I saw rage at one of the earlier BDO's, I didn't realise they had reformed, I guess I've been living under a rock.

Yup, they reformed for a "one off" show, causing people to flock from the world over, spending thousands of dollards for what they thought would be the only chance they'd get to see RATM. Bugger!

Like the metal day out? A huge tent with a sprinkling of punters.
If somebody organised something like that properly though, I'd be all for it.

Hmm this is looking one-sided. Does anyone like the lineup? Are you happy with the money you have spent on your ticket?

Anyone?

I'm happy, I can't wait to see my fav band in the whole world. I would have paid that just to see Rage on their own, so why not enjoy a whole day? The last announcement is pretty terrible but Im just stoked to get Rage. People that don't like the lineup maybe should stop whining, and just not go? Come on guys, its RAGE!

STOLEN BIG DAY OUT TICKETS WILL NOT BE HONOURED

The promoters of the Big Day Out in Auckland have announced that they will not be honouring a significant number of Big Day Out tickets that have been stolen.

The stolen ticket numbers are listed below and can be found online at www.bigdayout.com

As part of the Big Day Out’s anti-scalping initiative for 2008, barcode scanners will be in operation at all Mt Smart stadium gates this year. The concert promoters are warning that patrons with tickets with numbers corresponding to the stolen tickets will be denied entry to the concert.

It is possible that people have these tickets thinking that they have been purchased legally from an authorized outlet. The promoters are therefore urging anyone who has bought tickets in the past four weeks to check their ticket number against the list of stolen tickets.

If you do find yourself in possession of a ticket listed as stolen, you should return it to the place of purchase.

Big Day Out tickets are still available from the following authorised outlets:

Online from www.bigdayout.com and www.ticketek.co.nz, by phone from 0800-ticketek, or in person from Ticketek outlets, Real Groovy and other music stores nationwide.
 
Series numbers of stolen Big Day Out tickets:

000744 - 000750-
007269 - 007270-
011236 - 011237-
028442 - 028450-
032165 - 032166-
032232 - 032235-
032389 – 032390-
032551 - 032552-
032829 - 032850-

Wow, I just had a look at Trademe. So many people selling tickets for more than their face value, which is against the BDO terms of sale. Scalpers!

Hopefully no one is silly enough to pay more than the face value... considering the BDO hasn't sold out yet!

Hahah good call Kraven, if it's not sold out, why would you buy one off trademe?

I suppose there'd be a few people who were nonethewiser who could get trapped I suppose... you'd have to be pretty slow on the uptake though!
