Not sure if anyone watches Smallville on the WB, but they played the new Depeche Mode single "Precious". The more I hear it, the more I like it. I've also listened to a few of the club mixes and they were good as well in my opinion. Anyhow, I've preordered my copy of the album via ITunes and got my tickets to the Dallas show in November :)

AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Tickets went on sale today at 10:am for the Houston show. I called toyotacenter for tickets and the lady said "It is not 10 yet" "whoops, now it is". Yea, I am first caller at exactly 10 am. She says to hold on a sec while she gets someone to help her pull it up and then comes back on the phone "Hello are you still here?" Uh, yes I'm still here. "Hello?" Much louder, YES, I'M STILL HERE!. "Well I guess he hung up". Click! You moranic Bitttttttttttttttttccccchhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I call back and guess what. Lines are too busy to get in. Well I hope a scalper got good seats, cause now I'm going to have to pay double for the concert.
That sux :( I think through the Presale that I got my tickets via were obvioulsy not the best seats in the place, but nonetheless, still good seats. I guessing floor seats went for double for what I paid for mine and probably more than that through a ticket broker :( I might have been able to get better seats, but I didn't call until the 2nd day after they went on sale (via presale).

This whole Toyota Center buyng tickets thing is ridiculous to say the least. Buying them on-line is a joke - at least trying to the second they go on sale. And calling to buy them? Those people couldn't give a rat's &^% if they take their sweet team. Before they start the process, you are already sitting in the nosebleed seats. "Is that Martin Gore or an ant on stage?" I went to a broker yesterday and paid the heavy price. Seems that is the only thing that seems to work these days.

what are the brokers charging?
I got mine online at 10 am and I got floor seats. $75 each ($85/ea after fees...grrr)
Still, I think that seeing DM is worth it. I have never seen them live and this is probably one of the last tours they will do..if not the last.
Can't wait!!
