TAF 10 - Just Days Away!

Here's the last TAF update email so you know what's what. If you didn't know, its THIS weekend so get ready to shake your Peaches. Even if you haven't RSVP'd please feel free to call in at some time on Saturday or Sunday to soak in the atmosphere.

Times: 'Play' will be pressed at 11am Saturday morning and you're all encouraged to be there for the official start. I've had to make slight changes to the musical itinerary so click here for the final performance times. Karnivool are closing the festival at around 5.30pm Sunday.

Camping: Anyone camping overnight may erect themselves at any stage but expect plenty of abuse and back-seat driving if your erection occurs late. If you are too intoxicated to sustain your erection and help is required, expect the p!ss to be taken out of you beyond the final curtain of TAF. The Crystal Lake / Candy Mountain campsites have both have been freshly mowed and weeded for an uber-camping experience.

Weather: So far the weather front is looking good:
Saturday - Partly Cloudy - 28
Sunday - Sunny - 27
Keep an eye out on the BOM website for updates.

Payment: Those of you that haven't paid yet, just pay me on the day. I won't mention any unpaid names I'll just give praise to those that have paid! Gold stars for : Adam + Bel, Ben, Anne + Nick, Azza + Narelle, Mike + Rach, Julia + Guhl. The CD raffle method is yet to be determined but rest assured for each $25 paid, a CD will be awarded.

Drinks: Beer will be provided at the 'Ah Yeah' Bar onsite: Bottomless cup for $20 or singles can be purchased on negotiation with the Master Brewer, both can be paid to him on the day. All other beverages are BYO. I will have an esky full of soft drinks and water onsite so there's no need to go drinks crazy at IGA if you don't need to.

What to Bring: Remember its BYO everything apart from T.P. and gas so get your tent, meat and drinks ready. All oddball cooking styles and methods strongly encouraged so start marinating and looking for those random novelty aprons now. Might also be an idea to chuck in a pair of tongs too, don't want any burnt snags cos you had to wait! Our local IGA is open all weekend and just a 2 min drive away. Obviously there will be a huge breakfast cook up Sunday morning so bear that in mind if your camping or coming over early. Bring a towel if you plan on showering, deodorant and a clean pair of jocks - remember TAF is a stench free environment.

What NOT to bring: Chairs/Tables - We have heaps!.

In Emergency: If gate-crashing occurs, garden tools and bamboo flares will be provided to ensure they don't stay very long. There is a strong possibility of police presence so tourists/freeloaders, make sure all your immigration paperwork is up to date.

Hopefully that covers everything but of course don't hesitate to call me if you have a question.
