Today was a really great day.
I was up early to go into town with Luke and Chris to load up chairs and tables for the Festival.
Chris manages the band The Ploughboys so I was able to pick his brains on how he approaches venues and festivals both here and overseas to get gigs for the band.
After lunch I started to lend a hand making pizza bases for the pizzas that will be sold over the weekend. The target is for 1200 bases which seems like a lot.
I met Col who is the designated pizza dude at the festival and is a complete crack-up. Col, Claire and I spent the afternoon making bases and just laughing and joking the whole time.
After dinner we were back at it for another few hours and by the end we were all so delerious with tiredness and boredom from the monotony of the job that we were just giggling like little school girls. Very funny - especially when someone would roll out a base that wasn't a complete circle and looked more like a "map of Tassie" which Col had to explain to Claire as to what that actually is - haha!
We knocked off at about 9pm and Claire and I went over to the Lunar Stage where a jam was happening so the sound guys could sort out the PA before the festival starts.
I got up and did 3 songs which seemed to go over really well.
It was a really good day. Working hard, having heaps of laughs then finishing off by playing a few tunes and having people like it.
