Details for Sunday @ SunCorp

Please check this post for updates at least Saturday & Sunday morning

Car parking
There are 6 x car park spots in radio Lollypop’s car park for Remko, Trailer, Dale, Patty, and Claire.
This car park is directly opposite the stadium at the Inform building, 67 Castlemaine street. A volunteer will open the gates to let you guys in. do NOT enter without the event staff being present....THIS HAS TO HAPPEN....
All vehicles must be at entry gate at 2.30pm....to be admitted.
Entry, Accreditation and Game Tickets
All drummers will receive their accreditation and game tickets at the one time. This time will be at 2.40pm at the radio lollypop car park. Each drummer will receive 2 tickets to match. (The six with the Orange Army will be given 3 or 4 tickets to ensure we have room for your drums and yourselves. You will be sitting in three groups of two about 2 to 3 metres from each other).
All drummers will enter stadium via security control gate and be escorted by an event staff member to Band Room.
Band Room
Chaperone will direct you to our event room (the Band Room)...where your group can leave drums and gear. This event room will still be used by my staff. Valuables can be left in lockable lockers in the room.
From here your game tickets will be processed by scanning. You will be shown the only route for movement from Room to Field, Room to Plazas and Room to their game seats. This will be tightly monitored. We CANNOT have people wandering around back stage...particularly with Foxsports and ourselves producing live football and live television....Security WILL enforce. Can’t stress this enough.
Room will be locked during game...so all drummers are either in their game day seats or with you in Orange Army bay during the match. If they wish to leave after their halftime performance that is okay.
Performances
North Plaza ( Paddington end) Remko's group 3.26pm to 3.36pm
South Plaza (Milton Station end) Jason's group 3.26pm to 3.36pm
Field of Play all 3.47pm to 3.51pm
Orange Army: Remko, Fernando, Jason, Mike, Angus, Martinho, Elwin, Patty/Miki 4.06pm to 4.45pm
Halftime (Field of Play) all 4.57pm to 5.00pm

Please note we will inform all drummers of their route for entering and leaving everywhere on Sunday.
Foot wear
Please ensure that all drummers have closed in footwear...no thongs, no football boots!!
Rider
Water will be supplied for all performances. Limited Soft drinks and sandwiches will be available for both drummers and event staff and volunteers. We will all share.
Friends
Please note that if they are going to give their tickets to friends then we can arrange for these to be picked up by their friends/family from the South Plaza ticket gates......at the ROAR members window. No friends/family will be permitted back stage. We have accreditations for the performers ONLY. WE will not be discussing on the day who gets in and who doesn’t. There will be envelopes for you to place tickets in for friends/family etc.
Exiting venue
When the drummers wish to leave they MUST return to Band Room and retrieve their drums and leave via the ring road under the stadium and out through the security control gate they first entered the stadium through and then onto Castlemaine Street.

You want fries with that? Seriously, I'm a bit confused. If we bring a friend, is their ticket for somewhere in seats elsewhere than in the orange army, or can they sit near the orange army, or is that not allowed?

Good question - I asked that exact same question to Roar - their answer: "All tickets are in the same area, north end near the Orange Army" except for the drummers who are in the Orange Army Den....".

Now of course I don't know what the Orange Army Den is but I wouldn't loose too much sleep on that one.
