I'm gonna jump on at 12.01am as soon as the tickets are released and try to get some, but what do you think my chances of success are? How quickly will shows like Melbourne sell out for BDO? I'm freaking out. I have to see Tool!

I can imagine you biting your fingernails and tearing your hair out while writing this
After seeing everyone's reactions to the first announcement, it's pretty hard to gauge how fast tickets will sell. While there's a load of big names on the roster, there's also a lot of negativity surrounding it. You'd be surprised at how many people are pissed that their fav flavour of the month band isn't playing... and some think that the organisers are simply rehashing previous lineups as all of the major acts have played at the BDO before. Seems that quite a few will be heading over to Soundwave instead. On the other hand, that was only the first announcement and I get the feeling that they'll ensnare many more people if a big electronica/reggae/hip-hop act comes on board (a lot people I know were hoping for Daft Punk).
Well here's to hoping
