^^ Thanks for posting.

Is it me, or does this not make any sense on any level? For one thing, the charity benefits the Museum of the City of New York, yet the auction is for an event occurring on the other side of the globe. Secondly, the package includes backstage passes, yet this is not a "meet and greet," which kind of begs the question "what's the point then?" Thirdly, the auction ends just a week before the Sydney show, which means that people who would be traveling from the U.S. (I don't think Charitybuzz has an Australian outpost) would have less than a week to slap together a major travel itinerary. They could have made a much more lucrative auction if they included first class airfare, five-star hotels and an actual meet and greet.
