I went to sound wave last night too. It was soo good. My fav was system of a down, they were so good and slipknot put on an awesome show. I wasn't disappointed with Manson. He is who he is and he put on a good show. I really don't think he was doing drugs on stage nor do I think the stuff the person licked off his hand would have been cocain. Just a bit of fun. But he did look like he may have had some before the show lol.
But defently an awesome day and I'm glad I wore my gumboots:)
 
Yeh see we thought it was fake too, until he stumbled over and cut off by his own band and kept walking off before he finished. But it is Manson so I wouldn't put it past him if it was real. He's been known for that haha and System sounded absolutely perfect, there's no way to explain it :)

Yes be excited! :) and I was a tad disappointed that Manson couldn't finish a song and took ages to get to his last one, but I'm still stoked I saw the weirdo :)

Oh the only real thing I was really bumbed about was all the Bundy Rum advertising at the bar just to discover that they didn't sell any Rum! Grrr! Oh well, any alcomahole is better than none! :D

Was so good. Wish I could do it again lol. And I thought it was a good atmosphere too, everyone seemed pretty happy. Guess we will never really no if he was really doing drugs on stage lol but I did like it. Wasn't the best but was still good :)

Yeh just like EVERYTHING that Manson does, we'll never know for sure, it's just a Manson thing to do to stir crap :)
Yeh it's generally pretty easy to make new friends there, best part about it :D
 
Holy Carp! SOAD, Slipknot, Hatebreed, Meshuggah, worth it for those 4 alone! Not to mention Coal Chamber, hadn't realized they were back together. Thats's a helluva a list! What are tickets going for?

EDIT: After further examination of the original post, I just died a little inside. :(
 
Aww maybe next year mate :( was definitely worth the odd $180 I think it was? You could check if those bands have side waves?
 
I just got home from Sydney and Manson sucked here as well. It's not even anything to do with drugs that he may or may not have been doing. He has just lost it in recent years. Anyone who saw his performances on or before the Golden Age of Grotesque tour would have to agree with me. The only good thing about his set was the number of girls who were topless by the end of it.
Gotta say Limp Bizkit put on a surprisingly good show and their little tribute to Jessica Michalik earned a bit of my respect. System and Slipknot definitely killed it though. I can't wait to see Slipknot again tomorrow night
 
Well Manson did one better there, there were zero topless girls in Brisbane! But I guess I'm a girl and I wouldn't wanna get mine out in the cold and rain haha! But what I did forget to mention was that as soon as he came on stage bats started flying over the stage - a sign? Haha!

And I've never been a major fan of Limp but they were surprisingly good here too, and it's nice to know that they care about their fans, even if her death was so long ago.
 
Hahaha yes most of that is true. I was looking for something about his performance too and what was said!

But I was in the Slipknot crowd and people were loving him, from where I was I thought the boos were because he was talking about loving male genitalia or something, I thought he must have insulted the crowd, the camera zoomed in on one girl in the crowd and she didn't look impressed.
Do you know what I'm talking about Ally and do you know what happened there? And yeh there looked like heaps of arguments and he was giving his assistant the bird at one stage in a song. He almost seemed like he hated being there. The camera would black out after each song because he kept going backstage. And we waited ages for the last song which just so happened to be 'the beautiful people.' I don't think you could pay me enough to be in his band, they wouldn't have a clue what's going on!
Oh well, maybe it was all part of the entertainment :)

Oh and Slash came out and played the final song with Alter Bridge. I'm a little ashamed to say I was there to Watch Alter Bridge but at the same time that was a very cool surprise[/QUOTE]

Awww whaaaat? I skipped alter ridge to visit the bar but that would have been cool. Oh well doesn't even matter, I saw Slash last year ;)

Oh and I don't think his career is dead because he's doing a few side waves and a mate went to one in Brissy the night before and said it was good. Apparently he's meant to be releasing a new album this year too? I think people were just a bit disappointed of the overall show, he just look like he had the energy to be bothered. I think he still has it though, it'd be tough with a crowd waiting for Slipknot!

EDIT: didn't have the energy* excuse the rushed typos.

Good ol’ soundwave. I think my highlight of the day was being accused of smuggling vodka in my SEALED!! Water bottle by a very rude security guard. After stating its impossible because I don’t work at Mount Franklin and nor do I own a bottle packaging company he said it was possible and I had to pour it out or he would kick me out. So I followed his instructions, poured it out on his feet and continued on with my day of paying $17 for subway, seeing a horrible set by manson & terrible sound at many stages I attended. On the plus side, I didn’t get sunburnt!
 
Yeh they changed the rules for BDO and Soundwave over that, so stupid! Yeh nobody checked my bag, pockets or ID when I walked in, they handed me an 18+ band and that was it!
