Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
some mixed feelings about this, due to qjump being sold to moshtix.
however, prior to all of that going down, i did a site inspection of the event venue about 3 weeks ago and i can say with conviction that this year's splendour in the grass will eclipse any of the previous events held at belongil fields. the plans, the changes on site, the surrounding landscape - all of this is going to make this an absolutely epic festival. (let alone the COLOSSAL lineup.)
i seriously cannot wait.

Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
i reckon lineup is snore, but then i'm not really the target audience for this kind of gig.
really i should keep my mouth shut, but history has shown us how unlikely that is.

it will sell out literally in seconds - regardless of price.

Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
might not be seconds, but it will sell out that morning. the camping and ticket price factors will also weed out the wankers.
three days of amazing music. not a bad selling point. 4 bands still to be announced too (and at least 2 of them are MEGA.)

Was thinking the same thing. I'm pretty sure they are not concerned with making it a "fair price" when it sells out every time.shepherd wrote:it will sell out literally in seconds - regardless of price.
I'm more of a side-show person so can't say I care too much.

yeah coz if you can afford a ticket to this there's no way you could possibly be a wankersystem wrote: ticket price factors will also weed out the wankers.
seriously though, it is an interesting point....me and my gf were talking about how different the crowd would be for this as opposed to, well, any other festival in australia, due to how outrageously expensive it is.....she was saying she knows a couple of people who have applied for credit cards and maxed them out just to get to meredith and back, coz they just HAD to go
Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
I don't really think it is THAT bad??
Don't hate me for house
Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
All relative to what you earn I guess
For most people my age, that's a fuckload of money, particularly if you have to travel from Melbourne
ticket- $450
booze- $100 (probably a modest estimate)
supplies- $100
travel- $100 (modest again)

Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
a multiple day festival will always be expensive. the line up that has been booked is also the majority of the price component of the ticket.aroes wrote:yeah coz if you can afford a ticket to this there's no way you could possibly be a wankersystem wrote: ticket price factors will also weed out the wankers.

i don't understand why people are complaining so much. this is by far the biggest lineup at any australian festival that i've ever seen. sure, glastonbury and coachella have bigger lineups, but they're: a) in the northern hemisphere (the promoters can save the majority of the artists' transport costs); and b) getting crowds of ~200,000 people (which gives the promoters huge economies of scale which can then be passed on to the punter).

fair point. making punters camp will do much more for the quality of the attending audience.aroes wrote:yeah coz if you can afford a ticket to this there's no way you could possibly be a wankersystem wrote: ticket price factors will also weed out the wankers.

Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
lol modest indeed!
try at least $300 for flights
$600 for booze and the rest
$300 for food & camping supplies
would easily be a $1500 weekend imo.
FUCK THAT.

Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
i don't think it's that expensive ... $450 ... let's say you blow another $1-1.5k on getting there and food etc ... $1.5-2k ... for 3 days it's pretty good considering the entertainment.
Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
I think it's reasonable tbh.... just not in my budget nor a priority.
Re: 2010 Splendour in the Grass- siiick lineup and it's in Q
100 bucks I'd consider it... maybe... still too much really

You would pay only $100 for that line up?
That's wishful thinking.
I don't think it's expensive - I think it depends on what value you put on experience.
