Got an e-mither from seetickets yesterday detailing a second date on the Friday?!
No sign of it online though?! 
Purchased a ticket for the Saturday anyway, although I doubt it'll sell out that quickly... 
If they do the Friday as well, I might go for that too! :)

Blimey. I just had to google that. Is it confirmed then?
And, to think, she's only just lost all that weight!
Birds, eh?

Phew! :)
Prices finally bottomed out on ebay. There's loads on there now.
Got a pair for face value, but expect they'll drop further.

Anyone else?
Me and Greg are on this.
Which fine drinking establishments do you have lined up this time Jarvo? Might take a bit to beat Borough Market though, great place that. 
Wouldn't mind seeing a bit of the gig this time either!

Oi git - we're going up aginst each other then. On ebay bidding for me and Burty Boy - i don't have much patience for it though, so if these bids are not successful - for everything else there's mastercard, and 'buy it now'

I got Leggy's and a set for me just roughly face value (30 notes plus 3 quid booking fee was the original price).
Don't pay more than that and don't do any of those 'Buy it now' jobs cos they're all asking too much.
I expect the Olympia will release a load more tickets before the date anyways. They always do.

Natch.
Bonz, you'll get them for face value on scarletmist.com. If you're bidding on eBay, sign up to auctionsniper.com, you can't lose.

It's all under control - we are going to the ball!
Anyone know how much I'd expect to pay for a ticket outside? I seem to have been 'fcuked over', so to speak, on eJert.

Just had a really apologetic e-mail off the guy saying that Royal Mail have sent the ticket back to him for some reason and he's issued me a refund - so all looks good as Emily has come up with a spare too. All is good in Jerts world!

its a dj set

Yup, Chems at Warehouse is a DJ set - they play a good mix of records, though (they played on the same night as New Order at Summercase 2006).
Supported by Simian Mobile Disco at the Warehouse.
Will SMD play a DJ set as well.
Wasn't that the pair who me and G watched bang around on a couple of flight cases at Rock Ness?

That's the one - I prefer dancing than watching, though! :p

Free DJ set on the South Bank next weekend too!
I was stood outside one of their sets with Dufford and Shug in Summercase, but I can't remember a thing about it.
