Yeow, can't wait for this! I'll be in the mosh pit again as I was for 08! I wonder if they will do an acoustic set like they did at the entertainment theatre. I recorded them doign My Hero acoustic as it's my favourite FF song but I'm hoping they play it in a rock set. I remember them doing Everlong half acoustic then half rock to finish off the song! Simply amazing band!

That night is still the best show I've ever been to. Will be interesting to see if they can top it.

I'm spewing about my ticket, ticketek f**ked up the processing and sending of my ticket 3 times! :evil: I now on the night of the concert have to go to the ticket booth with a letter from my Gf who bought the ticket saying it's for me, the recipt which she got when she paid for it and ID. It shouldn't be too hard but still it's a whole lot of stuffing around to just get a concert ticket, which is usually so much easier.


I had something similar happen to me TDK.
Eventually got my tickets though. Had me bloody worried for a while though!

What happened BG? I'm a little bit worried, hopefully it works out fine.

Well it was my fault actually. Entered the wrong address!
The tickets eventually got sent back to Ticketek and they emailed me asking for my actual address.
Received them about 3 weeks later.

I wouldn't stress too much mate. So long as they're on the gate you should be fine.
Just get there early.

Haha. I'm presuming the Cathedral will be packed beforehand.
Any other pubs nearby that would be good for a few brews that are a little less packed?

Let's hope they have a better set up for grog than they did for Pearl Jam. One booth on the oval and took 2 hours to get a beer.
So you've seen everything have you?

Interesting, looks pretty good I reckon. I do think that they will definitely play Bridge Burning first up being the first song from Wasting Light. I'm really looking forward to My Hero, White Limo, Stacked Actors and This Is a Call. I would love for them to play Skin and Bones too.

I checked out all their recent setlists and they're all very similar if not the same.
Would like a few smokeys thrown in there.
Down in the Park, Skin and Bones, Alone and Easy Target, February Stars would all be good.

I would love to see them play "Gimme Stitches" but I doubt that would happen.
