A rock festival headlined by Alice Cooper, Blondie, Deep Purple, and Placebo has been moved to Western Sydney from the CBD after complaints from the Returned Services League (RSL).

The event was supposed to take place on April 25, ANZAC Day, the day on which Australia and New Zealand commemorate their fallen soldiers.
