More from Laneway

So I got heaps of emails and comments saying "why did you stop talking about laneway??" so here's a bit more from the best festival I have been to. (yeah I said it)

The night before Laneway I had four hours sleep and wasn't feeling crash hot. Lanewy rescued me by ony serving Tiger Beer. Good Beers are better on a hangover.

After Jack Ladder, went and caught the end of the John Steel singers. They rock! Had great stage presence and energy. At the end of their set they fill the stage with randoms and give them assorted musical instruments. They guy playing the glockenspiel. Wow.

John Steel singers- Rainbow Kraut



After that more drinks were had and wandered around, went to the markets and spoke to a lovely lady selling jewellery. Actually that was a little odd.... Tried to go to Port o Brien but there was a line. hence more drinks.


Later I saw a band called Temper Trap who were surprisingly awesome. I had no idea who they were but their sound was a cross between Phoenix, and U2. pretty awesome combo. Turns out the drummer is Amy's cousin which is cool. They are playing V fest if you want to get me a ticket.

The Temper trap- Sweet disposition


Next up was Architecture in Helsinki. Not only do they have a cool band name, they have a saxophone section and some awesome tunes. Most would know Heart it races which was great, but all their songs are so much fun. such a good way for the sun to come down. Girl Talk cameoed for a rap, and they did a cover of nothing gonna break my stride. I love that song.

Architecture in Helsinki- do the whirlwind Not the best known of their songs but it's bitchin. Loving the cartoon film clip that reminds me of this crappy internet game that I used to play called Sushi chef where you make sushi. It's a wicked game get involved.




Enough from Laneway it was amazing but i don't think you hould go. Any more people and i would have been writing about terrible drinks/bathroom queues and wouldn't have acutally seen any of the bands I have mentioned.

bye!
