Looks like they'll be coming to Perth two days before I turn eighteen. Good timing.

Serious... You look about fifty in that photo

So close... and yet so far.... is there any chance they'll come to New Zealand too?

Probably not, they're not even doin Brisbane

fuck, I can't believe that. hopefully sydney stays up just a little longer...

if anyone's making a trip to sydney for this you might be able to crash at my place if you need to, PM me if this applies to you.

just saw that Melbourne sold out, subsequently thrashed my credit card.

I'm flying down from Brisbane so I'll give you a shout beforehand if my accommodation falls through. Vivid festival at the opera house on the same weekend!

This is going to be epic

wow holy crap am i glad i got in early or what!

echo: sorrrry i only managed to buy tickets for myself and my friends.. if one of them pulls out i'll be sure to let you know! (i don't think this will happen though)

i can't believe it sold out! i've gotta burn up a ton of my albums to give out, heh.

ps. nice avatar, verticalhold!

Thanks! yours exudes delirious optimism

anyone who's going to the Australian tour willing to sit back and record? i have an idea, private message me if you are even if you don't have a recorder

i was thinking about it, but considering this will likely be the only time i'll ever see autechre live i think i'll give it a miss and just enjoy the show.. or something!

Do they usually play in the dark? if so, I won't bring my camera down

Yeah sorry but I am gonna be well fucked up

i would be willing to send my high quality Sony field recorder to someone trusted (the key word here hehe ) in australia who would be willing to capture the whole gig.

It was my dream to meet them after their set and call them autechno :'(

Melbourne is sold out so a friend tells me.

sold out in a day. good work watmm!

ok apparently the ticket sales on the civil society website were presale, and it's only them that sold out - i saw someone say that the general release tickets go on sale today.. so echo, you may have a chance!

.. i still have no idea why it has had no mention at all on the hifi bar website though!

Shitttt here's hoping.

all venues, i'm assuming! which means you may have a chance without a credit card! depending on what your venue's ticket ordering system is like.

.. edit: here you go, echo!

Aussie brethren--lure the soundman to his drowning death in a local billabong and nab some soundboards. Alternatively, when the bass gets going, usher a goat near his feet and give one of the crocs a "pssst" in its ginger beer about it so he won't know what got him from behind.

goat? i'll use a bloody dingo! fair dinkum!

Any word on the length of the sets?

We should have a Sydney WATMM meetup too. There's a bar (or two even) just round the corner from the venue. How convenient

Yeahhh got my ticket! Not gonna make the same mistake twice.
