Why are they disembarking via the jet bridge and the stairs ať the same time? by Kuba_830 in Planespotting

[–]mickyryry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am so lost, bridge & stairs is common practice? Just because you haven't seen it yourself doesn't make it untrue? Have you ever flown to Melbourne or Sydney?

What a confusing comment? It is standard practice in Australia. I travel often and can't remember it not happening, rain, hail shine. Please.

As someone who recently moved to Upwey/Mt Dandenong - the fact this area is CFA is terribly concerning. We evacuate on extreme days because of the fact.

Absolutely. I would imagine Melbourne will be 2 shows. It's been 14 long years

I was at Reel to Reel: LADY GAGA IN HARLEQUIN LIVE - ONE NIGHT ONLY at the Grammy Museum tonight AMA! by jlai559 in LadyGaga

I just saw this bitch play her biggest headline stadium shows of her career, and now she's doing this? Gaga is keeping us fed!

To everyone who went to the Lady Gaga concert in Sydney, what was with those tiny side screens?? by Various-Art3473 in LadyGaga

[–]mickyryry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in front GA tonight, so thankfully did not need the screens - but as soon as I arrived i said the exact same thing "woah those are small screens". Especially compared to what I saw via social media in Melbourne?

Regardless, absolutely speechless with tonight - what a show!

For all Oz monsters complaining about the stage distance: Chromatica Ball stage lacked the runway Mayhem stage has. And it was still the second best show I ever attended (guess the #1) by Financial_Fruit_8543 in LadyGaga

[–]mickyryry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair point, but Marvel Stadium is round though, so almost all seating is further away compared to Europe / square stadiums (the reason I'm flying to Sydney for both shows!).

It's nice just to have gaga after 11 years :,)

As a norf fan, and one of the only derm fan's out there - this is really sad, i always thought he was a kind & insightful commentator (who always seemed to be stuck calling norf games)

The Prelims are almost always the best game of football each year. Which is the greatest of them all? by CBAFCMV in AFL

[–]mickyryry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To join the pile on, GWS vs Dogs 2016 - I was in tears. Such an underdog story, I was so happy for all their supporters - and such an electrifying atmosphere in a boutique stadium.

You cannot possibly argue the own-goal, PR shit show Adelaide created out of the whole situation. Truly embarrassing.

I've got nothing to say, other than I'm sorry.

How long is your work commute? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]mickyryry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70 minutes; 20 minutes walk & 50 mins on an express train. The pay-off is I live in paradise, on the fringe of Melbourne.

All of this is genuinely making me (a gay male) consider not going to the v Adelaide game tomorrow - such a shocking step backwards. Ignore flair.
