Haha!  I bought my ticket some time last year, basically as soon as they were announced.  Hot-damn, I'm excited.

Also, if anyone's interested the Mountain Goats are returning here in April.  Bonnie 'Prince' Billy is coming in a couple of weeks, I believe.  And Jens Lekman is coming back some time in February or March.  I have a feeling it's gonna be a great year for live music in Australia!

I'm seeing them at the Laneway Festival - I decided it was best to buy a ticket to that, rather than the BSS and some of the other side shows. Well, not so much best, but cheaper. I got my ticket last year too.

The Bonnie Prince Billy show is sold out already in Sydney I think :(

Anyone going to the Brisbane show? They are playing on the same weekend as Karnivool, at the same venue, so that is going to be a goddamned awesome weekend for me :D

Two of my underaged friends are getting into the Laneway festival because one of them is having an underaged affair with the promoter or something. So yeah, I wish I could go, but Alas, no luck.

And since this seems to be a general Aus tour discussion atm, Jello Biafra and the Melvins are due in a few months. Much excitement.

You see the one in Perth? It's exactly a week before I turn 18. I think I've bitched abot this before...
