Today I am taking my son to his first grown up concert, and it's a good one!
Soundrelief is a fundraising event to help support the victims of the recent bushfires in Victoria. The event in Melbourne is going to be MC'd by home town girl Kylie Minogue.Amongst the bands that are playing today;
Midnight Oil (reforming for this gig)
Jet
Wolfmother
Hunters and Collectors
Split Enz (reforming for this gig)
Jack Johnson
There is another concert being held in Sydney and that features some great acts as well:
Hoodoo Gurus
Coldplay
Icehouse
and loads of others!
And now, I am off to get organised otherwise we will be late!
Have fun! I'm a big fan of Midnight Oil, and was very excited to hear they're getting together,even if it's just for this concert.
ReplyDeleteYay for a great 'first' concert and supporting victims of the bushfires.

The Oils were one of the highlights of the event without question!
ReplyDeletecindy, the boys didn't last. My friend ended up bringing them home because she had had enough too, but I stayed for the whole thing and it was totally awesome.
I haven't been dry for 14 hours, my throat is sore and I had a fantastic day!
Sounds like a great event. Wow, Midnight Oil, my dad would love it! Wolfmother is fantastic...reminescent of Led Zep's sound.
ReplyDeletecool post, I like it.

Oh, you've probably done this already so I hope you two had a blast!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had fun Marg. I saw the Oils so many times in my youth I was tempted to hop in the car and head to Melbourne but just couldn't justify the expenditure after spending the last week entertaining myself. I saw the footage and they did look pretty good for some old guys :)
ReplyDeleteOh how fantastic I love Coldplay and saw them live in december one of the best gigs I went to!
