I have GA and I really don't want to line up all day.

 

I lined up for BTWB at 10am and it was seriously the most draining experience just sitting there all day long. I saw people arrive at 5pm and we're basically right next to me in the pit so I was really pissed off about that.

 

Might get there at 12pm this time, I don't even know. I want LMZ  :cry:  :cry:  :cry:

Yeah well this time it's different because there is no pit. There's like 200-250 with LMZ tix so they will probably form like the front 3 or so lines by the main stage and maybe a couple of lines behind the middle runway, but there are still plenty of great spots anyway. Really, I thought the queue at MSG would be madness but it wasn't until 3pm or so that it started really getting long. But I guess you could always go past Melb Park and see what the queue is like. In fact, I live near there and I have seated tix (for both shows)....I might even go past in the morning if anyone wants to know what it's like...

That would be great if you could do that actually, very helpful!

 

Not many people were lining up when I got there at 10am last time, about 100 people really but then again that was the second show and I'm going to the first this time so that could be a completely different situation.

Well the first show is supposedly "sold out" - although how true that is remains to be seen. But yeah I could probably head down there in the morning to have a look at the queue. At least I can leave. hehe The advantage of having a seat. ;) Although I still have a few more GA shows too...

But queueing in the heat would be worse. You'd get even more dehydrated. Plus i guess she wont come here in dec and jan is tennis so rla wont be available and the other venues in aus too like perth arena.

Wow, good point haha! I didn't even think of that.

Guys I'm starting to get so excited for the concert. Whenever I listen to Venus and GUY I imagine how it's gonna sound live and I die (just a little inside)

I still cant decide whether I want to que, or actually see a bit of Melbourne in my 2 days there :flop: I have LMZ for both shows, so might que for one and then just rock up to the other. 

 

Any suggestions of things to see? I'll probably hang outside her hotel on the Friday night after I arrive, then maybe sight see on sat and que on Sunday (as I assume the line will be shorter, and queing will get me a better spot).

I was gonna suggest queueing on Sunday too since you are much more likely to get exactly where you want as tix are not selling so good = less people queueing. ;)

 

What sort of stuff do you like re sight seeing? There's a free tram (#35) that will take you round most of the city. Maybe we could meet up on the Saturday before the show - if you want? :)

Yeah I like that plan :) So hopefully on the Saturday i'll end up in a good spot in the mosh near the middle bridge and then Sunday try for front row somewhere. 

 

Tram sounds like a good plan! Its the Perth in me that just naturally assumes anywhere in the CBD is walking distance :P will probably just explore a bit and do some shopping. I'm staying right next to treasury gardens, so should be close to CBD, Rod Laver and Park Hyatt if she stays there again. But yeah if you feel like meeting up that would be cool! will probably still make my way to the venue mid afternoon though, just to beat the majority of LMZ people who aren't lining.

U have lmz anyway so im sure u will get a great spot anyway. Theres loke a max of 250 peeps with those tix. ;)

I live like 3 blocks from treasury gardens haha so u will be staying near me. I also live close to park hyatt but im not so much in to 'stalking' the hotels. Lol plus i get to meet her on the sunday so dont need to go to the hotel i suppose. I reckon i know which hotel u ate staying at too.:p

Most stuff in melb is walking distance. Docklands is a bit further but the free tram goes down there.

Is she actually staying at the Park Hyatt again? I missed out on meeting her last time and seeing as though I don't have meet and greet tix, you bet your ass I'm going to be stalking her :|

No idea where she's staying, but that would seem a logical choice since it's close to the venue but still kinda central enough to the city.

I will try and stalk her Friday, I'm assuming that's when she'll arrive in Melbourne that day.

 

Need to know where she's staying first :laughga:

I have to work on the Friday....those two weeks are gonna be weird. Trying to remember what days I'm meant to be working. lol But I have no idea where she'll stay anyway. It won't necessarily be the same as last time.
