    They arrived in Perth on Saturday.

    I heard that they had booked 2 weeks at the Grand Chancellor in Hobart not sure when that was tho....Might be after the tour.....
    They have been here b4 and they go Trout Fishing up the Lakes.....
    Dave Grohl was here when QOTSA played on the 4th...

    :) Yeah, it was GREAT!!! As you would already know, being a mum, I dont get to do stuff like that much anymore, so two nights in Margies was cool :cool:
    Actually quite decent price wise too, booked a holiday house in Prevelly, massive 4x3 in the bush, deck, spa and ended up only $230 per couple for two nights...made a bit of noise on the deck the first night, cranked up really bad 80's tunes i.e B52's and danced our little hearts out ;)

    Hows things in Dwells??

    please tell me it was you i just added on facebook :eek: hahahaa!!

    looks like Kylie has a sweet spot for foos!! :D
    wah

    Why is it that I only get excited about upcoming Pearl Jam shows and don't give a shit about other shows that I buy tickets to?
    I'm not really caring at all about seeing the Foo's, and not really caring about seeing Powderfinger.

    Weird :confused:

    Sweet dreams Suz :)

    Same here. Pearl Jam is the only band I really go nuts about. I would like to see the Foos one day though.

    It's STILL raining in Sydney!! :eek:

    Yeah u should see Foos they have great energy on the stage well worth seeing......U wouldnt want to see multiple shows tho like PJ cos Foos pretty much do the same things night after night...

    RHCP would still be the most disappointment Ive ever had seeing a Live show..after waiting a long time to see them.....:(


    I get excited about seeing anything Live but of course the excitement is greater when its PJ

    I was realllllly disappointed the first time i saw RHCP (hmm maybe back in 2000 ish?), but the next time i saw them, they were totally awesome. Not awesome enough for me to $150 to see them last time they toured though!!

    Although i get excited about other bands, nothing beats the excitement and feelings before a PJ show!
    I have no signature

    Haha...no it was FAAAARK for The Foo's :D but yeah it was a bit like that. I'm so battered and bruised today! Not much voice left and I'm sure every bone in my feet is broken from guys jumping on my feet. But I don't give a shite, it was worth it!!!!!

    Haven't got much time, cuz I have to go get the kids soon.

    Last night was AMAZING!!!! Rob - start getting excited baby!!!! and that goes for all of you that are seeing them.
    What a show!! We got up nice and close -and Suz.....We did get that T shaped stage and Dave spent a LOT of time running up and down it. Those guys just have so much fun on stage. Foo's played for just over 2 hours. A lot of songs and a lot of talking - feck he's a funny bugger!
    Suz is right though....they pretty much do the same thing every night. Glenn (fishy) posted a youtube of the triangle player a while back - they did that. HILARIOUS!!!! I posted a link the other night where they're backstage , but up on screen teasing about the encore - we got that. VERY funny!!!!

    Ummmm.....oh yeah! Tonnes of merchandise - but take plenty of $$$ :( My T shirt was about a third of the size of Glenn's and it cost more!! WTF! My ladies T was $50 and his T was $40.
    I got a few photo's and I'll pop them up later - dunno if they're any good or not??
    Khaki King was AMAZING!!!! and some guy came on with her for a little while and played what they said was a "bong". I don't know what it was but it was very cool!

    If I had've been in a seated section I would've gone for a drink while The Mess Hall were playing. They were OK....but I would've quite happilly have missed them. They were the kind of band that if I went to a pub and they got up and started playing, I'd say "WOW! they're pretty good for 2 guys!" but I wasn't really impressed as far as them supporting The Foo's. I'd rather Khaki King stayed on.

    Anyhoo....that's all my head can think of at the moment. I wish I was seeing them again while they're in Aus....they FECKEN ROCKED!!!! and Dave is THE coolest guy on earth!!!!! :D

    Yes - very sore :D
    I was so happy with out posi!!! When we got there the lines were already huge - people had started lining up at 6am :eek:
    It was a great crowd....a few F**kheads, as always - pushing to get to the front etc; but it was still great!!!! Glad I wore the heels - made me just that bit taller :D

    I expected shirts to be $40, but the T I bought for %50....it's only one of those really thin ones, so yeah - rip off. It was so hard to choose - there were heaps of different shirts and other stuff.

    I've just uploaded some photo's...I didn't really get many cuz my battery was being a biatch :mad: There were a lot of people taking video, so I'm off to see if there are any youtubes up yet.

    I tried SO hard to get a good photo of Taylor for you, Stella.....pretty hard when the man doesn't keep still for 5 seconds though :D About the best shots I got of him were when he was backstage and up on the screen smoking a ciggy through his nose :D LOL!

    Just had a look and theres a few youtubes up already - not very good though.

    Guess what I'm doing at the moment!!! Pigging out on YOYO'S!!!! LMFAO!!!
  • ozsmalltowngirlozsmalltowngirl Posts: 14,362
    I've been trying to remember the set list, but I'm hopelees at that :o I knew I didn't get to hear 2 of the songs I really wanted....but meh.....certainly couldn't complain :D

    So had a look on the forum and found this....pretty sure there were more songs, but this is all I could find for now...

    Haha.....He listens to PJ non stop these days and I think living on his own and being able to just kick back and really listen....as he said to me - he's "got a whole new appreciation for them" :) Took him long enough! :rolleyes:
    And I think as far as his comment last night it was a case of the Foo's were SO GREAT and he knows PJ are even better, so he's really pumped for their next tour. So looks like I won't be travelling around Australia on my own now :)

    and yes....next year me thinks :D FOR SURE!!!!!!
