Christchurch woman Julia Morris started queueing at 8am today for tonight's Pink concert - but she has been waiting a lot longer than that to see her idol. "I have been waiting 15 years for this," she said.
"I am a massive, massive fan."
Ms Morris was a wee bit surprised that she was first in line, but she had company within five minutes, and several more people arrived soon after.
While it was long wait ahead with the doors not scheduled to open until 5.30pm, the sunny weather helped and the atmosphere was friendly - someone had just sent out for pizza Ms Morris said.
"Everyone is happy, we've been playing music and enjoying the day."
