It's that time of year again when summer is in the air. In Australia, that means Christmas, heat waves, bushfires, and of course, the Big Day Out. For those previously uninitiated in the idea of the Big Day Out, it is the annual music festival that tours Australia and New Zealand towards the end of January. Since 1992, it has boasted impressive lineups, from Nirvana
and the Violent Femmes
at the inaugural event, to White Stripes
, Mars Volta
, and Franz Ferdinand
at this year's event. Next year's lineup has been speculated for quite some time, with the wider rumours suggesting Muse
, Chili Peppers
and Tool
at the festival. Minus the Chili Peppers and the reality is only slightly less sweet. The first round lineup announcement names the following:
All shows
Tool
Muse
Violent Femmes
The Killers
Peaches
My Chemical Romance
Spank Rock
Jet
Eskimo Joe
Scribe
Evermore
Australia only
The Sleepy Jacksons

Of course, this is only the first round lineup, designed to conjure excitement for the ticket release, which occures this Friday, 13th October. Second round lineup will be announced soon enough, and I'll be sure to let you know, but I am anticipating the likes of Gotye
, The Presets
, Starky
, and hopefully Bob Evans
, but we'll have to see. Until then, the lineup is definitely attendable, and I'll be sure to grab my ticket. The shows are: Auckland - Friday, 19th January
Gold Coast - Sunday, 21st January
Sydney - Thursday, 25th January
Melbourne - Sunday, 28th January
Adelaide - Friday, 2nd February
Perth - Sunday, 4th February
