these thoughts are schooling like minnows in a cloud of silt. Some enter and glow bright against the ash with their sandtunes. Watch them flicker out vernal. let them flicker out. do not chase them. leave it be. They are such proud and beautiful minnows but i am not here for the minnows i am looking through the waters and i need to just let them swim past

Carly Rae Jepsen – Enmore Theatre, Sydney, 26/11/19

[ad_1]

They say Mardi Gras is the biggest celebration of gaydom in Sydney every year, but that’s only because Carly Rae Jepsen had not yet played a show here. Her highly anticipated sideshow at the Enmore Theatre, as part of the ill-fated SandTunes festival, felt like something the whole of Sydney’s inner west was talking about. To the untrained mind, CRJ is just the artist behind that one song…

35,000 Music Fans Expected To Converge On Coolangatta Beach For New Festival ‘Sandtunes’

MUSIC fans from around the world are expected to converge on the Gold Coast for the debut of a new two-day outdoor music festival in December next year.

Council yesterday gave TEG Dainty, US partner AEG and local partner Cross Promotions approval to bring mega US music brand HangOut to the Coast next year.

To be known as SandTunes, the groundbreaking two-day offshoot of the popular US event will play Coolangatta Beach on December 1-2, 2018.

The largest event of its kind to be staged on a Gold Coast beach, the festival will feature two stages and cater for up to 35,000 people on the stretch of sand between Kirra and Greenmount. People will still be able to access the beach and surf during the event.

Organisers estimate the event will generate at least $14m in average visitor spend (about $400 per patron) during the off-peak tourist season.

The Gold Coast Bulletin understands the event will take up at least twice as much space on the sand and foreshore of Coolangatta as Opera Australia’s Opera on the Beach — Aida.

Two councillors voted against the proposal at yesterday’s full council meeting — Division 14 councillor Gail O’Neill and Division 12 councillor Pauline Young.

The promoters secured a five-year deal with a five-year option on condition SandTunes is the only Hangout brand festival in Australia for the term of the agreement.

The exclusivity clause will help ensure the licensed, 18+ festival is a major drawcard with music tourists from Australia and overseas, the same way Splendour in the Grass has powered visitors to Byron.

TEG Dainty president and CEO Paul Dainty told The Gold Coast Bulletin the Coast was the optimal location for SandTunes.

“This will be a destination event exclusive to one site within Australia,” he said.

Mr Dainty said the consortium’s collective experience would help ensure a sustainable and successful event.

The partners will now finalise marketing and ticketing campaigns and develop a detailed site plan through consultation with local stakeholders.

The Bulletin understands SandTunes will be advertised as a no-parking event, with 300 buses to ferry people to and from the precinct. Marine Parade will be closed to traffic on the two event days.

Major Projects and Economic Development Committee chair Cr Hermann Vorster said the festival would inject “tens of millions of dollars” into the local economy “at no cost to council”.

“We get everything we want as a city without having to put our hands in our pocket.”

Local area councillor Gail O’Neill said she strongly objected to the event being held on the beach.

“I love the Gold Coast, I love festivals, I love music events but this belongs somewhere else, not on Coolangatta Beach,” she said.

Deputy Mayor Donna Gates said SandTunes was too great an opportunity for the Coast to pass up.

“We are extremely lucky and this is a major coup.”

THE three-day annual US HangOut Music Festival, known as HangOut Fest or HangOut, is a beach, music and arts festival first held on the public beaches of Gulf Shores, Alabama, in 2010.

The event features a mix of rock, indie, hip hop, and electronic dance music across two stages located at opposite ends of the beach as well as the Boom Boom Tent.

The festival, the first major music festival held on the beach in Alabama, usually takes place on the third weekend in May.

SandTunes promoters: Cross Promotions’ Billy Cross, TEG Dainty president and CEO Paul Dainty and SandTunes production manager Colin Skals.

Acts that have performed at Hangout Fest include The Flaming Lips, Florence and the Machine, Ellie Goulding, Fetty Wap, The Weekend, Queens of the Stone Age, The Avett Brothers, Foo Fighters, Paul Simon, Widespread Panic, Jack White, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dave Matthews Band, Kings of Leon, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Stevie Wonder, OutKast, The Killers, Paramore, The Black Keys and Twenty One Pilots.

The festival markets holiday ticket and accommodation packages from a range of providers designed to encourage music tourists to extend their stay — from options within walking distance of the event site through to others located along easy-access public transport routes.

Sandtunes is set to make its debut on the Gold Coast this year, but they’ve just made a whole lot of important announcements that current ticket holders and people contemplating going should pay attention to.

First off – it’ll no longer be set on Coolangatta Beach, instead being hosted at GC’s iconic Metricon Stadium. The festival claims this is in response to outcry from local residents, businesses and professional dickhead Alan Jones.

Secondly, the tickets have reduced in price significantly – with single day tickets now being available from $129. On top of that, punters can also enter into a payment plan to pay off the tickets gradually.

The festival, which is also now 15+ as opposed to 18+, will go down across two days from 30th November – 1st December. It is being headlined by Logic and Travis Scott, and acts like Carly Rae Jepsen, Juice WRLD, Chvrches, Cub Sport, Tkay Maidza, Alice Ivy, KWAME, Kaiit and more will be joining them.

You can check out the festival’s full statement on all these changes below. They have said that existing ticket holders will be contacted, but they will automatically be upgraded to Pit Zone tickets – which is essentially this festival’s VIP area.

CHVRCHES‘ lead singer Lauren Mayberry has taken to Twitter to slam some of the sexist and misogynistic comments she’s been getting regarding outfits that she wears on stage while performing.

“To the people saying that my gig outfits are too revealing / I shouldn’t dress like that if I don’t want men to comment on it: I disagree,” she wrote.

“This argument assumes women only dress for the attention of men. When I dress for shows, I want to own my gender and my femininity. I want my performance image to be inherently feminine and tough as fuck because that is how I want to pretend to be – to myself, to the women and young girls who come to our gigs.”

“People have tried to weaponise my gender against me since the start of my career as a musician,” she continues later on.

“…It’s not really about what a woman is wearing. It never is. It’s about claiming ownership of women’s bodies and women’s narratives.”

“So I’ll continue dressing like a gothic Power Puff Girl with Big Witch Energy and I hope that you’ll all do whatever your version of that is too. Everybody else will just have to deal with it. My body, my life, my choice.”

Say it louder for those back, Lauren.

CHVRCHES will be back in the country for the fourth time in two years for brand new festival, Sandtunes.
