    Did just that and no problem with a refund - all received. Cheers Bazzer appreciate it.

    BTW. Sydney 2 1/2 hour set - blue stage (band was asked to do 3 hr said no) 8-)

    Just Sydney?

    I think a lot of people are expecting 3 hour sets.

    Would assume for all states but def 2.5 Sydney on Blue stage.

    Note sure why they said no to 3hrs but would assume 'their' 2.5 would turn into 3!?!?!
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    Auckland through Sydney. Doing a loop around NZ before hand. Unfortunately real life requires my presence back before the start of Feb. :(

    And I still can't find a thin water repellant jacket. Might just have to go shopping in Auckland or Queenstown for one.

    Where did you hear that? Yeah hopefully it stretched to 3 hours, given no other act after PJ on the Blue Stage. ;)

    THREE WEEKS

    ONLY THREE WEEKS

    :D

    I love how we've gone from 'Pearl Jam will play a 2 hour set' to 'WE'LL PLAY TILL WE GET KICKED OUT!'

    WHich means a PROPER show and with more time we'll probably get a couple of rarities which wouldn't have happened with a short set.

    you live in NZ by the the looks of your username? if you, you should have an email ticket as they don't post BDO tix internationally.
    Yeh I've seen Pearl Jam, too. But I can't remember the dates.

    Yep, e-tickets in NZ. Check the purchase confirmation e-mail. It may be at the bottom of that. I didn't get my e-tickets for a while after buying them, they came in a separate e-mail but I know the public sale tix I bought had the e-ticket attachment right at the bottom, not obvious it was there. Try that. I did e-mail them about the pre-pre-sale tix & they said they were still coming but that was a while ago & I have since received them so send them an e-mail if you don't have them.

    maybe people want to go to the festival instead and try and get their $190 worth?

    either that or the whole BDO thing is a complete buzzkill and simply no one can be arsed.

    The pre-party/get togethers are on the day/night before the BDO. :)

    Gold Coast BDO and Auckland BDO people organised theirs ages ago. Come on Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide! And what about Perth BDO people .. are you guys doing anything??

    I am staying at the Novotel motel which is just up the road from the venue. It has a couple of bars ,would be a good spot for a Ten Club get together. I think the day of the BDO would be best for a get together as some members might only be in town for that day and would miss out. But in saying that, we could have one the night before, one on the day of the BDO and an after party. ;)

    Some of you members might remember me from Ed pre show in Newcastle 2011. I was the man with the purple hair. And it will be purple again for BDO. So I wont be hard to recognise. So come on PJ brothers and Sistas lets get together and share some of the PJ Family Love and Friendship before the show. It might be the only chance we get to see each other for a long time . Peace and Love to all. Hear The Sirens.
