I have a 12 person tent, if I need to, I will fill it with supplies to last me 6+ months and will camp out the front of tickettek or whoever until tickets are released.

The majority of people who go to it are going to be "fans" of the show who see the SBS version, they should have a special show just for the hardcores like us images/smilies/smile.gif (in Adelaide images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

I've just decided that me and two other friends are driving over to Melbourne to see it. I don't care how long it takes or how much it's going to cost, I just want to go!

It was in Sydney's MX too. Plus the story about Richard's crash is near the top of most read posts on the major newspaper sites today.
