so...did you all have a jam-packed weekend?
I only made one of the mentioned events in my previous post but it was still fun=) if a little disappointing in comparison to the first event like this that was held a while back.

Converse...this little idea that you have made big through free tickets (every body loves free things) is rather brilliant...just one leeeeetle problem, there should have been at least 1000 more tickets. you know Cape Townians...when do they ever do what they say they are going to do. there were far too few people at the event this time around and one can blame the freezing winds or the fact that there were so many other events on that night but it needs to be taken into account...coz it kinda killed the vibe.

The venue itself was great, nice and big and open and the sounds from the three stages didn't mingle with each other and it was literally like walking into different worlds when you hit the various stages. I must admit, the line-up left much to be desired. there was absolutely no consistency. the chilled sounds of Beatenberg and Holiday Murray were great but it didn't really fit in with the whole night. don't get me wrong i love them but it was just weird. honestly the only set of the night worth mentioning is the magician that is Toby2Shoes...seriously that man can make anything work...people were jamming so hard and it was the first time all night there was some kind of energy to the crowd, pity it was right at the end.

aside from the weird vibes the entire set-up was slick...fun lamp mazes, a very kitsch bed that you could get your picture taken on, the bull riding from the last event and THE BEST THING...sumo wrestling....i noticed this bit as a 'midget' (possibly just a short human/child) was jack russel humping a tall mans face while both were dressed in sumo suits...absolutely incredible! the bar was reasonably priced and the staff knew what they were doing which was a nice change from most events!

all in all it was a great event but, honestly, had there been a charge on the tickets and had i paid for it i would have been extremely disappointed.

that's all for now, happy reading and see you on the floor=)
