AUSTRALIANS ARE MISSING OUT

[elliotb]

Beastie boys need to get they arses over 'ere mate...over to the land of the croc hunter ("thats not a knife this is a knife", "no thats a spoon" "i see you have played knify spoony before then".) and crazy blond aussies so they can play us a mad concert...we miss out over here... :(

All in favour say "AYE" (y)

[Tzar]

aye; have patience brother, or sister. they'll come here.

[elliotb]

MELBOURNE REPRESENT....

I hope they come... *weeps* :(

And BTW its brother ;)

[minton]

I'm from Melbourne. They'll come here. Don't worry. Hold on for for dates on it though...

[elliotb]

how much do you guys think tickets will be...cos if its over $100 its gonna be hard for me to get tickets...

Im not the richest guy in the world, coming from Belgrave (represent) and all

anyway...

[MaestroDenis]

They have never been to Canberra yet. They better drive pass this time round :)

[Tzar]

they've been to perth last world tour.

here's hoping they come back.

[domshell]

:o
Yes, can't wait to see them again in Sydney!
Hopefully for the big day out..fingers crossed:-)

Come on boys, rock my world!

[Rancid_Beasties]

Wooooo go the south eastern suburbs of melbourne. They'll be here. I'm tipping big day out, and their own tour simultaneously playing smalller gigs. Like how they played the forum theatre last time they were here, maybe they'll play festival hall, the offspring kicked some ass there. My guess tix will cost like 70 bucks. Or go to bdo and get a whole days entertainment for like 100.

[ils]

Im sure you'll get them coming on a tour, at some time or another....
Where would they play their own gig, if not a BDO one?

Rod Laver Arena?
An MCG Extravaganza? (yeah right)
Colonial (oops Telstra) Dome?
(Like Rancid said) festival hall?
The Revolver (now Im pushing it!)

Festival hall, forum, the palace or something, u know that one in st kilda, myer music bowl (metallica played there), Rod Laver unless the already play there for livid. No way will they play MCG, or Colonial. Too big and impersonal. Plus their album and single didn't do as well as they probably should have. So I doubt they could fill the MCG or colonial.

[nickhead]

they'll be here for the BDO and if not then beforehand i'm sure. so just wait a bit and be happy you're in melbourne which, like sydney, will be a MUST on their list for sure (i mean, how could they ever leave out minton-ville??)

as for syd, my guess is they'll play the entertainment centre and whatever the cost i'll be first in line (y)

[phazerkid]

AYE!!!

i have heard rumours of them headlining the big day out!

[Kid Presentable]

Perth's turned into a graveyard for the living lately, no (great) shows recently. Not above heading out to Sydney if one has to...

[hitmonlee]

i wonder where they could play if they came to perth

metros would be wicked
but crowded

[a_rock]

going to metros tonite to see Jurassic 5....should be dope..but beasties will need a bigger place...on their last world tour they played the entertainment centre..but thats almost shut down....did anyone go to their first tour to perth at the berlin? (place on the corner up from metros?) i wouldve but i was like 5 yrs old....

[lgregory]

I was lucky enough to catch the boys back in '99 when they played the Hobart City Hall (Tas). It's hard to believe now when I think about it - we don't get ANYONE down here. Tickets back then were around eighty bucks, so I'm guessing around ninety this time 'round. I can see that I'll be making a trip to Melbourne for the TT5B tour though (it took a petition organised by JJJ to get them down here last time). It'll be cool if they do the BDO.

[scotty]

For mine, I'd love it if they played the Great Northern in Byron. Franti plays there when he's around so I'm hoping there's an outside chance at that. A trip north to Brisvegas is a better bet.

I remember those Forum shows in Melbourne...it was sensational to get that close to them.

i was at j5 too :)

what other options are there?
burswood
ooh
belvoir amphitheatre? (y)

[Beatsie Boy]

I havent heard rumors about BDO, (apart from here) they would go off if they did come.

source?

i heard february


Originally posted by lust
my source are the ppl that have been in talks with them to put the event on, since i posted that.

More than likely they will attach themselves to the BDO tour, rather than an Australian Tour. :(

[scotty]

well, if they do come for the bdo, i hope that they do some individual shows because i dont really want to battle the crowds and heat of the gold coast

[a_rock]

whats going on in the bill?

[Stiggy]

im assuming they will be comoing out for BDO, no dramas ( as long as they do a private show)

[benjiboo]

Aye mate!

[alwynjo]

Did anyone manage to catch the supposed secret gig that they did under the name Quasar in Newcastle at the Cambridge Hotel on their last tour?

I have since moved to newcastle and Ihave heard about this gig - but am yet to actually meet anyone who was there.

did it really happen or what???

[feenstar]

I've heard that Talib Kwali is also rumoured to be touring and I noticed that he is currently supporting the boys in the states. SO maybe they will tour together here also!! AWESOME!! JJJ have been suggesting they'll play BDO. They defiently won't be doing Livid this year as they've cancelled it!!! Did anyone see the Beastie's play Livid '94? Best show ever.

[clarkebarry]

I was lucky enough to see the bboys way back in 92 on the check your head tour. Tickets were $20- and the venue was in the old lion in adelaide (300 cap), the meanies were their support. Bring back the old days!!! Hopefully will see them in the summer and i hope its not with the BDO tour.
bazz

The Beasties need to get thier arses on tour period.

[mewz]

I would love to finally see the Beasties live!

I would go to see them at BDO and at a solo show, for double Beastie pleasure :cool:

[Rancid_Beasties]

Hopefully the boys will do a simultaneous separate tour whilst going around with the bdo crew. Preferably at smaller venues, so that only die hard fans go, and so they dont play only their popular stuff, but their awesome stuff. Much like goldfinger did when they toured with livid last year (their kind of the exception to the touring rule though because they hold the record for most gigs in a year :p )
