Neil and I can cover Halifax MC either through Sobeys or the MC boxoffice. I've got the cash for enough tickets for us all. So 6 tickets in total? Neil, myself, Jamie, Jamie's GF, Rory and your fiancee (Tammy?)
TigerTheLion we can hook up with you also when you're in town. Were you getting tickets on your own? Let us know your plans. Be cool to meet you.

That sounds good...I say we hit the Sobeys. I don't have a credit card so I can't use the presale online, but I didn't want to anyway.
Can somebody hazard a guess - shows, gas, whatever else - what the total might be? Divided by six it won't be harsh but I would just like to know since I've never road-tripped a concert before. Also, I assume we're not staying in Sydney, right? Will we leave Halifax on the 4th, hit the show, and come back to Halifax overnight and sleep during the day and hit the show that night?

Good to know...this all sounds fine! It helps to be going with people who've done it before. I guess I'll let you guys hammer out the finer points and then I'll just hope I get time off work. It's too bad the 4th-5th is a weekend because I usually work 36 hours on a weekend...hopefully I can skip out, and nothing financially pressing comes up so I can give those shifts up without worrying about it.

Tickets will probably be $45 each (estimate) and a room split would be $45 (each). So $150 for the 2 shows and a night in the hotel. Plus whatever drinks/food you want or Hip merch. Better make it $200. hehe.
I can do the onlineor phone for the Metro Centre tickets. Lots of options available to us. Just have to find out the date they go on sale. I'm stoked.

I'd love to take in the 2 shows but it seems difficult. I have a few friends who may want to take in the Halifax show too. I guess I could try to make the Sydney show and then come back to Halifax and hook up with some buddies but I'm not sure how it's going to work out.
Anyway, I don't want to mess up the plans you guys have set.

Does the pre-sale give the same access to good seats as the general sale?

Hey guys, I live in sydney and when I ask around noone gives me a strait answer on when tickets go on sale, I saw you guys got october second, anyone know this for sure or when they go on sale....and also I doubt there will be a pre-sale...there is never one for sydney, and if there was the first ten rows were usually reserved for the public who camp out over night lol, which will probly be me...hope i'm of some help.

Hey Darren et al...
OK, so what's the plan? I'll get the tickets for all of us for the Sydney show online on Saturday morning. Can one of you guys waiting in line pick up four for Jamie and I? Also, I've reserved the hotel room in Sydney for the 4th, and you're all more than welcome to grab some space in the room to bunk. It'll save you some $$. Let me know!

Aw, Neil... that's crappy. But I can certainly relate. It's a shame you can't join us. Will you be going to the Hfx show??
