The very best tweets from BIGSOUND 2019
Some of us watched the sunrise, some of us may sleep through the next one, and some of us are grabbing Bloody Mary’s at in Fortitude Valley right now, but sadly Bigsound 2019 – AKA music industry Christmas – has come to an end.
BIGSOUND 2019 was a firehose of talent and know-how, featuring performances from the likes of Mojo Juju, Black Rock Band, Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers, Ainsley Farrell, and so, so, so many more; plus important and button-pressing panels and keynotes which featured crucial knowledge from ARIA’s Dan Rosen, Secret Sounds Group’s Elise Huntley, and Nettwerk’s Terry McBride.
You can check out some of our coverage here, and here, but it would be remiss of us not to to inaccurately summarise the conference and festival in just a few handpicked tweets, which were chosen based on no metric at all.
Sorry in advance to 50% of the people I'm meeting with at #bigsound for running five minutes late because I forgot to take into account I actually have to get from one place to another

You’ve gotta take a shot every time you hear the word “industry” this week

I’m pretty sure Bigsound only exists so all the industry people have a reason to see each other in real life rather than just twitter and passive aggressive emails 🔒

Correct BIGSOUND ettiquite is to put your lanyard in your mouth and bite down hard whenever a band is on stage. This will counteract your desire to talk over the top of the people you are here to discover.

Here's my hot take on BIGSOUND… all the bands and artists were just wonderful. Great job everyone.

before you criticise Bigsound for being an "industry circle jerk" or a "dystopian corporate hellscape", just remember that every year it injects thousands of dollars into Brisbane's struggling lanyard industry
