Melbourne - February 29
Adelaide - March 1
Perth - March 3

 

[McLovin]

Pretty pizz poor lineup there...

 

[Bumble]

I was expecting Billy Talent.

Not to be.

Still, Incubus, Offspring, Motion City Soundtrack, Sugarcult, From Autumn to Ashes, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus...should be decent.

 

[Once Dead]

Killswitch Engage, AILD, Coheed, Still Remains and Shadows Fall, count me in!

Hmmm...Worth forking out money to see them? Heresy kick arse; big 'Switch fan; and Haste are pretty sweet.

Still...

 

[GC_Gladiator]

Incubus, Killswitch, Coheed, As i lay dieing, Saosin, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, Sugarcult and motion city soundtrack.

I'd go for Coheed alone, best live show i've ever been too! No dirty jokes, gimmicks just a awesome awesome set with great musicians!

This is a definitie- better line up than BDO for mine!

 

[Danish]

Got my tickets already...

I gotta admit I barely know more than 5 or 6 bands in the lineup, but I am a big offspring fan from my teen years so will be attending purely to see them

 

[Bazal]

Hmmm..pity I can't afford to go. I;d go for Offspring and Incubus alone, but I don't mind Coheed and Cambria, The Starting Line, Sugarcult, Saosin (although, like Coheed, whininess has become the order of the day) and some of the others. *sigh* prolly far too many emo kids there anyway

 

[GC_Gladiator]

Saosin are incredibly whiney- and really are just an ordinary emo rock band. But coheed are totally different in my opinion, if you check out the latest album which has just arrived on shelves he really shows what a great singer he is (definately a tenor, but his voice has improved dramatically from the second album to the newest).

 

[Bazal]

Oh I'm not denying he can sing...I just find they get really whiny if I listen to them for more than a few songs. Have heard they are great live though so I'd be interested in seeing them

 

[LESStar58]

Social D cancelled!

*cry, cry, sniff*

Got my ticket on Saturday and then yesterday the one band I'm going to see on that bill pulls out! I'm currently making enquiries on refunds....

 

[fat_mike]

got my tix aswell.

should eb a pretty decent day out. last yeasr line up for mine was better as i saw the bronx, parkway drive, terror, and hatebreed one after the other.

have seen killswitche before and will defintely check them out. have seen ASID before and they were sweet, not sure they'll cut it at a festival with outdoor venue. defintely checking out coheed adn sugarcult.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

What a crap group of bands.

 

[supersoniceagle]

I got my tickets. Should be good. Hopefully the weather isn't pathetic like last time

 

[julian87]

Deplorable.

Laneway is the festival of the summer without doubt tbh.

 

[CliffyIsGod]

Exactly, Julian. Okkervil Fiver!

Also, Sufjan Stevens at the Sydney Festival!

 

[julian87]

Forget Sufjan (or maybe go see him just don't burst with excitemtn because

OKKERVIL f**kING RIVER are playing Laneway!

 

[gorilla with a shotgun]

imo thats an awesome lineup

 

[Dani]

Exactly, Julian. Okkervil Fiver!

Also, Sufjan Stevens at the Sydney Festival!

Dude, if i miss Sufjan i will probably kill myself. So much <3.

 

[GC_Gladiator]

Indie... i'd rather make love with a cheese grater.
