Yeah I'm kinda up and down about it to. Of course I'm stoked that the guys are coming out, hell some countries don't see the band for years. But there are a quite a few pros and cons with the cons outweighing the pros.
Pro:
Blink 182 with a chance of Offspring too.
Massive atmosphere.
Normally awesome hot weather, perfect for Aussie music festivals.
Cons:
Festival sets
Massive crowds (some of which won't take to LP as well as some may think)
Hard to get tickets.
Limited production (so their big video screens and everything would be hard to bring in and use)
Big ticket prices.
Meet and greet and watch show from KMS away from the stage or be up close missing M&G
With me (and a couple of other fans) wanting to go to every Australian show, it wouldn't be as rewarding for us and any other fan of it was Soundwave festival gigs.
