  • Hard News: You've got to listen to the music,

    I believe the abundance of international acts is a reflection of the market and the lack of CD sales. And lets be honest, if you are given the opportunity to tour this part of the world, this time of year, you are more than likely going to take it.
    Me, im personally over the super festival, and the same acts re emerging every couple of years. Sure their is always an couple of artists you really want to see, but to trawl through the masses to see them, no thanks. Imagine if The Pixies had decided to only play the Big Day Out, not fun at all. At least now we Pixies geeks can do it as one big sing along, instead of having some pissed kid screaming out " your fat" to Frank Black because they just dont get it or know why a bunch of oldies are shaking in excitement.
    And talking bout The Pixies, Grant Hart of Husker Du , the band that had some serious influence on The Pixies samongst others, will be in town early Feb doing his thing. New album is a killer.
