rockfotze | Future Music Festival 2009 (Reply)

I love music festivals. I’m what you might call a bit of a “festival whore” as I go to just about all of them around Brisbane/Gold Coast. I trend to go to all the dance music festivals than rock/alternative festivals as I find they usually have a better vibe. But if I can afford it, don’t have other plans and know at least a couple of the acts playing I will probably be there!

Future Music festival on Saturday was a good one. A lovely day so no mud thankfully. I met up with a group of the girls and danced a lot. I managed to lose them when I headed to the front of the main stage but bumped into a work friend anyway. I saw CSS, Grandmaster Flash, N.E.R.D and Basement Jaxx. N.E.R.D weren’t all that great since the sound was terrible unless you were right in front of the stage and I couldn’t see Chad Hugo, my favourite member, anywhere! Basement Jaxx blew my mind, they were incredible!

The best part was the fact I was sensible and didn’t drink too much and so was able to drive everyone home afterwards. I also found myself virtually hangover free on Sunday morning! Oh and I had a lot of cash left over, which is a rare thing for me on a regular weekend, let alone a festival weekend! Very good times indeed.
