They'd definitely change up the sets.

Big Day Out is proud to present Seattle’s PEARL JAM who will be playing at each Big Day Out including different sets at each Sydney show. Officially closing the Blue Stage, you don’t want to miss out on Pearl Jam’s debut Big Day Out shows. This will be your only chance to see Pearl Jam in Australia and New Zealand this summer.

Sheesh guys, it's a Pearl Jam tour! It's hardly a bad thing. It'll be a blast.

Sorry too lazy to look it up what does the "like a Boss" tickets get you ?

If Pearl Jam and Arcade Fire clash the festival organisers will be entering a world of pain.

Yeah, tough call. What do you usually do on Aus Day? If you enjoy the JJJ countdown or have a party to go to or enjoy doing your lawns at home on Aus Day, perhaps that's the one to leave out. That's what I'd do, but Oz Day is just an institution for me and I don't usually share it with PJ!

Plus likelihood of 'more relaxed' BDO crowd the day after Oz Day for me is almost enough of a reason.

PJ better step up their game, because if Arcade Fire is playing directly before them, PJ run the risk of being blown off the stage. No joke.

So, so, so jealous right now. And I didn't even mention Blur. Anybody complaining about the lineup should shut the fuck up.

Maybe 10c should just make this the official board? They already stole everything else from here.

Pearl Jam will follow Arcade Fire on the main stage and play for two hours. Blur will start on the new LOVE stage immediately after Pearl Jam. No crossover!
