It's That Time Again

You know where I'll be on Saturday, January 1. Yes indeedy, the annual park-my-ass-in-front-of-a-television viewing of the Vienna Philharmonic's New Year's Day Concert. I've tried for three years to get tickets via their online lottery, and after not getting them yet again on the third attempt, I've finally given up. I'm so jaded about it that I'll venture to guess that their online lottery is bogus. I can't help but wonder if anyone who tries to get tickets via that method has actually won the chance to purchase two tickets.

Funny, one wouldn't think there would be such a demand. I'll tell you what, next year I'll enter the lottery and if I win, I'll pay you to take the tickets.

Yep, it's just me and the blue-haired ladies who like classical music.

Since you offered...
If you do plan on entering the lottery, then you should visit the Vienna Philharmonic's web site on January 1. That's when the lottery for the year 2006 takes place.

Me too. And January 1 happens sooner in Australia :-)
