Stereosonic Music Festival wrapped up its 3rd year of national tours last Sunday in Brisbane. A dozen of the LaLa crew were fortunate enough to get up to the festival and share some pretty special memories. We headed up mid morning and checked into the Medina, conveniently located a minute walk from the Valley and near to the festival ground – recommend for anyone having a night out. The manager on duty was nice enough to allow a pre party with 20 guests in our loft apartment.
The sun came out mid afternoon and we made way to the party. Highlights included catching Bart B More on the outrage stage, Luciano and Ricardo Villalobos playing a surprise back-to-back set, shooting pool back stage with Jimmy Vegas, dancing to resident DJ Daniel Webber, Emma Jeffery being kicked out, drinking Switch’s rider, daggering with Major Lazer, getting sidestage for Calvin Harris, and the Tiesto light show. For all the highlight's check the official vid >
The party continued back at the top floor of Birdee’s with most of the artists in attendance and Carl Cox spinning 5 hours of old school disco. It was the talking point for even the most experienced party hardy’s, being in the ‘top 5’ of our life. I didn’t want the morning to end but reality took a crash when I returned to work (like many others) that day. Ouch!
And if there was ever any doubt towards the headliner Tiesto, lets just say he was a tear jerker...
