Friday I'm in Love shirt at Kohl's
Kohl's has a Friday I'm in Love shirt from Freeze for $9.99. (Thanks Lindsey)
A Japanese Dream
Kazuko, Junko, and Akiko are going to the 'Reflections' shows, and Kazuko made some shirts for it.
We're back!
Very sorry about the mess over the last 24 hours, especially the re-posting of the old tickets for sale, but Blogger was/is having major problems, and restored an old backup while fixing it. Hope that's sorted now. Posts and comments since Wednesday morning have vanished, but I will restore what I can, if they can't.

Preview of what to expect at the SOH
A look inside of the Sydney Opera House and an idea of what to expect at these incredibly special shows.
(Thanks Perfect.Murder)
(Thanks Perfect.Murder)
'Reflections' on Blu-ray
The Sydney Opera House said last night that 'Reflections' will also be out on Blu-ray, not just DVD. (Thanks John)
Important note from SOH & Vivid
SOHnews - To fans of #TheCure. Overwhelmed by demand for limited tickets. Be careful of scalpers - no tickets have yet been printed.
themusicnetwork - @VividLIVE organisers say "there are no plans for a 3rd show" by The Cure & warn against buying scalping tickets. http://bit.ly/iPsfYY
Musicfeeds also has a story about how quickly the shows sold out. (Thanks Junko)

SOH pre-sale today
Another pre-sale! Night 1 - Night 2. Sold out again.
Pre-sale is live! Modular email. Good luck!
Sold out, but a few tickets keep popping up. Keep trying!
If you missed out on the pre-sales yesterday, there's another one at the SOH website today/tonight. The links from yesterday should work for today (Night 1 - Night 2), so have them open and ready to go when the email arrives later in the day.
Note: The "4 tickets total" rule still applies today, so if you've already purchased 4 (from SOH, not TM), you can not buy more today.

(Thanks Damon!)
SOH Priority Sale
Night 1 - Night 2. Go! Sold out for now.
Note the limit of 4 total for both nights, not each night!
YOUR EXCLUSIVE PRIORITY IS NOW OPEN!
As a friend of Sydney Opera House who lives outside NSW, we wanted to give you extra time to book your flights and accommodation to this memorable event. Demand for these tickets is very high so access is strictly limited to 4 tickets per person (for the whole event, not each night). If you miss out today don’t despair. The final allocation will be released on Thursday when tickets open to the general public at 9am.
(Thanks Damon!)

SOH subscriber pre-sale on now!
Update: Subscribers to QPAC, Queensland Performing Arts Centre, in Brisbane are also getting a pre-sale right now!
(Thanks Damon)
From Grinderman: "Just nabbed my tickets in the exclusive Super Presale! See you guys there! People who are paid subscribers to the Opera House get advance-advance presale. Very limited tickets; no way to access it without being a paid subscriber. It's not worth joining for one show; it's quite pricey. They only release a very limited number of tickets too. You're still more likely to get better seats in general presale or general sale. Very, very limited were available in all sections. I can't say for certain, but after presale goes on sale tomorrow, I'd say that between a quarter to a half of all tickets will be gone. Both nights were available. The best seats went within the first minute or two, and the rest sold out in the first 10 minutes. But it seems that they've released a second wave of tickets in the last few minutes.
Congratulations, Grinderman, Dane, and Damon!

'Reflections' pre-sale
While we wait for the pre-sale info (make sure you are signed up here and here for it), I thought I should clear something up. For Sydney, it will be sometime on May 11th, probably in the morning, but that means it's the afternoon/evening of May 10th in the US, and very early morning on May 11th in Europe. For example, let's say it happens at 9am on the 11th in Sydney, that would be 11am in New Zealand, 8am in Japan, 7am in Hong Kong, 1am in much of Europe, midnight in the UK, 7pm eastern US, 6pm central US, 5pm mountain US, 4pm pacific US (all US times are on May 10th).

'Faith' live in Camden, NJ (Aug. 1st, 2004)
Getting excited about 'Reflections' yet? Here's a great pro-shot clip of 'Faith' that was posted on YouTube a few days ago. From the 'Curiosa' show in Camden, NJ on Aug. 1st, 2004. Want more? Here's 'Charlotte Sometimes' from the same show.
(Thanks jL and SL)

Knock it out of the park!
From Roger: "Right now into the studio for some serious work on these Reflection songs. We set the bar high with Trilogy, this will surpass it!"
Caution on buying tickets
To those of you who are not going to the shows, but were going to try to help buy tickets, and then sell them to fans who are, you might need to rethink those plans. Maggie went ahead and did a practice run with Bat For Lashes tickets, and noticed that the only delivery option was "Hold For Collection". No shipping or print at home options. I tried it with several other Vivid shows and got the same result. So if you are not going to be at the show to pick up the tickets, please don't buy them. (Thanks Maggie)
