Just got my tickets to LCD Soundsystem/Hot Chip/The Swiss.
LCDs final tour aswell so should be a crazy show not to mention my love for Hot Chip

Just got tickets too.  Couldn't afford Splendour so i thought i'd see LCD soundsystem for the first & last time as consolation.  Should be epic!

Went to Goovin The Moo on saturday...horrible festival with a dogshit set up. Was semi saved by Bag Raiders, Vampire Weekend & Yacht Club Djs dropping mental sets....the rest, meh

Went to groovin Canberra Yesterday, no complaints about the set up down here but everyone that went on saturday has been bitching to me.

For me highlights were Funkoars, Grinspoon and an ok set from silverchair.

My cousin worked at the VIP area for both Maitland and Canberra...said the only highlight for her was Vampire...and heard a lot of people were disappointed.

However...after working 11am til 11pm...jumping on a bus to canberra...sleeping for only a few hours, getting up and working again in Canberra at 11am and finishing at 11pm...and then getting straight back on the bus and arrived back in Newcastle at about 7am...I'd be thinking it was shit too. hah.
