If anyone has a spare ticket or 2 for the Melbourne BDO at cost price then fire me a PM. I realise the likelihood of this is next to nil.
So what was the Arcade Fire like live?
Seeing the sideshow at the POW in melb .
How did they handle the vocals ?
Got a serious chub over seeing this unit
Highlights:
Rage Against The Machine - Awesome set, with so much intensity
Grinspoon - Thought they were brilliant in getting the crowd to fire up in the mid-arvo. Also played Secrets to which gets a big
from me.
Arcade Fire - First time seeing them, and I wasn't disappointed. Very good band, great intensity in their performance, too.
Dizzee Rascal - My mate want to see him in the Boiler Room, I tagged along, and it was hectic in there, but also very fun!
Karnivool - They were very impressive, great set-list, no mucking around, just getting stuck into it. Love it when bands do that.
Silverchair - Their set was basically like the one they performed at in the Powderchair tour. They were good, and really set the crowd up for RATM with a very energetic performance.
Low-Lights:
Bjork - UGH! Just can't stand her.
Operator Please - Oh dear! I know they're young, but I just can't see anything in them. Such a potty mouth bunch of kids, too. They started playing the opening riff to Sweet Child O' Mine, then stopped, thank god they did, they would've absoilutely murdered that song.
Faker - They were good last year, but they disappointed me this year. I just couldn't get into their set.

Silverchair opened with The Greatest View, but played a lot of songs off of Young Modern. The only songs they didn't play off of Young Modern were The Greatest View, Ana's Fire and Freak, if my memory serves me correct. They were on stage for an hour, 6:30-7:30.

Manged to get some at below cost price.
At the Gold Coast BDO they were still selling tickets on the day, which was ****ing weird, considering I couldn't get a ticket, until a mate couldn't go. So that was definantely weird seeing them selling tickets on the day.
Cheers ill give them a miss then. Had a feeling it would be something like that.
