Holy fuck. Longwalkshortdock... Neighbor.. Chopstick.. Chicken George... in that order.

The only BIG disappointment aside from the awful electro/cheese house at the White Bird stage was the Smalltown DJs.

But even then, I haven't danced so hard in my life.

Also, big ups to Dave, Farshad, and Glyn for one hell of a weekend.

[Ryan Ross]

Holy ouch. Soundwave, I rode you good and you in turn rode me back.

Touche, soundwave, touche.

(freaking awesome time though, wowza I love that place!)

Agreed. Honourable mentions also to Phil Western (ping pong in the field + techno = awesome), ill-esha and Bitchin'.

Guys, that ruled.

Yeah, the music was a lot better last year (way less funky before) but I still had a way better time this year. They maintained the bathroom sanitation (constantly cleaned and stocked), the showers were rad, recycling stayed on top of, more parking, the food didn't run out this time, and the stages were all set up way better (more intimate, great sound whenever they weren't overworked, bars at every stage, and The Meadow). Big ups to sets from Blind God, LWSD, Thugf*ckers, and whoever that disco band on Saturday afternoon at the main stage was. K + Ping Pong + Live Disco = wonderfulness. Sorry to have missed Dirt Crew, Square Root Of Evil, Ruairi Lazers, and Chopstick. Tipper would have changed everything, but it was still the best festival experience I've ever had. Good vibes all around.

I thought the music was way better this year personally.

Chicken George, Mat The Alien, Neighbour, Smalltowns, Jon H, and Big Bass Theory were personal highlights.

[socool]

Wood'n'Soo!!! Such a great moonrise set, the best I've heard you guys play this summer for sure.

Big Bass Theory: Heck Yes.

I also loved loved loved Daega Sound System's Sunday set.

Wood's sunny afternoon set on the chill stage was ultra vibin. Wonder how those panties ended up on the ground like that... Tom Jones, you better watch out.

[dabbler]

who was the band that Neighbour was playing in on Friday night?
