Kylie Tour Tix: Blink And You’ll Miss Them!

Did you get ten kinds of excited when Kylie Minogue’s Australian tour was announced last week? Did you spend days practising your dialing reflexes? Did you commit your credit card number to memory and then rehearse spitting it out in double-speed? Did you do one-handed push-ups to the tune of Better The Devil You Know, just because? You’d better hope you had (except maybe the musical push-ups), since tickets for Kylie’s December tour were gobbled up at ludicrous speed when they went on sale yesterday:

Fans have snapped up tickets to Kylie Minogue’s Australian concerts with lightning speed, both shows selling out in just two minutes.

Tickets for the KylieX2008 shows in Sydney and Melbourne in December went on sale at 9am (AEST) but were gone in record time.

The pop diva has added a second concert in each location, which went on sale at 9.45am today.

Promoter Michael Gudinski said Kylie fans were in for a treat. “Kylie’s X2008 tour is her biggest production yet,” he said.”She continues to lift the bar for artists everywhere with the size and quality of her shows.”

I like the reference to “fans” having snapped up the tix – you know, as opposed to “haters” or “the largely indifferent” or “the vaguely curious”. Good to hear Kylie’s Swarovski crystals and be-Speedoed backing dancers will only be viewed by the faithful!
