Your most memorable Festival moment or experience? I think playing at the Open Arms Festival last year in Coffs Harbour. The day was ridiculously hot right up until we hit the stage and just then a massive storm rolled in and it poured throughout our set. Everyone just went with it, got soaked and went crazy and as soon as we played our last note, the storm was gone. It was a surreal.
Favourite Artist you’ve seen at a Music Festival? Ah there's been so many, that's way too hard! I'd have to say Pendulum, Nirvana, Sigur Ros, Ministry, or Daft Punk.
What’s your ideal Festival line-up? Ha ha, see the answer above and add MM9!!!
What are your tips for attending Music Festivals? Sunscreen, plenty of water, and go and watch something that you've never seen or heard before!
