With the Big Day Out touring around the country in a few weeks, one thing you can count on is some great side shows.
One band I was really hoping would do a side show is The Arcade Fire. After a few weeks of religiously checking my local street press for any sign of news, finally a gig in Melbourne has been announced.
The band is set to play The Forum on 29th January ‘08. Tickets go on sale on the 12th Dec and are $87.00.
Other bands to keep an eye on for side shows in this Big Day Out season are Bjork, Spoon, Rage Against the Machine, Battles (who are also doing a sideshow), Die! Die! Die!, Billy Bragg and Unkle.
