Avid readers of the Swans Blog will be aware that the Bali Geckos will have to postpone their trip to Vietnam next weekend on the 10 May 2008.

However, do not be alarmed. In it’s place we now have the 2008 Big Day Out in Hanoi!

As per recent tradition in Hanoi, the Big Day Out will be held at the American Club (where else would you hold an Australian event?) and will go all day.

As always there will be heaps of events for all nationalities and ages including the live music which will come on in the evening.

The highlight of the day is expected to be the appearance of the Vietnam Swans, ably led by the amicable and omnipresent Micky Francis.

The Swans will hold a number of footy activities. For old and young, for those of different different nationalities and for those of different religious and political persuasions, it will be a magnificent opportunity to rub shoulders with the stars from the Swans.

How good is that? Get down there next Saturday and judge for yourself. It should be a cracker.
