Here's what went down on night one of BIGSOUND 2018. Photos by Barry Schipplock.

"These Brisbane punks shouldn't be messed with. Expect that they'll continue taking over the world one gig at a time."

"We can only guess as to why Chakra Efendi and his band aren't headlining bigger stages."

"There's nothing catchier than shouting 'District! Destruction! My Way! My Moment!'"

"To call this night incredible is an understatement."

"Yeah, Big Pineapple! How ya fuckin' garn!?"

"GUM is a formidable act - blending beautiful aspects of experimental psych into music anyone can dance to in a club."
