Mate! Besides all the line-up fuck ups and simulations, besides all the goss and the presumptions - This year's EC at Kulkurt (whatever that name means - Philby may know, coz he talked to the landlords when he went to get himself a drink at the bar) has deserved overall a 8 & 1/2 out of 10.
Site: Absolutely spaced-out location and swale like landscape. (Apparently, a negative crater in opposition to the cone-shaped one's, called a Maa, and a mother it was...) Accoustics like you were sitting inside a speaker cone, the camp-site felt like a large native-american tepee town before the yearly gathering and the visuals you got entering the Maa on Friday afternoon upon arrival were releasing wads of tryptamines and other fuzzy feel good chemicals (i am not going into any more details!)
Sound: Fucking AWESOME!!! The Main and the Hydra were equipped with fully blown FUNCTION 1's  (God has one in his drawing room)
The tickets alone were worth hearing these systems go off...
I am talking bass frequencies so phat, warm and sooo stable an ordinary human being not having been to a bush doof before would instantly shit their pants. The mid and upper frequencies so crisp and
defined that it put you inches away from questioning whether you have lived before or you just got born...
No wobbles, distortion can kiss your ass good-bye, no painful, sharp and freak frequencies penetrating the orfices of your bodies but just sound as crisp and as rich as late technology freshly cracked out of an egg...
We sat about 130 metres across, directly lined up with the main stage divided by the little body of water in the middle of the swale, and enjoyed FUNCTION 1's divine sonic delights at full measure at our camp-site whilst kickin' back.
On the floors, the system simply possessed you (even Philby started to sway occasionally...) and we couldn't get enough 
Line-up: As promised by the organisers, the program was more diverse as in previous years which in general could be put down as a positive. However, I would have liked to see appropriate replacement acts for Human Blue and Liquid Soul...(it is over now so we won't whinge about it...) This left the Prog sound short of balance and if it wouldn't have been for J00F, Lish and ultimately our home-grown talents (with production futures...?!), namely Ben Evans, Coomsby and Blinky, I would have sued Spiro and his DanceAid volunteers for what they are worth - cause I made a substantial sacrifice involving many aspects of the life of my partner and myself(and that is putting it conservatively), to be present at EC'07 and to walk away in a blissful high! But these five acts alone, plus a bit of ESP and a bit of this and that and we were satisfied considering all and everything else that was above the standard.(Don't mention the low tables on the stages which made it hard for performers taller than 4 feet to work their stuff without risking a stiff. Don't mention the toilet and showers - it's a bush doof after all. Don't mention the lay-out and the narrow whole in front of the main stage [the art-work and design was brilliant], cause the performers couldn't see us and we could barely see the performers. But what the heck - we were there for the music!!!)
The VIP Club: In all respect to Spiro and the DanceAid boys and girls - this whole VIP Club hype is such a cat-in-the-sack product not worth the paper it is written on and certainly not worth by far the color of the money. I am not going into detail coz this might upset some "VIP's" but say that much - don't be fooled by this VIP scheme, it is the DEVIL's scheme and he tries to suck you right out of your down-to earth decadence and into the "wannabe" world full of bullshit personalities and hard-core cliche junkies that are too fucking dumb to empty their spring-water bottles at home and fill them up with Vodka, Ouzo, Grappa, Schnapps etc instead of handing over massive bucks for shit service in a completely overcrowed environment...stop press! (Simon00 was right - as usual!) The moral: Money can't buy you status!
Why do I know all that??? Because I was dumb enough to fall for it and yes I was a sucker but now I am reformed and do not mess with reformists, they say!!!
Everything else: Fantastic, Marvellous, Mind-Bending, Out-Of-This-World, ...wanting more and wanting it now...
Well done Spiro and the DanceAid Crew - we love you anyway and look forward to EC EASTER'08 in Kulkurt!
