Okay, so it looks as though I'll be going to Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney. Now the fun part of booking flights and accommodation can begin...

I was asked by the Dr some questions, on the spot all i came up with was ... Are they still recording the next EP in October which he answered and also the choice behind Disarm karaoke. So yeah, that was kind of fun Also his love of Chris Lilley is pretty great.

good work sunky!
the zero karaoke story was interesting
also, sounds like good news for NZ residents (i'm sure a lot of them could use some about now)

I mentioned it in another thread but Lapis (who has done some great bootlegs of recent shows) is thinking about flying to Australia for the shows here. This is one of his recent recordings: bit.ly/8ZhECT ...

Does anyone know if there will be "standing room" available for the perth show or is it all reserved seating? Can't rock out in a seat. Pumpkins coming to Perth................. oh yeah!!!!!!!!!!! Perth is entirely reserved seating, unfortunately. It's a bit horrible, but hopefully if you get in quick when tickets go on sale, you may be able to grab some great seats (not too great though - sunky and I need somewhere to sit too! )

does it really matter seats or not? aslong as people stand i reckon its fine, there was no moving at all from anyone last tour, so its not like theres a mighty mosh thats going to be missing. (aslong as you get good seats when buying tickets ) for me its just melbourne this tour, and in the balcony

It is always awkward standing when there are seats, it is like ... there are seats 'right there' ... anyhoo. I'm sure it will be fine.

As far as I can tell, Ticketek's seating allocation is all over the place. We're about Row E, and I even tried a few times to see where else I could score tickets and it was everywhere from row DD on the very side to FF and G! Very strange system.

Brisbane pre-sale ticket allocation has been exhausted. If you're still after a ticket for the Tivoli show, try on Thursday 16th at 12 midday (AEST) when tickets go on sale to the general public. Also, these guys are supporting SP on the Australian tour: www.myspace.com/cityriotsBand called City Riots from Adelaide. I'm not sold on them... then again I hated Faker before the Melbourne show.
