    The Fox anyone?

    I'm sure we can pass the hat around and make a donation in the name of Ten Club Brisvegas Division!

    Donate to the Newcastle one which is what I'm doing as I'm going to both Brisbane 1 and Newcastle.

    30 days until the Brisbane 1 show. :shock: :)

    Meeting for a drink somewhere before the show sounds good. We're staying at the Gold Coast and will drive up. Hopefully there is parking near the venue.

    Just check before you come- I read an article this week saying there may be structrual damage to the parking due to the flooding.

    Yeah I've subscribed to the QPAC Facebook page and apparently there is no parking there at the moment and they're directing people to other parking stations nearby. But EV is not for another month so hopefully it's all back to normal by then.

    There is plenty of street parking around there anyway, just have to walk 500 m or so. Fox for drinks before every show sounds like a great idea, say 11am kick off time for 1st beer :lol:

    I made sure I'm off work on the Thursday, Friday and Saturday...unfortunately the funds wouldn't stretch to the 3rd show, but I am still pumped to be going to 2. Really looking forward to the smaller venue and getting to meet fellow fans for a few bevvies before and after the shows. I have built this up in my head to be the greatest concert experience, and I know EV will be great, I just need to calm down a bit.

    Got my free EV shirt the other day from URthekey (awesome gesture), so will be wearing that proudly on night 1 and have purchased another Vedder shirt for night 2.

    Bring it on!!!

    I'm at the Thus and Sat shows, but couldn't get tix to Sun. So excited. Hopefully we'll have a good pre- and post- show crowd turn up for drinkies. There's a lot of people I'd like to meet!

    It's a pub a few blocks from the venue, never been there, and probably wouldn't go there, but I don't tend to get out much anyway.

    It's the best of a bad bunch around there really, but it's two mins stumble from the venue. Either that or the venue wine bar where all the old ladies go for their post-ballet tea and scones!

    You're right, it's the best of a bad bunch, but it is the closest other than the venue's. It's all about the company anyway, so if it has plenty of EV fans it will be a great place. I think I'll go for a pre drink or 2 on the Thurs and Sat as well as an after drink.

    Getting close now!!! The wait is killing me. I have Soundwave next Saturday to occupy a bit of time at least (Bring on The Gaslight Anthem!). But that pales in comparison to the EV tour.
