DZ Deathrays, Hard-Ons and Dick Diver to Headline the Blurst of Times Festival
The Valley's about to get pretty damn loud.
The Valley's about to get pretty damn loud. Celebrating its second year, The Blurst of Times festival has released their first lineup announcement, with the likes of DZ Deathrays, Dick Diver and Hard-Ons set to create some bonafide chaos in Brisbane this October. Sporting a kickass Simpsons-lovin' title, the returning festival will see 28 bands take over three venues in the Valley for Saturday, October 18.
Releasing the first idea of the lineup today, The Blurst of Times lineup sees Brisbane's thrash pop favourites DZ Deathrays at the top, with Sydney punk rock legends Hard-Ons and beloved Melbourne indie foursome Dick Diver. Brisbane's Blank Realm, Orphans Orphans, Major Leagues, Babaganouj and Rolls Bayce will also throw down sets alongside Canberra's TV Colours, Sydney's Day Ravies and Melbourne’s The UV Race and High Tension.
Celebrating its second year of tomfoolery this October, The Blurst of Times has already cemented itself as a surefire Good Time on the Brissy calendar. The 2013 edition took over Alhambra Lounge, Coniston Lane and Black Bear Lodge with Violent Soho, Velociraptor, Scott and Charlene's Wedding, Drunk Mums and The Cairos among a solid lineup. This year, the festival will make The Brightside home, as well as the Brightside carpark and The Zoo.
