Yes, that would be awesome. The dude rocks my world.
Wonder how the trance hippies would take that kind of breakbeat?
From experience, they've always dug it large when I've given them a dose

i never can keep track of whos on where or why or what at rainbow anyhow

but i WAS looking forward to them after dan said i would like....cos there usually aint much i like unless its sunday market stage action...

superheroes you say? where did you hear that?

Kaiproject · Post by **Kaiproject** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 1:41 pm

read about it vaguely on ITM here:http://www.inthemix.com.au/forum/showth ... 655&page=6

on second read dunt think its action heroes, more 'anything goes'. saturday arvo market stage. some mention of sea creatures on page5 too lol

quotes:
you don't HAVE to dress up! But quite a few people do get dressed up saturday night when everyone is dancing the hardest! It's a lot of fun to see all sorts of memorable action hero's appear on the dancefloor. Specifically for those who have eaten too much acied ....................

"I think Monday is going to be a Tops and Tails theme, some people are doing Mustache monday, and Ive also heard of tutu's and an Alice in Wonderland Theme.
I think there are several costume changes from people over the whole weekend. But Monday seems to be the choice day for lots of people."

phhhht > ITM is full of first timers.

anything ALWAYS goes, anytime, anywhere!

Kaiproject · Post by **Kaiproject** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 2:09 pm

That doesn't make it any easier to think of a costume!

hahah..

Will · Post by **Will** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 3:17 pm

The cocktail soiree is on Saturday arvo/evening I believe. Formal dress ESSENTIAL.

ghetto kitty · Post by **ghetto kitty** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 3:30 pm

lets see....

sunday on the market stage used to be semi retired, so beach wear and flower lies etc

there used to be a red tea party and then the collective WE changed it to hot pink, think that was sundays before semi did the stage

im sure there is a bunch of wanna be supermans and hulks from ITM

and now will is saying formal wear on satrudays, but i have never heard nor seen any real formal wear, and plus, who can be fucked? is that just your crew?

I say, go through your wardrobe and a few of your more flamboyant friends wardrobes,
take some bits for outfits and chuck on what you feel like wearing when your up there!

its going to be hot.
its going to be dusty as fuck.
your gonna be on rugs prolly.

suitable items for BOTH sexes include
safari suits, tu tus, crazy hats, wigs, giant sunglasses (MUST), kitcsh aprons, stripy leggins,
pirate accessories and outfits, hawaiin shirts, glittery corsets, fairy wings (only if you absolutely have to), phat rave pants (no PHD hoodies please ;0)
your mom's wedding gown, a cop outfit (great for scaring trippers), plastic horns, megaphones, whistles, flashing bike lights, glowing anything, shaggy gorilla outfit, kids costumes from the $2 shop (youll make it fit when your at camp and you hear a great track on the floor)
a few pool toys and arm floaties, some cap guns and a sherrifs badge, french maids outfit,
some face paint, an indian heddress, a sequined 20's flapper dress, or even better, a debutante dress from savers on sydney rd with HUGE arm poofs and indecent lace.

anything goes...

andy_hoffman · Post by **andy_hoffman** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 4:39 pm

My fashion tip for rainbow. Microdots and some funny glasses

andy_hoffman · Post by **andy_hoffman** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 4:42 pm

Or if you can somehow dress up like this, you'll make lots of people happy...

I saw this vacuum cleaner so many times at random places at rainbow haha... i thought i was imagining it. Then i saw this video on youtube!! Haaaaaaaaha

Watch the posted video on YouTube.

andy_hoffman · Post by **andy_hoffman** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 4:43 pm

But this is what the market stage on sunday is about! Absolute messyness!!

ghetto kitty · Post by **ghetto kitty** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 4:49 pm

dan those photos are gold!

especially the dog at the end.

add one CB radio to the microdot and dorky glasses, and you never want to come home.

or down.

yes to couches on the floor, by sunday i alwasy need a good sit down heheheh

Kaiproject · Post by **Kaiproject** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 5:47 pm

funny stuff. can'tt waaaaitttt

and yeah HEAPS of cool suggestions there kitty, some ebaying required (only problem being unless express post avail they're all 1-6 business days so not guaranteed to get stuff in time

some op-shop visits may be in order this week)

Dan? Who is dan?

dengelman · Post by **dengelman** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 12:14 am

Well, I am Dan. But you are pretty unmistakenly Andy... Maybe Kitty started on her rainbow stash early...

Just back in the country for this one. Pumped up.

Weather looks, well, interesting. Sure the forecast will change. Melbourne BOM forecast says 36 for Saturday (sweet for pool-party, horrible for camping).
Weather.com suggests it's gonna be a cold Saturday night in Beaufort...

I don't mind a bit of rain to settle the dust, but sunshine through the market stage trees for Sunday/Monday needed...

FRI Sunny. Warm. Dry. 17 km/h
NW - 16%
6 30

SAT Mostly Sunny. Cool. 23 km/h
WSW - 54%
11 21

SUN Mostly Sunny. Cool. Crisp. 17 km/h
SSE - 29%
6 19

aroes · Post by **aroes** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 11:08 am

i remember it raining for a few hours a few years back
was wikkid, stopped all the dust from flying round, and made it muggy as, but in a good way
final days now, fukn pumped
we're heading down on thursday for extra super pimp camping spot
big tings

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 11:23 am

i know one of those dudes in the glasses photos

Kaiproject · Post by **Kaiproject** » Mon Jan 19, 2009 11:37 am

burrrrrr this week better go fast...
headin down to the pool soon.... pool party will be awesome on sat as long as there isn't a stormfront or something
how are the shuttle buses to the pool in beaufort if anyone has past experience by the way, long wait?

so do they actually let anyone in on thurs or do you need to be staff/volunteer etc?
regardless can't make it til the fri, is it necessary to get there uber early on fri for a good spot?

kaiproject > usually the shuttle buses are pretty often....and you can usually also drive out to pool party and drvie back in unless your parked in at ya campsite...
you will be fine going up thursday if your just a punter...

me goin early as possible friday mornin...
friday after work is rush hour on the gate and for any camp spots left with any shade...

charlie > YES! i expect to have a date with foxy cleopatra, vodka and parasols. say sunday aruond noon, market stage?
i am also bringing many bubble makers, cos drinking vodka on sundays is better when your being showered with bubbles.

now, you all have better taste in music that your average rainbow hippy, so can you tell kitty what your musical
highlights are and when so i can ride on all o your bandwagons with the set times?
they are on the rainbow site if you havent seen em yet!
