YEAH! I’m going to see Madonna for her “Sticky and Sweet” tour when it hits Vancouver, but no thanks to Ticketmaster.

TICKETMASTER - YOU SUCK ASS!!!

I went on Ticktmaster’s website to get tickets and I was put “in line” when it was processing my selection. I was kicked out not once, not twice, not even 3 times but I would say over 10 times. Over 10 times of waiting in the que, for 10 minutes, ticketmaster would just kick me out saying “we’ve encountered a problem, sorry for any inconvenience”. WTF!!!

It wasn’t only me who was having problems with ticketmaster today, but it looks like everyone was. Russ even tried on his computer and he failed 4 times.

Ticketmaster if you are going to sell high profile acts, and charge a service fee, maybe you should make sure your service is working!

At any rate I’m going though only by my self as I could not get 2 tickets, but managed to get one ticket by the side stage. I guess I shouldn’t say I’m going alone as I’ll be going with about 40 thousand other fans!

I can’t wait to get “Sticky and Sweet”!!!

UPDATE: I went back online to check for tickets and all of a sudden Ticketmaster had $350 tickets available. I don’t recall seeing them at first and I wonder if they just sold the upper level and then opened up the lower level afterwards.  At any rate I now have a floor ticket, 15th row no less! WOOT!  I know I’ll be able to get rid of my other ticket (crossing my fingers).

This morning I was up at 5:30am so I could take Junior out for a walk and get ready for work (big Bosses are in).

As I was walking Junior and looking at my early morning tweets Buzz Bishop (whom I follow) announced on his blog that Madonna is finally going to make her appearance in Vancouver. I figured she would finally make it this way since her last tours she made it to at least one Canadian City. She will be playing at BC Stadium and tickets go on sale May 24th (May 20th if you are member of her fan club). I had the pleasure of attending her Reinvetion Tour and had an awesome time.

In other news, I also heard there was a shooting just a block away from my home last night. I must have been in a deep sleep as I didn’t hear any gunfire at all. News 1130 has the scoop on what has happened.

Madonna has just released a new song to co-inside with her Live Earth performance later this summer called “Hey You”.

You can download the song free of charge for the next 6 days at MSN.com or by clicking on the following link.

Though she doesn’t sing about the Earth, she does sing about “love” and changing each other. This is a very 60’s influence song, peace and love.

I’m enjoying it, but when do I not enjoy Madonna (ok American Life sucked, but whatever).
