freaky friday.
and so. i tried to be one of the first 100 morons to camp and wait for the moment the ticketing line opens for booking, for Rachel Yamagata’s concert tickets. guess what, i was still on the bus at 9am when the lines opened due to the brickhead bus driver who drove like a snail which made the fact that i woke up 30minutes earlier to be pointless.
that aside, i decided to try and place the booking via my blackberry. i logged on to the browser, got through all the ridiculous steps and up till before i got to the final step, “confirmation of booking”.
“[X] error in processing your order”.
WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUIMPOSSIBRUUUUUU!????????
and at that moment. my heart sank and i knew i lost the front row seats, that i had gotten. i refreshed and refreshed but nope. obviously the error was there to stay. i even called sistic to check if my order went through. and the matthead on the other end, who was the least bit helpful. couldnt even check for my mastercard, which obviously meant that the order didnt go through, isnt it?
After wasting 1 and a half hours, i finally got the bloody tickets. i feel as though i had crawled through a pit, and emerged with bloody fists, clutching the damn tickets in my hands.
Jo and i are going. yes we are. separated by one aisle. yes we didnt even get side by side seats. she’s no Adele, she’s no Zee Avi, she’s Rachael Yamagata. i just hope this concert makes all that bullshit worthwhile.
