I doubt there will be local band. Looking at the tour archives, Tool seem to have a habit of bringing their buddies (or a band from elswhere) on the road.

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

Looks like my friend was right!!!

Straight from the BDO website:

THE BIG DAY OUT SIDESHOWS!!!
Here we go! many more to be announced as we get closer to the Summer series!
TOOL
SYDNEY l Wednesday 24 January l Sydney Entertainment Centre

MELBOURNE l Wednesday 31 January l Myer Music Bowl

SOLD OUT!!!!

However be alert not alarmed, we're expecting to announce more shows in Sydney and Melbourne shortly – stay tuned for details. Don't buy tickets off scalpers!

And a note to the TOOL faithful in all other corners of Australasia – never fear! Additional TOOL appearances in Auckland, Queensland, Adelaide and Perth are scheduled and will be announced shortly.

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

i think that just means there will be an extra melb and sydney show. i think brisbane and the rest are shit out of luck this time. but this only means they will return for a more extensive tour later on in the year. i mean if they tour europe THREE times in a year...surely they will come down to Aus again. that's my logical reasoning...

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

Thats awesome, 3 tool fixes here i come!

The only thing I'm worried about is the bulletin posted above looks very similar to the one posted before BDO was confirmed, remember? On channel v?

I hope they havn't just made a mistake and put it in the wrong section.

That notice has been up on BDO website for about a month now. it has been discussed in other AU threads and most people think it's bollocks. There isn't really the room for extra shows in most cities.

Yeah, that's exactly what was posted on the Channel V site. before the BDO. I'm hoping like hell for another Melb show, but it's lookin' more and more unlikely the closer we get to January. :-(

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

Yeah I'm not surprised it got removed.

Back in 2004 when Metallica headlined the BDO they did 3 sideshows: Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Despite all shows selling out, they didn't add any extra shows anywhere else, so it comes as no surprise that Tool are keeping themselves to side-shows in Sydney and Melbourne (our two biggest cities).

As much as I would love to see Tool at more than their 2 side-shows, if Metallica only had 3 it makes it hard to imagine how Tool could have more...

Then again it's all good. Tool are playing Gold Coast, Sydney, Sydney BDO, Melbourne BDO, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. 7 Aussie shows is pretty good!

I wonder if they'll bring the stage show that they've been using. I mean, they're only playing 2 headline shows atm and they won't be able to us their full show for the BDO shows. I wanna see what everyone has been talking about with the lasers and white stage etc etc.

They will dude trust me, it's part of their show they won't just not include it for Australia for no reason? And by the way if you have not yet seen it, it's fucking awesome just wait and see for yourself. Guaranteed to cream your pants!

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

After my 5 shows (with a couple of them being 'front row center') I can confidently say it's fun to do once...i'd rather chill out back and watch the visual spectacular that comes packaged with a tool show anyday...but to each his own I suppose.

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

I reckon I will try to get as close as possible for the start and then make my way back towards the middle of the set to watch the visuals for wings (the boots look amazing!). The ent cent isnt all that big anyway so you can usually get a pretty decent spot on the floor regardless. I remember seeing Metallica there in 04. I turned up about 2 hours before doors and the line was almost all the way to hungry jacks. Even so I still managed to get to the barrier a number of times during the set. Everything can change once the excitement hits and people start jostling for position ;)

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

Hey does anyone know if there is anything Tool related on after the show anywhere? I'm doing a hit and run from Brisbane and want to go somewhere for a few drinks after the show as i'm catching the first plane back in the morning. If not anyone recommend somewhere to hang out/get hammered/wind down after the show that's not full of morons?

Re: 2007/01/24 - Sydney, AUS - Entertainment Centre

BTW, me and my mate are trying to think of how we can get our hands on some bud while were there, wed like to take a few joints into the concert with us. Anyone in sydney got any advice on how to hookup relatively quikly without having contacts, this is the one downside to traveling interstate for a concert, shit like this becomes a mish. Anyone got any advice let me know.
