    Do you think that TC tickets get us in the Fixer section? Or is it possible that we may be allocated to the Backspacer section too?

    I would hope we would be in the Fixer section, otherwise what is the point of the early entry

    To get to the front of the Back? :P I dont know, good point. Speaking of early entry, how early is everyone planning on getting there?

    This venue is so small, there is not a bad seat/posi. So glad they chose to play there for Perth :)

    How many people does it fit?
    From memory ( :? :|:lol: ) about 15/16 thousand.

    This is a pic I took as I got about 1/3 onto the oval for the jack johnson gig last year...

    early entry

    plus the ticketmaster price does not include their fees so it will probably come down to about $5 more for 10c

    if you bought your 10C tickets on the 6th then you have secured backstage passes

    you might want to check your maths there, two GA tickets from Ticketmaster (including handling fee) will cost you $256.05, the TC tickets were A$294.99 so thats close enough to an extra $20 per ticket for early entry, which for the lucky few still employed may not be any kind of advantage at all.

    extra dollars are because we love pearl jam so much that we want to get in there really early to soak up the whole expirence

    should have bought them on the friday as I got mine for 286, 20 dollars for early entry and possibly the best spots in the house, then w00t

    So where is the TC position here??

    No idea, I think we just have to stake a spot up the front

    I noticed that the Adelaide fixer field tickets were split in to north (stone side) and south (mike side). so there might be some type of divider down the middle.

    I got 6 mike side tickets for friends, kind of hoping they can get close, really hoping 10c tickets will let us pick the side (gunning for mike side right up the front!)

    its a case of wait and see, as the early entry is awesome means we can grab some of the best turf. as for the rest its all wait and see. I feel sorry for anyone in melbourne who gets stuck up the back of the GA section.

    that 286 you're looking at doesn't include the fees your credit card company are going to charge you because the TC insisted on charging us in US dollars, most cards are now charging 3% for this

    We are all in the same boat mate. Im resigned to the fact that I will have to watch from afar. I can see them up close on videos so gonna try not to get pissed about my view and just bounce along to the music :)

    I live in the hope that 'a few' venues may have split GA and some extra advantage for 10 clubbers but they are not marketing it this way.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    Adamamy, I was not being a smart arse just so you know .... and anything you have heard about me is probably true :shock:

    Random, first drink in 6 months??? All I ask is for no dribble on my shoulder ;)
    Its sometimes hard to get everyone in the same place at once .... but dude go ahead and organise some shit and we can all get on the bandwagon. Would be cool to have a before and after par-tay :D
