    Bought 2 tix to Perth! The General Pants Co was pretty empty when I walked in, so people in Perth City may want to try there if they dont want to wait until 9am.

    I elected e ticket option and havent yet received it in email, anyone else have same?

    In FAQ, all tickets regardless of mailing option should be out by Dec.
    (If I remember correctly from reading it last night.)

    Or I don't know

    So excited!! I'm not a huge fan of the Big Day Out, but I couldn't resist going if Pearl Jam are headlining. Just booked tickets for Gold Coast, Melbourne and two shows in Sydney. Psyched!!
  • who else is everyone keen to see?

    personally I'm really looking forward to mudhoney, cosmic psychos, flume, arcade fire and blur.

    glad they have made it so pj/arcade/blur won't clash

    Really looking at the lineup....very unimpressed..have seen blur before at the Horden Pavillion. ...they were ok.

    So I assume PJ will play last.....so who's going down to the main stage and going to stay there all day?

    I'll be there :)

    trying to work out Sydney accom, sooo freaking expensive, esp after what I've already spent on tickets - I can hear my credit card crying
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!

    Ive been busy booking flights and hostels since the presale went on

    MELBOURNE - SYDNEY 1 - SYDNEY 2

    Staying at All Nations City Backpackers in Melbourne and Glebe Village Backpackers in Sydney.

    I think theyre good choices, so if anyone else books at these places please private message me and we can hang out! Im going with my girlfriend. Im 29 shes 23.

    I got a $39 flight from Mel to Syd on Jetstar on the 25th of Jan, theyre probably still available.

    I will also be going to the Perth Big Day Out, but thats my hometown.

    I know the Big Day Out has a reputation for hooliganism but I went this year in Perth and it really was quite pleasant I didnt have 1 bad experience with dickheads - to be honest the Southbound festival was far worse on the bogan scale... It should be a really good festival.

    Is BDO traditionally always on Australia Day?

    This year Australia Day falls on Sydney, Day 1. Last year it fell on Melbourne, I believe.
