Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines! The BIG DAY OUT is almost upon us and we are very excited to announce the third round of touring and local additions to the 2007 summer series!

THE VINES have come a long way since the early days of belting out Nirvana covers at suburban house parties. Garnering world-wide attention for their debut Highly Evolved, THE VINES have returned to prove they’ve got something more to offer than flannel-clad angst. Their highly anticipated third album, Vision Valley released in 2006 showcases a spectacular return to form. Don’t miss THE VINES’ highly evolved, eclectic hybrid of grungy, garage rock swagger, '60s psych, and '70s pop at a BIG DAY OUT near you this summer. (ALL SHOWS)

Yay! I was really sure they were going to play, but hearing about it officially is definitely a big weight off! Thanks Ava!!!
The line up for this BDO is now definitely the best I've ever seen . I can't wait to see the shows!

Enjoy yourselves, whoever is going, can't say I'm not jealous 'cos I am. I really want them back in the UK soon! At least I can console myself with the fact that I'll be going to just about all the gigs when they do get back here!! Sing along for me!!! And I can't wait for the pics and vids.

I was considering selling my ticket if they weren't going.

This makes me so so so happy!! I was getting a bit scared there.


You bet we will!

If they didnt go- you still get $80+ profit on ebay

I had to get it off e-bay in the first place My transaction screwed up and I missed out.

I'm so glad I'm going to finally see them in concert.
I wish I could meet them, but unfortunately I cant afford to upgrade my ticket
ah well.
better luck next time annie.

yeah, but it's ridiculously expencive, and really hard to find.
