The Stooges!

[LESStar58]

Are confirmed to play Big Day Out! Long time coming! I cannot wait and hope there will be a sideshow in Melby at some point!

*gets up and plays Funhouse*

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

Iggy is back! It's been a while between Big Day Out's. i Feel sorry for whoever has to play before them as they're going to look reeeeeeal bad.

*Gathers up money for ticket*

Keep hearing the same rumour...

Has anything been confirmed yet by Lees & West?

 

[LESStar58]

It was in "The Age" and also announced on Triple R (subscriber radi station in Melbs)...

They are coming. Next Wednesday it will be official!

EXCLUSIVE: STOOGES COMING TO AUSTRALIA
No official announcement yet but the Stooges are doing the Big Day Out festivals in Australia in January, 2006. Our source is impeccable and you heard it here first. Proof that there is a god.


And you'd want to get onto this at the same time.

Buh? Are Radio Birdman playing BDO as well?

Awesome, Iggy is a legend.

Man...both the Stooges and Pixies would be great. Apparently Lees & West were still trying to make Pixies happen as at last week but if The Stooges are confirmed, I'm guessing Pixies have knocked them back.

Interesting move by Lees & West though - trying to mature a festival which has been either incredibly immature or a boganfest (or both at once). The younger festival goers will bitch and whinge about a band they haven't heard of. Franz Ferdinand will keep the bogans happy though

nope. this weekend and next. Just a nice Stooges link. The Woolshed gig will be special. A homecoming for Rob Younger. St George fan extraordinaire since the late 50s and now (p)resident of the South coast. Yeah Hup.
