BIG DAY OUT
Tuesday 26th of January, 2010 – Flemington Racecourse, Melbourne.

A warm 30-degree day was not a bad setting for Big Day Out 2010, and this year’s Big Day Out was well prepared with plenty of shelter for the festival-punters. A few changes on the timetable fixture could have been a little better, such as Girl Talk and Kasabian starting at a later time, and Temper Trap performing on the main stage. But not to worry, as the perfect timetable is non-existent.


Miami Horror: 11:00AM-11:40AM (Green Stage)
Watched: ALL OF SET
Miami Horror pulled a big crowd, which is surprising for a band performing at 11am. I hadn’t heard much of Miami Horror prior to Big Day Out, their set didn’t captivate me, but it also didn’t bore me. Catchy tunes ‘Don't Be On With Her’ and ‘Sometimes’ were the highlights of the Melbourne electro-pop’s set at Big Day Out.
Rating: 6/10


Lisa Mitchell: 12:00PM-12:40PM (Green Stage)
Watched: ALL OF SET

Tue 26 Jan – Big Day Out 2010

At around 2pm on Tuesday afternoon, it happened. While I was busy fighting my way out of the masses of people that turned out to watch Kasabian (I swear there was at least 20 rows of people OUTSIDE the D-barrier), I saw a friend of mine, and said to him, "I don't know if I'll be coming back here again." And I meant it. What started out as a very enjoyable for alternative music fans to go and enjoy a good day of highly varied and interesting music has degenerated into something quite different - thousands of drunk and drugged-up Southern Cross-wearing bogans just there because they can be, and let's not forget all the teeny-boppers who wanted to see Lily Allen. The crowds are too big, the drugs are too many, the music has - with a few exceptions - gone mostly downhill and on the whole, this event just isn't as enjoyable as it was even five years ago (when I first attended). But, in 2010, Big Day Out to its credit did have quite a good lineup, enough to see me attending anyway.
