Aussies - how do you find out about concerts?

[Morgan C]

Title pretty much says it all.

Only way I ever really find out about concerts of bands I like are thru forums like this or happening to visit their myspace soon before. Any other good sources?

 

[lilhermiejobo]

I just did a search on TicketMaster Australia and came up with a list of concerts on sale (or going on sale soon)
TicketMasterAustralia-Music
As far as underground stuff its usually word of mouth or browsing forums and etc.

 

[lilhermiejobo]

damn. apparently Fear Factory just cancelled a show in Melbourne for August 23rd. go figure I find out a ticket sales avenue and a band I like cancels

LORD forum on UM has a tours thread, that's where I find out 90% of them.

 

[Styvo]

Beat and Inpress are usually the go for me.

 

[Styvo]

[Harry Hughes]

Beat/Inpress for me too, as well just random internet searches.

Does Ticketmaster serve Australia? That's where I always look here

I saw CC back in '94 (I think) with Barnes on the Bleeding tour. Awesome. That's the only album I liked.

I might have to check out Arch Enemy.

SWR FM 99.9 on Monday nights tells you about all the different concerts coming up, but I find out usually by either Googling on a whim or the various forums.
Cannot wait for Suffocation in November!

Megadeth/Slayer in the fall

I have one of those friends that everyone has whose sole purpose of being is to be the guy who tells everyone about the latest tours, album releases and other such info.

Luckily he's not a dick about it like most of those people so he's good to have around for more than just information.

"Penetrate the minds of those misfortuned at birth.
Murder is etched in the deepest chasms of the soul.
Salvation stripped from the origin of existence.
Obstinacy abandons, as you yield your world to me.

Decree of my darkest dreams.
Memories of my future.
Welcome to my church.

Sodomize my cross for it now marks your existence.
Dismissal of lucivity, consume my body and blood.
Supplicate for death, obscurity condemns the structure.
Spectral abominations, the gathering of souls.

Befall the rise of inhumanity.

Returned to a land you've never been.
You kill again for the first time.
Recollections of what never was.

Decree of my darkest dreams.
Memories of my future.
Welcome to my church.

I am your savior.
Shapeless to your perception.
For I am you, pierced from within.

Pierced from within."

FUCK YEAH, FUCKING BRUTAL!
