are you kidding?! The advertising is going off....we sell SO FREAKING MANY each day it's annoying :evil: the official official lineup comes out today - check the paper, news, etc. Bands are like 28 days, living end, endorphin, machine gun, etc. Their are crappy artists like Sophie, and Selwyn, Russel's 'Let's grunt and make the ladies happy' band as well :( ANYWAYS drinking starts at 5 when i finish work :P :twisted: so all good...it'll go to 'around' 11:30...

although lets be realistic, doubt ever a band of the calibre of ratm, metallica etc, coming to darwin.

there are still better australian bands i'd like to see in a line-up, such as:

sunk loto
silverchair
regurgitator
something for kate

anyways whats done is done.

Crowd turnout 'well behaved' at Bass concert: NT police
Northern Territory police say the estimated crowd of about 5,000 were well behaved at the "Big Day Out"-style concert at the amphitheatre in Darwin last night.

Police senior sergeant Gary Turnbull says there were no major incidents and the "Bass in the Grass" concert was well run.

"We get prepared for traffic congestion and party goers moving into town - we were prepared for that," he said.

"There were sufficient numbers of police there and as I said before, all party goers were very well behaved and those that did move into town caused us no real problems at all."

numbers.... im an idealist and i guess grew up with concerts at small venues with too many people.... moshes to me are packed in so you cant move, where you arent actually having to jump because the crowd is so mashed your all moving as one. lots of sweat, lots of water, screaming at the band you love and comming out with bruises that are unexplainable.....

okay, so i wasnt at *this* concert but i have been at others and people jump up and down... i mean c'mon people, your supposed to get in there and shoulder everyone out of the way, its not a trampoline....

darwin moshes are way too polite... although at least the new generation can at now have a yearly event and go crazy :D

im glad though that this bass in the grass went so well....we deserve a concert like it.
