    All Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide people!

    Need someone to pick a venue for a get together on the night before each BDO in that city.

    Cheers.
    Yes come on people. Where are the pre-parties for these cities???[/quote]
    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. ;)[/quote]
    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.
    I will be up for it!! staying at the Novatel aswell

    Tell me about it. I took the ferry to Stewart island the other day in the rain with the wind going nuts. I nearly got sick, & I've never ever ever had sea sickness before!
    Lady in a shop just told me it's normally 30 degrees around this time, go figure.

    Are you coming up to the Far North? The heat is INSANE up here right now. I checked the temperature outside yesterday, it was 60 degrees in my garden !

    No, it doesn't look like I'm going to make it any further north than Auckland. I'm in Queenstown now, stopping overnight in lake tekapo tomorrow before heading to Christchurch. Then a couple nights in Wellington & rotorua before heading back to Auckland got BDO!

    I hope so, this is really annoying, I keep checking their website, I need to plan, and I'm nervous about what to do with merchandise.

    It's like all the other BDOs (except maybe last time). Two main stages at the front of the main field (Tui and Kowhai). Pretty sure the order is going to be: Snoop Lion -> Arcade Fire -> Pearl Jam which means Snoop will be on the same stage as PJ with Arcade Fire in between on the other stage.

    We'll know for sure when the timetables come out (whenever that is!).
  • DonJonDonJon Posts: 5,089
    And Im pretty sure Bliss n Esso are on at 7pm (could vary) on one of 2 main stages.

    Seems a little late for me though if there are a couple of others acts in between them and PJ

    Too many clashes for me - Damn!! Only about 4 bands I really want to see, and Vista Chino is on right before PJ at a stage ages away. Oh well - I'm there to see PJ, don't care what else happens

    ehh.. close.. not snoop, beady eye. i'd rather chew on a dead wasp than watch liam gallagher, but if it means being up front for PJ...

    7.45 til 10pm. hope they go late:)
