Does anyone else automatically assume people who say things like this are wastes of breath? I know I do.

I am also rather disappointed nobody has been discussing the presence at this festival of Billy Bragg and Dizzee Rascal. They're blatantly the best things on that line-up, although apparently Battles are insanely good live. I just wish their gigs didn't always sell out in about a minute round here.

ViolentDove:
I'm going. Mainly to see Bjork, as Bjork's only other show in Sydney is limited to 5000 capacity. Also, Billy Bragg (anyone know which band he's likely to play with these days?) and Dizzzeeee Rascal as above. Also, I used to be in a RATM covers band when I was 16, so I might wallow in some nostalgia. A dank pit of warm, moist, angry nostalgia...

Seriously, this is an unusually good line up for Australia.

At least I can assume those two groups are there for the music, for a given definition of "for the music", but every fucking year there are always a huge crowd of dickheads who push people around in the moshpits, get drunk as hell, and just generally cause trouble for the people who just want to enjoy some bands. I really am anticipating trouble because in my experience, most of these "typical punters" are also massive RATM fans and basically that is going to be a crowd with some problems because it will be the highest density of arseholes in this country since the last One Nation party meeting.

That's probably true. I've only ever been to one Big Day Out, though, and I did nothing but get really close to the stage and stay there for Metallica (I was a really, really huge fanboy back then.).

Here's an odd question- what do you do at an Arcade Fire concert? You can't really mosh, but standing still doesn't seem right either, but it's kind of hard to imagine everyone breaking out in dancing, as it'll probably be packed too tight for that.

It's probably because you're an indie fag.

My guess? Everyone cries and hugs each other.
