    I'd so much rather watch Snoop than Arcade Fire.

    I am only going to be in Wellington for one full Saturday. I'm arriving pretty late at night Friday and shipping out pretty early in the morning on Sunday.
    Btw does anyone happen to know off hand what air nz's restriction on liquids is?

    If I buy anything at these shows I'm gonna have to buy a bigger suitcase :-\

    I'd rather see 2004 arcade fire but that ain't gonna happen.

    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!).

    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:)
