The last one I went to had Rage Against the Machine headlining -...”Read full review »

“Forever spewing that I never go to go to The Big Day Out, I was too young for majority of them but I love festivals now, my favourite being Laneway and Spilt Milk. Although I’d say the OG BDO days would’ve been amazing
Awesome podcast I loved learning about it, great listen ✌️”
