---------------------------------------------------------------
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.

I've read both the "he did it" and "he's innocent" books and I've gotta say I'm still not really sure personally.

But then again the privy council are somewhat more qualified than me to make that decision...

It's a pretty heavy thought though, I can't imagine being 35 with no real life skills and being turned loose on the world.

NoDoorWay : 14 May 2007 - 10:01pm

that's bullshit man. The Auckland City Council continue to stab at the music scene in the central city. Petition signed, good luck with this.

ButlerianJihad, get hit by a bus.

I'm so your biggest groupie.

NoDoorWay : 31 August 2005 - 12:52am

I'll be there to throw my undies on Friday though dude.

(So begins the online stalking of goatboy)

NoDoorWay : 18 January 2005 - 3:22am

would have to be say what you want by Sommerset.

NoDoorWay : 20 October 2004 - 3:14pm

//Jesus and the Datsuns

I'm still waiting on my copy of Allah and Courtney Love sing songs of love and inspiration.

NoDoorWay : 19 October 2004 - 3:45pm

regarding the question; definitely prefer a pirate girl.

NoDoorWay : 19 October 2004 - 3:40pm

We prefer to be called Buccaneer New Zealanders

Arlo Guthrie. Now he would be an excellent last act.

After all the full on stuff; 30,000 people chilling to the Motorcycle song..

I don't wanna pickle...

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 8:29pm

dammit. There goes the work content filter.

Just had to say c*ck didn't you. Won't somebody please think of the children?

Why oh why won't somebody think of the children?!

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 8:21pm

Just after he morphed from retard to alien and saved the world (Dreamcatcher)

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 8:17pm

Never seen 'em live in person, but from the vids/DVD's etc I have seen Axl sucked live, but the band kicked bottom.

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 8:07pm

Awse.

All hail the 80's children (c:

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 8:00pm

Actually they're the New Kids On The Block. Donnie Walberg got hardcore.

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 7:57pm

Hell yeah. Dalvainius, Ray Charles, Prince Tui Teka and Jonny Cash doing some barbershop

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 7:39pm

Yeah, I'm also pretty stoked with the announcements so far.

SOAD and the Beasties are worth seein for $100 alone, plus Shihad, The Bleeders (yay) and other random not bad acts. From here on out any further announcements are just icing.

There are always improvements to any lineup, but so far it's totally worth the dosh.

I'm still hopeful for Greenday and the Cure though, but even if there are no further bands that interest me announced I'll be there.

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 7:18pm

AFI would be cool, although I'll settle for Greenday.

It'd be cool to see Sommerset there too.

If NIN came back that'd be double plus good.

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 6:20pm

Reckon.

Last year I went for Metallica, but ended up really enjoying all the other random acts I saw in the meantime.

Plus, it's the B - Stee - Boys yo.

Nice.

NoDoorWay : 5 October 2004 - 2:21pm

I'll be there. No real stand out acts as yet, but enough good stuff to make it worth it.

Good to see Shihad back.

NoDoorWay : 29 September 2004 - 2:51pm

//i wouldve tried to trip him over.

You should have anyways. Never underestimate the comedic value of random violence.

NoDoorWay : 23 September 2004 - 7:26pm

Forks Pass - progressive, pschycodelic, psychotic rock with a twist of dementia.

NoDoorWay : 20 September 2004 - 6:39pm

So now I have Bon Jovi stuck in my head.

This is criminal.

NoDoorWay : 20 September 2004 - 6:36pm

I hate how a running gag will sometimes give you the giggles. My manager is 3 feet away and I can hardly keep a straight face.

Dammit.
