Groovin' the Moo @ Prince of Wales Showgrounds, Bendigo (16/05/2009)

When I probably should have been doing assignments, I was at a festival in Bendigo. Surprise surprise. My review of all the action is here on FasterLouder. Sorry about the puns, I was told (by a certain editor) to go right ahead and include them.

Highlights of the day - ART vs SCIENCE in the tent with the inflatable penguin flying around to Flippers ("Use your flippers to get down"); The Drones awkward stage banter ("I think we should play a song" ~ Gareth Liddiard); Little Birdy (the whole set) and Katy Steele cracking it at someone in the crowd (not sure who or why, but it was funny); Ratatat for being an awesome surprise; and Hilltop Hoods, with the amount of times they got the crowd to put their hands in the air.

Here are some clips from the festival:

1. Little Birdy - C'mon c'mon - opening song


2. Little Birdy - Brother (my camera wasn't agreeing with the lighting for this one)


3. The Living End - Who's Gonna Save Us


Moo!

Skydiving... Waahooo

On Saturday 2 May, James, Tess, Gary, Adele and I went skydiving at Euroa. Perfect weather meant that the view was spectacular, except a lack of wind actually resulted in us coming down quicker - dammit! This was the most awesome experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who's up for a thrill!

So, here's me:


And here's Gary (he was smart and changed the music to his own selection):


I'll try to get the other videos up here at some stage.

Thanks to the sibs et al. for the present! =D
