SA Footy

one show is already sold out.


anyone else going?

Got ticks for Mildura. Not sure if I'll go though.

Going to show 1.

yep, I'm going.
they should be playing at a better (bigger) venue.
the entertainment centre is a crappy place for live music

Exactly,why not Memorial Drive? Saw Powderfinger there and it was the perfect summer's night,and a great venue.

yeah the entertainment centre isnt that great for live shows.

saw matchbox twenty play there a few years back.
sound was pretty ordinary.

Might have been the band on that occasion

Saw Powderfinger at the Tivoli in Pirie Street in about 1993 (i think) supporting Ammonia(Western Australian band)!!!
Powderfinger then the support act with about 15 people in the crowd!!! Including me.....
How times have changed!!!

Similar to me and the missus 2 or 3 years ago, we went to Heaven to see Regurgitator, the band on beforehand was Wolfmother, there was lucky to have been about 15 people in the joint at that stage, I stood at the edge of the dance floor watching them thinking that they might go somewhere!

Yep going to the first show

ohh matchbox twenty arent that bad!!!
i think the reason the sound was crap was because we were sitting up the back/top, really echoed and stuff.


least with powderfinger ill be in general admin, hopefully the sound quality is a lot better.


im not overly keen on seeing silverchair play.
their new stuff is...well...gay?

Stop bagging the EntCent guys! I'm going there next Monday night to see The Cure!

I saw INXS there a few months ago. The show was great but the venue itself had no atmosphere whatsoever and the sound insde is very ordinary. Memorial Drive would be mch better. I even saw powderfinger outdoors at Adelaide Uni once and they rocked.

This "Powderfinger" you speak of is this the same one that has Bernard Fanning as a lead singer????

Do you know of another powderfinger?

whatcha got there? wrote:im not overly keen on seeing silverchair play. their new stuff is...well...gay?

Yep.

glad someone else agrees.

The way I (and most other people) see this show is as a Powderfinger show with Silverchair supporting!

I don't care that it is at the entertainment centre - I think the sound quality etc. will be fine.

BTW - WGT the sound quality at matchbox twenty was fine. It crapped over the U2 sound quality - which I add was only bad because of the sound reverberations around AAMI Shitium

gosh its hard being related to a know-it-all.


but i agree on the part about silverchair supporting powderfinger.

Went and saw Silverchair on Friday night at Brixton Academy. I thought they were great. I hadn't really listened to their new album until before the concert on Friday. I don't mind it.

The Powderfinger and Silverchair concert will be great. The only let down will be the venue. The Entertainment Centre has no atmosphere at all.
