Well another year has been and gone. But as we wave goodbye to the ‘noughties’ with a few tears in our eyes and a warm, heart-filled smile from all the fond musical memories, a whole bunch of ‘KA-POW’ comes our way to thrust us into the teens with a maniacal grin… 2010 is going to be HUGE!!

First up we have the SUNSET SOUNDS featuring the stellar international line-up of the YEAH, YEAH, YEAH’S, MOBY, GRIZZLY BEAR, JAMIE T, EDITORS, EMILIANA TORRINI and of course holding our own with five-star Aussie talent like LISA MITCHELL, HILLTOP HOODS, DAPPLED CITIES, SARAH BLASKO and many, many more!

Tickets available from moshtix.com.au, 1300 GET TIX (438 849) and moshtix outlets. This is an 18+ event. 2 day ticket - $148 + BF.

Keep your eyes out for MyVisionTV’s reviews of the sets played at the Brisbane Sunset Sounds, Jan 6 & 7.

Then before we can even catch our breaths, Jan 9 will see people frolicking at SUMMAFIELDAYZE on the Gold Coast where they will be treated to the electronic musical stylings of 2MANYDJS, INFECTED MUSHROOMS, MAJOR LAZER SOUND SYSTEM, LCD SOUNDSYSTEM, SINDEN, FAKE BLOOD and a whole bunch more. (Tickets available from Ticketmaster - www.ticketmaster.com.au - Call 136 100 or OzTix - www.oztix.com.au - Call 1300 762 545. Tickets $129 + BF)

Then as if we weren’t already in complete and total overload with some of the world’s greatest musical acts so far, along comes the juggernaut of the BIG DAY OUT, hitting us low and hard on Jan 17.

Not that anyone really needs reminding of this mother of a line-up, we here at MyVisionTV just get little shivers of excitement every time we see it, so here it is – MUSE, THE MARS VOLTA, PEACHES, KASABIAN, GROOVE ARMADA, DIZZEE RASCAL, RISE AGAINST, GIRL TALK, THE HORRORS, PASSION PIT, MIAMI HORROR, SAM LA MORE, SIMIAN MOBILE DISCO, TAME IMPALA, BLUEJUICE, KARNIVOOL, LADYHAWKE, CALVIN HARRIS and many more cosmologically grand acts; including home-grown heroes and big favourites of MyVisionTV SURECUT KIDS – make sure you check them out!

With a colossal line-up like that, it’s no wonder this baby sold out within minutes. So if you don’t have a ticket already – best of luck trying to find one for sale!

But of course with such a massive festival as BDO also come the many wondrous sideshows!
