Ticket prices would be nice.
If it's any more than around $60-ish I'll just wait to no doubt see them at a festival overseas.

 

[Bucko]

$55 plus booking fee I beleive

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Fuck yeah.

 

[Spruce Goose]

Whats the setlist likely to look like?
Is there a lot of songs from Horror Show and backwards, or is it more geared towards post Barlow Ripper, Post Ripper Barlow - New dude?

 

[Spruce Goose]

Horror Show was the last IE album that I bought and listened to

 

[Blitzkrieg]

When I saw them with Barlow in June it was all Horror Show and earlier, bar one song. It was an amazing set, and if they can do something similar with NEWGUY I will be happy.

If Spawn was here this would be a five page thread by now.

I think the Ripper-era songs were more the victim of shit-house production than bad songwriting or vocal ability.

 

[Spiff]

The Glorious Burden was the last one I heard. Didn't mind it, but I lost interest in the band after that.

I MISS HIM.

 

[Southy]

As do I...

Also fuck IE for only doing Melbourne and Sydney. If this has changed I will apologise, but for now...fuckers

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Likewise, fuck Steve Grimmet for not playing Melb. I'd love to see his upcoming tour.

If Spawn was here this would be a five page thread by now.

Most of it would be conservative bigotted hate though.

 

[Spiff]

True that

 

[KoichCPA]

I miss him too, it was fun.

Is he still alive?

Is he still the reason Sydney's trains don't run properly?

 

[Southy]

I am sure he is alive...and probably why trains are never on time, would be nice to see a post/life update from him. Long time now isn't it?

 

[Hanso]

Does anybody know the price of the VIP tickets?

 

[Bucko]

$110.00 usd each plus $11 converstion fee so thats $121 in total ...............
