[@sgtcaco]

Mate, 2 year old reply. I will use what ever I want.

[@lukeabberley98]

Yer leave him alone it was proper sic times !!! I got my eyebrow ring kicked out my head in the grinners mosh pit and it didn't tickle !!!

[@sgtcaco]

@@lukeabberley98 Mate!! My best memory of the bigday out was sitting on that grassy knoll, On some strong shrooms and tripping balls from hearing grinners, the sound was echoing all around me, the whole stage was coming at me like a train, The Indians were taking over. I just, can not explain it. It Was Sic!

El día que venis a Sydney Te llevo hermano

[@alfredgorman1723]

Could get caught up watching these old BDO videos all day :) Grinspoon were great live. Pat Davern was an underrated guitarist. Some seriously rocking licks.

[@wildlifeandfood7176]

Well said on all fronts

[@ruination775]

Davo is Criminally Underrated..

[@re20bt]

One of the last truly great Aussie rock bands.

[@Boredomdeluxe]

James Davey bro, my wife had an hour long convo on exactly this topic.... Are they the last genuine aussie rock band

[@irwincallum1]

violent soho

[@j-skrogz5857]

Karnivool?

[@shanobarrett3116]

They truly are one of the greatest.

[@bambogini]

Greatest not last

[@samwellisloco23]

Farrrk i miss festivals like this! Not a smart phone in sight and everyone just having a great fucking time! :)

[@ClintsGuitarsNGear]

I reckon Grinspoon are possibly the greatest Aussie band period. Saw live so many times in the late 90's around Brisbane, Gold Coast and Byron Bay. Was awesome seeing them live at the Great Northern Hotel in Byron one night. Such a small venue so you really get to experience the band's energy. Met Phil outside the venue after the show. Such a great down to earth guy that never thinks he's too good to hang out with all his fans. He's shorter in real life 🤣🤘

[@jimielockakao.d.molddaddym4670]

Karnivool , Silver chair and Parkway drive are the biggest rock acts so to speak that have come out of Australia , Grinspoon are bloody awesome but not on that level

[@kennyrussell8534]

Hey said “Greatest” not “Biggest”

[@KeironP1]

Coming back from a surf at Long Reef beach Sydney back in the day, 35 degrees outside and 50 degrees inside my Daihatzu Feroza.......sunburnt and full of salt............."Guide To Better Living" was always the perfect choice for the drive back home...:-).

[@leewyat7109]

+KeironP1 JUST ACE

[@paulaction5957]

Was at longy today saw Matty Johns.

[@jasondunn7930]

first time I heard Grinners was early Jan 96. Grinspoon played live on on television mentioned they would be playing B.D.Out Sydney. about an hour later had tickets, saw them, BLOWN AWAY.... ROCK ON .

[@kstar4horsemen]

I was there....& it's as awesome as I remember. Still can feel that atmosphere, acceptance & sense of being part of sumthin BIG... & the freedom I felt during those earlier BDO's & Livid's. Festivals seemed to change around mid 2000's... does any1 else agree?

[@michaelprice6584]

Remember seeing grinspoon at the 2009 bdo. I was blind drunk, Phil was off his head and put on such a show. arm in arm with a random singing. What great memories

[@back2lifechiropractic526]

How good is that guitar peeps.......I know people had a massive hard for kings of the Stone Age. ......but this does Australia proud. Juicy lead

[@drumsnbikes]

Champion is still one of the all time great songs.

[@annesash4510]

My favourite! Amazing how many men, (and younger) dont like it!

[@MrWobblynuts]

Still loving this in 2019

[@jarrodfrench5669]

[@Brodzzzzz]

Always loved the live sound of the bass. Was unreal.

[@Neramath]

I know right! Gorgeous. I aspire to find that sound for my bass someday.

[@JohnnyKim-tk5uu]

They are truly a great band. We salute you!

[@missmangles]

listening to this on Australia Day 2015!! Awesome Aussie Rock \m/!!!

[@fatsnorkel]

Fuck yea!!!

[@DonnyPepquoi]

43Kouta - thanks 4 going to the trouble of putting the track list in complete with times....you are the man !! Thanks !!

[@yakidin63]

Great footage and great sound on this.

[@piaconis69]

we need more bands like this.

[@TorquilBletchleySmythe]

Sadly, the Aussie music industry has been hijacked by the mundane and the talent free.

[@vancenic6629]

AGREED !

[@vancenic6629]

Too the " MORE BANDS LIKKE THIS " bit

[@TrevorPhilipsBro]

Its dead mate, shit everywhere now

[@TroyWalker-kc4dr]

I fuckin love you Back in 1997 u blew my mind. I'm grinning 100% you do Australia proud

[@davidmowbray9912]

The music is soo good, the video is really good also.... hat's off to all involved with this production.

[@nidzdotnet76]

... And they are back! Can't wait to see them in July play Guide to better Living..

[@AJ-fi4it]

saw it, it was awesommmmeee! hope you caught it too homey

[@cmfy-bunnyanime8969]

Jason Jones went to the gig at Miami it was awesome 💜

[@nidzdotnet76]

... And 4 years later going to see them again... Can't wait..

[@maich7551]

One of the Sickest Fucken Aussie acts! Real Kents!

[@raymondmasse5577]

Saw these guys when a radio station in Boston (WAAF) had their annual "Big Field Days" concert festivals. They were brand new with WAAF one of the only rock stations giving them a break on the airwaves. To say the least as you can see now they've developed into their own entity. Megadeth just happened to be the main act that year.

[@malibumut]

Massive goosebumps at about 23.... p,s, Don't change a thing.... x

[@Danoz187]

Was always a priviledge watchin these guys live all through high school & playin their covers at parties n shit Many great memories from much simpler & better times Long live the grinspoon 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@MsEXPLICITLYRICS]

[@roryos]

Wish they were more well known outside Australia! Albums over here in Britain are expensive for physical copies (which I prefer)

[@steveparker8579]

Awesome Band...Deserves more recognition!

Freakin love the Grinners !

[@Intelli-gent01]

Been to every BDO since I was 16 (20 years ago). They certainly have changed a lot since this one in 2005. In my opinion the whole market has changed and the BDO's reign on festivals is coming to an end. You cant cater for both rock and dance crowds at 1 gig anymore. Soundwave and festivals like future will spell the end for BDO in coming years. Look at the numbers in sydney now. Lucky to fill 1 BDO up now and they used to get 2 full crowds in 7 years ago...

Kids walks in on his dad listening to Grinspoon 'Dad whose this?' 'Son this is Grinspoon, one of my favourite bands when I was a teen, they were tonne what Violent Soho and Smith Street are to you. 'Whatever'

I was just a kid when Grinspoon were at their height, but they remain more awesome than a heap of music from when I was a teenager, and almost everything from my twenties.
