"Love music festivals. A great way of experiencing different acts and the atmosphere is always incredible. Things I don't like are the long queues for drinks and especially the ladies room. Why do the men need the same amount of facilities as the ladies? Signing tents are a great plus and I generally fine that no matter how plastered some people are the behaviour is pretty good and believe that is supported by the low number of arrests at these events. Of course the major thing is having the right theme for the festival and sticking with the genre that is promoted."

"The footage I saw of his rehearsals for his upcoming London shows was amazing. Didn't look like there was anything wrong. No doubt those will be packaged up into DVD's and sell like hot cakes. RIP."

"Hi redzgt, Jimmy is support at the Mission Estate Winery concert. He has for the last few years done pub gigs around the country Jan-March. Best place to keep an eye out for announcements is here. Personally have seen him for the last three years he has been here and would be massively keen to go again."

"Absolutely loved the show. Am a huge Coldplay fan. They truly outdid themselves. The standard for the production is now set very high for other acts who play the Vector."

"Went along and had a fabulous time. The ham rolls were great at $7 and alcohol wasn't overpriced. But of course the highlight was winning the trifecta in the big race. My year is off to a great start! Looking forward to repeating my win at another twilight event."

"I'm there with bells on providing I can get tickets. They will hopefully add a second show as these will sell out in minutes."

"This is a great event and it is a shame to see the organisers taking a successful formula and ruining it by charging entry and not allowing BYO. I have been going to this for years and the queues to buy anything are horrendous. I predict they will receive much negative feedback on the day and will have to revert to the old formula. If it ain't broke don't fix it!"

"I haven't seen age restrictions so would guess that it's all ages and you would need id if you want to drink - bit like BDO."

"MCR are playing Vector in December - I have heard their show is amazing. Bella, I think the escape the fate rumour is just a rumour."

"The first weekend away I ever had with my partner we were sitting in the bar at Snapper Rock at Tutukaka and they were playing Dylan's greatest hits. A memorable weekend - seeing Dylan at the Civic would be like having him play to us in our lounge room."

"They already limit the amount of tickets you can buy on a pre sell to 4, so I'm not sure I see the point - seems to me they just hope to make more money out of it. Surely a concert at Western Springs is not the venue to get premiums on - The Police at the Power Station on an auction would draw premiums bids."

"I will gladly consider myself one of the young one's as I was most certainly not old enough in the 70's, but I sure know all the songs."

"Great pictures - don't live in Wellington so missed out - however Crusty Demons was great."

"Apparently Visa Card holders are getting first dibs on this show. Given the capacity of the Vector Arena is 12,000 then most if not all of those tickets will go before they are on sale to the general public. I can only hope that they put on a second show."
