Quality thread!! A+++++

I have myself tickets to Falls Festival in Lorne with my girlfriend and about a dozen friends which will be awesome,

Was really happy with the BDO lineup this time round tbh, but I'm not going mostly because its BDO... will probably hit up the sideshows for Best Coast, Foster, Architecture, Cage the Elephant and Kasabian

/me loves festival season

[BL4CK1E]

Have a ticket to Sterosonic, Getting my ticket to bdo on thursday night and getting my future ticket soon too..

Going to be a hectic few months.

[1GeKKo3]

I know its not on in summer...but almost worth the effort to get to bris vegas this w/e.....sadly i'll be in newcastle

MAAAAAAAAANNN! i know ay haha... spewin


im trying to get tickets to falls festival! iv wanted to go for ages
i went to pyramid last year, wasnt the best! but good atmosphere

[Ford_Jam]

If you're really looking to go, try Marion Bay obese. It's a little out of the way () and has a couple less acts than Lorne but I'm sure it is worth it

[Bigsmokeee]

been to falls in Marion bay every year except once since i was 16 hasnt let me down!.. convoy of about 60 of us every year 3 days of good friends + good vibes = great times!

haha me and a couple of mates were going to buy an old beat up van and venture over to marion bay on the ferry from melbs. but then people changed plans, and i WAS going to goto hong kong instead.. but then i was hit with good ol financial issues. so now im stuck trying to work out what i should do

[mo0nbuggy1]

should just go to Bali. Sooo cheap.

[obese_oner]

i like the sound of that... but i still have no money wanna lend me 2 grand haha?

[mo0nbuggy1]

If you don't mind sleeping in crappy hotels like me you can get away with a grand, give or take a few hundred, and still have a sick time.
