teenah you are spectacular. thanks for the love. we'll go make you the best record we possibly can next month. see you soon...perhaps the ole big day out in fact

Has anybody else heard about this? I really hope they do come! I miss them so much...

Holy shxt that's awesome.
They said they would be touring Australia/Canada first once the record is done so BDO would be freaking amazing. I don't think he would mention it if they weren't playing! we should probably not spread it around to much.. wouldn't want to get them into any kind of trouble~

thanks for telling us though. that is brilliant!!

Yeah well i havn't really mentioned it until now x.x So yeh i hope i've done the right thing haha
I'm heaps excited about it but i'm not gonna get my hopes up yet because then i'll be miserable if they don't end up coming.
I was expecting them to do a headlining tour next time they came here (which would be amazing but i guess they have to get a more solid fanbase here first) and i didn't expect their return to Australia to be so soon coz of the album and everything but it will be great

Yeah I understand what you mean. I was massively surprised when they mentioned they'd be touring Australia early on .. or plan to anyway
I just assumed they'd do US/UK before going anywhere near us. A festival makes huge amounts of sense .. I didn't even consider BDO.
That's epic

The only festival i've ever been to is Soundwave and that was amazing and hella fun xD
I hope other good bands go to BDO then...I mean even if the only band i like going is Madina Lake i will still go just to see them but it would be nice to make a day out of it and see some other bands.

BDO normally come up with a pretty awesome line-up which is a plus. This years looks like it could be fair good judging by rumours and such ...

October 1st is soon so we won't have to wait too long

Well i'm just gonna have to start listening to some new music because i'm not too familiar with many of those bands loll
But the same thing happened to me with soundwave and i ended up liking a whole heap of new music so it's all good

I can't wait till next year!!

Pearl Jam? That would make my year...

Oh please oh please let it be true!

But more so...Please oh Please let them be a part of soundwave again!
-crosses fingers-

I knowwww! Soundwave was just the best. It will always be the best festival in my eyes so i'd be so ecstatic if they were going to be a part of soundwave. But if they go to BDO i don't think they'll be able to go to SW..

True true...

The problem with BDO is that compared to SW practically none of my fav bands go...SW is definitely more my style.

Yeah same But you could get to hear some new music and maybe you'll find some bands that you start liking then?

Good point...thats how I like the bands I do now

Its great meeting new people cos they intro you to new bands and then you can fall in love with a whole different type of music!

Like 5 years ago I only listened to Death Metal XD
Oh how my tastes has altered

Yep and i am in serious need of some new music >.<

Haha

Go through my list on MySpace and see what you can find on there that you don't know.
