brisbane, as I've never seen him before. We are packing up and going to live in the UK in October. Just organising everything now. Although this means I shall miss out on Billy, it also means back to the Motherland and where loads of decent bands play gigs regularly! Yay! One thing Oz does not have going for it, being so remote, is no decent bands ever come over here on tour..and when they do, tickets are twice the price they are back home. We're both big music lovers and cannot wait to get back into the gigging scene! Baby YG n' all!! lol! I am sure you will have a wicked night out, Ali, and I am envious of you. :jiggy: Jo x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum seats are the best at over $350 per seat. I am in silver and if you get a seating chart up of the BEC I am in section 52. Last time I was way at the back in section 32/33. Let me know where you end up and we can always meet u there a bit earlier and have a drink. We will be with Susie and Chris too (they used to be on here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
