Now I am marginally interested in the Big Day Out line up - but the reason for this was TVNZ's headline to announce this, but we'll come to that later.
The bands announced so far are as follows - Tool (a little bit past it?), The Killers (good), Muse (dont really need to comment), Jet (good), The Violent Femmes (great as long as they only play their old stuff.... that wont happen will it) My Chemical Romance (bollocks), Eskimo Joe (are they still alive?) Peaches (who?) and Spank Rock (again who?) are the internationals. Naturally its padded out with a shitload of mediocre NZ stuff - Scribe, Evermore, The Mint Chicks (who people rate), Minuit, The Veils (who are huge in Britain) and the excellent Shapeshifter.
Like most years there are bands Id like to see - but as a package its not worth the effort. Gnarls Barkley are rumoured to be on their way too - but this is unsubstantiated.
Now the headline - The Forecast is for Rock at BDO '07
Champagne sub-editing there TVNZ!
