BIG DAY OUT 2002
1992 -1997 1999-2002
Is it a strike or a spare?
Yes, that1s right, it1s our tenth year and we still haven't found a real
job to keep us off the streets.
We owe an incredible thanks to everyone who works on, goes to & believes in
what the Big Day Out is & has always been about, a celebration of life & an
overwhelming love of music. It1s been a roller coaster ride & we won1t
pretend that last January was a high point for us or the team. However, it1s
now time to focus on the future & inform everyone of what we have in store
for 2002.
Of course you will have seen the future structural changes to the show &
we hope that these are all positives & representative of the mood of the
audience as well as ourselves.
Our goal for 2002 is simple - successfully deliver an uncompromising,
unpredictable, diverse, exciting, intelligent, safe, comfortable, value
for money, world class music festival.......IMPOSSIBLE?....... maybe; but we
sure as hell are going to give it our best shot.
For the first time we are including in the ticket price the BDO pack,
consisting of a refillable bottle of water plus program & useful stuff.
This will be given out free of charge to all ticket holders on the day.
Musically we have secured some of the best acts in the world right now.
Seminal, yet contemporary. People that produce music that will pass the
test of time. Intelligent, exciting performers that have their feet
firmly positioned in the future while fully conscious of the past. Artists
as well as musicians & people you would be proud to take home to mother.
Of course this is just the start of what we have in store for everyone
with the second instalment to be announced in November.
For those about to fly, we salute you.
>From foreign shores we have:-
PRODIGY

CRYSTAL METHOD
Los Angeles'’ finest dance import, love fast cars & bowling.
