Crap I did! Cheers man.

cannot wait for BDO Melbourne. Going to be so good.

I went to Soundwave in '09 and '10 but after that, the lineup got progressively worse for me.

Ugggggggghhhhhhh, why do all the TGP shows have to be 18+?
Poor ol' BDO. I'm hoping that the only way it can go from here is up.
