We must be the kindest fans to one another! I love that everyone is buying more than needed for the list. I will also try to get two extras. We should have a "must sing (or at least hum) two random FB songs" test of fanship. Show we are worthy!
Cuz I bet 9000 "soft" fans are going to be logging in to this site tomorrow! Just a thought...
Now for a sleepless night... |

I didn't want to come off as selfish when I posted that number of fifteen. I just happen to represent several groups of people who all desperately want to come to this. I feel like an ass looking at that list when I see twos, threes and ones and then "prozacrat (15)" Kinda presumptuous. But I've got several people working the computers down here too. Hopefully we'll be able to get tickets for at least some of us. I doubt it, but I'll hope. Holy fuck. I'm getting nervous. The hour approacheth. I personally don't know jack about ordering tickets online but I hope my friends with the cards do. All I know is that I will be at this concert. I hate the idea of justifying the existence of a scalper by buying a ticket from one, but... Okay. I'm shuddering.
Regardless, I'll be in eternal bliss for just one ticket. Would it be possible for anybody with a Pixies tattoo to get preference?

I'll hum "Dog Gone." And perhaps "85 Weeks" because I'm really tired. I'm very excited and nervous about all of this, but I had my first performance since August tonight at 2AM (it was an all night event sort of thing) and I'm beat. I'll probably take a short nap but I have three alarms set for 8:30. But if I do fall asleep, I'll probably wake up before then in a cold sweat. Life was never meant to be this tense.

| OK, I'm going to sleep now, and I'll be up in the morn to get these tickets. I'm very excited, but very nervous. Just wanted to say good luck to everyone, and I hope I can report back here tomorrow morning with two extra tickets to give away to some deserving fans. Love! |

Hey, I'm gonna second that, liffey. I signed back on just to well wish everybody else as well. If I have any extras (which I doubt, since I'm tryin' for 15!) they will go to fans here. Hell, I'll even knock a few bucks off the ticket price if I have 'em. People who don't get tickets right away should have a bit of a discount to conpensate for the heart attack they have when they don't succeed right off the bat. Best of luck all!

Fuck, I could barely sleep last night. I fell asleep at 2:00 and woke up at 8:00. I am so tense right now.

I live in Winnipeg and will be trying to get the max number. I'll have my girlfriend work the phone and I'll do the internet. If i get extras I will offer them to the list at face value. If I don't get any I hope people can helpm me out. I will pay face value AND let you sleep on my couch!

So this piece of string walks into a bar. He asks the bartender for a beer. The bartender says, "I'm sorry, sir. But it is our policy not to serve pieces of string." The string was disappointed, and headed outside. He went to his car and got a knife. He began fraying his head and feet, and tied himself into a knot. He walked back into the bar and went up to the counter. "Bartender, give me a beer." Bartender: "I'm sorry. Aren't you that piece of string from earlier? String: "No, I'm a frayed knot"
My 7 year old cousin told me that joke last week. I thought it was kinda funny. |

You gotta remeber though some people are in later timezones. In Pacific time it's not even 7:00 yet and Manitoba time is only 8:00 right now. I'm sure more people will pop in as we get closer.

Isn't it 9:00 in Manitoba right now? I'm directly south of there so we should be in the same time zone. Pacific Time is two hours earlier.

Make sure to check at 9:30 though, just in case. That press release did say 9:30 ... likely an error, but who knows.
That's just a half hour away! |

| A reminder that tickets for the Regina show are going on sale at the exact same time as Winnipeg, for those who are going to both. |

| A week ago I had a dream that I was at this Winnipeg show.. and they only played four songs: Rock Music, Break My Body, Dead and Debaser. The crowd was enraged when they went off stage, but some people were justifying it by saying it was just the warm-up tour. Strange dream. Just thought I'd share this in these last moments before the tickets go on sale. |

the web site says 11 EST and if you phone the winnipeg BO they dont even open until 10:30 EST, so I dont think they are going on sale until 11.
I wouldnt open more than 1 browser. Not sure about the US ticketmaster but the canadian one will detect that (if you hammer them too quickly) and lock your IP out... |

My friend just called them. They said something to the effect of "10:00. Piss off."
