Not worth buying tickets... sucks this year. Oh well, hopefully they can develop some taste and pick better bands. The Mars Volta is their only saving grace, although not quite worth $120.
The Stooges own Mars Volta

I like to think of it as a cultural experience rather than specifically a musical festival :) Besides, it'll be an early timeslot, good way to ease into the day. He's a champion and is well worth listening to, for my money anyway.

Is it definite that Rollins is the replacement for AFI? If it is, than that is seriously fucked up. How could they replace a MUSICAL act (albeit shit musical act) with a spoken word performer. And i thought the line up could'nt get any worse. Oh well, i have already sold my syd ticket and will hopefully go to the Mars Volta side show instead

Sir, i'm not a scalper so i have no need to wait until two weeks before BDO to sell it becuase i sold it to a mate at the sale price, i have no need to be like those cunts on ebay who's asking price for any decent tickets is similar to the worth of your soul.

Yours sincerely,

Nice, for once it's a relatively clash-free timetable as far as I can see, and the only ones I do spot at a glance are bands I wouldn't mind seeing and bands I *WILL* see, so that's easily decided :) Perhaps this is the benefit of a show that isn't packed out with shit you want to see all day non-stop on every stage!

OH WTFFF!!!!!
How the fuck can you put mars volta and the white stripes on at the same time! That's the stupidest thing ever.

Might go do:
11:30-12:15: Airbourne (recommend people see them. they're very cheesy ac/dc style)
12:15-1:00: Faker
1:00-1:50: Gerling
1:50-2:30: Subways (or maybe slater-kinney)
3:30-4:20: Wolfmother
5:15-6:15: Kings of Leon
6:15-7:15: Living End
7:15-8:15: Franz
8:30-9:15: Arse Volta
9:15-10:30: White stripes.

seriously man
why did you pay through the nose to go to a shit gig, and not even watch the only decent bands playing?
because I' going to see the bands that I like.

11:30-12:15: Airbourne (recommend people see them. they're very cheesy ac/dc style) - are great.
12:15-1:00: Faker - havent heard before, but nothing else on at that time. mate likes them so will see them with him
1:00-1:50: Gerling - havent heard them but a mate recommended them, so may check them out
1:50-2:30: Subways (or maybe slater-kinney) - good band
3:30-4:20: Wolfmother - good band
5:15-6:15: Kings of Leon - awesome band
6:15-7:15: Living End - good band (to bring back old memories of high school)
7:15-8:15: Franz - shit band
8:30-9:15: Arse Volta - amazing band
9:15-10:30: White stripes. - awesome band

their sole three albums run in total for just over 1.5 hours... they could easily remove "we will fall", "i need somebody", "death trip", "l.a. blues" (it'd be orgasmic but i'd doubt they'd play it), and a few of their other weaker (BUT STILL FUCKING AWESOME BECAUSE THEY'RE THE FUCKING STOOGES) songs and be left with the best set ever. but they have to play "i got a right".

i have a feeling kiosk will get mauled by everyone.
