Gosh I miss it too. There was one moment where I was watching Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes while sitting on the field eating the best burger I'd ever had. That is the BDO to me. Those moments. Also, no expert, but you might have misgendered Randa in there.
It's amazing how those foodie moments stay with you! I loved the One Love food tent - I've only ever seen it at the Big Day Out but SO GOOD! (And yes you're right, I had been reading an old review before it was changed, full apologies to Randa, that has been updated)
It was a yearly pilgrimage from Paraparaumu for me, from '97 through 2004 in Auckland and for a few years after that in Melbourne. I have many of those same memories. Also of note, Dave Grohl headbanging from side stage of the Hellacopters set, Peaches balancing on the barrier fence in the Boiler room in tiny shorts holding the hands of security guards. Getting posters signed at the Illicit stand and trying to keep them sweat free all day. Yelling out names of bside tracks at Brian Molko. Missing Muse because, well, Aphex Twin. Bouncing to A.D.I.D.A.S. Thanks for the memories!
