BDO Lineup 2008

[Red Bear]

I'll just have to see if I can get Melbourne tickets now I guess.

or go in the ballot for tickets, 10000 are kept for that

 

[Nuffs]

the tickets sold out on Ticketmaster at 9.05. heaps of my workmates, mates etc missed out but i got mine without many hassles

and yeah i didn't know that the website was selling at midnight. but apparently there were a few probs with that last night

 

[Twizzle]

Hmm, so the tickets are going on sale at 12am? I'm getting Gold Coast ones tomorrow. Should i stay up and do it tonight?

definitely

I will be

According to the BDO website Sydney sold out in 5 minutes

Gold Coast doesn't normally sell out for a few months

 

[Mong]

GC sold out relatively quickly last year as far as the GC goes.. Was a much better line up though..

I am still debating about going to this one, i might get tickets and hope something good comes up in the next announcement.

 

[CC_Eagle]

I was up untill 2:30 - nothing. A thousand timeout's and 'page could not be displayed'.

Up at 6 for work, managed to grab two from the BDO site just in time as I heard they sold out not long after

Rage twice in a month.

F*ck....

 

[LESStar58]

The BDO line-up seems to get sh*ttier every year.

Although I hope Billy Bragg does some sideshows. He's amazing. Just goes to show what a man and his guitar can do. Man, I get teary every time I hear the chorus to "A New England".

 

[miniHINDY]

Wooord.

I'll definitely hit up some sideshows to Billy.

GC sold out by 12:30 AM this morning, got mine about 12:20 AM, thank god

I believe there is another 20,000 going on sale from Ticketek at 9:00 Am this morning

Bloody hell. Luckily got mine relatively easily right on midnight. Ticketek sold out yet?

 

[Hindyscrack]

ticketek sold out in about 10 minutes.

selling Sydney tickets on the first day, then gold coast then next, followed by the other cities which rarely sell out has created a bit of histeria and enured the tickets sold out in seconds.

two years ago i got mine for after xmas! now all tickets gone in minutes!

i suppose its money in the bank for the promoters and eases the pressure of announcing a solid second announcement.

 

[Red Bear]

There seems to have been a sharp decrease in time it takes to sell tickets lately, all of a suden everything is gone in minutes eg ashes last year, last few BDO's/Homebake's etc

Watch them appear on ebay for big money.. Scalpers are scum.. Absolute scum..

 

[Twizzle]

totally agree

I reckon alot of people who missed out on the Sydney BDO would have tried to get tix up here and fly up for the weekend

I'd do anything to see RATM as well

$440 for one ticket. This douchebag is kind enough to post it for free though and not charge you the additional 45 cents.

 

[Meanie]

It only took those e-bay rogues a few hours as well before they're selling them.

 

[hineyrulz]

f**king E Bay scumbags, i missed out on tickets. Hopefully have some luck through the ballots.

 

[leaguerules]

[Nuffs]

i heard somewhere that 2nd announcement was 21st or 28th Nov, the 3rd announcement on the 5th Dec maybe

 

[Twizzle]

Yup, Tonnes on ebay already.
