    I hope it differs from the 2009 stuff. And is a bit more lady friendly.

    Please use a different t-shirt supplier than the Australian 2009 shows.

    The quality of those t-shirts in 2009 was terrible. My Perth and Ames Melbourne shirts shrank from a L to a S the first time they were washed - and in cold water. The ones I got on the 2009 US leg where much better and I am wearing them regularly now, my Aussie ones are retired as memorabilia only.

    I've been out of the loop for a week, but my question is about venues like the Royal Theatre in Canberra. Floor is seated, and then some elevated seating. Do you think in this instance that 10C's "random" allocation will al least be all on the floor? I just had a look for tickets and you can still buy 10 rows back in the elevated seating. 10C seats won't be worse/the same as that would they? I do wonder what "unspecified locations throughout the venues" means.

    I don't need the best seats at every show I get, but if I come over for a bunch of shows and get "bad" seats at all of them, that will hurt a little.

    Heya Paul,

    Peter J D (Canberran who met you in Perth last year with your rockstar front row son).

    Hope to catch up at one of the Sydney show (will be at all three) plus Canberra on the 15th......You should duck down there first not far and very nice.

    Hope you're well.....

    PJD.

    Hey Pete...Brendan here

    the qtix website says Duration: 3 hours(including 30 minute interval)

    so to me the whole night including EJ, interval and Ed is 3 hours.

  • Hi All

    Got a bit of a problem I hope someone here might be able to help with. I'm from Melbourne but am interstate for work when EV is doing his shows here, so I got a ticket for the Sydney show on the Sat night. Its not 10C, I couldn't get them for some reason, they were sold out when I went on (9am on 2/12/10).

    Anyway, just read that STP is playing down here the same night!! I don't really want to have to choose between them!

    I checked for Tickets for Friday night Sydney show (since I can fly up after work and stay Fri night instead) but it's sold out. Would anyone want (or know someone) to swap tickets so I can go to Friday? Otherwise a straight sale and I will sell my ticket. Unfortunately I can't do Sun night.

    If there is anyone with a Fri ticket to sell or swap let me know!!

    Cheers

    I hear ya... would be very nice to know if it's totally random or random seats in the first 10 rows :D

    P.S. Some warm up material:

    The 3 tees I got were all US ones... and I got a guys one for a friend and that was a US one too..
    Sizing was the only problem with them..

    I agree. Not the best quality at all, though I do wear the one I got around sometimes. What was better was the one I bought from 2 guys selling some outside the Etihad - great quality, generic t shirt for half the price.

    Ha ha. It's kinda sad when bootleg Ts are better quality then the official ones.

    This one was truly much better, and a lot of people seeing me wearing it have asked where it came from.

    Two of the ones I got wash fine and kept shape but the PJ blue built to last one has started
    unravelling thread :(
    I got a Metallica tee last month and that is washing up really well
    and for the sizing its perfect, seems true to size... Sizing I think is always
    a problem with band tees..

    Usually they have really bad designs though.
  • Done!

    EV Sat Night, STP Sun Night

    Anyone else doing the double?
  • I also bought a ticket to Newcastle (just in case) which should be for sale in a fortnight. It's non 10C and the seat isnt brilliant (Circle, Row M).

    Would anyone be interested if it is on sale?
