PEOPLE PAY GOOD MONEY FOR THE CURE: The auction for Passport tickets is underway, with bidding open on the final passes to those intimate, back-to-the-club nights organised in aid of War Child. Runaway mad-loopy money is already being bid for the Cure, commanding an impressive GBP1,650 at the moment. The Darkness have cracked the five hundred quid barrier, while Super Furry Animals in Cardiff (160) and Pet Shop Boys (255) are both doing well. At the other end of the scale, Lemar, Amy Winehouse and Big Brovaz have yet to have anyone make a bid, while the Sugababes might be suffering from just one finger tapping a nose because, um, they've been listed as the Sugarbabes on Ebay. Katie Melua and Elbow have both had only one bid each, sticking at twenty-five quid, while Atomic Kitten have finally put one over on the 'babes, reaching the giddy heights of twenty six quid - a whole pound more. That this is almost certainly going to be the final Atomic Kitten gig ever, you'd have thought they'd have got a few more expressions of interest, if only from Kerry wanting to go down and slap Frost about a bit. Three days or so of bidding left, mind, so anything could happen.
