As the searing heat of summer slowly leaves us, it is that time if year that we turn our attention to the world of Doof. The Doof survival Thread can be found here.
This thread is designed to be a place to celebrate all things Doof. Post pictures, funny stories, tell us your favourite site, what music drags you onto the dusty dance floor, are fairy wings and hoola hoops so 2004, why does my tongue taste purple, whose dog is this dry humping my leg?
For me doofs have replaced what used to be my underground scene when I first started to go out to parties. Festivals like Livid and perhaps the early years of the BDO were a more eclectic collection of people with a lower population of boozed up "lads" who like to show off their latest southern cross tattoo. Even the secret warehouse raves with their healthy dose of plur and thumbing it to the "man" have been lost to the world of commercial raves set up in huge sporting stadiums. In short that magic has been lost. Or perhaps I am a slightly greener tinge of stone than my youth.
I love the outdoors nature of Doofs. Camping with friends, campfires, BYO everything with no real restrictions (apart from glass) and no more being raped for $8 mid strength beers. Throw in music and just a general happy vibe and I can't think of a better way to spend a weekend. But for how long? Will doofs be over run as the sniffer dogs drive the goodtime boys away from more mainstream festivals? Will kids be forever welcome or will it become more R rated than PG?
This weekend I am off to Earth Freq. If Rainbow is the Oscar's of the Australian Doof scene, then Earth Freq is surely P Diddy's after party. It might not have the same crowded dance floors but it makes up for this with lush grass.
