The BIG DAY OUT - The Melbourne review
January 30th 2008 00:40
Well, another year of Big Day Out maddness comes to an end and while there were many good memories from the day, there were more negative aspects than this punter has experienced in the past.
Lets go through the good points first shall we?
The bands:
Great sets from Opertaor Please - early but got the crowd going.
Agie March - one the smaller stage but had the throng wanting more.
Bjork - never gets old seeing this songstress perform.
Rage Against The machine - the boys are back!!!
Kate Nash - rousing set from this London artist.
The price:
You can't go wrong with a massive day for what you pay.
Now the negative points:
Food prices:
$16 for a Nandos burger meal - as much as I like the tangy zest of a Nando's chicken burger, this was a little steep!
The Security:
Didn't do much "security" - spent most of the day leering at pretty girls and generally being no help.
The dust:
By the end of the day had dust in every orifice of my body - a bit of grass would have been nice.
The seating:
Or lack there of - it is a little hard sitting and eating your $16 Nando'd chicken burger in the dirt!
The Shade:
What shade?????
But for all the negative points, this ounter will still be first in line for tickets next year, because where else can you see a great line up of bands so close to the city?
Til BDO 2009!!!!
