    Kate: "part of the show centres around The Ninth Wave". Sufuckingperb! :-)

    Someone calculated that there are a total of 13,620 sets of 4 tickets available (ie 54,480 individual tix).

    But... does anyone know how many of those are earmarked for pre-sale? And how many ppl have pre-sale codes I wonder?

    Does anyone know of the Copthorne Tara at Kensington, or at least of the general vicinity? Would it be a safe and pleasant area to stay?
    If I were dead, could I do this?

    ^ From the website, apparently. It was in relation to some people mentioning the unfortunate link between the tour photo and the MH370 ditched plane.

    A message from Kate...

    Hallo everyone,

    I was working all day yesterday and so was totally unaware of the reaction, apart from friends who'd told me it had all gone bonkers....I am completely overwhelmed and genuinely shocked by the incredibly positive response from everyone. Thank you!

    I am however rather concerned at some comments that have been passed on to me and I feel I should clarify my position.... The image that was chosen to advertise the shows originates from a conceptual piece called The Ninth Wave that was released in 1985. It is about a woman who is lost at sea but is rescued in the end. Months ago I thought that, as part of the show centres around this musical piece, it would hopefully make a dramatic shot. The timing is really unfortunate. There is absolutely no connection with the current tragedy that is heading the news and I apologise from the bottom of my heart if this has in any way upset or at all offended anyone.

    Thank you again to everyone who has responded so warmly to the announcement of the shows.

    With best wishes,

    Kate

    What kind of schmuck would even suggest that Kate was mocking, or otherwise exploiting, a real world plane crash? Someone is obviously just trying to put a damper on this glorious event. She should have just told them to fuck off.

    As long as she doesn't leave out "Lake Tahoe," that is.
