Details for Saturday's gig @ SunCorp

I trust everyone had a great night tonight! So let's play with Fernando one more time tomorrow @ SunCorp! It's going to be a big one again, with at least 30,000 visitors!
  • Where: SunCorp Stadium (Reds vs Wanckers)
  • Timetable:
    • 5.15pm I'll arrive with car & trailer, start unloading instruments
    • 5.30pm you guys meet at boom gate, go to dress room
    • 6.00pm - 7.00pm we play at North plaza. Some breaks in between 'sets'. 
    • 7.15pm - ready to play in stadium
    • 7.30pm - kick-off, play during 1st and 2nd half
  • Dress code - use Reds shirts from last time, please wear black pants. I'll still have a few spares for those that weren't there last few times. At the end, you can keep your shirt.
  • No car parking unfortunately except for me and the trailer. The Reds does not have the arrangement with the car park opposite the stadium like Roar, unfortunately.
  • This time, no tickets available for guests, unfortunately. If anyone really needs one let me know though
  • In case of rain we will seek shelter to protect instruments and fragile sambistas.
  • In case of a win, we hang around until the team leaves the field.
  • Rehearsals next few weeks will be free for all! Those people not playing on Saturday can buy me and other performers a beer ;-)
Security procedure - please read:

Because the organisation forgot to block off the seats, we'll play in the North East tunnel (well really in between the tunnel and the field. Because this is an emergency exit, please note the following:

  1. The seats must stay in the formation provided. They CANNOT queue across the full width of the tunnel and must not hinder entry and exit for other suppliers.
  2. They must stay OFF the grass. Once they are in the tunnel they cannot wander onto the grass at all.
  3. All band members must stay with their instruments at all times. (From the Stadium: In the unlikely need to evacuate the venue the tunnel forms part of evacuation path so these need to be clear if in this mode. There will not be time to find the owner of musical equipment if left attended and obstacles of this nature can be deadly when thousands are trying to evacuate). Note from Remko: in case of an evacuation also grab your chair, I think!
