I was reading through the comments to the recent newsletter article this morning, and came across this little Big Day Out 2013 tour rumour from PolarBear: While catting with a few members after the Puscifer show in Houston last week, I overhead Josh Eustis say there may be plans for Puscifer to play Big Day Out (There ya go, Aussies. Wait is almost over.), potentially followed by a string of… Read More »Puscifer to play Big Day Out 2013?
I’m extremely doubtful this is the case, but in the last few days a Twitter account called BigDayOutSpy has been leaking the alleged lineup for the 2012 Big Day Out. Acts so far have been somewhat interesting, without being amazing until this post earlier this evening: A Perfect Circle are the other Green/Converse stage headliner at Big Day Out! So far, I found the leaks believable, but to be honest… Read More »Rumour: A Perfect Circle for Big Day Out
There’s some great footage on http://dannycarey.org of the Tool/Rammstein incident at the Adelaide Big Day Out in February. It’s been recorded be Breck who’s the projection director. Excellent audio and visual quality!
I’ve dropped a few hints in the forums in regards to Tool Big Day Out Posters possibly being available online following the tour, and tonight I received the news that this is indeed the case. Melbourne printers Beyond The Pale printed all of the posters for the 2011 tour (excluding Hawaii I think) and the leftovers, all unsigned are available from their website. Limited quantities from the Melbourne side show,… Read More »Tool Big Day Out Posters

On top of this is the infrastructure damage that comes with such widespread water, and… Read More »Queensland Floods…

An announcement from Big Day Out organisers today tell us that all tickets for the event on the 27th of January can now be used to get an extra guest in for free: The Big Day Out has announced a very special Christmas gift for punters in Sydney – all ticket holders for the Sydney… Read More »Second Sydney Big Day Out tickets “2 for 1”
The timetables for the 2011 Big Day Out has been released, and it looks like Tool are only getting 75 minutes this year, unlike 90 minutes that headliners get in previous years. Not sure what’s up with that, but I imagine there’s plenty of disappointed Tool fans out there. Hopefully the sideshows many of us are going to have no such restriction…
I read a post on the Big Day Out site directing us to an interview with Reverb, a local Australian magazine with Danny & Adam about the upcoming tour. It’s quite interesting and worth a quick read. Check it out here. Also in the news is that Danny will be appearing on the Children of Saturn radio show, conveniently hosted by Rynne. According to Blair‘s Toolband post: DANNY will be… Read More »Tool in Reverb, Danny chats to Rynne
I was at work on Friday so wasn’t able to update you guys about an extra release of tickets for the Brisbane Tool side show. Luckily for us all though, Gold Standing tickets are still available as I write this! If you missed out the first time then make sure you get on top of this pretty quick, since I imagine there aren’t many left! Hawaii ticket sales seem to… Read More »Tool ticket updates, A Perfect Circle winding up
Stumbled across a tweet today from the Big Day Out feed, which mentioned the following: VIDEO HITS are doing a 1/2 hour TOOL special this Sat night at 1.20am (technically 1.20am Sunday 31st Oct) – tune in!! #VideoHitsTV #Tool Video Hits is an Australian music show, which mainly features Top 40 type music, so will be interesting to see what actually appears. I guess it’ll just be their videos, but… Read More »Tool on Video Hits, A Perfect Circle on Kimmel
