Strokes were good. Florence was entertaining enough. Massive crowd loved her anyway.

Amphitheatre was fucking packed tonight. I'm glad I decided to skip Laura Marling so I got there early enough to avoid the shitfight.

Paul Kelly killed it today. Ampithetre was absolute chaos before Florence/strokes, I thought there was going to be no chance of us getting in what so ever to see the strokes, so ended up settling for band if horses, then walked back into ampithetre with no trouble and caught about 90% of the strokes. Massive win. Let down is that everything basically ends at midnight, with a 1am lockout on the bar stages and only shitty trance with dirty hippies getting all up in yo grill. So now I'm staring at the roof of my car.

Making the trek back to Brissie. I go to uni on the Sunny Coast so I'm used to the drive and we rarely stay for headliners. Only been taking us an hour and we're yet to hit any traffic along the way.

Fuck I wish I could have seen Paul Kelly.

I really wanted to hang around the GW stage all day then make my way to the amphitheatre during the end of Florence, but I figured it would shit me too much so I'd end up going home instead.

LCD Soundsystem WILL return to Australia

After the amazing shows they've just played around the country, rumours that LCD Soundsystem may potentially be disbanding have been squashed at Splendour.

The band did hint at the possibility of returning to our shores while on stage in Melbourne and didn't say anymore. However, the big news dropped when Pat and Nancy swung by the triplej backstage broadcast right before their festival set to confirm with Zan...

"We can't tell you any of our top secrets but we'll be out for at least another year from now so I can't imagine that we wont come back to Australia because we really enjoy playing here".

Pat assured Zan again that it definitely won't be the last time we see LCD in Australia.

We'll make sure we let you know when the band are back in the country so stay tuned to music news.

Touring band in "we'll return to australia soon" shocker

Well considering they were supposed to be calling it a day after this tour, it is a bit of a shock tbh.

Can't wait to hear some stories about the weekend. I'll hopefully get a ticket for next year.
