Hardcore 2010

Now in it's 11th year, Hardcore 2010 is shaping up to again prove itself as Australia's premier hardcore music event. This year focusing on showcasing the best Australia has to offer the festival spans across July 2nd at the Manning Bar (18+) and July 3rd at the Factory Theatre (All Ages). Not wanting to keep anyone in suspense, this years line up is announced in full with the following bands playing.

July 2nd - Manning Bar 18+
Mindsnare
Toe To Toe
Extortion
Blkout
Relentless
Ill Brigade

July 3rd - Factory Theatre AA
Mindsnare
Extortion
50 Lions
Blkout
Dropsaw
Hand Of Mercy
I Exist
Ghost Town
Persist
Phantoms

So the lineup for Hardcore 2010 just got announced, and it looks like a lot of fun. I haven't been since 2006, I went the two years before that, and they were all a lot of fun. The recent ones haven't interested me that much. I like it how there's not some big international band, and that it's not in a massive venue either.

Also great that Canberra's own I EXIST will be playing. As well as that you have the great combination of Mindsnare/Toe To Toe. It's quite the lineup.
