So who are the Festival Ladies? They are Ambascamba, Carlsberg, Gemdilem, MrsPop, and Poleski. They go to festivals and blog about it. Often they will Twitter live from the event. They like to cause chaos, be hardcore, and rant about the lastest fashion. They like shiny things, smuggling alcohol into festivals and Jimmy Pop.
Ambascamba
“My favourite festival ever was Cockatoo Island/Great Escape, but it doesn’t exist anymore so I suppose that’ll teach me to pick favourites.”
Carlsberg
Admirer of ‘Princess’ and Southern Cross tattoos. Spreader of unsubstantiated rumours. Pioneer of boot/ vodka smuggling technique. Most hardcore of the Festival Ladies due to ownership of all-black shoes purchased in Japan. World champion death-starer.
“My prime festival years may have passed, but this will not prevent much future ranting.”
Gemdilem
Stalker of bands via Twitter. Sustains the most injuries in the mosh pit.
“If I had a time machine I would go back in time and relive Homebake 1998. How good was Aussie indie rock in the 90s? When bands like You Am I, Spiderbait, Powderfinger, Frenzal Rhomb, Jebediah and Grinspoon were at their peak and Custard, Tumbleweed, Pollyanna, Ammonia, and The Superjesus still existed.”
MrsPop
Causes trouble instantly. Drinks jager. Extensive South Park knowledge.
“I know almost nothing about any bands which are not Bloodhound Gang…”
Poleski
Pole-like foreigner of the correspondence team. A fan of mud, gumboots, ginzz, supervising MrsPop, critiquing the lastest Modular fashion (via death stares) and unintentionally causing havoc.
“I do not believe in printing out festival timetables…”
