^Thanks buddy! OK I called acer arena about our golden passes the lady I spoke to said the passes won't be ready to pick up until the tour Management themselves drop it in and give the go ahead, but it will happen so I am telling myself not to panic lol |

PM from admin over at IMOC when I asked what is the next step will they contact us?
Sorry, I have no idea. Admin has not explained it to me either, I get HCW also, and have asked for specific details, but have heard NOTHING.
I suggest contacting Admin, I am trying also.
Cheers ALF

INFO on HCW from an IMOC member from Perth:
HCW winners, it appears you check in at the Box Office for your colored HCW sticker.
(The passes are a large coloured sticker – Perth was yellow, which you have to show to get back stage – more on this process later).
OK:
HCW winners… DO NOT show up full of beer, with your pass in tatters, or whooping and acting an idiot. At Perth, a couple of fans had security get heavy with them because of this, and nearly didn’t make it on stage! They do not want any risk of you screwing around on stage, and tell you this in no uncertain terms when they get you out the back of the stage!
Going on for HCW, they hold you next to the keyboard player, who looks like the loneliest guy on earth, shoved back there behind the curtains! Let him out, and make him a full member of the band! Forget this macho nonsense of “we don’t have a keyboard player in metal bands” – you do, and it makes the music better, so give him his time in the spotlight!!
And going on for HCW, I noted the stage covering was on the light brown Egyptian them, not the holographic lines/Eye of Horus theme it looked like in Mumbai. Not sure why that would be… (different styles for different stage sizes?).
Winning HCW also has a price to pay – you have to be at the stage-right entrance during *** (so you don’t get a very good view of that whole song). You are then backstage for all of ***, and the sound backstage is non-existent, and you also miss most of HCW, until you get on the stage itself, so the price of 45 seconds on stage is 3 songs from the show! But it was such good fun to get THAT view of the crowd beneath you, and be right behind Steve and his bass, that I reckon it was worth it! ;D
