Although not all of these will make it to Adelaide...

Rumour has it most of these names will be making it to Adelaide.

Chemical Brothers, Kid Koala & Yoda have me very excited.

don't care much for chemical brothers anymore. seen them more than enough to last me a while.

kid koala and yoda however.

Yoda will be awesome. Kentaro has nothing on his zipper scratching skills. I quite like the Black Ghosts too.

I had no idea Sven Vath was still around either ..

Aesop Rock.  Interesting.  Interesting.

Aes Rock, Kid Koala...and Diplo has made some fantastic tunes in his career aswell....i think this is a must

I'm back in Adelaide for this 

Looks like a wicked show!

just as long as i don't get the worst bout of gastro I have ever had like i did last year it should be a fun day.
I head Chemical brothers are not coming which Blows!!

I really hope your wrong about this man!!

thanks for that special bit of info mark   

does that shapeshifters refer to the gay house band?

Don't be baggin my Kentaro!

chemical bros are playing
shapeshifters is the commercial act

Good to hear the Chemical Brothers are coming

yeah aesop rock kid koala and yoda is enough for me to attend for sure

That aint gonna sell me, maybe Shapeshifter...

Didn't someone say it was a different group called Shapshifter?!?!

It's the Lola's Theme Shapeshifters I believe.

yeah there is a house (i think) group called shapeshifters and the dnb group is shapeshifter

Aesop Rock and Kid Koala....!!!!! FUCK YEAAHH!!!!!!!
 In my musical gospel are scripted two of the apostles.

Who's yoda and kid koala? Heard their names mentioned before but have no idea about what to expect from them or even what styles they play.

Ninja Tune acts and easily 2 of the best DJs on the planet.

Lots of breakbeat goodness including DnB.

yeah man kid koala cuts up a load of crazy jazz styles and shit and as noddy said both easily hands down two of the greatest dj's on earth

try and track down the dj yoda/yoda + greenpeace essential mixes if you can

Yeah, those mixes are truly essential. Get em. You can buy his How To Cut And Paste Volumes 1, 2 and the 80's Edition from JB's or Big Star. Buy them, they're sick. Unfortunately the only place I've found the next item, DJ Yoda Goes To The Movies, is on a torrent. You may have to dl this one, as I enquired about shipping it overseas on his website and didn't receive a reply. That was over 6 months ago. Yoda cutting and scratching wicked movie scenes live on two DVD-J's and a lap top it looks like. Fucking insane! As Pete Tong puts it, one of the DJ's you must see before you die. I'm not passing up this opportunity!

I agree, how to cut and paste in your own bedroom volume 1 is dope. Yoda flips ridiculous styles, attacking anything from classic hip-hop to used car salesmen, transcending genres whilst recreating them.

i know diplo was here before recently, and that he played at an afterparty from the parklife (?) thingy,
hope he is  playing in adelaide, he's quite fun with the beats ...!!
and quite nice with the production too...

Hell yes

i would LOVE to see Yoda again...but not enuf to sell me unfortunately

$90+ tix, and after 3 days of Womad....

very doubtful

just wish we could have Yoda for a sideshow, but he's booked all weekend. spewing

yeah pretty pricey.... hmmm

\
yeah over priced a bit for me unfortunately Kid Koala would be rad though. I dont mind John Digweed too.

$90+ - Doubtful I'll be making it to this one, way too much, considering last year I spent around $200 on booze and water, and another $200 on other things. I'd have to quit my job again and use the pay out to pay for the ticket!

out of interest were there metal detectors there last year?

I'm 90% sure there weren't any.

It's $130 in melbourne

full price for adelaide is the same - they are listed on itm as 130 already

full price is 116.7 from venuetix. picked my ticket up today. yoda, kid koala, diplo, aesop rock and chemical brothers all make this a no brianer for me. even at that cost.

ditto. Five times the amount of acts I am interested in at the Big Day Out.

i reckon i might just check the set times and wander down there during the day for a listen *tightarse*

should be in on this one, heaps of cunts are going.

i'd love to see yoda, but i can't really justify spending that much on a ticket after spending $160 already for WOMAD, and not really giving a fuck about most those acts...

just ordered 2 tickets online from fringe for just under $100 each. for those who want cheap tickets apparently you will be able to get $85 tickets if you go to hq this sat night to see international house dj axwell. its $11 entry according to mpk

I know most won't care, but anyone know if digweed is coming to adelaide?

yep sure is

thank you sir... I'll prolly go then...

$130.00 divided by 4 acts I'd care to see makes it just worthwhile

im keen to check diggers too

heard Jenna G was the new singer for (lola's theme)shapeshifter! Anyone now if thats true??

she has done vocals for the shapeshifters - the house crew, not the nz mob that tiki was with.

Thats who's at future music yeah? Heard she was the singer for their live shows and was wondering if she was coming to this show?

sorry, you said shapeshifter in your post

i doubt she would be touring based on the fact she has a radio show here in the uk every weekend, plus she isnt a permanent fixture in the group, she has just done vocals on a couple of tunes.

Bugger!

hell yeah! koala,aesop, yoda. Id pay more to see them alone. Even if it was the only show I went to for the year!

Wake up people! This is the realness!!!!

If you are a Fringe Benefits member then tickets are $100 

Hit me up if any of you cats want VIP area tix to this. Got access to a limited number.

Also have booking fee free tickets on the website www.eclipsetouring.com

Are Maroon 5 confirmed yet? I'm not going unless they're confirmed.

 sorry to break it to you josh but i doubt a band of their calibre would visit this backwater town twice in the same year

may be heading to this now....

are tickets still $100?

When I checked on venuetix they were $125

I am fkn hyped to go to this but not sure if I can afford $250 for 2 tix!

$100 is not as bad but still makes me cringe a lil. How do I become a fringe benefits member, does that cost $$?

ali reckon's she checked the website and they were 100 plus booking fee. so about 110 all up.

that was yesterday...

that is true.

37 degrees and no passouts is going to be pretty rough though. at least there are more trees for this show than summer break.

did those events have close to 40 degree weather like we will have monday?

people should be given the chance to go freshen up, eat good food not fast food, have shower if they want, put deoderant, go home or to atm to get more cash etc etc. last years system where they provided passouts for 2-3 hrs in the evening was perfect

I'm not going, but I agree there should be pass outs for say 1 - 3 hours between certain times if its going to be hot!

I don't have any more tix. Please get on it earlier everyone. The amount of calls since Wednesday is a joke.

Pendulum will be the same. Pretty sure it will sell out prior to the night so please don't think I have spares tucked aside for anyone with my phone number. It's so easy to place a call earlier than a few days out from an event so please do so hey.

maybe duck out and catch the race! That should be valid reason to piss off for a while!

yeh or if they are overheating be able to actually go to a venue on rundle street which is air con and have a sit down and a break. drugs or not 38 is too hot to be surrounded by so many people sweating up a storm. I hate sun stroke and being too hot.

Im giving it a miss even though i was dead keen on this before. way too hot to be forced to be out in the sun all day without a pass out. Woulda been good to get away go for a meal a drink and come back as I please

one of them was 41 degrees

I do see the reason for it. But imo It pretty much ruins it when its going to be this hot. Summer break was fucked!! If it wasnt for aesop and koala, id be telling the promoters to go FUCK them selves!!!!!

Actually they can go fuck them selves anyway!!



But im still going...... Bastards............

yeah, how dare they spend thousands and thousands of dollars to bring out a bunch of acts for you all to enjoy when they cant even control a little thing like the weather!

Yeah well they should have tipped old keithy and none of this would of happend!!

Im only having a lend. Not to say im that im happy with the situation. But I guess thats the way the cookie crumbles.

Anyways bring this shit on! Koala and aesop baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



p.s. the djs are going to be spewing about the weather. Warp city!

fucking selfish innit!

 

found the official announcement about yoda, turns out he ditched the whole tour and not just adelaide if that makes you feel any better...

http://www.inthemix.com.au/news/aust/36639/Yoda_and_Rivera_out_of_Future_Music_Festival

Doesn't make me feel any better! 
Getting ready right now... hopefully I don't die today. It will be a massive fucking day.

All i can say is make sure you check out Digweed, Sven Vath, Kid Koala, Chicks On Speed (but not if your feeling a little 'emotional'), Datarock and Aesop Rock... All these guys absolutely rocked in Sydney...

The Chemicals musically were terrible, too many crap new album tracks but visually they were amazing... Hoping you guys get the same lighting as Sydney... But i will warn you all, if your scared by clowns make sure you leave an hour into their set or you may never sleep again!!!

Hope Myles & Keyser are ok today & don't "perish" as Keyser put it!

A few photos Myles sent me....

Haha is that some random nyunga fella dancing there? Isn't this set up where they usually camp out in their tents?

fark if the grass wasnt trashed at rymill then it definitely would be now! gonna wander past after dinner tonite looks fun!

PS thats johnny!!!!

haha pretty sure I actually remember him. Been a while since I've wandered around the city aimlessly.

really tempted to head down now..can hook up a free ticket, i think i'm too drunk to drive though.

Ok so the weather is unpredictable and thats not their fault but by stoping people from leaving they're controling almost every other aspect of the punters day. From what act they see when to what food they purchase or where they get it, what type of drink your alowed to drink all they way down to where your allowed to take a shit! I know the gate can be a pain in the arse at best but is not allowing people to seek outside facilities is a little over the top imo.

 Summer Break had passouts.

 We went and had tea at Scoozis and came back after.

As hard as it would be to control The BDO needs passouts
I ran out of smokes half way through the day, and quickly discovered there was nowhere to buy smokes inside.

yeh but you gotta go prepared hey thats not the BDO's fault you ran out of smokes

I know that but I thought they would sell them there

I remember the BDO having cigarette tents and spandex clad girls in previous years...maybe they've got rid of them now to avoid promoting smoking to impressionable young minds...




PS. Go Chris raving out with Johnny...where's the hula hoops? 

haha. Yeah apparently it was illegal to smoke at all at the BDO this year.

there was pass outs there for a limited time of about four to five hours yesterday

they had passouts from 4-8, thats pretty reasonable i reckon!

top day, don't really know what i saw (apart from some amazing girls) or what i listened to, just did alot of either wandering or sitting! it was getting pretty messy come sunset thats for sure!!

Aesop Rock and Kid Koala rocked it!

Elite Force was decent (for breaks)

Chemical Brothers were average, but hey I got to see them finally. Their visuals and lighting were wild

The weather was fine as long as u had a good spot in the shade

wandered past n caught 'the clown' bit of the chem bros set (from outside the fence...could see pretty well ) it was awesome! and we raved back of backstage for the last few songs. very cool! was a nice setup, couldnt believe how many people were leaving DURING the chems, but i spose if u've been there all day it'd be a pain.

whoever started the 'no passouts' rumour was genius it was certainly entertaining dining on rundle that eve, with munts pissing on walls across the road and chicks hogging the water jugs at the bar in our restaurant

Fucking hell! Awesome shit. Even if right now my jaw is tighter than a nun's cunt, I've probably got 4 or 5 ulcers on my tongue, I am finding it hard to care, because I had so much fun yesterday. Was right at the front for Chemical Brothers. I'm pretty sure that taking a truckload of drugs and forcing your way to the front of a Chemical Brothers set is the best way to do it. Had some pretty lass want to sit on my shoulders because I'm sooo tall! I guess it does have it's benefits some times.

I imagine the Chemical Brothers set would have been similar to what I saw in Hungary in August. I enjoyed their last BDO set more because they played The Private Psychadelic Reel, but I would probably rate their new set of visuals much higher.

i found them slow and boring. and their new stuff is poo.

thought kid koala was the best set of the day.


awesome day.

OMG AWESOME!

from itm...

some girl was lamenting that her boyfriend bought tickets for womad instead of FMF< they were both outside the venue with us, watching through peepholes in the fence. i TOLD her they would all rock up at an afterparty! ahha!

If they were at EC, I wonder who was at HQ?

yeah they had pass outs at from 5. Not before hand when it was the hottest part of the day though. But like I said, Thats the way the cookie crumbles I suppose. More money to be made on food, drinks ect.

They ended up having pass outs at fmf in the end, due to no atm's I think?


Aesop was dope! Spewn he didnt do much of his old stuff. But I exspected that. Due to his new albumn.
Koala was dope also. Was a shame there was fuck all people around to wittness the realness.

Fun was had. But would have been better if I didnt have to work today! basterds....

High 5 Chris...

Who is Sven Vath, ive never heard of him?  Glad to hear you all had fun, one year ill go.

techno dj/producer

http://www.discogs.com/artist/Sven+V%C3%A4th

Didn't he hold the world record at one stage for the longest DJ set? Played a 2 day party or some shit on his own.

And if I remember correctly, it wasn't ome little club either but a massive rave for thousands of people. He would have needed to hit cash'n'carry to stock up on light bulbs for that one.

i had fun...i was really tired from the weekend, and upset coz i thought all the tickets had sold out, i gave up on going and went to sleep. Then got woken by my friend at the door,  we went to see if i could get in somehow. So anyway to make a long story even longer...we had a beer across the road at that irish pub, then set off on a mission.

We walked and walked in the heat to find how to get into the place, then found out they were sellin tickets back where we had just walked from….

But i got in!

My friend kept wanting to walk around & didn’t really want to stay in one place for very long so i briefly got to dance at each stage for a while & that was good Inhaled a lot of dusty dirt. I went under the water sprinklers, got totally drenched and played stuck in the mud...after i got all the mud off me i was much cooler.   

My highlights were a friend having sunscreen, which I’d forgot to put on and would have burned otherwise  And seein Aesop Rock !!! Rob Sonic & DJ Big Wiz…but my friends didn’t want to stay for his full show and I was really sad…really really sad.

I was glad they had pass outs. The Chemical Brothers were ok, but the lightshow was better than they were. Each time I was starting to enjoy it they’d change the tempo, it was a lil slow I likes a lot of the other acts though. WTF im talking in rhymes.  

Overall I thought is was great.

Hahahaha at the jonny shakin his booty picture  …ha he wasnt wearing gumboots either, that would have been perfect for the puddle of mud. 

I had a great time at this, i rocked up about 5 to six just in time to Aesop Rock who played a set full of his party type beats pretty much just what i xpected from the man was a tad dissapointed that i never got to witness 9-5ers anthem live but you take what you can i suppose.
 After that i just sort of wasted time waiting for kid-koala when he came on he did just what i expected and played an absolute dope set cutting up all kinds of shit from pantera to moon river hands down my faviroute turntablist to see live so many skills to burn.

Did anyone catch Evil Nine? I really wanted to check them out.
