Default Music Scene in Oz ???

As you can probably guess i'm a big Quo fan.
I know from using the Quo message board that they have a big following out there, but i was wondering what the concert scene is like out there.
Myself and Debs love to go to concerts ( we probably do 15-20 a year between us ) so it would be good to know.

I love rock music and have been fortunate enough to see some of the biggest bands in the world,( The awsome AC/DC x 4, Metallica x 2, Rush,Queen and too many more to mention )
I would hate to think that when we come out there we won't have the opportunity to see any of these bands again.

Any info would be gratefully accepted.

Off to see Anastacia on Friday :scared: with Debs then the next one is the Mighty Quo at the Manchester Apollo in December.

Cheers And Rock on...

Certainly in Melbourne, the live music scene and concerts are alive and well.
Summer festivals are great and the twilight cinema- sat on the gardens watching a film with a cold beer.Excellent

I can honestly tell you as an australian that the rock music scene concert wise is rivalled to the uk. I am also a big rock fan and every major city has festivals such as the big day out and if looking at brisbane melbourne sydney etc. all major bands will tour there and u will find the local rock scene pretty fab also.
all the best

Yep, I agree. The music scene is definately "rocking" over here!
They play some excellent rock music on the music stations (the ones I listen to anyway...!) And most of the major bands do gigs here in most cities.
I personally think the music is better here than the U.K........
