Why wait says why not to playing at Full Noise
Inaugural Full Noise Music Festival in Townsville next Saturday
Ever dreamt of rocking it out in front of thousands of screaming fans all yelling your name? Well a bunch of
Kirwan State High School
students are about to feel what that’s like next weekend at the FULL NOISE
MUSIC FESTIVAL in Townsville.... making sure they are now the undisputed coolest kids in school.
The winner of the North Queensland Schools Battle of the Bands Competition, The NQ Rock Awards, was
announced last weekend, with Why Wait taking out the number one spot and more importantly winning
a spot of the FULL NOISE lineup.
The stuff dreams are made of, Why Wait will
get to play at Full Noise Music Festival on October 24,
alongside some of Australia’s hottest music and dance acts including Empire of the Sun, Frenzal Rhomb,
Pez, The Lost Valentinos,
British India, Koolism, Bluejuice, Tame Impala, Numbers Radio, Ajax, Act Yo
Age, KillaQueenz, Low Budget plus stacks more.
“The partnership with The NQ Rock Awards was another way we can ensure the musical talent in the north
is nurtured, promoted and showcased – given a stage on which to perform and also given mentors to work
with,”
said organiser and former NQ boy, Mark Vass.
“We are all looking forward to watching the boys
perform and seeing where this opportunity takes them,” he said.
Why Wait is a young, energetic rock band hailing from Townsville and inspired by a wide range of
influences which results in a diverse range of upbeat Rock n Roll. Forming in late 2008 out of the ashes of
the popular Townsville band New Disguise, Why Wait have since gone on to compile an exciting set of
original rock music, with some classics also up their sleeve. They have impressed many audiences around
the North Queensland, and look to set blow away audiences at Full Noise.
To be staged at the Rugby Union grounds in Currajong, Full Noise Music Festival 2009 will celebrate sound
in a way that has not been done before in the North. The sensational line-up includes bands and artists
currently dominating the airwaves of Triple J Radio and the FM stations nationally.
