Will there be Aboriginal performances? Because personally, if I was Aboriginal, I'd find it incredibly insuluting if a bunch of white hippy folk were parading around in glow-ware, listening to crappy psy trance using the traditional story of the Rainbow Serpent as the name for an event. Especially when its on Australia Day, my god, thats like the black day of death for the Aboriginal people.

Perhaps you should call it, "The Hairy Armpit & Tree House Festival" ?

haha nice work slade.

is anyone else getting sick of people who sign up just to spam their events? I think we need a seperate promotion forum.

Posted by jizza on Nov-12-2003 03:15:

is it neccesarily spam if the information could be of some importance or benefit to an individual or group.

yeh i get my panties in a twist over spam but i'm not too overly bothered with this type of spam. and i'll say spam once more time for the road.

Posted by escee on Nov-12-2003 03:23:

well the spam would be better spammed in another events spam forum i think. That way we dont need to put up with all the others states spam cluttering actual non-spammy discussion threads.

spam?

Posted by Huebor on Nov-12-2003 03:59:

*sigh* slade at it again.

Posted by calum on Nov-12-2003 04:33:

Line up doesn't look too bad psy-wise

Isn't Dado and Deedrah the same person?

Hey Huey, any chance of any of those psy acts making it to perth for omega abstraction type events??

Posted by Huebor on Nov-12-2003 05:07:

i agree!!

besides... RAINBOW SERPENT?? OooOOoooooo.......... lallalallalallalallaALlalalLAlaa

i can't believe that _finally_ it's almost time again - i've literally been waiting and waiting since the day after the last one finished.... (that's 10 months!!)

bush parties ARE the best - and RAINBOW SERPENT (YAY!!) i think is the best of them!! (along with Earthcore, which I also love tremendously).

ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER ON A 3-DAY WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm not much of a 'raver' anymore, but i'm sure i will ALWAYS enjoy bush parties. sure the music is good stuff, but what i enjoy most of all is the camping side of it in SUCH an beautiful amazing inspiring friendly @mosphere (which despite all those descriptive words is really quite ineffable). i wish the world lived inside one of these bush parties - especially Rainbow Serpent.

after going to the (terrible) 'Full Moon Party' in Thailand, i really think we may have the very best parties here in Australia (especially in Melbourne ).

my only complaint is that they aren't more frequent!! (but i suppose that means we appreciate them even more).

i suppose i'm spamming too now? :P bahahhAHahhAhaaaha

Who remembers this from last Rainbow Serpent? Apparently it�s a fighting dance called Capoeira. To me, I just thought it was amazing kun-fu kinda fighting stuff � it all looked so very surreal!!!!!!!!

Very much hope they�re back for next year. (They were hot!!!!!!!) ((And man, it was so so surreal!!!!!!!!!))

Posted by JulesPLees on Dec-08-2003 06:08:

As evil as you are Teknoscaper....that was one of the funniest things I have ever read.

Yea that's capoeira.. it's a form of martial arts developed by slaves in Africa or Brazil.. can't remember where exactly. Started as actual fighting and developed into a type of dance.. pretty cool stuff.

and corrie don't mind escee. As long as it's dance related and someone here benefits it's ok.

How about we re-name Australia day to something different. That way the aboriginal community wouldnt feel like the 'black day of death' is almost here.

How about..... ummm....

Invasion day.

*sees an aboriginial* hey mate, happy invasion day!.

See, that has a nice ring to it.

OK, im a dick. But im at work and im bored.
