			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Head for the [Malvern] hills! Tim will be performing at the <strong>Malvern Piano Festival on Saturday 2nd June at 8.30pm</strong>. He&#8217;ll be joined on stage by a piano reinforced for his zestful exuberance, some natty attire and his aesthetically pleasing and talented band, <a href="http://www.timminchin.com/2011/05/03/entertaining-epistles-effigies-from-tims-employees-pete-and-brad-speak-out/">Brad and Pete</a>, who toured with him and the Heritage Orchestra last year.</p>
<p>Tickets are £25 and £22.50 and available from the Box Office: 01684 892277 and online <a href="https://www.malvern-tickets.co.uk/select_seats.aspx?perfid=185744">here</a>.</p>
<p>The Malvern Piano Festival runs from the 1st June to the 3rd June 2012, if you fancy some additional pianist action.</p>
<p>Tickets for Tim&#8217;s shows have been selling out very quickly so if you want to catch this show get a w[r]iggle on!</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff00ff;">UPDATE: We were informed that the tickets would be on general sale today but an error occurred. They are rectifying the situation. You will be able to buy the tickets shortly.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Did you miss out on tickets to see Tim play in an intimate, purple upside-down cow when they first went on sale? It&#8217;s not surprising if you answered, &#8216;yes,&#8217; as the initial allocation was sold out before we got a chance to announce the show! Fortunately, <strong>a second allocation of tickets are now available, however, to make things fair, there&#8217;s a bit of a twist</strong>.</p>
<p>There are <strong>150 tickets available</strong> for the show on the <strong>8th July</strong> at the <strong>Udderbelly at the Southbank Centre</strong> in <strong>London</strong>, but, to ensure that they&#8217;re bought by fans, and not touts that&#8217;ll sell them on for extortionate prices, the folk at <strong>Udderbelly Festival have decided to run a &#8220;ballot&#8221; system for them</strong>.</p>
<p>Between now and 5pm on the 8th February, you can apply for either one or two tickets to the show (only your first entry will be accepted so don&#8217;t you go trying to cheat…) and you&#8217;ll be notified as to whether you&#8217;ve been successful or not shortly after the ballot closes.</p>
<p>There are various other terms and conditions, like you need to pick the tickets up on the day with the card with which you paid for them, and it&#8217;s only open to UK residents, and the age restriction for the show is 16+. You can and should read all the small print <a href="https://www.underbelly.co.uk/timminchinballot">here on their Terms and Conditions page</a>.</p>
<p>Now then, with that all out of the way (you are still with us, right?) <a href="https://www.underbelly.co.uk/timminchinballotform">here&#8217;s the link to the page where you can apply</a>! </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: the Underbelly site is temporarily down from too many eager fans! Don&#8217;t forget, there&#8217;s no rush to get your application in as the ballot is open until Wednesday 8th February.</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: To address the queries about ticket prices if you win the ballot:<br />
This gig has unreserved seating for the standard ticket price. Sirloin priority seating allows a very limited number of customers per performance to sit near the front. No one is under any obligation to choose a sirloin seat upgrade. <strong>The ballot is for the standard £30 ticket</strong>.  If a customer wishes to upgrade this ticket to a sirloin seat, should they be available, then they have that option.</p>
