    Sorry for the delay guys.
    I am in my final semester of my degree and my research/work/life have taken priority for the moment in time.

    As much as I would love to see side-shows in Jan/Feb 2014 in Australia, unless BDO is completely sold-out and sold-out soon, I am pretty sure there is no chance of Pearl Jam getting around an "exclusive" contract with the BDO.

    Good luck, but don't hold your breath.

    I thought there might have been a small chance of something on the second Sydney BDO date, but I guess not (so far).

    Always band merch (their own merch) at BDO.

    Potentially bad news for future BDO's and possibly Aucklands BDO 2014.

    I wonder if we could argue for a side show in Tassie.. :lol:

    Every year there is an article like this.
    I am sure it is just creative writing on behalf of the journalist here.

    if the numbers are true, then it doesn't matter about the journo guessing if NZ will be cancelled. a $10m loss is still a $10m loss either way.

    see pearl jam, we warned you that it's a shit festival, but you didn't listen and took the cash.
    Yeh I've seen Pearl Jam, too. But I can't remember the dates.

    It will suck if the NZ leg is cancelled but I guess that just means I have to grab a ticket for Australia. Which one will be the nicest?

    On the other hand if it goes ahead and BDO is cancelled following that, it will mean I've been to 3 "last BDOs ever"! Neat!

    If NZ is cancelled for 2014 and they only go ahead with the Australia dates, I suggest Melbourne.
    Melbourne is a smaller venue for the festival, it has a better layout in terms of seeing other bands, in my opinion.
    Melbourne crowd are usually nicer than the Gold Coast crowd.
    I haven't hit Sydney BDO before, but I am assuming it is larger than Melbourne.
    Melbourne is a cooler city to hang out in as well.
