Mate, I am surprised you didn't buy one at the launch, they were 150 there!
Hey Psilo, I heard of a guy who cut his foot open on a can once, so can's can be pretty dangerous too.
Mind you, who would be silly enough to get their foot cut on a can???
Haha. yeah watch out for cans on the ground when you go for a good stomp psilo
.Didn't have $150 spare on that night unfortunately (ah the poverty of being a student!
). I'm hoping these promoters will get back to me today about tickets for $175.http://www.rainbowserpent.net/newsletters/december/december.htm

arranged a limited number of Ger / Yurts for hire. So call your friends and start organising
what will be your 1st class camping experience.
A yurt is a portable, felt-covered, wood lattice-framed dwelling structure traditionally used by nomads in the steppes of Central Asia. They are uniquely beautiful, hand crafted using wood, felt, cotton, horse hair and canvas and intricately designed and painted.

NO GLASS POLICY
No Exceptions!!
Having seen the impact of glass on our previous sites and with our desire to keep our new home safe, clean and free of broken glass, we have decided that we are going to enforce the no glass policy for Rainbow 2010.
Boots/Cars/Esky will be checked and any glass found will be confiscated, so time to start thinking about what you can buy that you like in cans and kegs. We ask that our patrons accept this new policy and please do the right thing and leave the glass at home. In the end, this mostly small inconvenience over a series of years, will keep our new home safe for bare feet, kids and animals and we think that's more than a fair trade off.

heheheh those pics of it looking green plus cotb's comments remind me of Rainbow last year when my friends and I spotted a lush green meadow/grassy area on the outskirts/behind or off to the side of a stage (from memory). It looked so nice and inviting we skipped up to it hoping to sit and roll amongst it but on closer inspection it was just a bunch of green weeds in sandy ground
![:\](https://bluelight.org/xf/BL_Images/Orig_Emoji/wrygrin.gif "wry grin :\")
we all were pretty K'd out at that point though so perhaps our perception was a bit awry (and was probabaly one of those funnier-when-you-were-in-it moments..)Rainbow is officially out for me this year- my bf and I booked flights to go to NZ for 2 weeks in Feb last night so I'm saving hardcore for that. shame you can't do everything darn $$$

So who's everyone hanging out for?
I['m looking forward to checking out babicz, OTT, Tristan, Antix (seen many times though).
Mad professor is good. I saw him ages ago when he played with Lee Scratch Perry. Did anyone else check out that show, it was like 4 years ago. I couldn't understand a word Lee Scratch Perry was saying, and I'm not sure if he understoof himself either.

I have been surprised by DJ's at RSF many times. Ones i wouldn't enjoy in a club situation tend to break loose in the bush environment
Saw the mad professor in Canada and wasn't impressed, that could hopefully change at rainbow

Hi Guys
for those not on other forums to see this. A note and some images shown on other forums in the build up
"... and it's looking amazing, roads being built, toilets and shower blocks going up, stages taking shape! But as they say, pictures tell a thousand words.... so here you go."
Looking towards the front of the Market Stage
Permanent Composting Toilets Under Construction

Still looking fairly green considering, but one thing for sure it looks like an awesome site.
Just makes me want to start counting hours instead of days.
and that would be 364 hrs and 18 minutes
