Western Australia, the 2012 BIG DAY OUT is heading your way! We’ve managed to squeeze into our suitcases the finest acts from across the globe and local legends too, a non-stop list of the world’s top skaters, performers and artists are all along for the ride. We are excited and honoured to be bringing them to you this Sunday, 5 February at The Victoria Park Foreshore.

It’s been fifteen years since SOUNDGARDEN last graced our shores. Chris Cornell, Kim Thayil, Matt Cameron and Ben Shepherd – the Seattle foursome – close the Big Day Out Stage with a vengeance. Rusty Cage, Outshined, Spoonman, Black Hole Sun – you’ll hear them all and you’ll love every minute of it!

Headlining the Boiler Room from North West London are NERO. Epic noise, thunderous dubstep bass, whirlwind drum ’n’ bass and hail of house rhythms, lightning flashes of rave synths, squall of orchestra, and occasional showers of guitar. “The bass-heavy, dubstep, anthemic trio blew the crowd away … they managed to get the whole crowd jumping.” (SydneyGigGuide). You’ll never forgive yourself if you miss it – the perfect way to end your epic Big Day Out adventure!

As the driving force behind Oasis, Noel Gallagher did everything you can do in music, but never before has he played BIG DAY OUT Perth! That all changes in a few days when NOEL GALLAGHER’S HIGH FLYING BIRDS make their Perth debut bringing a host of new songs to the stage, as well as classic Oasis tunes. There’s plenty of beautiful, loud and proud crowd sing-alongs here so grab you friends and get along to this one.

And make sure you get there early for Perth’s own “cool, calm and commanding” ABBE MAY as she opens the Big Day Out stage followed later in the day by Melbourne rock band, and 5 time Big Day Out veterans, THE LIVING END who have been slaying them with “a masterclass in how to put on a festival set” (Herald Sun).

The Sydney Morning Herald said “rockers KASABIAN offered rabble-raising proof of their place as one of the most exciting live acts” and we couldn’t agree more. And over on the Boiler Room stage are the must-see mash-up mixes of GIRL TALK and the unrestrained energy of OFWGKTA – both of whom have been massive crowd favourites.

THE VACCINES who, according to The Courier Mail “played a sizzling set on the Essential Stage and showed they are ready for bigger stages in days to come”, are a must add to your BDO schedule while over on the Green Stage, FOSTER THE PEOPLE are pulling massive crowds, bouncing and singing along to one of the biggest hits of the year, Pumped Up Kicks.

Returning after a 10 year hiatus is the BDO Skate Ramp featuring the unstoppable legend TONY HAWK’S VERT JAM, KINGS OF VERT and LEGENDS OF VERT. Be prepared to be amazed as the teams keep the crowd enthralled with some high flying, kick-arse skateboarding stunts right throughout the day.

Our 2012 BIG DAY OUT artists are also killing it on the ARIA Charts this week with four entries in the Top 30 of the Album chart (Foster the People at No. 2, Boy & Bear up 7 places to No. 9, Kimbra at No. 16 and Kasabian up 18 places to No. 27).

Tickets are still on sale so what are you waiting for? We look forward to seeing you Sunday!
