Big Day Out 2008

We aren't the biggest fans of music festivals but the bigger ones often bring a whole bucketload of potentially awesome side shows.

In addition to Rage Against The Machine confirming that they will be playing we also hear the initial line-up announcement (might) include:

  • Arcade Fire
  • Battles
  • Bjork (well... obvs)
  • Cut Off Your Hands
  • Dizzee Rascal
  • Faker
  • LCD Soundsystem
  • Midnight Juggernauts

The possibility of LCD Soundsystem is VERY exciting, as is Arcade Fire (to some extent) and Battles is doubtful as they were just here. These are all just things floating around the interweb at the moment and (besides Rage and Bjork) it could be all fictional.

Heard anything else?
