I went alone for the '06 show. It's not that bad.

Even if you do get stuck with another ticket, I gurantee someone will join up on here wanting to buy one.

I cant believe it's ALL AGES at the horden... WTF!! I am seriously thinking about not going.. I don't want to have to put up with a group of school kids, I get that yeah they should be able to access bands but hold a different gig.


Looking at the seating map on Ticketmaster. I wouldn't worry. The AA section is like up in the balcony bit or something. Most of it is 18+ by the looks of things.

idk about Jan 9 though. They play on the 10th here, it is possible. But it would be alot of flying.

8hrs to Perth or so.... another 3 or so to get to Busselton.


Good point, it'd probably require a slightly superhuman effort.
I'll just get back from LA on the 5th and fly back over to Sydney on the 8th. Sweet as.


Good luck getting tickets then =D Hope you get to see them.

$77 isn't too bad. They were like $60-ish last time from memory. So not too much of a difference.

Fri, Jan 8, 10 - 7:30 PM to 11:00 PM
General Admission: $77.00

I can't go on the 8th, my YYY's buddy's already got another gig to go to. Cut.

Sooo Dec 29 Festival Hall Melbs + Jan 8 Hordern Sydney added.
That just leaves me wondering whether Jan 9 will be an Adelaide date.
Watchoo guys think?

Re: Australian Thread (NEW!)

I think at the Opera House it'd easily hit the $80+ mark.

Last gig I wanted to go to at the Opera House would've been Amanda Palmer, and I think her tix were $75 or over. Before that, wanted to see Blondie however many years ago that was and tickets were over $100.

The price is the main reason I hope they don't play there. Otherwise it'd be kinda cool.

Re: Australian Thread (NEW!)

This is true. Any show is good. How much was Bjork at the Opera House? YYYs aren't the same sorta level as Bjork but it might be an idea as to how much it'll be.

They need to hurry up and announce them though!! Lily Allen's announced hers like a week after BDO went on sale.

Re: Australian Thread (NEW!)

Yeah, I loved them at the Enmore, wouldn't mind the Metro either although I doubt they'd wanna go back there.

But really, a show is a show. Just happy if they play one here. Only thing that's going to suck is if it's really expensive. Anything at the opera house usually is way over priced and my cheap arse can't afford it.

You are!?! That's awesome :D Def not bad at all.

Just a warning though, both Falls Festival Lorne and Marion Bay are sold out. Sunset Sounds or Southbound would be the best option.

Still no word on sideshows, but they will sell super fast.

Exactly. If they don't play Sydney I'm going to be shattered. It's been too long since the last time they rocked the Enmore.

Omg... it was confusing, I was well confused. I'm already a member at moshtix but it wasn't the same email as the one I got the ballot through.

Anyways, I just hope it goes ok. It's my mums CC but my name and there wasn't an option to her name in the CC info.

Re: Australian Thread (NEW!)

It should be alright. It's just to register for the pre-sale ballot. But of course a ballot doesn't mean secured tix.

So if the worst happens I'll get them in the general sale. lol

This sounds ridiculous... The NIN presale just required that you be a member of NIN.com so that they sent you an email with the password in it.

I hope you get your tickets!

Re: Australian Thread (NEW!)

Gahh. Just ranting about how fucking annoying and confusing this system is.

I suscribed to Sunset Events last week with both my emails, and it said I would get the pre-sale registration email today at 9am.

Didn't come, gave up. I get back online and I check out the website subscription again, and it has a new option if you would like to register for pre-sale. So I did.

Why can't anything ever be easy?!?
