Overview
With a wardrobe consisting mainly of cute little dresses, ballet flats and tailored cropped jackets, I always look really out of place at punk and hardcore shows. I love going to them, but often catch people eyeing me off with “what is she doing here†looks. But as unsuited to my surrounds as I may appear, I love watching people thrash, shred, sweat, and scream music that is hard and fast and loud. The Flip Out Festival collects all the best new Australian talent and some gems from overseas and throws them together for a day-long music festival at the Manning Bar in Sydney University, complete with BBQ (vegan-friendly), record fair, and merch market. Get there early and grab one of the free Flip Out 2009 CDs with rare and/or unreleased material from every band playing.
Featuring AMP winners EDDY CURRENT SUPPRESSION RING, PINK REASON (USA), GOODNIGHT LOVING (USA), JAMES ARTHUR’S MANHUNT (USA), OOGA BOOGAS, NAKED ON THE VAGUE, THE STABS, SUPER WILD HORSES, ROYAL HEADACHE, ZOND and more.
