Hi all,

Seeing as more and more people are becoming attracted to facebook as a social
meeting and networking site, I have started up a group for people in Brisbane
and surrounding areas who would like to organise a Brisbane leg of ConFest.

We had some very lively debate about it in April with a lady who is well known
and respected in the Pagan community in Brisbane, and I am serious about putting
these ideas into action as of next week.

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=29367035109

There are two posts on the board on how to get it to work, and 20 questions that
first timers and newbies might have about it.

Hope to see you all on there.


Best wishes,

Dario Western

Hi

On the DTE website I can only view photos up to 2001. As I didn't take
many photos in Confest, I wonder is there a photo gallery place some
where I can reminiscent the event? (similiar to DTE gallery?)

Hey guys I un-mmoderated this group while I was away cause I think it's a
great tool for last minute lifts.

So some junk slipped through

And I would love to know how people went especially the good storiesJ

Or at least ones with happy endings :-P

Dario I cannot begin to describe just how good it was but I will any way.



I headed down a few days early with uncle Fred

Who is a chain smoker and annoys the hell out of people who have any bees in
their bonnet cause he like to stir them up a bit.

Having said that he is one of the most considerate people I know when he not
stirring up the bees.

Even to the point of chewing nicobates till his teeth wore down, getting
magnets taped to his ears and jumping out every stop to have his puff. But
never smoked in the car while I was in it.

On arriving the site was near finished cause it was still done from X-mass.

But more sand arrived and pipes needed doing and workshops spaces put up.

We didn't even have enough spaces on the black boards for the amount of
workshop spaces installed. I think over 300 workshops wow

And the beautiful Rose who is new to this group carried and installed more
toilet paper and lime around this festival than she would use in 2 weeks. In
black beauty or puff the tragic wagon

I love the 2 new vans.

The radio repeater was a treat thanks Paul this gives evey one a good
reception anywhere on the site if you got a radio.

The river was down but highly swimmable. Bliss kitchen and Gypsy Kitchen
where a great feed and I think I left more food at Bliss than I ate. My
tummy is still gurgling cause I had about 3 dinners per day. I don't know
what I was thinking.

I did less this time than most, and had lots a chats, My favorite spot in
car free had all the usual regulars J

I saw about 5 tipis and some people who are part if the next rainbow
gathering coming up.



  First aid where not as busy this time so they dressed up in suspenders and
heals and walked around distributing Condoms and Dental Dams, and you should
have seen what the ladies wore.  not sure if they showed everyone how to use
them but I think they had instruction books too. If you don't know what a
dental Dam is come to the next fest or Google it.

Sydney ConFesters is coming up in a little while

www.sydneyconfesters.org

And I just got back from the site today and the road is looking incredible.
But the blackburrys and grass has been growing like a magic bean stalk.



Love light lafta and stuff

Benjamin ox

Hi,

Unfortunately I missed it the Easter one, as I couldn't find anyone to
go down with. :-(

Did I miss out on much?  Anything special or eventful happen?

I'll try and get down to the Christmas/New Year one.


Love & Light,

Hi Guys
Need that lift to Confest?...wanna reduce that unsightly carbon
footprint and be entertained along the way by Denmarks latest Pop
sensation "The Nielsenz" (Inspired by Aqua
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqua_(band) )

Well step this way and come on down (better than Eurovison and less
cheesy!!)

The plan is depart Sydney Thursday March 20 @ 17.00hrs from Mary Ann St
Ultimo Sydney Au (back of UTS and Ultimo TAFE) then share driving in 2
hour shifts and camp on arrival if needed.

The Nielsens are going on tour in Melb and picking up other performing
artists along the way, and as this is the start of our performing career
we invite all other interested performing artists to participate in what
ever way is good for you.

I shall be documenting all of the trip as I'm now in negotiations with
Telstra to get full sponsorship of the Nielsenz tour.

Important stuff to go in you're tour diary,

Depart Confest on Monday March 24 afternoon or optional March 25 Tuesday
am to be back in Sydney Tuesday 16.00hrs

Your investment for many hours of traveling pleasure,

6 pax Bus hire including insurance and fuel$227.63 AUD return

12 pax Bus hire including insurance and fuel$227.63 AUD return

15.00 hrs is the dead line for the booking as Avis will only hold it
till then....so jump on board and find true love adventure.

Please email or text me on 0417 367 798 as time is running out folks.

Unitl till then Hi Hi!!! or Hejda!!!

Hi there everyone!

I must say that I'm really looking forward to being back in the Confest space
this weekend,
but I need to get there first!!

I'm looking for a lift from Sydney to Confest on either Thursday or Friday. I'm
happy to come
to your local train station at the crack of dawn, bringing a small amount of
luggage, excellent
trail mix and lots of crappy jokes. I'm a woman carrying a small tent, sleeping
bag, etc. and
will put in for petrol for the journey and chais at the destination!

Please contact me at thedynamik@... or call/text me on 0420 530 787
ASAP.

Thanks very much and travel well all!!

hi lovely peoples

for those of you going to the DTE Confest over Easter the forecast is
fine and warm at first,
mid 20's to low 30's and down to low-mid teens at night.
Some showers or rain is possible ( likely ? ) on Monday and Tuesday,
so maybe bring a brolly :-)

I wish to head down for the Easter Confest and I'm looking for a ride
down.

I would like to stay the whole five days and head straight back to
Brisbane afterwards (no stopping at naturist resorts or beaches).

I am willing to contribute about $150 towards the fuel, and can bring
my own tent and utilities.

Please contact me on my email address or my phone at 0732670099 if you
would like to go down (my mobile is disconnected at the present time
and won't be re-connected until around next month).

Thank you for your attention.

Best wishes,

Dario Western

Hello Confest Friends!

I'm a bit desperate to get to Confest this easter and thought I'd give this
email list a shout!

I wanna leave on Thurs night or Fri morning and get back on Monday night (just
starting a new job and cannot get time off).

Happy to chip in for petrol and I have L plates (can drive) happy to help drive
as well.

A little bit about myself  - I am an Indian man and confest tragic, love the
spontaneous choirs and the african drummers.  Have been going to at least 1
Confest a year for about 5 years.  I will have a backpack and a drum potentially
(it's kinda big but I can leave it behind if there is no room).

Here's my mobile number:

04047 40257.

Cheers everyone!

Rana
