hey mate, glad you had a good time. Didn't hear much about it in the local rag. Just this.

KI was probably pumping. How many people turned up for the event?

those f%#kwit attention seeking christian preachers were at it again last night. They tried to sabotage the feast festivals pride march. If the police weren't there, the butch lezzos would have had them for dinner

Priceless lol

nice

On a serious note, it's been reported that these Preachers were extremely abusive and harassing people who were participating in this march, including harassing children. The scary part is these people apart of this so called church, are actually young - eg 30s. It was so bad that Feast organisers will seek legal advice on the matter.

This shit has seriously got to end, these Preachers are doing so much damage to our city it's not even remotely funny anymore. I know the council is doing the best it can do, but more needs to be done urgently to get these foul mouthed hypocrite animals of our streets.

hopefully the state government can do something about them soon.

haha I wish we could just send all of these preachers over to Melbourne, let them destroy Melbourne's tourist and retail areas

The preachers wouldn't have lasted two seconds in Melbourne - they would have been beaten up and abused by all means

Shuz, beaten up and abused by people like this..

I'm going to buy a megaphone and preech about chuck norris. Just for shits and giggles.

I fail to understand how Occupy protesters can be forcibly removed from peaceful 'protests' all over the world yet these Churchies can insight hatred and biggotry without being touched.
Strange world we live in!

Because "Religious Ceremonies" are under a different law from what I understand. Thats what you get from a constituition over 100 years old.

The music festival was huge. There were about 1500 in the tent city, and heaps more that came. I'd say it'd be roughly 2500 - 3000. Only problem was Sealink thought that because we were volunteers, we'd pretty much do a majority of the work for them so they had us working 14-16 hours a day. The leader of Christian Surfers worked non-stop 130 hours in the set-up week. He ate as he worked but it was still very unhealthy.

Apart from that, the crowd practically loved us for what we did. There wasn't any major problems with the crowd which was good and because it was all the way in Kangaroo Island, you wouldn't want to get kicked out after travelling that far. However, there was a lot of weed (being a hippi festival and all) but everybody was well behaved.

The protesters were absolute dickheads though, we had to deal with them burning haystacks in the tent city on 30 degree days, chucking salmon blood into the ocean during the competition heats, trying to steal our AAA passes (a pass that gets people onto the stage) and trying to fight us. I bet you didn't hear that in the Advertiser.
Thankfully, there was only 4 of them and they were dealt with pretty quick.

All in all, for a first-time attempt at this, Sealink did a great job.
