Eagles of Death Metal - New album coming out and mentions of down under tours
ACDC - yeah - we always say that, but they are playing now in their last set of live shows
Black Mountain - yeah why not, with only one South American date in Nov it's likely

MGMT - yep the dates are lining up as they are still in Aussie on the 13th of Jan
Vampire Weekend - Still open
Cat Power - dropped hints at playing summer festivals last time she was here

HE HAS TOO, HE JUST HAS TOO!!!!!
i dearly hope Foals is in the 2nd announcement
Bring back TOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLL!!!!!!
SYSTEM OFA DOWN!!!!!
RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE !!!
Scars - sadly no. They're not touring/playing at the moment. At All. :(
Kaiser Chiefs - def no there busy during jan/feb
Kings of Leon - there last tour date says they are playing Madison Square Garden in new york on the 1/29/09, could still make the bdo, couldnt they?
The Raconteurs - massive possibility, said they were coming to aus very soon, and currently they have no dates colliding with bdo
Radiohead - thom yorke and the crew hate flying due to there environmental awareness, and there current tour has ended (maybe for now) in tokyo in october. its a long shot but whose to say there not taking a 2 month break then heading to aus? lets hope so!!
Eagles of Death Metal - Josh Homme is working with Arctic Monkeys on there 3rd album, EoDM have released a new album, why not make the trip along to BDO with AM? theres a huge possibility here.
MGMT - Good possibility now, there in aus for now til decemeber, cant see why they wouldt hang round for another month or so for some extra cash and also to annoy scalpers
The Rascals - havent tour Aus yet, and there tour dates end in decemeber in the Uk, if they come it would mean that also a good chance The Last Shadow Puppets would be playing considering Alex Turner and Miles Kane
those are my thoughts, i cant wait
Hoping for Coldplay, Vampire Weekend and MGMT. EODM would be entertaining too...
i think serj and hot chip could be safe bets. and scars on broadway have pulled out of soundwave, so are free. kings of leon, kaiser chiefs busy during jan/feb
Remember when I saw the the first time at the small stage. The singers' gutar broke a string, so while he was fixing it the rest of the band played Joy Divisions first single.
True.
That makes them kinda goth. But with undyed hair and they won't drink Wolff BLass out of skulls on a full moon. It'll contain bourbon.
i reckon mgmt will defo be there.
i just wish we had soundwave in this country. that line up is great!
their in aus at the time and would probably go with the tour.
Paramore
and another Punk or Metal band would be nice.
