ahoy hoy
so the SAI fest turned out to be the first festival I've ever been to where i managed to get completely soaking wet. which is mad - seeing as i've been goin to festivals an awful lot for a long time now.
but it wasn't so bad! and the festival was PROPER. Really good buzazz. Lots of high-jinks and skanking. Highlights for moi were DJ/Rupture (obviously), Mike Paradinas, Altern-8 and T-Woc's wooly elephant reggae session. And the MO7s(think thats there name anyway) in the punk tent. Lowlights we re falling in some ditch - total soakage. I was like a Bounty wipe for that muddy water. And losing my mojo - which is my hat. But i soldiered on.
Big up to them Galway heads for laugh-a-minute action once more.
Think i wouldnt mind a festival in Spain or Croatia next though.

story!
yo yo yo...
finally got round to sorting out this schnitzel. I'll be using this blog as a vehicle for rants on music, gigs, dublin shenanigans and whimsical flights of fancy. And no-one will stop (or probably listen to) me. Bless the ego-rubbing powers of the web...
main buzz right about now is the Leechrum extravaganza coming this weekend.
Sliabh an Iarainn festival (www.saifestival.com/) is happening near Drumshambo in Co. Leitrim. That's in the north mid-west-ish of the island. Its situated in a beautiful part of the country on an obliging mentaloid farmers's land. His name is Pious and is a bit of a legend in the area...
Loads of different types of tuneage including a trad/folk tent, a punk as fuck tent, the Worries Outernational Sound System and of course, some of the best electronic acts around.
The Kaboogie input into it is getting the supadupa Dj/Rupture over from NYC as well as
sets from Prince Kong, PCP, Sixfootapprentice and RedMonk btb with meself...
This is gonna be proper.And it looks like it might actually pretend to be summer too...
