The Blurst of Times 2014
A thousand monkeys working at a thousand type writers couldn't create as great a masterpiece as the Blurst of Times lineup. Last year, the fresh face arrived on the Brisbane scene and blew festival-goers away with its immaculately curated bill.
Overview
A thousand monkeys working at a thousand typewriters couldn’t create as great a masterpiece as the Blurst of Times lineup. Last year, the fresh face arrived on the Brisbane scene and blew festival-goers away with its immaculately curated bill. A pre-'Covered in Chrome' Violent Soho headlined, and every band that preceded them were just as impressive.
Now, with a year of fine-tuning under their belts, Blurst of Times has pulled out just as stellar a lineup crammed full of the creme de la creme of Australian music. This year's headliners, trash rock duo DZ Deathrays, are selling point enough. They’ve built up a reputation for their stage antics and being ‘one of those bands’ that’s radically better live than on mp3 (their continually sold out tours are a testament to that).
Lazy-listening Dick Diver will be jetting up from Melbourne, and Aussie punk legends The Hard Ons will be making a much anticipated appearance. And from the local circuit you can catch Salvadarlings, Major Leagues, The Good Sports, Babaganouj and a heap more of our musical do-gooders. Check out the full lineup here.
Venue wise, the festival hops between Brightside, its carpark and The Zoo. Tickets for The Blurst of Times can be purchased at Outpost, Jet Black Cat or online. Don’t be a silly monkey, and grab your tickets asap.
