lucky you!
Colezy
09-30-2008, 11:07 PM
No worries!
It's now decided that instead of moving to Melbs on Jan 31st, I shall wait another week haha. That way I'll also be here for my brothers 19th birthday (which is the day of MS).
Woo!
Sarah
09-30-2008, 11:10 PM
Those VIP tix look mighty inviting!
Colezy
09-30-2008, 11:26 PM
Do they ever!! I think I could almost forego the idea of a new camera lens I asked for as joint christmas/21st present!
It's a slightly cheaper option too! haha
I wonder how many people would fork out for it? I know that I could have done with a VIP pass for Soundscape!
Sarah
09-30-2008, 11:36 PM
Yeah, I reckon it'd be the only way I'd Michael to another festival - but then that'd be $700 gone! But then I don't know if I'd want to do the VIP thing by myself. And even if I did, I'd leave to be in the TLE mosh anyway :p
And I didn't realise that it had moved locations. I'm not a huge fan of the showgrounds, the first MSFest had the best location I thought.
So loving that they're playing this and not falls!
Colezy
09-30-2008, 11:45 PM
Yeah, the first year was good...2007 was ok..I didn't have any complaints anyway. Plus it was REALLY close to where my mate and I stayed :p
Sarah
09-30-2008, 11:58 PM
Oh, and this time I'm staying I Launceston. I think I'd be pushing my luck if I didn't. Two times I shoulda slept up there but drove down, and two times there were big accidents on the highway...don't want the third one to be me!
Colezy
10-01-2008, 12:01 AM
haha yeah i remember when we drove back from TLE's gig...stupid Woolworth's truck! :p
Sarah
10-01-2008, 12:15 AM
yep, and worse was the Crusty truck...
All_torn_down16
10-01-2008, 06:01 PM
That's awesome news and it actually applies to me!
My aunty/uncle/cousins are moving to Launceston soon and so I might be able to visit them and go to this :D Nicole and Sarah, I may just see you there! We shall see what happens :)
Sarah
10-01-2008, 06:05 PM
Ooohhh, that'd be awesome! Forumers never come to Tassie for TLE gigs!
texzephyr
10-01-2008, 06:14 PM
YAY!!! now i jus gotta find cash 4 tix and a way to get there... :p
...still another 4 months to wait tho...
All_torn_down16
10-01-2008, 06:14 PM
Ooohhh, that'd be awesome! Forumers never come to Tassie for TLE gigs!
A bit like Adelaide haha. It would be great if it works out, I'd love to visit my family there and a bonus would be seeing TLE + forumers!
Sarah
10-01-2008, 06:16 PM
YAY!!! now i jus gotta find cash 4 tix and a way to get there... :p
...still another 4 months to wait tho...
I think they're doing buses from everywhere. Tix - Christmas present!
sorted! :p
texzephyr
10-01-2008, 06:20 PM
I think they're doing buses from everywhere. Tix - Christmas present!
sorted! :p
score lol or i'll jus go in with my cousin... :D
not that impressed with the rest of the line up except for faker and the dukes and $85's a lot of cash for me... could be towards a new guitar which i need badly... oh well i've never been to a TLE gig so i'll have to do this.
All_torn_down16
10-01-2008, 06:36 PM
It's definitely worth the money seeing TLE alright!
Sarah
10-01-2008, 06:56 PM
yeah, it's another meh line up for me too. Looking forward to seeing Josh Pyke again though :)
Colezy
10-01-2008, 07:15 PM
Ooohhh, that'd be awesome! Forumers never come to Tassie for TLE gigs!
Shannon? Lauren? Remember them? :p
I mentioned the VIP ticket deal to Mum this arvo and told her how it was cheaper than the camera lens I wanted and I think that she's thinking about it :D haha. It's great having xmas/my birthday so close to each other!
Sarah
10-01-2008, 09:07 PM
who? :p
haha, except for them!
Sarah

Hey Lowee,
Coming to MS Fest?
Deadcat Kaye
10-03-2008, 12:33 AM
If Stray Cats wasn't like....a week after this festival then I would so totally go!
See how the financial thing pans out XD
Kacky
10-03-2008, 02:00 AM
Hey Nicole, bring me to Tassie! :)
Colezy
10-03-2008, 12:14 PM
Ok!!! :p
Lowee - you should come to this and I can actually meet you this time!
All_torn_down16
10-03-2008, 06:14 PM
Just wondering, do the tickets usually sell fast for the MS Festival?
Colezy
10-04-2008, 04:17 AM
Depends on who is headlining. I'd say that cos you've got TLE, Gyro and The Presets, then yeah this one will sell pretty fast!
All_torn_down16
10-04-2008, 01:00 PM
Alrighty, thanks for the info Nicole :)
Sarah
10-07-2008, 03:49 PM
Nicole did you get the email about tomorrow ticket sales?
I really want to do the vip thing but don't want to go by myself. who's gonna come with me? :p
Colezy
10-07-2008, 04:22 PM
Yeah I did! I am def getting VIP. So is a girl from work (she loves TLE too :p)
Sarah
10-07-2008, 04:37 PM
cooooooool
Sarah
10-07-2008, 11:07 PM
Love the new tHread title.
Okay, so I know how lame this is going to sound...
But, I really really want to do the VIP thing. But we really really really can't afford it, cos it'll be getting close to $500 (tix, acc, petrol, merch) just for one crappy festival (and for the first time in years, I really really don't actually have money). And if i'm gonna spend $500 on a show, i might as well have flown to Melby/Sydney for the WN tour (an actual headlining proper gig). And I have to be honest, besides the fact I'm over festivals and the sound of avoiding the masses, lounging on deck chairs and sipping cocktails sounds awesome, the main reason is cos I want to chat to the boys in my home state. And if I'm realistic about this, they're playing last, so chances are they're not going to be in the VIP area anyway. But if I don't buy the tix then they'll definately be in there (and will be super jealous of Nicole if they are :p ). And then that just pisses me off even more, cos by then it'll be 11 years and even though it's super lame all I want to do it have one good chat with them, then maybe I can let all this go.
erg, blergh, poop.
Yeah. Took 11 years, but I let it go.
I'm pulling for ya Bob! lol
Sarah
10-08-2008, 08:30 AM
thanks May!
well, i'm going to get one of each ticket and decide what i'm doing at a later date.
Nicole, if you want me to chuck one on the ol' credit card for you too let me know :)
Sarah
10-08-2008, 08:38 AM
$500 later...
woot got my tix!
Colezy
10-08-2008, 01:33 PM
Got my ticket too! :)
I didn't realise that you could pay via paypal though...I had enough in the bank to pay that way cos my pay from work went in this morning. Gah.
Thanks for the offer though, Sarah!
*edit - Just as I was typing that I was waiting for the 'receipt' page and it fucking timed out. Now I don't know if my card has been charged or not?
Kacky
10-08-2008, 01:36 PM
Ah, that sucks.
Sarah
10-08-2008, 02:13 PM
that's sucky. Is commonwealth being more cooperative today??
Colezy
10-08-2008, 02:16 PM
Yeah it is. But my card charges never show up until a day or two later :p
Colezy
10-08-2008, 02:18 PM
Oh and, yes. Nice title change :p
Sarah
10-22-2008, 05:44 PM
Hey Nicole, our tickets are on their way!
Kacky
10-22-2008, 07:50 PM
Sweet! Did you get me one? :p
Sarah
10-22-2008, 10:04 PM
Chelsea, if you can get here you can have my VIP ticket :)
Colezy
10-23-2008, 12:41 AM
Oh awesome!! :D
Kacky
10-23-2008, 10:57 AM
Chelsea, if you can get here you can have my VIP ticket :)
Sweeeeeeet!
Chelsea, if you can get here you can have my VIP ticket :)

Hai, how did you know!? :p
Kacky

;P
strahanie
10-23-2008, 01:04 PM
That May n i are sitting our on the verandah in our rocking chairs all bored and the only thing to talk about is "Gees that Chelsea girl is crazy", "well you know Canadians..."
:p
Colezy
10-23-2008, 01:07 PM
I thought it was just another fact of life! :p
Sarah
10-23-2008, 10:10 PM
i can't believe neither the vip or regular tix for this haven't sold out yet. how am i meant to sell mine if you can still buy them?!?!
Nicole, i kept checking the mail today to see if our tickets had arrived...it wasn't until i was at the Norky roundabout at 7pm tonight that i realised today was show day and a public holiday :p
Colezy
10-23-2008, 10:15 PM
haha, you dag :p
Kacky
10-24-2008, 05:20 AM
She's just a Tasweigan! :p
Sarah
10-24-2008, 03:48 PM
well, my tickets arrived. Nicole, yours will probably be on Monday.
they're pretty! i'll post a pic later :)
Colezy
10-24-2008, 04:18 PM
Their tickets a few yrs back were pretty too.
I like pretty tickets :p
Sarah
01-20-2009, 09:10 PM
18 days or something like that.
GA tix online have sold out. Now I can finally sell mine! :p
VIP tix are still available.
haha, so can't be arsed going to another festival.
Ben reed
01-20-2009, 09:24 PM
ill go for you if you cant be arsed!
Sarah
01-20-2009, 09:48 PM
well if you want to buy my VIP ticket for a discounted forumer price it's all yours.
Ben reed
01-20-2009, 10:01 PM
im listening...
Colezy
01-20-2009, 10:05 PM
Awww, Sarah!!!
I think I am getting more excited cos I have my photo pass as well...but still, I'm fairly pumped for it :)
Sarah
01-20-2009, 10:08 PM
im listening...
well it was bought for $385...the forumer discount isn't massive!
Ben reed
01-20-2009, 10:10 PM
thanks for the offer but ill be right!
Colezy
01-22-2009, 07:31 PM
Sarah, are you still planning on selling your regular ticket? A guy from work is after one :)
Sarah
01-22-2009, 07:42 PM
I am, but I'm not sure if I have a buyer already or not...i'll probably know tomorrow.
Colezy
01-22-2009, 07:47 PM
Cool. I haven't told him that I might be able to get him one, so let me know and if you don't sell it, i'll let him know about it :)
Ben reed
01-22-2009, 10:40 PM
i just had a good look at the lineup for this
im impressed!
Sarah
01-23-2009, 08:34 AM
yeah, these guys always have a good lineup.
Their first one had Grinspoon, Shihad and Rouge Traders amongst others.
A couple of years later they had (from memory - but i might be putting two years together here...) Silverchair (which was when they weren't really touring) and got Spiderbait out of retirement!
Sarah
01-25-2009, 02:17 AM
Crap. There's like no accommodation left in Launceston.
haha.
Kacky
01-25-2009, 06:28 AM
Just rent a shaggin' wagon and sleep in the back of it!
All_torn_down16
01-25-2009, 12:37 PM
So...I was originally going to go to this while I visited my relatives over in Launceston. But now I'm arriving on the day of the festival so there won't be any time to get to it. At first I was a bit annoyed, being so close to seeing TLE once again, BUT I still have the BDO and the Clipsal so that will be enough anyway!
Sarah
01-25-2009, 08:15 PM
But TLE wont be on until like 11pm!
Sarah
01-25-2009, 08:16 PM
Just rent a shaggin' wagon and sleep in the back of it!
I reckon a sleeping bag in the Honda is going to have to do the job!
All_torn_down16
01-25-2009, 08:25 PM
But TLE wont be on until like 11pm!
As much as I'd love to go (really, truly), I wouldn't want to wake my relatives up to pick me up from it, and that's the only way I could get back to their place unfortunately. But I hope you and Nicole have a great time though, and when I get back home I'll get to read your reviews on it/see photos so that's cool.
Sarah
01-25-2009, 08:29 PM
nawww.
Well where ever your relatives live I can always pick you up/drop you off in my car/hotel room if you change your mind. (and I've got a spare ticket that I'd rather a forumer have too)
Turns out a chick from work is going to this too, so yay for more people I know going to be there :)
Two weeks!!
All_torn_down16
01-25-2009, 08:36 PM
Well that is very kind of you Sarah! I wish I could say yes, but still I'm going to have to skip it :( I hope you can sell the ticket to someone who will get a lot out of it! Will you be hanging around Launceston or going straight back to Hobart?
Sarah
01-26-2009, 08:59 AM
Probably straight back to Hobart unfortunately. (Hobart sucks :p )
All_torn_down16
01-26-2009, 10:25 AM
Ah, oh well. At least you get to take a small trip away!
Colezy
01-27-2009, 12:48 PM
Sarah I'd invite you to stay with me there, but it looks as though I have to put up with my brother AND his THREE friends for the night as well as the car trip :( They "forgot" about accommodation! Grrrr.
Kacky
01-27-2009, 12:49 PM
Haha, proof that boys are dumb, eh?
Sarah
01-27-2009, 05:46 PM
thanks anyway Nicole. I'm not worried about accommodation for myself though, just that cos I was heading up there and had a spare ticket the boy and I were going to indulge up there for a couple of days.
I hate it when even money can't buy you what you want! :p
Sarah
01-29-2009, 10:04 AM
Don't know if this is in the paper today, but it's on the Mercury's page...
click me for full article (http://www.themercury.com.au/article/2009/01/29/52231_entertainment.html)
``It feels like it has been ages [since we came to Tasmania] actually, we're really looking forward to it,'' Owen said. ``We've always had great gigs in Tassie.
``I remember way back in the early days, even before our first record came out, we'd only travelled interstate a few times but every time we came to Tassie we got some of the best crowds we'd played to outside of Melbourne.''
haha, for once it's only been a year since their last visit! :p
Colezy

egh I can't believe you're going to see The Presets...
Sarah
01-29-2009, 11:25 AM
I'd prefer to miss them, but they're on before TLE so can't do much about!
mel_bound
01-29-2009, 11:27 AM
I WANNA SEE THE PRESETS AND THE LIVING END!!!!!!!! D:
yep
Colezy
01-29-2009, 12:03 PM
I had no choice but to watch/listen to them when they played at my work, but I actually liked it. Sorta looking forward to them. Plus they usually have a good light show, so hopefully I'll get some good photos of them.
I'm starting to shit myself about being a photographer there..haven't done anything this big yet.
Kacky
01-29-2009, 12:04 PM
You're going to get some special shots for Chelsea too, right? :)
Sarah
01-30-2009, 03:37 PM
Just noticed TSOMM are on late too - thought I might miss them! yay!

Sarah
02-06-2009, 12:16 AM
well, it is for me!
but I guess I'll survive while I'm lying on an umbrella-ed deck chair, sipping cocktails in the VIP area :p
Colezy
02-06-2009, 07:27 AM
Haha :p As long as it's not humid and hot, I'm ok with it.
All_torn_down16
02-06-2009, 10:18 AM
That's an okay temperature to be coming too from here where it's still 40!
By the way, in case I'm not able to post this later on, Sarah and Nicole, I hope you have a fun and enjoyable day at the festival! :)
Sarah
02-06-2009, 02:45 PM
Thanks Ellen!
It might be raining tomorrow morning too - yay!
Colezy
02-06-2009, 05:12 PM
Thanks Ellen! I'm in Launnie now using the hotel connection and eating KFC! :p
Sarah
02-06-2009, 05:37 PM
you survived the trip up with the boys then? :P
Colezy
02-06-2009, 05:39 PM
Only just! :p
No air con and lots of trucks and big moving things! FRUSTRATING!
Colezy
02-06-2009, 05:45 PM
Sarah, do you know if we're able to go to/from our cars during the day if they're parked in the VIP parking?
Cos I still haven't heard back from the editor of Sauce, so i'm still not sure if I am photographing tomorrow and want to be able to leave stuff in the car.
Sarah
02-06-2009, 06:12 PM
I'm not sure. I'm thinking not. Because you have to go through backstage to get to VIP, but I'm assuming that we can't just wander around backstage whenever we feel like it. But then again, if you end up with a photo pass, you'd probably be allowed a bit more access than the rest of us. Maybe try contacting the MS doods and see if they can help you out. There is the cloak room, but i'm guessing you don't want your camera/gear left in there!

WHOLY CRAP NICOLE I FORGOT TO CALL YOU!
I was passed out on the couch so quickly after I got home from the fathers...tiring day.
That's ok! Probably wouldn't have heard it ring anyway! :p Sorry!
Wow. What a weekend! Good and bad! The gig itself was great (but no Make The Call!! :() Found Sarah once she arrived, so it was cool to see her again...even if I didn't say all that much! You can blame the lack of sleep/too much sun that day! haha
Chris admitted he was drunk and apologised for any stuff ups! He had a few guitar stuff ups during the first few songs..then again a few bands had guitar stuff ups during the day.
Anyway, spoke to Andy this morning while at a bank in Launnie (getting all the money my brothers friends owed me :p) Didn't get to say much..pretty much just a very quick hello, how's it going/great gig/see you again soon kinda thing!
Got some photos which are pretty shite, got some video, dunno how they turned out though. Our little VIP viewing platform was good cos you could see right over the top of everyone, while still being able to drink and not having to worry about getting shoved or have anyone crowd surf over the top of us!! :D
Setlist was standard...in no particular order
RTA
Prisoner
WSGU
Wake Up
White Noise

Second Solution

How do we know
Moment in the sun.
Ummmm. possibly something else too. But my brain is pretty darn fried at the moment!

Thats like the BDO list minus WOYR and in different order.
Not bad.
Colezy
02-08-2009, 02:54 PM
Oh yeah. That was the other one! :p
But like I said, I can't remember the order. It was hard enough remembering what was played haha
Sarah
02-08-2009, 03:29 PM
Fuck me it was hot - I just sweated from when I got there until the sun went down, yuk!
VIP at a festival = the best thing ever. (Well, the second time round anyway - first VIP I went to I felt like I shouldn't actually be there cos I was just a young one back then)
You could go and jump around for bands, then come back in and get a drink, chill out and freshen up without being surrounded by the masses, or having to line up for it!
Only complaint I have with it was that I think the sunscreen they provided us with had some sort of dickhead magnet in it. Three different guys, all tall and slim, short dark hair and all with black tees wouldn't just get the fuck away from me. Nicole kindly rescued me from one of them (not that she knew that at the time!), thhhhaaaaanks! If one song could describe that part of the festival it would be You Could Have It So Much Better by Franz. "Well I wasn't down,I just wasn't smiling at you, yeah". Seriously, I didn't want to dance for the Presets because, 1. I can't dance and 2. I found them thoroughly dull. And the more you tried to grab my arms and make me move just made me hate them even more. And then, "As I look at you now it seems, That your slapping my back as if it's alright but it's not, I'm trying to get up but you're pushing me down, Yeah, you're pushing me down, So I'll get up on my own..." was the point when the crazy guy next to Nicole and I wouldn't get out of my face or my previously perfect view of the stage, so I jumped onto a chair behind him and then told him to fuck off when he tried to hassle me up there. Tossers. Oh and yes, I know who TSOMM are, I didn't leave VIP and walk to the other side of the festival just to have you give me a hard time cos you think you are the only one who knows who the fuck they are. Boys, psh.
But anyway, Gyro were pretty impressive. Never really got into them before, but they put on a great show. Really, really loved Faker (psh, you can all shut up now!). Hadn't seen them before, so it was a nice refreshing change to all the shit I normally watch. Watching Josh Pyke on the chairs in VIP, under the sun (as hot as it was) was just perfect! Loved that when their set got cut short they had to choose between playing Middle of the Hill and their latest single, and they chose Middle of the Hill - awesome. TSOMM were great, so much fun to watch, would have much prefered it if they got to be on the mainstage and the Presets got kicked back to the smaller stage, but then there probably would have been a glowing fluro riot...
haha, and I was just trying to figure out who else I saw that was worth a mention in this post too...
So yeah, saw TLE too. As Nicole said they were drunk, and they screwed up a bunch, but that was just funny. Nice to hear White Noise and MITS at a big show for the first time. And just plain nice to hear Loaded Gun again. Loved Prisoner (yeah, you can all shut up again), still think its a blast at festivals. Nice change to hear WGSU, even if it was just the regular version. Even HDWK wasn't too bad (and I can't stand that song). But about half way through their set I realised that that was it, I'm pretty much over it, the whole having to go to any length to see them play thing. So I think I'll just chill out a bit and just wait for them to come back and blow me away again. I'm in no rush. :)
EDIT: Oh, and on the festival itself - I thought it was set out really well, with the drunks having their own area. The crowds I experienced were all really good, just having fun and dancing away. Overall about a billion times better than Falls.

I Hung On To The Fence Demanding To Meet Them Or I Wouldnt Move, And Then I Yelled Out To Chris And He Came And Talked To Me, I Was Almost In Tears, He Is Like My Hero And I Had No Idea What To Say And Stuff, But He Signed A Cricket Bat For Me :happy:
I Was On The Fence Since The Band Before Gyroscope Started Playing Till About An Hour Before TLE Started Playing, It Didn't Only Make My Day, It Made My Life:laugh:

The End!
One thing I noticed was that TLE and their crew (Ant, Steve etc) seemed to come across as more professional when it came to getting the stage ready for the gig, during the gig and what not.

Nicole and Sarah, glad you both had a good time! I still wish I'd been able to go to the festival but in the end I found I was exhausted from flying/getting up early so I probalby wouldn't have been able to enjoy it as much anyway.

Hey Nicole, just picked up a copy of the latest Sauce, have you seen it? 1/2 page on MSFest. 3 shots of the crowd, at least 2 shots of Gyro and 2 other random doods I can't name. No TLE, bah :p The writer talked about how good TLE/Chris are though.
You soooooo should have been allowed to do the photo-ing.

No, haven't seen it yet!! Will get a copy when I get back :)
And yes! So should have been allowed!
