    Im sure I could get this info through10c but all you people are so smart so....

    Im gonna have to can going to Auckland BDO. Any idea if I can get rid of my tickets?

    Im assume no 10c refund and I can only sell them at FV online/EGay? BUT if I cant get over there to collect from ticket office with my ID....am I screwed and have therefore lost the money??

    I suppose if I can get a return airfare Sydney-Auckland for $350 and tickets were $360 then it would be worth my while flying over :lol::lol::lol: Joking.

    Any help would be much appreciated
    BDO tickets weren't thorugh 10C, so no issue there. I would push for a refund from NZtix due to the change in headliner (i.e. Blur).
  • Hi guys, I'm in for Adelaide and Melbourne BDO. Cheers.

    I wouldn't have thought so. They aren't up the front as far as I know. So you get a worse view, but probably better facilities. It wouldn't be worth it for me.
  • does any one know if pearl jam will have different posters for each bdo venue or just one generic poster for the whole tour?
  • They should have different posters for each show

    2006: Verona, Vienna, Zagreb, Melbourne 1-2-3, Adelaide 1-2
    2009: Melbourne

    Thanks! Will check with her, although I'm still not convinced it's worth the extra dough.

    I read somewhere that they were adjusting the viewing area so that it will be vastly improved from prior years, although it's still unclear where it is relative to the stage. Main reason I would get it is I've heard BDO crowd isn't the best so it would be added security for me, plus I would like to be able to stroll in and get a decent view without having to wait all day if possible, however not clear if the Boss ticket will get me that!

    I didn't see that as an option for Like a Boss tickets....

    So there's a pizza place not too far from my hostel in Auckland that's co-owned by a guy from Queens, with the recipe from a local pizzeria in Queens, with the son of the owner of that Queens pizzeria running the place.

    This is making me giggle like an idiot.

    That's a shame, because the souvenir tickets are awesome!
