Concert arrival time for Melbourne?

[Steph B-P]

Hi,
With Foos coming to Melb Jan 30 2018, doors open at 4pm, what time should I start lining up for a good GA spot?
Also, when do they have sound check normally and how long after the show do they leave?

So long as you get there before lunch, you should get a decent spot either right along the front barrier or on the catwalk (which gets used quite a bit so it's worth holding out for that).

Your chances of meeting them after the show are slim to none because nowadays with the stadium shows, they tend to load into the vans at the loading bays within the venue and go right out without stopping. Rami used to come out during the WL tour but now that he's a fully-fledged member and runs his own little after-party space, that's probably stopped.

Thanks so much for your reply, great help! I am planning on getting there by 12pm so sounds like I should be fine.
