Soundwave 2012

[Ball Hog]

Still desperately clinging to the hope that someone sells me a ticket on the Facebook Buyers Event

Got a ticket via facebook

Most psyched for Turisas, Times of Grace & Mastodon

 

[PHX]

Melbourne timetable is up and ENter Shikari has been moved and now clashes with Mastodon. Killer.

 

[mickelboy182]

SOAD clashing with Machine Head and Devin is killer, but for the most part the timetable is pretty decent all things considered.

Still undecided on how to finish the day.

 

[Tex_21]

Drunk?

Fingers crossed for the Radelaide timetable to be out soon.

 

[krisholio14]

Bummed I miss out on BLS and Devin Townsend, but it's better than a thin festival. Never gone to a festival before, but taking it easy early in the day seems wise.

Anyone here heading to the Cathedral/Paradise Lost/Turisas show on the Thursday? Stoked with that lineup, and eliminates some major clashes for me.

You betcha. Cathedral are the only band I was really interested in seeing so stoked there's a sideshow.

[Marklar_33]

Venue maps are now available on the soundwave website.

Can someone link me to these...apparently I'm a blind dumbass

Edit - I found it...I'm awesome again!

 

[Marklar_33]

Sneaky little switch of timeslots between Conditions and Unwritten Law on Stage 3

Anyone know why this has occured...the Mrs is pissed!

 

[MelbourneCrow]

Can anyone confirm that the Metal stage is outdoor. Last went to Showgrounds years ago and think that one on the corner was an outside setting with seats at the back.

 

[Ball Hog]

Ok just about finalised my day for Brisbane

Turisas
Black Tide
Times of Grace
Lostprophets
You Me At Six

Bush
In Flames (1/2) or REST
Trivium

Machine Head (1/2)
Hatebreed
Staind
Slipknot (20 mins)
Enter Shikari
VersaEmerge or LoG

Dissapointed I won't be seeing Alter Bridge and to a lesser extent Coal Chamber & BVB but I really got lucky with clashes, could have been much worse.

 

[Zarrix]

11:00- 11:30 - Turisas
12:00- 12:30- The Black Dahlia Murder
1:00- 1:30- Gojira
If Stage 7 is close to Stage 4, may see half of Dredg
Will probably stay at the metal stage until the end of Meshuggah, then go and eat some food.
4:20- 5:00- Paradise Lost
5:10- 6:10- Mastodon
6:20- 7:00- Probably Dillenger Escape Plan, even if I don't like them that much.
Food again.
Then back to the Metal stage for Watain (Miss Devin, sad )
Then I'll catch the last hour of system.

 

[PHX]

If Stage 7 is close to Stage 4, may see half of Dredg

It is not. http://images.soundwavefestival.s3.amazonaws.com/SW12/MAPS/SW12 Melbourne FINAL.pdf

EDIT: You probably meant Perth. Bit closer.

Looking at everyone's plans so far, Stage 4 will be overflowing with people watching Mastodon.

 

[m!nt]

I went last year and have to say I liked that line up alot better

 

[bombermick]

Would I need to get a stage early to get into the D for the bands during the day? E.g Would I need to miss Lostprophets to see AB, or A Day to Remember for Bush?

 

[Zarrix]

Looking at everyone's plans so far, Stage 4 will be overflowing with people watching Mastodon.

Really should have been on the headlining stage, they are huge nowadays. Even beyond the metal community. Think it might be Slayer 2011 MKII, anyone who was there last year would know the extent of what I mean.

 

[Macca19]

Yeah I thought Mastodon would be a given for the main stage

 

[mickelboy182]

Can anyone confirm that the Metal stage is outdoor. Last went to Showgrounds years ago and think that one on the corner was an outside setting with seats at the back.

Yes, 4a/4b are outdoors. In 2010 it was in the shed thing, but that was reserved for pop punk last year I believe.
