WA's biggest local music event for the year. Anyone going? What bands are we keen to see?

tbh I think it's just a regular sign of American oversaturation

I recently saw a comparison between American brands and European brands and even Europeans were struggling to recognise their own local variants vs Coke/Pepsi/McDonalds/etc

    Nah, there are plenty of local acts that I would think of as the States best loved artists. I don't just mean the unrealistic ones like AC/DC - they're too big to play at some hick town like Perth unless it's in the Stadium.

    We have:
    The Waifs, John Butler, Eskimo Joe, San Cisco, Karnovool, Hoodoo Gurus, Tame Impala, Birds of Tokyo.
    (This is by no means an exhaustive list. Just pointing out that there are very different names I'd put on a 'best loved artists of WA' list)
