I'm determined to see the Sydney shows. Never been to Australia, if anyone has any travel advice - on general customs, hotels, rental cars, how the gigs are there, please chime in. I'm fookin' clueless on everything Down Under, but I'm thinking it'll be a mega time. And also, I don't have tickets yet, if anyone has ideas about that, please post them. Brokers, scalping, etc. Thanks. (If no one else here knows about this stuff, no worries)  |

advice...
hmm... DONT COME! WE GOT ENOUGH FOOKIN IMMIGRANTS THANKYOU VERY MUCH!
haha nah jk.
im from oz. i live in sydney and are goin to both the shows.
it will be good man. lots of poms in sydney so u will feel at home + better weather.
the hordern pavilion (where the gig is at) is typically a rock venue. it holds about 8,000. its where coldplays dvd was filmed. ive been there heaps of times (coldplay, chemical brothers, prodigy, velvet revolver, powderfinger). its a top venue. and its close to the city too. and good public transport all around. if you want. u can add me to msn and we can chat more about it. scott_tj85@hotmail.com.
i work in the city everyday and its mega. you will love it
...now i just gota go collect some cash from sydneys tourism board for all that plugging. haha.
nah... its a normal city. as good as london. paris. new york. that sorta thing. and its a billion times better than melbourne!

You can still get tickets for the Perth show with the Foo Fighters and Kaiser Chiefs. Tickets are only about 30 pounds so it's a good deal.
Otherwise just get a direct plane ticket to the Sydney shows and stay at backpackers for a few nights. If you need any more help, shoot me a PM and I'll give you some more tips.

Don't bring in any bird products and you'll be fine
Also bring a ton of sunscreen , it's starting to heat up
