Looks sick! I'm always down for a good music festival, I can't even imagine one on the coasts of New Zealand
the full show was filmed for production but it is not out yet. I knew it was limited tickets and supposed to be far off the beaten path. I had no idea...there was maybe 200 people....it was an hour drive from the nearest small village..30 minutes down a gravel road...then down a beach road along a black sand beach. it was a freaking awesome weekend..sun..light breeze..world class surf break..(Tora shipwreck break)...waves were up. Lots of very cool people...kids running around..dogs loose...it was on the farm of a professional fisherman so they were bringing in lobster, fish and paua(abalone) a few times a day. Free food. here is some music ive found and I was surprised at how very very very good the music was. The bands all camped all weekend too..I met some very cool people and got righteous. I also drank a full bottle of Jack Daniels single barrel. Along with a few assorted craft beers. ill start with the last band..they were under another name as it was just Imon (screenleft) and king homeboy(center) they started at midnight and played till 3am... they must have made this one song last for 20mins
this is a clip from the local access radio station. My partner (fiance) produces shows here and sits on the board. she been in radio almost 20 years.
there was a clash cover band and a pixies cover band. Ive seen both bands and they were spot on covers.
