Splendour In The Grass

I managed to scrape together the measly $500 (now $390!) for a ticket and I have my bags packed for 3 days time when such acts as Kanye West, Coldplay, Jane's Addiction, The Hives, Kaiser Chiefs and Modest Mouse grace the Woodfordia site.

Overview

There are no excuses. I am sick to death of hearing people say, “Oh, I have no money for Splendour”, maaate I have been down to my last dollar at least 6 times this year. I managed to scrape together the measly $500 (now $390!) for a ticket and I have my bags packed for 3 days time when such acts as Kanye West, Coldplay, Jane's Addiction, The Hives, Kaiser Chiefs and Modest Mouse grace the Woodfordia site.

I'm pleading a case that up until this year has sold itself; Splendour is notorious for selling out lightning fast, but for some reason, this year's tickets are still available at a discounted price. It's confusing because it's potentially the best line-up the festival has seen in years (please don't hurt me). The Woodfordia site is equipped with everything...it's like a mini hippy community. If you squint your eyes and are slightly inebriated, it might even feel like you are at Woodstock circa 1969. If the self-sufficient drawcard isn't enough to wipe your diary at the end of the week, maybe the appearance of Wikileak's ostracised founder Julian Assange via satellite will spark your interest? Or what about the possibility of a Kanye dummy spit? C'mon, you know you want to. Beg your mum/dad/partner/friend with benefits (monetary, of course!) for a few hundy and get to Splendour for 3 days of terrific music and events. You can bet you're bottom dollar that you won't be wasting a cent.
