It was great Infusion were a highlight = so underrated. Caught some of Spiderbait, Johnathan Wall, Bexta, System, Freestylers (did my head in), Coxy (good but played a bit differently to what I expected), Beasties & Chem Bros who were awesome of course, but by that time the whole place was just so packed, it was hard to enjoy it. They all played for the masses which I guess is what they were there to do.

Not sure where the day went actually.. Myles what was the prize you won from Virgin?? Damn Slipknot

Was an awesome day, Infusion were definately the highlight, without a doubt "Australia's best live act". Awesome bass lines, dirty, exciting and funky as f*uck Crowd were loving it. The only thing i can fault them on is that for the crowd they were playing to I felt they had too many break downs which lasted a bit too long, which sorta lost the crowd for a bit, but you didnt see me complaining.

Caught a bit of Bexta, i hear you Sydney people complaining, but i think if you were to come down here and hear Melbourne's hard trance/hard nrg in the likes of Midro, you'll curl into a ball and vomit. From what i heard of her, I'd say it was more solid/banging trance rather then hard and fast, just my opinion.

Freestylers were ugly, they really need to master the art of freestyling a lot better, either that or stick to one genre and learn that. 'Push Up' had a totally different feel to it being played live, but got over it after the first minute, all in all they did my head in. As a friend quoted, Freestyling is just a cover up for their lack of talent.

Next up Carl Cox, was very suprised, was hoping to hear a tech set, but instead got house/prog house. He played Reflekt - Need to feel loved(Seb Fontaine remix??) which was awesome, he lost me when he played Mylo - Drop the pressure, but was still able to appreciate what he was doing with the crowd, I dont think I've ever seen a DJ work the crowd so well, he had total control of the masses, and they were loving it. Was he originally from Melbourne, because when he jumped on , he said "it's good to be back in my home town"

All in all was a great day, which flew bye too quickly.
