I have all of my Dad's old Kate Bush LPs, oh and the lovely Hounds of Love on CD. Big fan when the mood takes me!

I got sooooo close!
Didn't know how the site worked so fumbled around trying to work out how to select the tickets out of the seat selection they gave - turned out you had to delete each one you DIDNT want.. then I got to the payment page, Metro Bank declined the F-ing transaction, so switched to NatWest card... heart beating, reservation clock ticking down... Filled in final Natwest security details, find tick to agree boxes.. one box left and hit purchase.. And it timed out, the tickets had been released back into the pool.
That was the last I saw of any ticket choices. boo hoo. Still.. never mind. I soon enough spent the money on something else. I bet she'll do another string of gigs next year.
