If there are two bands that don't deserve to have their names bookending Grinderman, it's Crystal Castles and Wolfmother.

big day out is easily the worst festival in australia at the moment...... except for winterbeatz maybe......

Soundtrackguns (October 1, 2010)

there's probably a few worse, but it's the worst lineup in years. JJJ snoozefest for the most part

After No Sleep Till and Soundwave I dont have enough cash to afford a BDO ticket just for The Stooges

BDO has sucked for at leats the last 10 years, no idea how they keep on getting fools to go

Hopefully the No Sleep festivals does well enough to warrant a return annually to NZ
