Hanging Rock car park was crap last night...3 hour get out of car park crawl

Great gig

Worst ever night otherwise

Springsteen night there was perfect; got fooled this time

Farnham Gaso ?

 

[Snake_Baker]

I doubt I will ever go to a gig at a winery.

 

[Snake_Baker]

The making of a libertarian.

Very smart kid.

Farnham Gaso ?

Elton John

Someone double booked dates so 4 of us bought them months ago.

The whole Springsteen event was awesome and I was back in bed by 1am after having dropped mates off at Euroa even.

So I just assumed we would be right and got there in 1 hr 45min.

During show go to loo. Leave enclosed area and it’s a free for all outside. Drunks falling over, people sneaking in to front area, water ran out, toilets so wrecked it was vomitus...it had all the feel of a cost cutting understaffed event

Concert starts at 7.30 and finished at 10.00ish.

Takes 30 minutes to walk through an exit area that funnelled from 100m down to 4m. It was a shuffle with a couple of obnoxious drunks. Again a recipe for a disaster.

Get to car park and then sat there until 1am.

Get to the exit and there are 20 hi vis 15 year olds waving cars out....wat

We found out that they exited Car Park by Car Park.

Iirc they didn’t do that at Springsteen. It was all out at the same time with one way roads set up.

Anyway long story was in bed at 3.15am.

And there isn’t a Winery at Hanging Rock Tef. Maybe you could visit and have a Picnic.

Got family at New Gisborne Gaso. Next time bring the tent and camp

Yeah. I know the area well. Just commenting on the prevelance of winery type gigs these days.

You should have taken a tent & stayed the night.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Well it looked like it one point

Ironically this was taken at midnightish

View attachment 811604

Plenty of places to hide up there.

There won’t be a next time

Last night put me off Outdoor Shows for ever.

I am hoping Springsteen plays a Melbourne Gig if he comes back

Elton John

You deserved to be stuck in the car park for 3 days. Elton makes * finals record seem ok. When's the last hit he had 1974?


Mincing old ponce has been bleeding punters dry for years.

I thought I made it clear we had the tickets provided to us an option to attend due to a double booking.

You will be glad to know that it is his last tour...ever...unless he's a Farnsey who I will forgive because he BFNAAK

"clear" probably isn't my current strong suit. Ya still went

...don't mess with me today.

I am in a Once Upon a Time in Hollywood mood.

A song for the people who built this great nation on "Straya Day"

Denzel Currys cover of bulls on parade was epic, but I don’t like covers being in the hottest 100. Should’ve been his track RICKY

A song for the people who built this great nation on "Straya Day"

One of my all time faves - VERY under rated song.

I included it in a few of my early trivia nights and would be lucky if one of two tables knew who sang it. Always surprised me.

This Coronavirus ? pandemic is getting scarier by the day, hope they get a vaccine up and going pronto

Vaccines usually take 8 - 10 years. Aussies working overtime to develop in 6 months Mutts. Big ask.
Fortunately we are world renowned in the medical field in all aspects so fingers crossed.
Trouble is where the outbreak is and the population size of China. Good transport, burgeoning wealthy who travel, lunar new year where everyone travels.

Ebola ? Poor country where people are lucky to travel 100 km's from their village. Little money, poor transport, poor roads. So easier to contain the spread.

Interesting field infectious diseases. Still have outbreaks of plague in places like lndia.

Climate change is starting to look ridiculous, so they have to get something else on the front page to keep the frightened masses enthralled (and buying).
