Vickmiest has booked out tickets and somewhere to stay. So who is actually going as we should all meet up?

I know that Me, Vickmeist and Capes is going. Who else?


I am, but am not taking the package and am staying with family.

Will be going, but like everything Fever, we'll prbably organise it the week before because we're a shambles.

Reminds me, must chase Palmy plans.

Mate, this is over 6 months away. Plenty of time to sort out stuff later on.

Well, you've got 6 months to make a second trip to Christchurch and check it out for us.
Or failing that, you could search online. ...

... gosh I'm sarcastic today ...

AC/DC concert is on THURSDAY 28th Jan...so why was the game moved???
 
Only thing I can think of is that they might add another couple of dates but I can't honestly see it?

Do you have any idea how long it will take to dismantle the ground from a concert ?

Would've thought a home game on the Sunday would've been possible.
 
Ah well, maybe now I can go to Christchurch as well! Not good times for my wallet though!!

As well as taking ages to tidy up and sort out the stadium after a concert, I'm pretty sure that there was a date change for the ACDC concert and it was moved to the Thurs.

 Yes, the date was changed. Because they added an AUCKLAND concert also.

 So the f**king promoter has screwed the Nix out of a home game, moved from a weekend booking to a Thursday, and added an Auckland gig along the way.

 And in regards to cleaning up after a concert, the main worry would be the state of the pitch. I remember pitches in Oz were turned into mud bowls for weeks after New Years events.

Seems there will definitely be a Saturday AC/DC concert if the first one sells out quickly.
 
There was always an Auckland one scheduled btw.

Do they need a house sitter while they are up here? If not, what is their address. I can keep any eye on the place for them and feed the cat etc., while I am down there for the game!

 I'll be down in CHCH mid-August to visit family, so will give me a chance to try out a few of the bars.

 Personally, I think we should get everyone after we win the game, and march to the Holy Grail in full voice :)

One trip to the Village of the Damned in a lifetime is more than enough.
