bloc party and mgmt are only playing splendour when they come to aus? lameee
the lineup... yea s'ok

actually a few of those will be good to see but not enough amazing bands. i think i'll go see little birdy cos i'm liking their new stuff

 

[hiphophooray123]

cool, since mgmt won't have a sideshow there will be 10,000 more teens trying to get splendour tickets, that's just fucking great.

 

[McLoving]

I LOVE MGMT

i will buy ticekts to be beef for the little girls

 

[Natendo]

Is it over 18s?
MGMT don't have many fans of drinking age do they?

Haha. Pretty sure they don't

 

[Atticus.]

janes adiction :O
lucky im seeing them in europe. they will be A MA ZING at a festival

 

[your.knee]

i got my tickets inc. camping

 

[Zrap]

lucky, still considering it's worthy of 240bucks for tickets hmm plus another 360 among other things

 

[your.knee]

yea it's pretty exxy and it's just gonna keep going up ah

and qjump is going to fail again this year on thurs

 

[hiphophooray123]

i have a ticket wooo, cousin is a local and she had one more purchase left so she got me one

then jezzmo got ashton and another mate one

win win win win win

 

[roadcone]

yessss... got tickets!!

the process was relatively painless this year

 

[L]

guys i dont have a ticket

 

[katietheskatie]

haha fuck i totally forgot

eh didn't really want to go anyway

 

[hiphophooray123]

props to qjump for it being a relatively smooth process this year. i got through easy this morning, and i wasn't even planning on buying tickets because already got a pre-sale one lolz

 

[Rafy]

Didn't get a ticket.

 

[hiphophooray123]

friend sat at his computer for 2 hours with like 20 windows open and we still didnt get tickets.

oh, boo, you should have had like a pre-cognition and asked me because i woke up and got through straight away, was so surprised, i was entering the names of my friends but then got a call that they already got tickets.




splendour for the third fucking year in a rowwwww!!! SO EXCITE!!!

VERY EXCITE

i go to splendour

then 2 days after splendour i fly to new york

then go to all points west at the end of that week

then fly to chicago

then go to lollapooloza at the end of that week

then come home and die


YAY

 

[your.knee]

^ sounds like a good way to die

i am REALLY hoping for animal collective and/or royksopp in second announcement

 

[chamelia]

Royksopp would make all my dreams come true and justify every single hard earned dollar spent. Oh - OH -oh.

 

[hiphophooray123]

2nd announcement came mid-june last year so i assume same for this year.


alot of people think klaxons, i would love them, but ive seen them twice before so if they are announced i hope they arent the 'biggest band' on the line up.

the biggest bands in the 2nd line up last year were the polyphonic spree (who headlined the GW tent on the sat last year) and new young pony club (who were 2nd last in the mix up tent on sunday last year)

so thats the type of calibre we are expecting i guess.

but maybe because its the last year at belongil fields splendour might pull a surprise and make some big huge announcement, hopefully


also alot of talk about eskimo joe being added, makes sense since they have that muslim album coming out/out...they are great live.

also, 'chairlift' was basically confirmed i think. no idea who they are though.
