I had a great time at Splashy, and this included setting up tent at midnight on Thursday in the rain!!

One reason I almost DIDNT go to Splashy this year, was the apparent lack of 'HARD' bands. On the confirmed line-up I spotted only 2 - GoGoBronco and Contrast the Water. Not bad I guess for what is essentially a family folk festival.

Scared of being bored for 4 days, I volunteered to work behind the scenes on the Grant Erskine stage. I think this area was possibly more refined and I was shielded from the antics this review speaks of!

The shenanigans this review speak of is nothing compared to that experienced at Woodstock. Splashy is honestly like heaven compared to the debauchery that goes down up north. Good times tho, you just need a strong head.

Swearing: Its never sounded cool when a band swears onstage. Almost sounds 'cheap'. If I had kids I wouldnt them to watch a band swearing in and between songs.
