Friggin Awesome!!!
-
Sheeeeeit!! I may just have to mortgage my grandma to get to that...
-
I'm going to the Auckland and Sydney ones to see AFI. Favourite band, ever.
Also Stooges, Living End and Mars Volta will roxx0r my soxx0rs.
-
Damn Kiwi's getting Fat Freddy's Drop. Lucky bastards.
Although we get Cut Copy and Magic Dirt (so we in).
There was a rumor a while ago the Beck would be doing the Big Day Out. Not sure how much truth there is in that but we'll wait for the second round of announcements.
-
*runs around like excited kid screaming BIG DAY OUT over and over*
I so cant wait. ..... see yall at the gold coast!
-
DAMNIT. I was supposed to be going with some of my friends but they just found out that they are going away with their family. D'oh. x_x
-
I hope the Kings of Leon play their cool old songs and not their gay new ones. Youth and Young Manhood > Aha Shake Heartbreak
-
Their what new ones?
-
IGGY AND THE MOTHERFUCKING STOOGES.
man. i have only just started to get into the Stooges. i hope they rock and aren't faded has-beens. Iggy is like, forty bazillion years old by now, but i am pretty sure that his heroin/cocaine-fuelled body will still kick out the jamz.
i would pretty much only be going to see the Stooges, Cut Copy & Soulwax, though. the Mars Volta i might drop in on, as well as Magic Dirt & End of Fashion.
i hope that more DJs get added.
-
Apparently the reformed Stooges still kick all kinds of ass.
That's what I heard anyways.
-
Did anyone else here that story about Iggy a few years (like, three or four) where he tried to crowd surf but no one caught him from the stage?
Apparently, he fell to the ground and broke a rib or something.
Food for thought.
-
Yes, and that thought is: If Iggy wants to crowd-surf, you fucking well catch him!
-
Their what new ones?
Nothing homophobic ment by that. Only ment that it sucked.
-
Yes, but you're using the term "gay" as a short-hand way of saying they suck - which be extension implies that being homosexual sucks.
Or being happy, depending on which definition of the term "gay" we're using.
-
EMO ALERT!!!!!! if being happy sucks there must be an emo near by, beware angstiness can be contagious to teenagers.
-
ok. so i'm REALLY slow. but inlander i only just realised that your avator was the australian post thing. haha oh god.
before i just sort of saw it as a red&white blob, then i actually focused on it. that's pretty awesome.
-
Why thankyou, I did it myself. Of course the joke will be lost on 90% of the people on this forum, but I like to think the Australians among us appreciate it.
-
I'm Australian and I don't get it but I'm such a retard that I unintentionaly implyed that homosexuality sucks. Did I just imply that retarted people suck? :0 lol. I know I shouldn't laugh... :(
-
*looks at lineup*
yawn (actual, physical yawn. i've been up since 6).
except maybe for iggy pop, hopefuly he's not a complete crackfeind yet.
but then i guess no-one really goes to festivals for the bands...
-
I think you missed Iggy's "crack fiend" phase entirely. By a decade or more.
