FAN WINS MEET AND GREET TICKETS


ONE lucky KISS fan has scored a meet and greet with the band at Saturday's concert.

SeaFM's Jay and Dave walked into a meeting and surprised Dean Dobson with the prize earlier this afternoon.

The surprise came after a supportive friend wrote a letter to the radio station, asking if the meet-and-greet could be set-up for Mackay's biggest KISS fan.

Mr Dobson, who has several KISS tattoos and has been wearing KISST-shirts ever since their Mackay concert was announced, will now be able to meet the band on Saturday night.

MACKAY residents and businesses are getting into the KISS spirit as the town prepares for this weekend's concert.

Ticket sales were on track to break the record for the biggest concert held in Mackay, MECC manager Mark Fawcett said.

A couple of hundred tickets are still available but Mr Fawcett is urging people not to leave their ticket purchases to the last minute to avoid long line-ups at the gate.

"We'd like it to be easier for people to get into the stadium on the night," he said. "If we have to sell tickets as well as get people in, it really gets congested."

Residents and businesses are making the most out of the concert that will rock Mackay.

Caneland Central's JB Hi Fi has embraced the KISS spirit with a display of posters, KISS CDs and even some old vinyl records, which sold out.

ORDERS AN OCEAN OF FOOD
PLAYING to a packed-out arena sure makes you hungry.

Something of a party started on Sunday night at East Sydney seafood staple Blue Angel when the four members of KISS and their entourage rocked up for a late feed following their Allphones Arena gig.

Fellow diners tell Confidential the band - who feasted on 10kg of King Island crab, platters of lobster sashimi and south pacific oysters - racked up a bill of more than $5000. They also left a $500 tip for the staff, we hear.

While long-time owner Marcello Marcobello would not discuss numbers yesterday, he was surprised at the amount of wine on the table.

"For rock stars they were unbelievably tame," he said.
