"Hey, how're your vibrations.. good?"


Goodvibes. before the rain/sweat. basically,
before the fun.

My first ever music festival; Good Vibrations 2010. Thanks for the ticket brother. Also had a chance to hang out with my brother after he's had a few to drink. That's when he let off that beauty of a quote out the window of the cab. He's much more fun and less grumpy. Anyway, farrout that concert blew my mind. Missed out on the beginning of Kid Cudi, and Gym Class Heroes. Also was a darn shame that The Kililers didn't show up. That would have made it absolutely unforgettable.

But i did get to rock out with Salt n Pepa. Those girls still got it. Played 3 of the only songs i knew, then did a few covers. Surprisingly ended with a song "thanking" god. Good to know He's got His place there too. But we were just getting warmed up. Naughty by Nature stepped it up to a whole new level. Near the front were the crazy fanatics, like the sweaty/greasy white guy who danced like he was a black girl. Next to him the pill-popping group. Then Me. It was hot, stuffy, but that just added to the atmosphere. Couldn't have asked for it any better. Oh! and they recorded a videoclip there! Maybe i'll be in it. My monster of an arm might appear somewhere; something to look forward to.

Then the rain hit. And just like that the party had escalated to a whole new level. People dancing in the rain. Busta Rhymes hit a packed tent. The tens of thousands of people in attendance swaying and bouncing along with him, being pulled along by every rhyme. Girls topless and making out, Busta/Flipmode dropping their pants, his show had it all. Pretty good way to end the day.

I would've added another first to that list, clubbing. The plan the whole day had been, bbq, then good vibes THEN clubs. But someone got sick, blah blah, anyway that was cancelled. Which i think was a good thing. I'm not sure if i could've handled more excitement for one day. No longer a festival-virgin. Hope to see you next year GVF!
