Planet Funk, Junior Jack & Kid Creme @ Metro

First time out at an over-age event and it was fucken crazy. Just mad fun house music from the duo, having been blown away by Planet Funk live.

Soul of Man @ C-Moogs, Byron Bay

These guys played for 2 hours in the puny club while on schoolies. 2 hours of crazy driving breaks, with Alex Dolby - Hazy Way (Evil 9 Mix) as the finale - fucking mental dancefloor moment

They fucking rocked!!

Danced until I couldn't walk, was smiling the whole time, they had this habit of giving you a 5 second break where you considered getting a drink and then they would drop in a huge bashing track that made the feet start up again.
