Seeing as there's a healthy Australian contingent here, I thought I'd ask: is anyone planning to make it to Wintersun?

If you haven't seen Deke Dickerson and the Eccofonics, DO. Incredible musicians, and very entertaining stuff. It looks like there's tons of bands from out of the country, and all over the country, playing this year. I wish I could make it but my mother is coming out from California to visit and it wouldn't be fair to her to make her spend her trip at a rockabilly festival Smile

I've been to Wintersun every year for the past 4 years or so and I love it! Not to mention that my birthday always falls within the Wintersun week, which means it's a pretty awesome birthday party! I don't think I'll make it this year as a play I'm in opens during the Wintersun week. Slim Jim played at Wintersun last year, and Wanda Jackson.. I think that was my fav year yet!

Oh yeah, that could arranged. What are the dates?
Do we get VIP treatment, backstage passes, gift bags etc? Not that I expect it...no actually I do! And red velvet cake!
Cheers Pete.

The dates of what Pete? Wintersun is May 30 - June 9.. If I were to go I would go June 7 and 8, as that's my day of birth anniversary.. plus Wes Pudsey and the Sonic Aces are playing the 7th and I LOVE THEM!

My play opens June 9 (I know I said 11th before but I was wrong), closes June 12.. with 3 shows every day..Haha, I don't even think the actors get VIP treatment! Razz
