Channel V will be airing their coverage of the Big Day Out on Sunday the 18th of February for those people in Australia who want to watch it. It will be on from 11am until 4pm and will be repeated again later on in the week.
For those who don't live in Australia or don't have cable, I'll be recording any Vines songs that they air and will have them ripped and on the net by the 19th .

(Guess I'll have to wait 'til the 19th.) Yay! I can't wait.

so is anyone gonna tape this?












sorry, allie, i couldn't resist. you know who i'm poking fun at...

Yes! I thought i might have missed it, and its on a Sunday! ....now all i have to do is commadeer my nans tv for FIVE HOURS ! This could get messy :makes a note to buy rope and duck-tape:

Thanks Ali!!!

Haha, I'm using my grandma's telly too . I haven't told her this yet, but she doesn't have a choice .

Oh, I would like to live in Australia for now

Someone's gonna rip it?

^ Read my first post .

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wanna watch this, but i think i'll be at tropfest.

what would we do without our nans hey!

ohh times like this, I wish I had Foxtel.

Out of curiosity, which BDO do they show footage of? methinks Sydney.

Yeah they probably will, but I also saw them recording songs of The Vines set at Gold Coast and Melbourne so there'll probably be a mix.

sorry, i have the dumb ....

thanx Allie, you rock! Can't wait to see that !!!

I can't wait to see this!! And relive the Vines BDO experience
Thanks for ripping it Allie! What would we do without you?

Don't know if anyone has posted this yet...

I doubt they will show a full song from many bands at all, you'll be lucky to catch a track from The Vines. The BDI coverage is just half a band interview for someone crap like Sick Puppies, then 30 seconds of footage, then the Channel V people talking to the crowd thinking they're top shit, then a break. Over and over.

Oh I love that! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you mucho much!

OMG I love you for posting that!!! *kisses feet*

Ryan's jumping up and down with a glass and a ciggie in his hand! OMG so cute! *awwws*
And he couldn't keep his hands off of Craig (and vice versa) when the walked onto the stage. Did you see how ~lovingly~ they touched? Awww. That needs to be giffed! (Allie? Please? )
Ryan's hair is always floating around in the air in ... amazingly hot way. I just want to dig my fingers in that hair and play with it. That part at 0:53 is just too great!
Brad looks awesome. I just love the way he motions his hips back and forth while he plays.
Craig looks absolutely great, too. I simply love his hair. He jumps and rolls on the floor quite a lot. And that drum trashing is just the best thing.
Hamish is such a man! That's ... the best word to describe him. He's so ... manly. But what was he doing with/to Ryan at the very end of the clip?
And who's the guy that patted Brad on the shoulder?

WAAAAAAAAAH tahnnnx




pof course they can't!

yeh i hope Allie will make somethin of this



oh my! Craig with the stripe shirt! now we know where is Ryan's !!

and did you see the hole in Brad's shirt in the end? RAWR !!

Oh, I need to cry! I want to be there so bad, taking part in the romp-and-rock and touchy-fest! AHHHH!

Thanks! That's a bit of heaven you've enlightened us to!

To right! I just sat through 4 1/2h of shit! and they didn't even mention them once!! AARRR I'm so upset

And they only showed a 2min interview with Muse!

I hate Channel V!

I know, I'm annoyed too . No Muse - no Killers - no Tool. The three biggest names on the tour and they didn't show any of their sets! I think they'll probably do another Big Day In with some different artists - hopefully they'll include The Vines in that! Because if that was all the coverage Channel V did... well - it's pretty poor.
I know they recorded songs from Gold Coast, Sydney and Melbourne cause I saw them doing it... hopefully they show the footage soon!
As far as I know they haven't even aired the Homebake videos! And I saw them record some Vines songs there too. Stupid Channel V .

I'm sure they'll do another special though, they still haven't shown any of the sets of the headliners - so I'm sure they'll air another special... well... they'd better .

Now what the hell kind of crap are the even playing if you haven't seen much about the major headliners at all?

The played MCR, Jet, JBT, Scribe, Evermore and I think Butterfly Effect. I like a couple of those bands - but leaving out Muse, The Vines, The Killers? They really had better air another special. That's all I have to say.

And my grandparents were watching it with me, and just before the Big Day In started there was something about merkins - haha. They asked me why I wanted to record it and were like "not in my day!" and "times have changed..." . That was a bit embarrassing .

Okay, from a general standpoint that's very weird for them to leave out acts as huge as the killers and muse ...and even though the vines weren't on the main stage, they still are a big australian act! They better do more

Merkins.... I didn't even know what that WAS and had to look it up ...very bizarre.

did they have those massive screeens on the sides of the bdo stages this year?
coz if so, what they were tapngn was probably for what went on the screens

i only figured this coz ive been to a bunch of concerts and thought the same thing, but i then i realised they need to have the cameras for the screens for the ppl at the back, so whilst they were recording them, they might not have been taping it for channel v . . . if i even made sense at all, it waaaaay tooo hot here today

There were screens for the two main stages, but The Vines were on one of the smaller stages. There shouldn't have been a need to tape the set uless they were planning on showing it at some point.

5 hours really doesn't seem like enough to even take in the whole BDO experience. Didn't it used to be broadcast over an entire weekend? And I think I remember one year you could choose from about 4 different views through foxtel digital, so you could pick and choose which sets you wanted to watch.

ahh i didnt realise, thats really strange then,
and i heard that the guy from the killers wouldnt let anyone take photos of their set while they were here because he thought he had a double chin or something crazy like that
prolly not true, but kinda funny anyway

I was watching some of this at my friends house for about half an hour, and they were just playing old crap. Though conveniently, I got there in time for the 2003 highlights. They showed a bit of Craig, just saying how crazy he was, showed him rolling around on stage, about two seconds of an interview, and some guy's black eye which was apparently given by him, but that's it. Oh and Dave Grohl's 'The Silents' top he wore in 2003. The one Craig wore this year. Wow.

I just want to know what the deal with all these promo tapes they are showing on youtube is. Who is making them?!

Awesome video, thanks for sharing I especially love the intro. ^^ It's so cute, it really shows us they're best friend!

They didn't show any Vines/Muse/Killers stuff? Man, Channel V is getting so lame
And the thing with your grandparents, ahaha i find it cute, though. I know it can be annoying sometimes to hear this 'aaah when i was young it wasn't that way ... etc '

best thing ever...even if it is very, very likely made up (I mean, I'm sure the crowd was snapping away anyhow! ....oh and the fact that he doesn't have a double chin ...well, maybe a very slight one )

lol, my friend told me that on the weekend, i dont rekon he has a double chin, but according to that rumour he must be sensetive about it
i think it was just made up since noone saw any footage of them playing

i dont think its true, but its entertaining anyway!!

I heard that apparently that black-eyed guy said that Craig hit hm with a bat! But Craig denied it and said he wouldn't do anyhing like that. Is that true?

there would've been a huge thing about it at the time if he did, i mean look at all the fuss about that camera, if craig had actually hurt someone, they prolly woulda sued, and told their story to anyone who'd listen

I reckon he would have

Pretty sure he wouldn't of. Otherwise he would probably be dead now
Jack White would do that sort of thing though, he punched this guy in Public Enemy at BDO for hitting on Meg.

its great


but there are a lot of videos that used to be in youtbe that arent there anymore.
i dont know why
but for example the interview of craig in mtv germany isnt there anymoree
its sad, because there were great

i dont knnow what happened

If craig can kick someones camera out, im sure he wouldnt have a problem with hitting someone (although with a bat....?)

I remember that.
They guy claimed Craig hit him with a bass if memory serves.
He said he saw the vines equipment and thought it would be funny to smash up there gear...or it might have been steal and Craig saw him fucking with his equipment and rewarded the prick with a bass guitar bitch slap
I saw 30 seconds of the guy and I wanted to slap him, he seemed like he just wanted attention for his shitty band ......wanker. I think his name was Dion or something I can't recall the band name off the top of my head.

Grrrrrrrr i loved the MTV germany clip.

Yeah, I know, they're cracking down because I think they lost a lawsuit with some network over one of the network's shows that was not allowed to be reproduced, but had been uploaded to YouTube anyway. So they totally devastated Jen's account...the first day I saw, I got so sad (and mad at Youtube). They're taking tons off.
