First things first - Coldcut were simply amazing! There I was, smack in the centre of the crowd watching one of my favourite groups performing with one of my favourite mc's, Juice Aleem, an incredible live visual show and fat arse beats through a huge sound system. Easily the best gig I've seen all year.

Cut Chemist did not disappoint either - I was loving his set. Big up all the crew today, was great hanging with you guys outside on the grass. And big up John So, what a funny geezer.

As I had been made honorary fashion police for the day, I would like to pass down the following awards:

To the 22 012 4 ladies who wore leggings, scrunch boots, leggings and scrunch boots and liberal amounts of fake tan, you all looked fantastic.

To the hairdressers of Melbourne who have been sweating over the bleach-blonde tips on the metro-jeffuals, keep up the good work guys... you are working pretty truckin' hard, and this was reflected in the sheer number of guys sporting this great look.

To the candy kids; you have once again taken out the fat-pants award. This record remains unbroken since 1999. Nice.

Bitch session over in 5... 4... 3... 2....

Over and out

What a day. Haven't had one like that in a while

Great event. Stand-out DJ for me was Mark Farina, first half of his set was great. Unfort it was twas held in the courts of Jeff of Duncvillian, but not much could be done about that.

But the highlight for me for the day was just hanging with the peeps and having some much needed random convos with all my favouritist peoples.

So to all and sundry thanks so much for a great day. :D

It most likely rolled down the hill... along with a few others! Once the sniffer dogs were onto it, they would have
a: taken it back to the lab for dna & substance testing.......
b: eaten it (ew)
& no c!
:shaking2:

Hopefully none of the above HAVE occured and you resume normal programming soon!

C.I.A - too right with the descripts, I didn't actually think there would be soo many muzza's out and about, big glasses, same similar Tees and pants.... wow!

Please tell me someone else saw that dude walking around with the extra low slung jeans with the braces and no shirt underneath...

I was like :shock: :? :smt044 :smt044 and took a sneaky picture. Then I see DBoy coming over the bridge the other way and he's seen the guy and gone :shock: too and then sees me taking a picture.

It was a funny moment. You may have had to have been there

I'll post him up tonight though

He deserves his moment of glory :smt043
