    Saw Foo Fighters on Friday night. Awesome show, played for nearly 3 hours and a great setlist. I was most happy that they played Everlong 'normally' - not acoustically like the last two tours. We had GA tickets, my legs are still suffering from all the dancing!! The sound was good on the ground, but I have heard from friends who had seats that they couldn't really hear Dave Grohl talking inbetween songs. I just wish that people in GA had respected the no smoking rule, really got sick of asking people to butt out.
    I was there Saturday Night. Brilliant show and legs ached yesterday! I had a position near the rail midway, on the right hand side of the soundbox. Pretty good view when he came up the ramp onto the platform and sang the accoustic songs (Including when he got a lucky 5 year old up there to sing Big Me - would have killed to be that kid, one of my favourite songs).

    Also enjoyed Tenacious D immensley, second time I've seen them live.

    Just as Dave said - Rock n Roll shouldn't have fancy computers or go for 1.5hrs. They should involve real music and go for 2.5 to 3 hours. $140 I think I paid and that was the best $140 I have spent gig-wise!

    Venue was good too, first time ive been to AAMI Park. I know what you mean Suz but open stadiums, not all will were gunna abide with smoking rules! Expected and smelt plenty of the Mary Jane

      Going to see Chisel tomorrow night but can't get excited about it. Can't help but think it will be a huge let down after last Saturday night at AAMI Park.

        I didn't go after a ticket once Steve Prestwich passed away. As great as they are, I can't help thinking it won't quite be the same.

          Chisel were good the week before last. I just thought at times that the choice of song did not have the crowd going.

          Moss is a legend.

          Barnsey still has it.

          Everyone would have their own thought on the concert.

          Would I go again? Hell yeah

            We don't get much here but in early Jan, we have Ackmel and one of my faves from the 80's Spy Vs Spy.

                I'm off to see Das Racist tonight. Looking forward to seeing them, just wish it wasn't the night before I have to do a 15 hour day at work. At least they start at 9.45.

                  Anyone going to Soundwave this year?
                  Not a huge fan, so i'm 'volunteering' there. Stand around and hand water to the photographers in front of the stage for a couple hours and get a free ticket.

                  Should be fun though

                      I was going to Soundwave, but it was mainly to see System of a Down. When they announced their side show I sold my Soundwave ticket. Would rather see them at Rod Laver Arena than be at an all day concert. (Yes, I'm getting old & grumpy!!) Plus, it was $75 cheaper. So looking forward to Wednesday night now!!

                        I'm also really excited about Wednesday night. I'm more of a fan of Serj's solo stuff but I'm still a big fan of SOAD.

                              Me too. Don't have high hopes of actually getting them though.
                              I should leave it alone but you're not right

                                Ebay might be the answer.
