surprising nobody has started a review yet! I guess everyone is still in recovery mode :crazy:
so I thought my body would be in agony after the mental as night at guv/skybar...but I just HAD to regain my battery life for my first boat cruise (other than the one I came on while entering the country :p)
but WOW! :D:D:D:D:D
Sun shining, beers flowing, and the disciples grooving to the funk of two Gods - Luke Fair and Nic Fanciulli.
The 'Fan-Fair' couldn't have been any better...everyone had the same expression on their face before and after - :gsmile: (although I'm sure all of us really wanted it to go on until 5pm as it was publicized...so to the promoters, what happened there? :conf: )
anyway..to start off... LUKE FAIR
I thought him at Footy was one of the best parties for me personally this year but this one goes right beside it. They both were special in their own ways...
but Luke Fair's sound + a summer boat cruise = PARADISE!
(can anyone ID that remix of the classic by Everything But The Girl - 'Miss you'?)
moving on to the man who basically got everyone moving the night before - Mr. Fanciulli. My second time seeing him after him and Sharam at guv a few months ago..well technically my third if you count the night before with steve lawler. He NEVER disappoints..be it radio shows, studio mixes or live sets! I loved his set of the time I was able to catch him the night before...but I was possessed by his sound on the boat. The way he picked up from where Luke Fair left with big room sounds and then brought it back to the groovy, delicious prog funk was phenomenal.
This boat was all about that groove and your favourite people in high spirits. And to be honest, everyone was a favourite.
p.s. Not even a single g'ing out case or at least not that I know of.
EDIT: Can't wait for the SOS Boat Cruise on Aug 3rd. Get your tickets NOW everyone! |

Im pretty sure while on Skybar and laying on my couch afterwards I thought about selling my ticket about 100 times. I was tired and after hearing the first bit of Fanciullis set at Guv I really didn’t care. However I could never really pass up fun in the sun with friends, so had 20 minutes of sleep and was good to go. We ALMOST didn’t make it. Hahaha. We pretty much ran through the parking lot to the boat, we didn’t hear music thought we missed it... we were the last ones on the boat.
The second I stepped aboard I was in awe. The water the sun. Perfect! Lol @ mikey and I for not realizing there was an upstairs for a short while. We finally made it upstairs found a small space to dance and all had a BLAST. Luke Fair was wicked I am officially a fan. Fanciulli’s set was AMAZING!!!!!!! I loved the energy, very very different from what I heard at guv.
I loved the funky boat. <3 (even though i like the river gambler better)
Props to all the soldiers who pulled off the marathon weekend.
And I will now be forever addicted to boat cruises. |

Agreed! This boat was not designed for partying and dancing the way the gsmbler is PLUS the limited open area made the top deck impossible to dance (or move) on |
