Stereosonic  December 1, 2013
What a huge festival Stereosonic has become.
Now spread over two days, there is something for everyone.
Dubstep,house, electro, trance, D + B, techno
It's a great venue for people watching too.
Leather shorts everywhere..... :-)

This pic was taken while listening to Above & Beyond.
Perched above the crowd  on a beautiful Sunday night.
It's also the first day of summer.... so uplifting istening to "Blue Monday" & "Sun & Moon" .
Like heaven in the clouds.



Above and Beyond were playing when this video was recorded.
Sorry for the poor quality audio.(This was taken from the rear stands on my mobile phone).
