The rumour mill has been buzzing more than ever this year in anticipation of the 2009 Big Day Out Line-up and finally we have the real deal in our shaky little hands.
As previously confirmed by the BDO peeps our favourite icon with a heart of gold – Neil Young – is heading up the bill and marching alongside him will be those mischievous kid the Arctic Monkeys. In 2002 The Prodigy tore up the main stage off the back of their album Fat Of The Land and now Keith and his lads will be back to prove they still have it for BDO 2009.
The Aussie contingent is also strong this year with The Living End, Sneaky Sound System, Cut Copy, Cog, The Grates and FL fave’s Eddy Current Suppression Ring all billed for this tour.
