Rumours or requests anyone?

I'd heard a couple of weeks ago Rage Against the Machine were a chance.

Seems they are, announced an Australian tour, which is likely to include BDO.

I've also heard Foo Fighters and QOTSA will be back again.

The ONLY thing that would get me to next year's BDO is the rumoured Saints appearance. Even then I'd go to the side show.

that would be awesome! so hope it's true.

I knew you'd comment LL, and knew it wouldn't be entirely positive

I think I am finally getting too old for the BDO Dogwatcher Besides how could you ever top 1993!

FWIW a guy by the name of Peter (PC) Curnow passed away recently at the age of 50 after long battle with several health issues.
Far as I'm aware, he had a fair bit to do with the BDO arriving in Adelaide and the organisation of it during it's formative years.

F***!! No way!!! That sucks.
Him and his partner Di use to organise all the Lees West gigs in Adelaide including the BDO.
I use to see a lot of Pete when I was still in Adelaide. We went to see The Buzzcocks in 1994 and spent an hour waiting for the Buzzcocks to come on stage talking football - he was North man to boot!
RIP Pete

Had confirmed today from a very reliable source that Rage Against The Machine will infact be headlining the 2008 Big Day Out

I heard that The Smashing Pumpkins (well,what's left of them) could be playing?

RATM will be awesome if they are rejoinin for the right reasons not $$$.
Would luv to hear "Bombtrack, down rodeo and bulls on parade live. Worth 120 bikkies just to see those.

Pumpkins just dont cut it anymore. So may have a look if they plays some classics.

I also hear Velvet Revolver and Fall out boy.....Meh

Id call it rock. When I think of metal, I think of Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Iron Maiden......

I'd definitely call VR rock.

I might not have said you were trippin though.

Which reminds me of a great 90s song by Push Push - "I was trippin out on youuuu!"

Hopefully we get some announcements soon

Yep. Released stuff on the famous Flying Nun label!

I was in New Zealand when Push Push released that song and I was never sure of anything much more that that chorus. Still find myself singing that line on ocassions - great song....
