ALL THANKS T O EVERYONE:
The 12th Annual Meredith Music Festival was a resounding
success. Organisers are delighted to report that although
it was the first festival on the new site, it was actually
the smoothest one in the events history. And one of
the best.
THE TALK:
Lots of comments about the new site being better or the
same as the old site (a compliment in itself). Lots
of appreciation for the superb operation at The Gate
nobody waited long at all to get in. Lots of people digging
the Pink Flamingos familiar location. Lots of people
digging Sunset Strip how good was that sunset huh?
And The Meredith Eye was the biggest hit since Combo La Revelacion.
How good! Friday Night was a blast. Tai Chi was massive, The
SportsField was in constant use, the International Food Court
had variety and short queues, and what about the artists?
Crikey.
Organisers wish to extend a giant THANKYOU KINDLY to everyone
who came, and conducted themselves superbly over the weekend.
And cleaned up!! The site is a functioning farm, so to see
all those campgrounds clean as a whistle Sunday night was
exemplarary. Aunty Meredith gives you a gold stamp, a sloppy
kiss and a hug into her massive bosom.
THINGS TO FIX?
The dust. Well be addressing that, theres many
things that can be done. More shade. Well do that too.
Tai Chi should be longer. Water more cheap or even
free drinking water around the place. Yep. More stubby holders
yep. Make sure the starter and commentator of The Meredith
Gift can actually see the starting line. Ooops. Thats
what you call a teething problem, yes it became a farce. Congrats
to Jarrad Red Cap, although whether it will be an official
victory is yet to be decided; the Meredith Elders are still
locked in debate on that one. The Flamingo should open later
we agree. Closing at 3am was a condition of our licence
as decreed by the Liquor Licensing Commission and caused more
problems than opening later ever would have. Better info re
Public Transport yep. More girls Meredith Tshirts.
More Womens toilets. More showers. Make the closing time for
the Bottleshop well known in advance.
THE RULES:
We want to make very, VERY clear The Rules for future Merediths:
- NO GLASS just dont bring any, please. Some
fools did.
- NO DOGS we cant get insurance cover for animals
of any kind, plus there were some very freaked out mutts
there lost, hot, confused, aggressive dont
bring your dog to Meredith. You wont get in any more. Sorry.
Even if your dog is the nicest, best-behaved dog on the
Eastern Seaboard and you take full responsibility for her/him
- sorry, you still wont get in.
- NO BEAN BAGS those little foam beads dont
mix well with the natural environment when the bean bag
breaks.
- 20 km/h SPEED LIMIT is safe, and will help stop
the dust.
Soon we will post a heap of great photos that were taken.
For now, if you have any comments or feedback or Lost Property
inquiries good or bad go to Ask Aunty Meredith.
We love feedback, ideas, criticisms and suggestions. Dont
be shy whether its one word or a long story.
Thanks again, Meredith wouldnt be Meredith without
excellent Fun-Lovers like your very good self.
Aunty Meredith
