Big Day Out 2008

[Booney]

Through the BDO site they went on sale at 12:01 am Friday morning,was up and got the order done.

[Swooper16]

Forgot tix went on sale today. Didnt take my credit card to work so had to lineup for about 30mins at venuetix in dacosta arcade to get a ticket. If your keen to go i would definately look at purchasing a ticket today! Even tho the lineup so far isnt much chop.

Even tho the lineup so far isnt much chop.

Best early lineup in eons IMHO. Anyway, I just bought a ticket on the Venuetix site as they are OFFICIALLY SOLD OUT on the BDO site.

[Snaggletooth Tiger]

I bought a BDO ticket, but only as a precautionary measure...
The full line-up hasn't been announced yet & I'd be ropeable if last minute entries were the likes of
TURBONEGRO (There was a rumour) or DROPKICK MURPHYS
& I DIDN'T have a ticket after it sold out!

[The Real Number 3]

Turbonegro at the BDO? That would be awesome...... Love em!

[Dogwatcher]

I haven't received my BDO ticket I ordered over the net yet, is that odd?

[The Real Number 3]

Neither have i DW....

[Dogwatcher]

well that makes me feel slightly better. see what happens in the next week.

[Booney]

I have received an email giving me an option of collecting the ticket from town or having it sent registered post ($8)

[MatteeG]

RATM are the ONLY thing worth seeing so far IMO.

$130 is RIDICULOUS. BDO used to be an 'alternative' festival. Now a corporate sell out.

Rant over.

[The Real Number 3]

Ive got that also Booney... got it as soon as i ordered the tickets... has anyone rang them yet?

What is the minimum you would pay to see Rage alone? $100? $120? So you get another 10 hours worth for $10-20......

[Snaggletooth Tiger]

Billy Bragg would be well worth checking out...
Kinda ironic how that pinko commie (he,he) seems to have sold out to the
'Big Day Out' corporate monster eh?

Good point Boon, but I'd hate to pay $120 for RATM alone... If I did see em alone at least theyd be on stage for more than 1 hour.

Has there been any more announcements?

True, but Metallica >> most other year's headliners (Ministry and Soundgarden honourable mentions)

I never got that, did you buy from venuetix? I haven't got my ticket despite ordering it over a month ago - what about you guys Dogwatcher & Real Number 3?
