Our first real 'night out' in Sydney proved to be as fun and spontaneous as I had hoped. After a truly fun filled day with Steve-O - drinking our way through Newtown, eating delicious thai, and stopping in every vintage shop along the way - eventually led us to the Sydney Festival where Bon Iver was playing. Unfortunately, I could only get one ticket, so I had to leave Jess's sorry ass in the beer garden while I popped inside the amazing Spiegeltent to catch a few songs. The band definitely lived up to the hype, as they rolled through their catalog with the faux starry sky behind them. The room was small, 200 people at the most, and Justin sounded fucking beautiful. We ended up chilling with the guys after the show, attempted to see MMJ at some club, and swallowed some cherry pop rocks we picked up at Happy Herbs. Was a great fucking night. Needless to say, the thought of jumping on the train and heading out to Big Day Out for the day was a little frightening this morning, but another glance at the lineup put me in the right head space. Hot Chip, Ting Tings, Lupe, MMJ, TVOR, Neil Young, Holy Ghost, Ajax, and a shit ton of other amazing acts are the only thing on my itinerary for the day. Life is pretty fantastic right now. Check out QuietColor.com tomorrow for a full review of the festival. Until then, happy friday suckas!
