oh hooray-on-a-stick for access cards. im so getting my free ticket tomorrow :cool:
Hey I thought that they only gave away 1000 for free. Are they still going? Surely at least a trillion have gotten their access cards. Free is good?!?

Besides, I have a really late lecture too on that day. Hopefully I'll make it there. :cool:

Around midday today the guy who was hanging around the Access tents plugging Beachball was saying that they'd given away roughly 500 of the 1000 free tickets. And it they were selling a lot less Access cards than yesterday - the queue was five minutes or less instead of a full hour - so they might still have some tickets left tomorrow as well.

Damn. I wasted an hour yesterday. Overexcitement perhaps?

Well, well there you go. There should be lots of tickets left. Yesterday 10.30 am, the stall had been running for 1.5 hrs, 50 tickets had been given away. The rate of "disappearance" of tickets decreases. You do the maths. Will you be in time to get them?

It says Here that it's free for ACCESS card holders. So even if we forget our tickets?

Hey, good luck with this. I hope you do make it there. If all fails, then I'm sorry. You'd have to pay or wait for those ticket scalpers.

* One free ticket per person. To receive a free Beachball ticket you must present your 2007 Access Card at the Beachball stall before 5pm on March 2. Free tickets are strictly limited. A free ticket only guarantees entry to Beachball before 8.30pm.

--

You should have tried the Access office if you couldn't find the stall. I think it might be a bit too late now unfortunately :(

For me and a few others, it'll be our first time going to an 18+ event. :)
I hope that nobody minds me asking some q's.
1. Anything you can and can't wear? Is there a place to drop our bags and jackets and stuff?

2. At what times are the queues the longest? At the very moment the doors open or later at night (when work/uni ends)?

3. How crowded is it?

Other than that, I'd have to experience everything myself then.

7 pm to 2 am it happens. Get in before 8.30 that's all I know.
Don't you have uni the next day?

If you're a dude wear closed shoes and long pants. Apart from that pretty much anything goes in the casual to smart casual range.

Depends when it opens, but usually around 7-8pm.
3. How crowded is it?
Very. You'll often have to line up to get back onto the top floor.

No 3/4-ers? No shorts? They count as casual. As I said, I'd go there and find out for myself .

Who the fuck wears 3/4s?

And it's at a fucking bar at night, wear shorts if you want, but you are running the risk. You will also look like a gimp as everyone else will probably be wearing dress jeans or the equivalent.

And why would he say "long pants" if he meant "Long pants, shorts and 3/4s".

Sorry to flame, but damn, use your head.


And I didn't get a fucking free ticket. Fuck, now I have to pay.
