bam bams only got a set at this event cause hes been on the sprung johnson for the last 6 months, personaly i recon the promoter has the job to
promote the event to artists aswell, i can only see suck asses going up to the event organiser asking for a spot, also sprung asked who everyone
wanted to see and the 750s btes ect were on every coment basicly, i just dont see why a artist should go outa his or her way to try get on the bill
the promoter should no whats goin on and get at the "underground" heads as you call them, lineup sucks ass, say no to kerser
free balboa
free madfx
free ozhh
there is a difference between honesty and trolling
if you have a firm grip on a rappers nutsack i will let you know

Wasn’t the consensus in another thread that Kerser was at the opposite spectrum of what triple j likes? Now a triple j supported gig gets announced
with Kerser on the bill and people still suggest it’s too triple j orientated and not underground enough?

Festivals need to make profit otherwise they become heatwave, i have no problem with booking headliners for that.
Would of been nice to see some underground acts - maundz/k21/chasm/lazy/strut/goatmob/dwc - get slots if revenue was covered.
Good to see mase n mattic getting a slot though.
But yeah if you dont like it dont go.

Pretty well rounded if you do the numbers. Sure, if I was putting the bill together I would have made it a priority to get DWC, Maunds and Trem on
there (all had massive releases in the last 12months), but I stopped putting together bills a looong time ago. About when my tastes and the general
punters' became too far apart.

^^ Well summarised, Joe.
No-one is ever likely to fund a purely 'underground' large-scale festival again. There have been various attempts (some successful, some partly
successfully, others that failed before they really began) but to expect a festival organiser to "keep their ears to the street" or what-have-you is a
bit far fetched.
Like Joe said, they balanced it out pretty well IMHO.
I am also a bit confused to not see some names on there (Maundz, Jake Biz, Rainman, K21, Tommy Ill etc - all with recent albums of note) but hey, they
probably only have so much budget allocated for interstate flights/accom etc. They're running a business and not a charity, after all.
And this news just at hand / Sorry for not trying to change the world through raw urban expressionism and thoughtful upliftment, but sometimes you
just have to write a track about throwing shit at cunts / P.S. RIP Alan. Your casual gait, and sensible yet stylish taste in shorts and long socks
will be missed by all / In my youth, I wouldn\'t have predicted that the high point of my adult life would be exposure to a t-shirt depicting
Putin as a unicorn. But here we are./ Got half you blokes laughing at me, other half starting on me, julie wanting me money, i mean jesus whats the
point of even being straight i mays well just choof drink snort what ev / Gotta thank those vikings and all those years of gene mixing thanks to
pillaging and rape...both get a bad rap in these modern times but look what it brought us / All you swag fuckheads need to stop putting out mixtapes,
pretending to be people anyone gives a fuck about, donate your cool hats/hoody and kicks combos to the salvos and shut your fucking cuntholes / I felt
a bit dirty finger banging her right there infront of family but im pd so i said fuck that shit and kept going / Whilst u morons are trolling us old
geeks were balls deep in you young gf's anus. lenses all fogged up and sht. Weezing.

I always mention this and I will ask again as I can't remember, but was was the turn out at Park Jam like all those years ago? There were some fairly
raw, underground (at the time) acts, battles and some bigger names on the bill.

Well under capacity. But would have filled somewhere like the corner hotel.

You raise a good point there about Rainman, Jake Biz and Tom, all local, renowned professionals on stage and have recent releases. Plus I'm sure they
wouldn't be chasing a huge fee to be a part of something like this.
Maybe they'll do a second "Local" announcement like last year?

^^ Yeah, I sort of wondered if there would be a second announcement like you say. Was scratching my head a bit, trying to remember how long the
performance list was last year, but couldn't really remember.
Maybe Dwiz can shed some light on this?
Edit: I think the good thing about Sprung is, for artists like the ones I mentioned, is that (if they even want to be a part of it) "there's always
next year". I was very impressed with how well it was put together last year.

In a funnier alternative universe I like to imagine there would be two stages and a bunch of Illy fans are tripping balls and they get separated from
their friends, end up at stage 2, freak out cause they are missing HTH or something and then they are suddenly in a sweaty front row mosh of a stage
colab between Jake Biz, Tornts, Muandz, Briggs, etc and it sends them into a nervous breakdown.
Purchasing Omega Replica Watches To Remain Fashionable. Compared with the high degree of authenticity of Omega watches prices they are effective
alternatives to truly appreciate the beauty of luxury. Can firstly that the cost of a genuine Omega clock as much as $45 while the cost of a user
replica as a fraction the former is. If you are looking for accessories to your everyday look chic and improve the social status look no further than
the Omega replica watches. Make sure you set the focus to the crowd.

Haha, this is kinda what happened last year from what I heard. Two stages side by side with underground acts doing sets in the "changeover" time
between the more mainstream acts. So people who wanted to be at the front for 360 had to sit through Jake Biz and vice versa. Really good idea I
reckon, exposes the general public to some real (sorry, more traditional) shit and gives guys like Bias and Lazy the stadium size crowds they deserve.

Actually the story is even better if there is a black hole, vortex or other type of space time continuum problem and its 1998 and the front row is
full of charged up writers and wannabe bikie noms. Then they have the nervous breakdown.
brb... writing a novella about this.

They obviously couldn't afford 360. As a promoter you would want him at the festival

I think he was there last year. Not sure. I know they wanted to try to keep it new each year.
Edit: Haha. Wait, nah. He was definitely there.

Word prob could have worded that better, no shots, I don't think Lazy or Trem would necessarily want to perform at these things. Or at least I
wouldn't automatically assume they'd want to. Especially down the bill like they had lazy last year. They can promote there own shows and get a big
crowd. Jake Biz just dropped a album called commercial hell so is it possible he wouldn't want to play it? it used to be common for underground
rappers to shy away from commercialism. The artists here are basically billed in the order of units sold of the flyer. which is logical I guess
from a commercial standpoint.
Its not a shot at anyone on the bill at all Dwiz, Ive known BamBam longer than Ive known anyone in the music scene and he's sound. He was at my
wedding, been a commercially viable artist doesn't make you a bad person. It's just a interesting thing that everyone assumes everybody would want to
play the event.
