FaLLs fEst 'o6/'07

Here are some shots from Falls Fest, Lorne, 30 Dec '06 - 1 Jan '07

Who - Cam, Hadas, Matt, Rosie, Zoey, Me

How - Drove from Sydney via the National Hwy - quickest way in and out

Weather - Surprisingly cold! Low mist and rain most of the time, although when it did clear it was HOT!

Sweet Bands - Michael Franti, John Butler Trio, Blue King Brown, M.Ward, The Bedroom Philosopher, The Mountain Goats, Wolfmother

Best thing - Escaping to the hidden carnivale in the forest, sitting on pillows and drinking tea, no phone reception :D independent artists impromptu performance stage

Worst thing - Drunk, inconsiderate, obnoxious crowd in your face the WHOLE time! Like schoolies transplanted! eW.....Also, only one big stage and one big tent, not many places to go and no intimate venues. Traffic!!!!!!

Best food - Rice bread wraps for lunch

Best drink - Earl grey tea at 3am, yummmmmmmm

Stupidest thing seen - People throwing lighted sparklers and beer cans into the mosh. Oh, that and the blow up sex toy doll that was inflated and impaled on a campsite.......c'mon man!

Funniest thing seen (possibly taken from a Glastonbury doco) - Some dudes were sitting at their campsite by a pathway with a $5 note on the end of a fishing line. They had a fine old time watching people go for it and then pulling it out from under them. Pretty funny hehehe!

Verdict - Next year I'll avoid it like the plague ;)
