Because Noel's little finger > Kasabian.

Jose Cuervo said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Tbh they are both shit

Braveheart81 said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Maybe if they released an album of esoteric electronic music you'd be more into them.

Jose Cuervo said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Needs to be moar Ambient imo.....either that or they need to do a 90s gangster rap album

MorningAfterboy said on the 25th Nov, 2011

I'm almost certain that Oasis didn't even cost that much money last time they were here.

Braveheart81 said on the 25th Nov, 2011

I am going to dub you post-hipster.

hearsz said on the 25th Nov, 2011

They weren't MAB - The Oasis gigs were $73 but that was back in 2005 though. The Noel solo gigs a year later were $80 from memory...

01seb said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Oh no! Someone here like a few bands you don't.
Now you must tell us that you disapprove of them and why we would be so much better off without them touring here.

berlinchair101 said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Live forever in a gangstas paradise.

Jose Cuervo said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Oh no! Someone here like a few bands you don't.

I disapprove of these bands.....we would be much better with out them touring because they suck

amidoingitright?

01seb said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Much better Jose. You have definitely influenced my judgement on this matter.

gumbuoy said on the 25th Nov, 2011

So, then, they WERE cheapear than Noel tickets are now...

Braveheart81 said on the 25th Nov, 2011

Glad we sorted that out.

gumbuoy said on the 25th Nov, 2011

okay, i read that differently in my head. i wont delete the post, since BH has already replied to it. carry on, nothing to see here...

sarcasm_mister said on the 27th Nov, 2011

just got my paws on some Noel tix. can't wait!

oldgregg said on the 27th Nov, 2011

why now? surely you'd get better seats in the morning?

sarcasm_mister said on the 27th Nov, 2011

i'm up watching football/tennis/f1 tonight so won't be up at 9am. i'm a little annoyed that the Enmore floor has been divided into 2 with no price difference. hoping it turns out like A+J stone and they don't have a barrier despite having Floor1 and Floor2 tickets. even then i'm not fussed, never a bad spot at the Enmore.

Aidan1234567 said on the 27th Nov, 2011

they rarely ever, ever have the barricade, I've been there so 5 times and i dont think they ever had it except maybe once but im not 100% sure on that despite always having Floor 1 & Floor 2 tickets

ThatDude123 said on the 27th Nov, 2011

I heard that they can only have the barrier up now when it's at capacity (thus validating the original reason to have it; to protect the floor) because during a recent emergency check it was deemed an OH&S hazard.

MorningAfterboy said on the 27th Nov, 2011

I hear Regina George is dating Aaron Samuels again. The 2 were seen canoodling at Chris Isen's halloween party... they've been inseparable ever since.

Stefan Beck said on the 28th Nov, 2011

I heard she does car commercials IN JAPAN.

oldgregg said on the 28th Nov, 2011

One time she met John Stamos on a plane and he told her she was pretty.

ThatDude123 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Big Day Out organisers have announced two more amazing side shows - Kanye West and Soundgarden. Tickets go on sale for all shows at 9am AEDT on Tuesday 6 December.

Kanye West has rewritten the rulebook of music and had more impact on the world of hip-hop in the 2000s than any other rapper or producer. He is a controversial, outspoken, acclaimed visionary and the only place to see him in Australia is as part of the 2012 Big Day Out.

Kanye West BDO side shows:

Sydney: Sydney Entertainment Centre
Friday, 27 January, 2012
Tickets: www.ticketmaster.com.au, www.bigdayout.com

Melbourne: Sidney Myer Music Bowl
Tuesday, 31 January, 2012
Tickets: www.ticketmaster.com.au, www.theartscentre.com.au, www.bigdayout.com

When Big Day Out was born 20 years ago, a new wave of music was emerging from the American north-west. At the crest of that wave was one of the most incendiary heavy rock bands of our time: Soundgarden. It's been 15 years since they last graced our shores and the first time since 1997 that Soundgarden will perform outside of the USA!

Soundgarden will be joined on these side shows by very special guests, The Bronx. This LA quintet churn out raw riffs and piercing hooks, the band channels their kinetic live energy through razor sharp wit and unbridled aggression. No sombreros or alter egos here just the straight up power of The Bronx.

Soundgarden + The Bronx BDO side shows:

Sydney: Sydney Entertainment Centre
Wednesday, 25 January, 2011
Tickets: www.ticketmaster.com.au, www.bigdayout.com

Melbourne: Sidney Myer Music Bowl, MELBOURNE
Wednesday, 1 February, 2011
Tickets: www.ticketmaster.com.au, www.theartscentre.com.au, www.bigdayout.com

Tickets go on sale for all shows at 9am AEDT on Tuesday 6 December.

sarcasm_mister said on the 28th Nov, 2011

awesome news! first non-festival kanye show since MBDTF came out?

ThatDude123 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Like that, BDO 2012 is officially redundant

sarcasm_mister said on the 28th Nov, 2011

that would make 2010 the only non-redundant BDO ever.

(possibly one or two others that i can't remember)

ThatDude123 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Rammstein had no sideshows. They sold me on this year's edition.

Quicky said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Interesting. If the Mariachi El Bronx sideshow is on the same night as the Bronx's support slot with Soundgarden. Why and how are they going to do two sets? I know the two venues aren't too far from each other but it seems a bit weird.

ThatDude123 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

If a band can't do two sets in two different but very close places on one night then they can fuck right out of the way of bands who'll actually work for their money.

Daft Punks Lip Sweat said on the 28th Nov, 2011

I think it's kinda piss poor that Perth & Adelaide aren't getting those Kanye sideshows. I mean surely Kanye could sell out a show in Perth at least?

daveyac8881 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Are there even 12,000 people in Perth?

Stefan Beck said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Hyuk hyuk hyuk.

Jose Cuervo said on the 28th Nov, 2011

So sound garden same night as Meb and kanye sane as Royksopp

Easy decision is easy

MorningAfterboy said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Sorry MCR, looks like it's Kanye for me.

oldgregg said on the 28th Nov, 2011

question friends, where's better to buy tickets this morning, ticketmaster or the bdo site? or are the allocations split?

RAMONESelaar said on the 28th Nov, 2011

No, just a lot of West Australians.

Jose Cuervo said on the 28th Nov, 2011

bdo site.....slightly cheaper because they dont slap you with as many extra fees

RAMONESelaar said on the 28th Nov, 2011

"as many" is the key part of that sentence though.

Braveheart81 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

I imagine their headline gig will probably start fairly late.

A few weeks ago, I saw You Am I at the Annandale on the same night they supported Cold Chisel at All Phones Arena. They came on stage at 11pm at the Annandale.

Late for a school night. Particularly if in this case, school night actually isn't just a eumphemism for work.

MorningAfterboy said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Got my Battles ticket no fuss! Hot tip, gang: the place to get them is bigdayoutsideshows.com. Oztix rules, Ticketek drools.

sarcasm_mister said on the 28th Nov, 2011

no issues at all with ticketek at my end.

Braveheart81 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Row M for noel. not bad, considering when i went and check back it was up to row w in the last section at the top.

sarcasm_mister said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Enmore on Facebook :

Quicky said on the 28th Nov, 2011

I'll get my tickets for Kasabian and FTP later.

berlinchair101 said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Oh I forget about this. Oh well, 'Ye and SG aren't till Friday at least.

MorningAfterboy said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Here's a better idea: Don't.

hedonism gibbon said on the 28th Nov, 2011

sheesh the bronx supporting soundgarden is a nice bonus, hope the SEC sound system gives em a fair crack

but fark it's gonna cost a bit the ent cent being what it is... no dinner til tuesday 6th december!

hearsz said on the 28th Nov, 2011

According to the Big Day Out Sideshow page, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds Sydney show has SOLD OUT!!!

And there's already pricks on Ebay trying to sell them for as much as $400+ a piece!! Bastards...

MorningAfterboy said on the 28th Nov, 2011

As if it wasn't enough of a rip-off already.

sarcasm_mister said on the 28th Nov, 2011

Quicky said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Foster The People sold out. Never mind.

I would be going to Grinderman with the Kasabian money if I could, MAB.

ThatDude123 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

lol! i always kinda thought that anyone willing to pay ridiculous prices to see a show would've been put the effort in to buy tickets when they went on sale.

(ok that was a poorly constructed sentence but you know what i mean)

That's the thing: it's the casual attendees who usually drive up the prices, not the die-hards, because they'd prefer to pay a higher price at their own time than go through the inconvenience of refreshing at 8:59am when they should be starting school/uni/work.

ThatDude123 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Foster The People sold out. Never mind.

I would be going to Grinderman with the Kasabian money if I could, MAB.

Bunch of cost price Grinderman tix on resale these last few days, get on it son.

MorningAfterboy said on the 29th Nov, 2011

He can't; 18 plus. Lol.

Braveheart81 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

I've seen Quicky on facebook lately.

I wonder if we should become facebook friends? The only person on my list younger than him is my mate's daughter, and she's only just younger than him!

oldgregg said on the 29th Nov, 2011

probably the best way to his mum.

gumbuoy said on the 29th Nov, 2011

two of my cousins kids (who i've never met), both aged 15, have friended me on facebook. i couldnt figure out why at first then they started constantly spamming me with game requests.

Braveheart81 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Who else is going to water their plants in Farmville or whatever the fuck you do in Farmville.

Daft Punks Lip Sweat said on the 29th Nov, 2011

On the topic of Facebook, is Alex Coutts "Alexphotosite"?

MorningAfterboy said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Old mate Shitsmear himself. The very same.

ThatDude123 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Went from spamming fl threads to spamming fan pages. What a downgrade.

tyler07 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Are OFWGKTA supporting Yeezy? The MTV ad I just saw made it seem like it...

MorningAfterboy said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Oh, FUCK. Sneaky Sound System and Odd Future would be ridiculous.

Quicky said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Hey MAB, the Kimbra album is pretty good.

daveyac8881 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Please no

Quicky said on the 29th Nov, 2011

That would be a hectic show.

MorningAfterboy said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Not the time or place. But good on you. And her.

berlinchair101 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Seeing as they have their own sideshow I'd imagine they won't be supporting.

MorningAfterboy said on the 29th Nov, 2011

It's still a possibility.

berlinchair101 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

For sure, but the odds are a fair bit lower.

I think MMJ played their own sideshow as well as support Neil Young, so there's a precedent.

Jose Cuervo said on the 29th Nov, 2011

....the Bronx

berlinchair101 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Are fantastic.

Parkway Drive to support Kanye IMO

RAMONESelaar said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Are fantastic.

Parkway Drive to support Kanye IMO

Nah m8, that fucken poof can support them and then fuck off.

Faaaarken.

Jose Cuervo said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Yeah well technically they are already doing two shows so i don't see why odd future couldn't do 2

berlinchair101 said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Yeah I know, I was hoping my hilarious PWD would cover my lapse.

Jose Cuervo said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Nah

Stefan Beck said on the 29th Nov, 2011

Kanye and Odd Future aren't really all that similar.
Yeezy co-sign aside they operate in entirely different spheres.

sarcasm_mister said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Foster the People at the Enmore has sold out.

RAMONESelaar said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Devastated

MorningAfterboy said on the 5th Dec, 2011

I'll try and contain my excitement.

sarcasm_mister said on the 5th Dec, 2011

i blame parents who gave the kiddies their christmas money a month early.

RAMONESelaar said on the 5th Dec, 2011

I just don't care.

Quicky said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Saving my money for Laneway sideshows anyways.

therat said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Wait, Foster the People aren't cool anymore? How dare they become popular!

RAMONESelaar said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Foster The People were cool?

MorningAfterboy said on the 5th Dec, 2011

They've always been popular, at the very least.

oldgregg said on the 5th Dec, 2011

i still like them, even if we are selling their cd at work now.

daveyac8881 said on the 5th Dec, 2011

The first I heard of them was when I was dragged to them at Splendour. I thought they were rubbish but they were already seemed pretty popular. What changed?

RAMONESelaar said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Nothing changed. They're still popular, if not more so. Their show sold out, it'd be pretty impressive to be unpopular and sell out a show.

VanAce said on the 5th Dec, 2011

if i get my act together i will pick up tickets to battles. missed them at the bdo a couple of years ago.

MorningAfterboy said on the 5th Dec, 2011

Get on it, son; Battles are going to slay.

Berghain said on the 3rd Jan, 2012

hi there, i am desperately after 2 x girl talk tickets for the melbourne side show gig on jan 31st 2012 at the palace, please reply or pm me if you can help! thanks!! :d

Fake Plastic Android said on the 4th Jan, 2012

$250 each + a gobby and you have a deal.

p1owz0r said on the 12th Jan, 2012

I just realised that Battles are playing Atlas and Tonto, thus making the set different from when I saw them in June - so I bought a couple of tickets for The Metro.

Also it looks like I'm working out of Melbourne on the 31st Jan so I think I may check out the Cage the Elephant show.
