    Hi if anyone is heading over to the Brisbane shows I'd be interested in touching base. My mate and I are both 10Cers and we managed to get good tickets for both nights.

    This is my first post but full credit to the regulars for keeping fellow fans up to date with happenings, or as it turned out in the end, lack of happenings...keep it faithfull, they'll come one day and here's hoping its soon! A special visit to NZ? Why not - I doubt making money is the primary driver.

    So how many other Kiwis going over the ditch for a/some show(s).

    I'm catching Melbourne 1, maybe Melbourne 3, and both Adelaide shows.

    I_am_a_wishlist, maybe you can update the first post to reflect the (hopefully) forthcoming list?

    Hey Bazzer, definitely keen to catch up in Melbourne. I'm going to Melbourne 1, 2, and 3 with some of my mates from Welli and my girlfriend. They are going with me to 1 and 3, but nobody's keen for the second ticket I have for the second show..................................(note the extended pause).........

    Starting to get excited now, been warming up listening to Athens. Saw them in '98 at the events centre, which started my fandom, and been hangin out like a crazy person to see them since then.

    Been reading this post for about six months. I gotta say, you guys have done a great job woth all the info you've been able to get about them coming down here or not. Although I am super lucky that I can finally get to Australia to see them, I was sooooooo hoping the boys would come and play here at home. there's something so special about knowing they have spent afew days in the cities we live and breathe and grew up in.

    Bowl of Brooklands would have been awesome. They better get down here sometime soon, at least before they are so old that they have to sit down to play.......

    And finally, where did you all go? How come nobody has posted here for days and days? It's been so long that even super-disorganised me has had to get involved. Step up!

    now, you heard nothing from me, but I was talking to a chap tonight, who's off to one of the Sydney shows. Anyhoo, he said there was a slight possibility they still may play NZ, as his gf works in Corporate travel or something, and they were trying to tee something up.

    I know nothing else, but I wonder...

    Bit late now isn't it??? I see it as my own fault anyway that I just didn't cash up and go to Australia. Oh well, next album.

    TOTALLY hearing you. Although I'm catching them over in Sydney, I'm still disappointed they won't be making it here, something that my friends can't quite understand ("Get over it! You're seeing them in Aussie - what the hell does it matter where they play?!")

    I'd love to take your spare ticket, but no way my gf will let me go without her! I still haven't decided if I'l go to Melb 3. I might just try and get tickets on the night, outside the venue for cheap. I'm also trying to get tickets to that charity gig in Melb, but I've been unlucky so far...

    Yeah. I figure I'm gonna end up selling it to some random desperate aussie on the night, whom I will share a dish of Pearl jam with...

    So the Aussie tour starts tonight. To all who are going have fun. But don't too much fun cause some Kiwi's have been left behind. Anyway make sure Ed knows how dissapointed we are. Rock on Pearl Jam and bring on the next tour. Hopefully Vector fucking Area will be finished by then.

    PS: Wonder how many Radio/TV interviews the boys will be doing. Are we gonna see Ed on Rove Live? As much as spoon Rove is I would watch if Ed was on.

    EDIT: My calender is still on October. Tour starts Tuesday.
