no i dont need the materials to make my own fireworks, thought i'd get that out of the way to start with.

ok folks, mildly stupid, overly pathetic, gimme a break (i'll admit it, im a suck up)

chasing a fireworks display for the girlfriend, never mind the story

looking on the net is friggen pointless, tried that

just wondering if anyone could give me a heads up if they hear of any fireworks going on

range.....anywhere from strathpine down to surfers......east to the beach....and west....half way to toowoomba

lol....doesnt have to be a huge show.......just yeh......pretty much any fireworks in the next 3 weeks

asked some people earlier tonight and got suggested that u'd see a few from mt coot-tha on a satde nite, but why not go find em

anyway, cheers for the help lol

yeah goodluck finding them in qld
best place is down is south of the border
and well unless u know some one who has there own supplyer u got phuck all chance of getting them

so dam hard to find any type of firework
i let my last firework about 2 months ago.
he my last 1pounder *sheds a tear*
after that could not find anyone willing to give up there supply

I think he wants a professional to do a display, not illegally purchase them. Look in your Yellowpages, they should be listed.

Or he's looking for a show like riverfire thats on

lol yeh im not looking to buy any...dont make me quote myself

but cruiser is right, im simply looking for a fireworks display to go to

local schools, football clubs, anything lol.......

just, in the next coupla weeks thats all

lookin to get lucky, huh?

Might be difficult. The restrictions will be fairly strict seeing that we're in the middle of a drought.

When are you looking at getting that box built?

Haha... I misread it aswell

For a fee, I will gladly light my farts on fire for you. I'm sure we could get some lasers and whatnot, play some cheesy 80's dance music in the background... I don't think you'll get a better offer!

i'll see what other offers i get lol

help appreciated all the same

Go to the markets . $20 worth of sparklers (specifically, the powder on them) should make a pretty display.

i'll think about it....see how the next three weeks go.....but that....may be a last resort

i'm near toowoomba, tell me when u do it and i'll head to the top of the range and tell ya if i see or hear anything

got some good ones left over from last fireworks night (Only thing NT is good for lol)

Lighting them is much more fun that just wotching them, it should really get her going haha

for the, must be close to fifth time, i dont want to make my own fireworks

i simply want to go to a professionally done show, big or small doesnt matter, just a fireworks display, within an hour and a half of beenleigh/loganholme area

thanks for the suggestions anyway, i might go have a look at some sparklers 2morrow

Oh.. *tucks non-descript box back under bed*

can't pyroay hook you up?

- Stooge007 out

He's a little bit far away (Vic) so he probably isn't doing any shows in QLD

obviously, but he'd have contacts???

maybe worth dropping him a PM anyway?

- Stooge007 out

maybe you should forget about making your sig so big and start reading the topic's stooge.
he wants to go to a show not have his own fireworks.

what i meant was that he may know someone who is doing a show up north

clear as mud?

- Stooge007 out

lol....if pyroay sees this thread and says something then maybe i'll ask

but for now....still looking

the nets pointless lol..i end up getting picture of new years fireworks from all over the world!!!

ANNNY show.....big or small.......around brisbane would be cool lol

(still havent had a chance to have a play test with the sparklers)

i think the caboolture show is on this weekend not sure if there are any fireworks.

cheers mate...jus looked it up and cant see anything about fireworks though unfortunately........

jus a tad too far nearly too lol

i'll keep lookin

buuuump

anybody?

dude,go the sparklers,fill a milo tin with em,small one perfurably and you wont be disapointed lol.or get 2 plastic lids from coke botels or simela and fill one half with sparkler dust use a large philips head screw driver and punch a hole in the top of the other lid,tape the 2 lids together and then cut the metal end off an unused sparkler and shove it in the hole.make a few of these and they should be fine,made one go as high as a 2 story house once,ahh the fun days haha.but ether way dont underestimate the sparkler dust.

...still looking

Well that takes a lot of work.

I have set-up and fired Riverfire twice and it took 54 pyro's 7 x 14hr days to get it set-up.

13 rooftops, 2 bridges, 5 barages and 7 pontoons.
Not a bad show though, especially from one of the firing rooftops.

I've got some photos at home of the set-up, every time i look at them i thank myself i am no longer doing displays that large.......

damn!
nearly 5300 man hours!

*yawn*

lol...im still looking around on the net...but thats pointless......i either end up with something to do with riverfire or new years (when is riverfire?).......OR....end up in a gallery of one of the two

have resorted to asking friends and locals lol.....still, anyone on the southside hear of anything anytime soon???

cheers folks

brisbane river festival is september 1 - 10 - not sure if river fire will be on the first day or last day, cant remember, but yeah thats like 8 weeks away, which is probably to long. Ekkas coming up in august.... The Mt Gravatt show (anyone know when that is) Football Games - check out local schools and see if they are having fates or anything they usually have fireworks
