Everyone’s favourite DJ, Big DJ Trev, of local station KRR.fmwill be putting in a live appearance at this year’s Rylstone Street Feast on November 5th! This will be the first time the event has been held since the start of the Pandemicso looking forward to some great tucker!

Phone answering messages recorded upon request (payments accepted in either cash or beer). If he is eating however do NOT disturb him – it is not wise to get between a man and his meat because losing a finger often offends.
So come on down and meet Big DJ Trev, it’ll be something to tell your grandchildren!
Well Scott, it’s not as glamorous as you might think, nor as easy. One does not simply show up to the station with a box of CD’s and a laptop of downloaded songs ready to go. It takes a lot of work and preparation throughout the day to get ready for that evening’s performance.
To answer your question best, let me take you through a typical day leading up to that night’s broadcast of The Big DJ Trev Show:
7am – Wake up. Groan. Scratch. Roll over. Go back to sleep.
9am – Wake up. Groan. Scratch. Get up. Brought Irish Coffee by butler.
9.30am – Breakfast: Bacon, Eggs, Sausages, Black Pudding, Hash Brown, Mushrooms, Toast, more Coffee. Tell butler to give the groupies in my bed cab fare and send them on their way.
10am – Go to toilet. Read papers to check for interesting news stories to discuss on tonight’s show.
10.30am – Reflect upon how I am so much more knowledgeable and such a superior writer to every journalist in every newspaper everywhere. Finish going to toilet.
11am – Personal Assistant opens and reads out my fan mail. For those who have sent cash/Transformers/nude photos tell assistant to send them 8×10 glossies and autograph them on my behalf.
12pm – Limo arrives to take me for working lunch with Agent at All-you-can-eat BBQ Rib Joint. Half- listen to latest round of offers of movie roles, television spots, celebrity appearances and book deals. Endure constant flirtations from busty 19-yo waitress as she brings plate after plate of ribs.
12.30pm – Hit Agent over head with whiskey bottle when suggestion made of doing a Reality TV Show with Sophie Monk. Agent grovels and apologizes profusely. Get fellated by waitress.
2pm – Ribbon Cutting at new Hospital Wing in my name. Inform Agent (still bleeding) to keep all sick people at least 20 feet from my position or else its Whiskey Bottle Time again – Agent rushes off to inform bodyguards. Plaster smile on my face as photographs taken, hands shook and fans scream my name.
4pm – Meet with personal trainer. Told yet again should not be smoking and drinking on treadmill. Tell trainer yet again to go fornicate himself and throw beer bottle at him. Personal Trainer apologises and goes to find bandages.
5pm – Dinner: 1.2kg Tomahawk Steak with garlic mushroom sauce, sides of mash potatoes and roasted corn on the cob. Pedicure whilst eating and assistant reads through celebrity guest list for tonight’s show.
5.30pm – Chopper ride to Radio Station. Fussed over by the ladies from wardrobe, hair and makeup.
5.57pm -Moment of crippling self-doubt in dressing room, knowing that I’m a sham who makes his fortune off playing the music of real artists.
5.58pm – Shot of the brown stuff, snort of the white stuff.
5.59pm – Walk through station to Broadcast Booth. Clapping from all sides whilst bodyguards clear a path.
6pm – Showtime!
I hope this answers your question Scott, and that you enjoyed a sneak peak behind the scenes of what hard-working prep I go to each week to bring you the sparkling entertainment you have all come to expect and enjoy. And remember folks, you can listen to The Big DJ Trev Show every Thursday night from 6 to 9pm on KRR.fm.
As most of you would know by now, I have a weekly radio show.The Big DJ Trev Show airs every Thursday night from 6 to 9pm on krrfm.org.au
Well Community Capers –the Rylstone-Kandos district newsletter – asked if they could write a short piece about me in my role as a ‘local radio personality’ for their publication. And what a callous sod would I be to disappoint my adoring fans, so I readily agreed.
Enjoy the short article from Community Capers (Octoboer issue 2021, Volume 274), which talks about my Transformatoriumalmost as much as it talks about my show!
As is my custom, each week I put up on various Social Media (such as the Big Angry Trev! Facebook Group) promo pics reminding you good folk to tune in for some awesome music and witty (if sometimes somewhat insane) banter between me, myself and I on The Big DJ Trev Show!
Please enjoy the first two dozen of those promo pics, including those from the weeks where I was lucky enough to have some co-hosts join me for the fun!

Rejoice lovers of free speech and insane rambling everywhere, for here we are – the 5th anniversary of the Big Angry Trev blog!
Who would have thought bigangrytrev.com would still be running strong after half a decade eh! Does it mean I am a talented writer whose turn of phrase brings literary delight to you all, or simply that you all are gluttons for punishment – the jury is still out on that one.
It’s been a fun 5 years and a great creative outlet for yours truly. There have been times where I couldn’t stop blogging and other times I would struggle to come up with one post a month. Likewise there have been times where the site has had thousands of hits in a day, yet other times the traffic has been so slow it might as well have been Rylstone on a Tuesday afternoon. However the site has continued to grow and expand from a few different topics to a dozen categories – be it Hobby Farming, Meat ConsumptionorTransformer Talk, with there now being hundreds upon hundreds of posts for your reading and viewing pleasure.
The blog has had some great successes. The story about a Redback Spider killing a Blind Snake(which turned out to be a legless lizard) was picked up bylocal Victorian newspapers and even the television news! Some of my Transformer reviews have been picked up and shared by the major TF sites overseas such as TFW2005 and Seibertron. For a while there I was receiving free merchandise from Hasbro to review regarding the Transformers Trading Card Game and even given a fewworld exclusive card reveals! Ah, free Transformer merchandise – if only that had extended to toys we would have probably paid off our mortgage by now.
Of course it’s not been all high’s. I’ve had people vehemently disagree with my blog, despite it’s relatively non-offensive content. I’ve had people completely misconstrue my meaning so they think I’m supporting what I am actually mocking (satire is a foreign concept to some). There have been several cyber-attacks which necessitated the purchase of some high-level malware and spam protection. For a while I couldn’t share links to the blog on Social Media due to Mr. Zuckerberg and Mr. Morrison having a spat. I’ve even had one threat of litigation; despite my lawyer saying I was legally safe he also said it probably wasn’t worth the headache to fight. As Ricky Gervais says: ‘no matter what you say, it’s going to offend somebody somewhere’.
So I’d like to thank all the thousands of people who have read my blog over the past 5 years. Whether you’ve been reading about the idiocy of my youth inTales of the Trev, checking out my latestTransformer Toy Reviews and Fan Interviews or simply enjoyed one of my infrequent videos, its been wonderful to have an international audience to share the bubbling mess that is my inner thought processes with. But there are also some specific people I need to thank:
*Thanks to my in-laws Matt & Jo for suggesting starting a blog in the first place.
*Thanks to Ozformers and its founder Griffin for letting me continue to post links on his site
Thanks to Hasbrofor the freebies to review (I’d like some more please!).
*Thanks most of all to my wife who has been kind enough to keep the kids out of my hair long enough in order to put finger to keyboard on occasion. She also kindly overlooks the fact that in order to keep advertising off my site the blog is a sinkhole for money rather than a cash cow. Who knows, maybe if I increase my readership by 500% it might be worth putting up an ad or two – get your friends to start reading so I can quit my job and do this full time! Who knows – might even get around to writing that novel the missus has been telling me to for years.
So many thanks everyone and to you dear readers – here’s to the next 5 years! If ever there is something new you would like featured on this site don’t hesitate to post a comment about it – I’m always looking for something new to talk about. If you’ve got an Ask Trevquestion on any topic or just an issue you’d like to hear aRandom Rantabout don’t be shy. Keep up to date with when new posts are put up by joining the Facebook sites Big Angry Trev! & Big Angry Trev’s Transformatorium, or simply create an account here to keep you update!. And don’t forget during those times I have writers block you can still catch me on the Big DJ Trev Show on Krrfm.org.au to get your weekly dose of warped Trev logic, insane rants and good tunes!
