Word has it that Rage Against The Machine will be touring Australia in January, playing two dates spookily similar to the dates Tool played here in January. Presumably that means Rage Against The Machine will also be headlining the 2008 Big Day Out. Expect a proper announcement soon, unless of course this is a cruel hoax….

Don’t bother checking Ticketmaster, I can’t find any sign of these shows. Apparently it will be officially announced in the next day or two.
In other news The Smashing Pumpkins, Bjork and UNCLE are also rumoured to be on the Big Day Out. Viva La 90’s!
Looks live mr.puscifer updated his myspace/
FUCK YES!! I read about this this morning… awesome… it looks like exactly the same press release as the Tool one. Looks like they’ll only be doing two sideshows I’d say. Sorry for all you interstate people… they should do more shows!
Bjork fucking sucks.
If this is true, that would be awesome. I was lucky enough to play on the same BDO as RATM the last time they came. Plus Bjork and SP! I hope it’s true!!
Will make the ticket price worthwhile for once.
it is official. do a search on the ticketmaster site. tix onsale for sydney – 27 september.
Cost is AU $89.50 – AU $111.70 for Sydney
I assume this is silver/gold tickets like Tool was.
All tickets for Melbourne look like they’re AU $99.70. I’ve never been to Festival Hall so I don’t know what it’s like inside.
Mother of god i thought here is comes… RATM FUCK YES!!!!

I stand corrected. At least you know who I’m talking about!
No Problem! It looks like it’s shaping up to be another wicked BDO- we’ll have to have another Fourth Eye chillout at that bar opposite the EC!

Be my guest. I won’t be travelling this year though, but Fourtheye fans in Adelaide are welcome to buy me as much beer as they’d like at the Big Day Out.
I was second in line out of 5 people in Geelong at Kadinia Park and got a ticket for me and a mate who had to work this morning, but they didn’t have EFTPOS so my mate had to run to an ATM and ended up missing out even though he got back at like 9:05am. If anyone has 2 tickets they would like to give out let me know, hes pretty devoed.
Can’t fucking wait for January now.
