SYDNEY, Australia (Sony Music Australia) - If you were planning on getting along to WAVEAID at the SCG on January 29, think again...first round tix to the all-Oz star-studded concert have completely sold out! If you got lucky and scored one, check out the running order and stage times here... With an all star-studded lineup including Midnight Oil, Silverchair, Powderfinger, Nick Cave, John Butler Trio, Pete Murray and more, it's no wonder ticketek.com.au all but nearly crashed yesterday when thousands of eager punters logged on to buy tickets to the next week's WAVEAID concert at the SCG!! The concert's first round ticket allocation (nearly 40,000) was completely exhausted within hours of going on sale at 9am and while that might be bad news for fans trying to get them (stay tuned people), it's brilliant news for the collective of Australian charity organisations who will receive equal shares of funds raised from ticket sales, to continue providing aid to the millions of victims affected by the Asian tsunami disaster. For those of you that DID manage to get your hands on a ticket to this phenomenal one-off gig, the on-stage times and running order for WAVEAID are: WAVEAID - Saturday January 29 Sydney Cricket Ground From 2.00pm - 10.30pm.
