Pre-Good Vibes post, part 1



Good Vibrations Sydney is happening on Saturday so in honour of what was my first festival ever the next 2 days will be full of Good Vibes-ish fun.

Good Vibrations 2007 was my first festival and sealed my chronic festival-related money shortages throughout the rest of the year. We cut costs the traditional Australian way (pre-drinks on the bus and the cheapest beer imaginable - Victoria Bitter) and spent the day catching as many acts as possible (Snoop Dogg's surprise performance, The Beasties & Mix Master Mike fucking up their sound equipment and Jurassic 5's farewell performance) and trying not to succumb to the stupidly hot temperature. In retrospect it wasn't the best festival of the year - that honour goes to Splendour In The Grass - but it was still memorable. This year Kanye West & Cypress Hill headline with Lyrics Born playing the role of host. While he won't be performing, LB has a new album coming out this year under Epitaph/Anti-/Quannum Records. First single Hott 2 Deff recently leaked and as expected it's a corker.
