thanks for that link. i cant wait! its gonna be so good!!

[Stevoh]

It's absolutely ridiculous! I finally get to see Finch, Say Anything, Valencia, Houston Calls and Saves The Day!!

[phil19]

yeah finch too! its a quality line up just like this year!!
its so much better than any bdo line up ive ever seen

[Stevoh]

BDO try to cater to too many music tastes and end up with like one or two bands from every genre. It doesn't work. Soundwave is a million times better!

[phil19]

amen to that

[cereal4life]

Anybody excited for Soundwave? I'm especially amped to see Anberlin, Emery, Funeral for a Friend, Moneen, Ace Enders, Minus the Bear, Valencia and Houston Calls.

Getaway Plan
Parkway Drive
Deez Nuts

Goodnight Nurse (does NZ count as local acts??)

[_Andrew]

whoa what a line up, i'm gonna try extra hard to go to this...

[ShimmerAndSpill]

That's ridiculous, I wish I lived in Australia.

[AussieBoy]

if they dont find a venue... ill put my hand up and say we can have it at my house! the neighbours r pretty cool normally

[J7X]

The lineup is pantswettingly exciting.

Even though I can't afford it at ALL, I'm making the trip from NZ over to Sydney for it... Super-psyched for Silverstein, Every Time I Die, Chiodos, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Funeral For A Friend... Plus there's a whole lot of other bands I'd be keen to check out.

I don't even care who's on the second announcement, there's more than enough on there already to keep me happy. Oooh, but Fightstar would be good.

The BDO lineup is such a joke this year. Neil Young? Seriously?

[J7X]

Oh, and one of the 4 international acts to be announced next week has already been confirmed as Dillenger Escape Plan.

[AussieBoy]

Fall Out Boy touring in Feburary!

Soundwave maybe??? (prob too big too be announced this late)

[EchoPark]

Well I'd like to give this a bump. If anyone remembers way back in November I predicted it and now they have officially announced the venue.

Eastern Creek Raceway!!

It'll be fun as hell getting to this one..................Not

[Broden Terry]

Oooh, but Fightstar would be good.

They were still in the studio finishing off recording their new album.
It was always going to be unrealistic. :-(

I've got tickets though. Stoked to see Valencia especially!

[Inaction]

Still pissed that i'm missing this.
