Who?
Some of her 80s stuff was pretty avant-garde at the time. And the videos were a bit surreal. Like the one with Donald Sutherland and his weather machine fighting for freedom.

How does one go about getting a ticket, do you have to be the fastest mouse-twitcher in the West?

usually the ticket provider uses a kind of electronic queue system that works like a pre-booking, i.e. everyone clicks on a link and the first to click get to choose first their seats; everyone else is placed in a queue, and if the tickets don't finish before their turn, they can get to choose the seats. usually there's a time limit to complete the transaction, so that one does not have to wait a Whole day.

I'd love to go.
Guess I'll have to wait for the Blu-Ray.

She was awesomely hott back in the day, and very talented ...
She still is wonderfully talented (and insane). Who else would do this from her last album:

Edit: Or her recent collaboration about snow with Stephen Fry, again from her last album :wub:

I googled her. Not my type looks wise.
Thanks mongers, now I'm listening to Placebo's cover cause of you.
She's still pretty good, not just "in the day".
Her last two albums, Aerial and 50 Words for Snow get a fair bit of airplay here.

That cover is pretty good. I like both versions.
I would love to see her in concert.
