DJ Smillie powers Hooker and Powell

Olympic Park will take on a new flavour next month when Australia’s hottest DJ Grant Smillie mixes it up trackside along with a world class program of athletics action at the World Athletics Tour Melbourne on Thursday March 5, 2009.
 
In what will be the first of its kind in Australian athletics, Smillie will perform prior, during and after the event to entertain a lively crowd and inspire a host of national and international stars.
 
Smillie, regularly described as an all-round music genius, is a DJ, producer, director, artist and radio show host. On top of his extensive DJ schedule, Grant also forms one half of the multi-ARIA award-winning group TV Rock.

The resumes of the stars of the show are no less impressive, with seven Olympic gold medallists guaranteed to provide an exhilarating night of athletics action.  
 
Purchase your tickets now to get amongst the collaboration of world class sport and music and help Grant Smillie drive former 100m world record holder Asafa Powell to run sub 10-seconds for the first time in Melbourne and push pole vault Olympic gold medallist Steve Hooker closer towards that prized 6.16m world record bar.
 
Tickets are available now through Ticketek on 132 849 or at www.ticketek.com.au.
