Muse, Powderfinger, Lilly Allen, Eskimo Joe, Groove Armada, Grinspoon, The Mars Volta, Ladyhawke, Dizzee Rascal, Karnivool, Peaches, The Temper Trap, Kasabian, Midnight Juggernauts, Rise Against, Magic Dirt, Mastodon, Lisa Mitchell, The Horrors, Bluejuice, Calvin Harris, Kisschasy, The Decemberists, Tame Impala and Girl Talk.
Yet another fucking sub-par performance from Ken West. If he’d stop pulling his own dick, then maybe we’d have a decent line-up. Safe to say Falls leaves BDO for dead.
It's sad to bury the past, especially when it means handing over the reigns of your favourite music memories and knowing that the past is just that, fucking dead.
Big Day Out has spawned some of the most unforgettable moments in music, housing the biggest acts from across the globe. It's just these days, the line-ups are becoming more forgettable than a pair of underwear on Paris Hilton.
What the fuck Big Day Out? What the fuck?
I think they day it truly died was somewhere round 04, after Metallica sold two shows in Sydney alongside Muse and The Darkness. Since then it's been mediocre to say the least.
Sure we'll still all buy tickets in hope of a summertime resurrection but I feel that my years attending a drawing to an end.
Such buuullshit.

Sydney's Hoptetoun Hotel Closed Today.
Local music factory and beloved Surry Hills venue The Hopetoun Hotel unexpectedly closed today.
Without warning, staff and punters were turned away due to unexpected closure, leaving our favourite bar staff jobless and the Sydney music scene reeling.
Bluejuice singer Jacob Stone took to his personal Facebook page today to express his surprise at the unexpected closure,
"Sadly, The Hopetoun Hotel closed today. This is big news for Sydney music, and me too, as I'm now unemployed. Since I got no notice about the closure, I wasn't prepared. If anyone hears of anything, please let me know."
It's safe to say that Jacob received several comments of shock and support as The Hopetoun has been home to some of Sydney's favourite nights out and historical gigs.
The Hopetoun also supported beloved independent music radio station FBI heavily when their future became hazy this year, donating one dollar for every gig and beer sold to the Aussie station.
Unfortunately it's evident that Sydney's independent music scene will suffer greatly from this loss, as the longtime muso landmark has been some of Aussie musics finest moments.
If you know anything about the unexpected closure, so email me at my link on the side of the page.
