After waiting 11 years for the return of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE to Australia, tickets to both the SYDNEY ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE on TUESDAY JANUARY 22 and MELBOURNE’s FESTIVAL HALL on WEDNESDAY JANUARY 30 have SOLD OUT in RECORD TIME this morning.
In light of this unprecedented sell out, Lees and West would like to announce that RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE will also appear at the BIG DAY OUT 2008 summer series kicking off in Auckland on January 18 followed by shows on the Gold Coast, in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

So big news, newly reformed band Rage against the machine are confirmed to headline next years Big Day Out. If the rumours about the Smashing Pumpkins are true it's looking like it's gonna be a good'n for us ex 90's teens.

Not sure about Bjork, my first reaction was "whoopee!", but after thinking about it, I have no idea what to expect.
