For anyone who hasn't heard the announcement for Rock-It this year, here it is..
~ October 13th 2002 ~ Grinspoon John Butler Trio Pacifier Machine Gun Fellatio Motor Ace Bodyjar Superheist The Fergusons
I must say it's a pretty fucking piss-poor lineup compared to previous years. Assuming tickets aren't too expensive I'll probably go anyway, but honestly, Grinspoon as headliners? Bah.

that is a pretty disappointing line up but at the same time if you think about it, its not taht bad, that many aussie bands, think bak to the day when we got john butler trio, beaverloop, killig heidi, jebediah, powderfinger and silverchair. they only reason i went that day was for jebs and powderfinger.
so i guess im a tad disappointed due to teh fact that ive been waiting for so long for this announcement....however i was cheered up when i read todays x-press....there is TWO Rock-its this year!!!!!!!! hence the fact this one has been announced as the 'Spring Edition" so hopefully the second one will have atleast one international/headlining quality band, not that theres anything wrong with grinspoon of coarse...i luv grinners

oh have a complain why dont we all or stop your complaining and dont go that'd be easier - then the rest of us dont have to put up with your whingeing bullshit
personally there are one or two bands on there that i dont particularly want to see but the bands i do want to see far outweigh them so im going to go and im going to have fun

even though i've seen 'em all before (and was hoping for a much bigger/better headliner) i'm still happy. it's not just the bands i've missed in the year we skipped rock it, but the whole festival atmosphere...it's always a rad day no matter who's playing.
superheist & bodyjar = shit but MGF are gonna rock the casbah.
and i'm sooo happy that they're having two festivals this year. *sighs happily*
