[99X's Big Day Out 2000]

[felipeintheend]

Lets collect info about this event, who knows someday we find the videos.

 

Years ago I have spoke with Scott, ex LP's bass player, and he told me there was a webcast for an outdoor event in 2000 being show on internet. It took me years to figure out he was refering to this event.

So let's collect the evidence the event was webcasted and, somehow, we all missed the train.

LP showed clips of this show during Hybrid Theory 20 I remember but I can't find the footage. It was just a brief clip. Does anyone remember where it was?

 

Don't see it in this video:

Not sure if many people realize how rare it is for there to be any video that exists like this of a parking lot stage, but this is where they set the Revolution Stage up later on in their career for Projekt Revolution 2007 and 2008. For normal concerts at the venue, this is the actual parking lot where cars park lol. So, everything there is temporary. Filming this in proshot from such a location is crazy, but really cool.

 

Would love to see this somehow. The band probably didn't release it (or the Roxy 2000 show) because Scott is on bass.

I don't get it, why releasing a show with a session bass player is such a big deal?

[felipeintheend]

Its not a big deal and thats why they were not released xD

Westminster in 2000 is one that comes to mind, I think. I love this short-lived era of the band. They literally had a couple of months of being a small act before they took off. It's insane and pretty much unparalleled.

When was the exact tour when they really got big?

I'd say the European tour in September 2001 marked the beginning of that, judging by locations they booked. During that time "In The End" got released, and it went through the roof from there (followed up by a very successful Family Values Tour and then of course their arena shows in the US).

But it should be noted that after the end of 2000, when they only played as a support act, they were immediately able to fill the same locations (size wise) on their Street Soldiers tour that they toured as a support act a couple of weeks/months before that (with only less than half a year of real shows in the bag!).

Once they entered the European market through airplay and their tour with the Deftones, they went sky-high (effectively January through March - only 3 months), especially after "Crawling" got released and got huge resonance with the younger female demographic. Then you had their show at Rock am Ring in the afternoon on the main stage, which is a pretty big statement for a band that didn't really exist in the public eye just one year before that.

 

And finally: In January 2001 they played their first headline tour in clubs. Only one year later they filled arenas. It was insane to witness that in real-time. And they never looked back.

 

Edit: And I totally forgot to mention Ozzfest (to get back on topic :D), where they won over a huge number of people through their live performances during the summer of 2001.
