"You walked in to a land of make believe, it was all your favourite artists in one place..."

For 22 years, triple j's live music team was backstage at the Big Day Out recording all of the amazing performances from the hundreds of artists and bands that played the iconic Australian touring festival.

As Double J does the Big Day Out in October, we're taking you back to those incredible years on Live At The Wireless with back-to-back double headers from some of the best Big Day Out sets in our archive.

This week, The Breeders open the pit up with their rugged and raw performance from 1994. They were at the peak of their powers; Last Splash had just come out and Australian audiences were treated to classics like 'No Aloha, Divine Hammer' and 'Cannonball' for the very first time.

And don't go losing your spot, because Magic Dirt follow it up with a scorching set from their sixth appearance at the Big Day Out in 2006. They were one of a handful of bands to play the festival over 35 times.

Live at the Wireless: Tuesdays at 7pm, encore Saturday from midday and On Demand.
