sunset sounds festival

after expensive plane rides to the Gold Coast and terribly annoying train rides to Brisbane it felt like we would never get to Sunset Sounds festival but, when we finally did we weren't let down. the pictures would never give the festival justice 'cause the atmosphere and energy at the festival was better than any picture. 

it was so different in comparison to most gigs and festivals i've been to. it was so chilled out and lovely, no body seemed to be in a bad mood and there wasn't any of that usual push and shove when watching a band/artist (the same went for the toilet, food and drink lines).

there were so many people dressed in such wonderful outfits (although, the pictures hardly show any of these people i'm talking about)and i couldn't stop smiling at how happy i was to be there. 

with this amazing line-up; (Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Moby, Grizzly Bear, The Temper Trap, Bertie Blackman, Dappled Cities, Little Red, Jamie T, Editors, Xavier Rudd, Sarah Blasko, Art Vs. Science, Lisa Mitchell, The Middle East, Oh Mercy, Hungry Kids of Hungary, Yves Klein Blue and many more) there were no disappointments and my only regret that i couldn't tear myself away from one bands set to go and watch another.

one of the main reasons i ended up going to sunset sounds was because it gave me a chance to go and stay in the Gold Coast with my aunty Broni and my little cousins, Jack and Chantelle, who i don't get to see very often.
although i had limited time to spend with them because of crappy flight times and having to spare an hour or two to get to Brisbane for the festival, it was so good to see them. 
we went to the beach both mornings that i was there and whenever we would leave to start travelling to Brisbane for the festival Chantelle and Jack would beg me not to go and come up with cute ideas of how they could come too.
i wish i could of spent more time with them but my bank account and work commitments meant that it was time to go home.
hopefully the line-up is just as good if not better next year and i will have lots of money saved to go up there and do it all again.
