The vibe to the show is great. It’s much bigger than anything that would happen in Australia. The only similar event I can personally compare it to is the AEAF that I went to in Sydney last year, which I enjoyed a lot, but it’s not to the same scale as this.

I’ve been awake for over 30 hours as I write this. And the journey started out so well! 
I didn’t sleep well Friday night in anticipation of leaving the following morning. Lots of tossing and turning, and paranoia that the alarm wouldn’t go off. It did… and I was still sleepy. I made got ready to go, paced .... |
