    This is guaranteed to be the best thing I have ever experienced!

    I sure hope there will be a mosh pit, KSE, Carpathian, all the bands that make concerts worthwhile in one place.

  6. Joe says:

    hey,
    just wondering
    whats the best way to get tickets??
    thanks

  7. luke says:

    you can get 99 dollar early bird tcikets from the site but they might not post till afterwards or might require a second payment, then after 30th october you can buy from both their site and ticketmaster. might be 100-120 or soemthing like that

  8. JOSHO says:

    :)

    Simone

  14. paul says:

    okay thanks darlin
    you gonna be there?

  15. Chelz says:

    Timetable should be out tomorrow afternoon!!
    hit the Soundwave forum to find out more

  16. Ashlee says:

    Is it true that a number of bands have dropped out? Such as Chiodos, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Plain White T’s etc? :o Coz that would suck!

  17. Georgia says:

    Yeah it is true – Chiodos and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus have dropped out; and *sob* so have Boys Like Girls – theyre not coming to Perth as far as i know. But as for Plain White T’s im pretty sure they are still going – ive been looking around the sites pretty regularly for the last week or so and ive heard nothing about them dropping out.
    if they have, thats going to be tragic.
    My only complaint about SW this year is the clashes – its pretty good (timetable can be found at http://www.myspace.com/soundwave) but Plain White T’s, All Time Low and Sugarcult are all on at the same time : (

    Anywho
    Ill see you there!

  18. Simone says:

    Haven’t heard anything about Plain White T’s canceling. And yeah, the other two have. Oh, Boys Like Girls.. yeah, looks like not coming to Perth. Check out the playing schedule, here:http://www.soundwavefestival.com/

  20. Emma says:

    hi =]
    just wondering what time the soundwave in perth, started and finished?

  21. Simone says:

    Not sure… First band played at 11.40am, and last band finished at 10.50pm. Well, that’s what the timetable says.
    I didn’t get there till 2pm, and left at around 10.45 I think.
