Bunnings Corio sounds like a great idea. Straight down to Melbourne from there. Dead easy!!!

Or the BP on the freeway opposite Avalon? More space as Bunnings gets full of weekend handy-hacks like me.

Nah, suits me and the better half to go Monday night! At $60 a pop, both shows is a little exxy. Went to the second of two shows last tour, and I reckon we got the better setlist.

The BP is only 10 mins down the freeway if everyone decides to meet there. Just u-turn using the Avalon airport exit.

Just wait on the side of the road near Laverton Gary. Then when you see a group of sexy AU's heading your way gun it and have some legal 0-100 fun!!!

I vote we meet at the BP at Avalon. Big parking area. But if others prefer Bunnings, then I'm ok with that too, both are about the same distance from me.
