gutted!

So, tickets went on sale yesterday for U2, who will be over here for a concert, March 17th. I didn't have the money to buy a ticket, and figured that the tickets would sell out pretty quickly.... but in under 2 hours.
They announced that there would be a second concert - on the 18th, and the tickets will go on sale next Monday. I'm away from Sunday, and won't be anywhere to get a ticket. That, and I don't really have anyone to go with. Last time I saw them was in Columbus, Ohio for their POP tour. Awesome night, but I'd gone along with a German and Irish friend, and they were more interested in getting stoned.... so I stood and watched the concert, screaming my head off by myself. Yeah, I know it's a concert, and what the hell do you need company for - but.... I'm actually sick of doing all these things on my own. I want to have someone around for afterwards when you can say,... yeah, and when they sang... woweeeeeeeee! :)

So... I need to check out flights to Auckland, and seek out that crazy person who will want to go along with me before next Monday, when I'll then have to find someone to buy the tickets too. hehehee.

All out - I'll be around $500 out of pocket to get there..... do I go? I love the guys... but I could go and do a weeks kayaking in Abel Tasman for the same price.
Ahh well.
