Oh my.. considering that we already knew all about Neil Young, My Morning Jacket and TV On The Radio this is a very snooze-worthy line-up. I mean, The Prodigy? For realz? 1996?

Thanks to Quack (via the forum) for the info.

Good job for Eddy Current Suppression Ring to get on the lineup ... hopefully they're on at the same time as Sneaky Sound System and everyone goes to check em out.
bert88
Whats a bet The Prodigy and Neil Young will be on at the same time.
Seymour
I heard they'll be closing the boiler room.
gemdilem
When I last saw the Prodigy at the 2002 Big Day Out (I think they also played late 90s and I saw them then, but memory is failing me) they played on the main stage, headlined... the sound sucked and it was a crap performance... I think they would be better suited to the Boiler Room anyway, which would probably make them on at the same time as Neil Young.
Sean
Alright, the only sideshow I even care about is TVOTR. Anyone heard anything?
I'm thinking The Metro?
tomosushi
so meh...
Seymour
Yes, quite meh.
I wonder if they are saving anything good for the second announcement...
bert88
hey i just realised the presets weren't playing

gemdilem
proof that no matter what the line up, BDO sydney and goldy will always sell out... did you get a ticket tomo?
kidalias
Holy shit, MMJ are playing at The Metro and it's already on sale. And considering most BDO sideshows are $70+, this is only $50.
gemdilem
whoa.. already on sale? isn't that really early for BDO sideshows?

Wayne
Black Kids are playing the Corner Hotel on the 24th
gemdilem
thanks Wayne... annoyingly on the same night at TVOTR in Sydney...
Seymour
I wonder if ticketek will implode with the large amount of shows going on sale December 1.
Jonny Yes Yes
ticketek implodes when a large truck drives past its offices
