If anyone in Australia feels disapointed, check this:

They're announcing more dates in Aus and NZ soon

But these dates could just be the BDO shows, as the cities mentioned (ie "Queensland" ie Gold Coast not Brisbane) are BDO cities! And it's the promoters are "Lees and West"! ie BDO!! FUCK IT! No more side shows.

I would like to know if i have to go to Sydney or not because a BDO (while good) would not compare to a proper show.

I think gold means general admission and silver means seating.

Most likely it won't be over 18’s. Last time they played the same venue and it was all ages. If they were doing an over 18’s gig it would probably be at a smaller venue.

But the BDO doesn't have Gold and Silver tickets

Edit: Also, the Sydney BDO is usually on Australia day, two days after this gig

Ok, what i'm saying is the Sydney/Melbourne shows are stand alone shows. Obviously. But these will be the only stand alone shows this tour. The others will be the BDO shows. As per reasons stated in earlier post.

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

I think the tickets are the other way round arent they???
Or is that only the melbourne show.

Gold = Seating?
Silver = GA

Can someone 100% confirm which it is please.

Also does ticketmaster have a limit of tickets you can purchase over the net?

I think I got mine...I got a confirmation email, but I don't know what to do with the confirmation number. God, ticketmaster's setup sucks. Unless there is absolutely nothing they can do to better accommodate the thousands of buyers at once, then I'd forgive them.

you can check on the site on the "check order" option to see if they went through. the emails are often slow on big sale days.

It doesnt seem fair. There was no limit to the ammount of tickets that could be bought. The scalping companies probably got 100 tickets...Wow and ebay is lighting with them already...

YEEEEHAW! Finally got through on the phone, GA and Gold seating sold out by 9:25, picked up tickets in Silver. Looks like the website was in meltdown, I didn't even look close to getting through to the purchasing bit.

Honestly, ticketmaster are the most incompedent company ever.

A) Who opens two shows at once?
B) Who allows you to buy as many tickets as you like. All that had to happen was a couple of scalping groups to get through and ruin it for all of the real devoted fans.
