DOH! :oops:

OK, so I should pay closer attention. But I was told under pain of death. Apparently I needn't fear for my life after all. :D

I'm not too good either - wasn't going to make it originally, then I could, but now don't think I'll be well enough..

I just woke up when I received a txt message to discover I was watching a Harold Holt documentary - looked interesting but I don't even remember starting to watch it!

It's quite bizarre - quite a few people I know have been struck down by some mystery illness without warning. All things going to plan, of course, I shall be toasting the Lantern's success at the Richmond, but at this stage I really don't know.

What do you all look like? :lol: well I guess if I see a group of people with cameras, it must be the S-A group. Ive met Howie, so atleast thats someone I may recognise. Hopefully it wont be crammed full of people.

The Facebook event alone has over 750 confirmed guests.

Not to mention the great weather tomorrow.

I think the "cramming" goes without saying!

Anyway, if others are serious about bringing big cameras and tripods, I guess that makes it easier to see and greet other peeps from this site. Otherwise I might hold up a sign with "Sensation-Adelaide" written on it. Or attach that on my chest. Who knows.

I'll be cramming in there, pregnant wife in tow.

It is so awesome to see so many people interested in this, bring back some town pride. I've been to other cities but Adelaide has something special, lets treasure it.

Enjoy tonight ladies and gentleman, the forecast is fantastic for it.

Hi guys,

Does anyone know when they actually flip the switch tonight? I know all the posters say 7:30pm, but i'm sure it's going to be a bit later after that... any info would be greatly appreciated.. Does anyone know officially when it starts? i've seen some 'rumors'...

Cheers,
James.

Hi James,

I've heard Official launch will commence at 8pm so just after I would assume.

Like I have said, the button will be pushed at 8:15.02 ;)

Music will be playing before this, Coffee stand will be available for the coffee drinkers out there. There will be an alcohol venue to attend to after, but whether this is only for fusion members...I am still not sure.

Thanks Ben,

Yeah, someone else posted 8:15pm that it will be switched on... just want to grab some dinner before it starts and dont want to miss it.... still a bit of confusion i think...

Someone also mentioned that it's a 1hr show and will be on a loop...??

Does anyone know what the hours of operation will be during normal times? If it's running all night i'd feel sorry for the students in the student accommodation opposite!!

Cheers,
James.

<edit> just saw Adamo's comment... 8:15.02, thats a pretty precise time!! make sure i'm there at 8:15.01!!

I will be getting there around 7:30 if anyone wants to meet up. I will be wearing a black coat, black pants, grey shirt and I will be with a group of 4-5 peeps!, ill wear my unisa name tag: adam tarca

my friends are so excited about this!

Loved the testing on tuesday, great comments from all the people walking by who saw it for the first time, they were blown away. It is going to make people just stop, look up and appreciate it.

Yeah it will be a one hour show. On tuesday some of the last images they showed were just a few funny ones like animals, and chickens running over the screen :P haha was funny. I am not sure if these are part of the show, but all the content ive seen from tuesday was excellent! was surprised i was the only one filming.

Tonight, Adelaide is going to to get even better! with better ambiance, creating a whole new purpose corner, a new meeting corner, a whole new prupose for this venue.!
