BEFORE TOO LONG
Yes, we are There Yet. The Nineteenth Annual Episode of Merediths own Meredith isabout to unspool in full technicolour 4-D glory. For Those About To we look forward to
The Pleasure of Your Company.
IVE DONE ALL THE DUMB THINGS
Meredith goes for three days and is outdoors so you HAVE to plan ahead (likenow). A
pdf called The Pocket Companion has everything you need to know to Make Your
Meredith, including Map, Playing Times, Directions, Rules, Handy Tips and a
comparative overview of marina berths on the Eastern Seaboard.
Looking at the weather you need to bring warm and waterproof clothes and plenty of
them. That doesnt just mean a jumper that means a few jumpers, warm coat, beanie,
thermals if youve got em. Theres a chance of showers (as opposed to rain) so a good
raincoat and boots are essential as is a quality tent that dont leak. The nights will be cold,
so you will need warm bedding, extra blankets or doonas. However Saturday and Sunday
should be fine days in the main. The site will be the greenest its been for the festival for
at least ten years.
HOW TO MAKE GRAVY
Whilst Meredith might feel like a sovereign dominion (her own country) the usual laws
apply within as they do without. Likewise, the laws of the human body apply the same
there as anywhere. To that end, you need to know: no fires, no glass, no cooking, no gas
bottles, no flares or fireworks, carry photo ID, trespassers will be prosecuted, wear your
wristband at all times, no stage diving moshing or crowd surfing, bring plenty warm
clothes and sensible shoes, bring enough cash, check the tent now to make sure its in
good order, and please look after yourself and others.
FROM LITTLE THINGS
The new, massive, shady campground called Bluegums will be open, however its not yet
in ripping nick. It needs a floor. It is a plantation of bluegums, the canopy of which has
blocked light and moisture from reaching the ground, hence, no grass no groundcover.
Bit dirty love. You are very welcome to camp in there but if you plan to do so please
bring some spare tarps to peg on the ground, or old carpet or somesuch floor covering.
FROM ST KILDA TO BUSH CAMP
We highly recomend and encourage Meredithians to hire a Chartered Bus and driver to
get there and back. Or hire a small bus and designate their own driver. We have put in
sometips and protocols to make this even easier. These are also relevant to friends and

relatives dropping off and picking up. We respect the work of Victoria Police who have
booze and drug buses set up before and after the festival as they do for many events. Get
there and back safely.
Yurts are amazing things. Stood for centuries in all kinds of weather in Mongolia,
Afghanistan and Pakenham. You can hire them at Meredith they are not cheap but they
are incredible. Couple left nowgo here for details.
THE MOST WANTED MAN IN THE WORLD
Coupla things that needed to be addressed will be addressed this season. The first isa ban
on raised furniture in the amphi. This means couches that have extended legs built on or
are on raised platforms are banned from the amphitheatre. Theres also a ban loud on
annoying your neighbours with loud music in the campgrounds. Meredith has always had
a No Dickheads policy and its time to just ease that into further effect in a coupla places.
LEAPS AND BOUNDS
Tickets are in the form of wristbands this year. There is only one type of ticket aFriSatSun which gets you Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Friday will start a half day
earlier (gates open 8am Friday, dont come earlier as roadblocks are in place) so you Get
More Meredith in 2009. With the new campground and the speedier wristband gate
scanning system, everyone will be in and happy in good time. Live music will start
earlier than previous years at around 4pm.Please note that Crocodiles have cancelled their
Australian Tour due to family illness. The fantastic Witch Hats join the LineUp as a late
addition, playing Friday evening.

EVENTS---Artists
AKRON/FAMILY
If you arent familiar with
sensational hippy psych stompyfolksy homemade downhomewigout trippers AKRON/FAMILY ortheir masterpiece albums then Thiswould be the time to tune in, dropout etc. Previous album Love isSimple was a full-scale epic, thenewie Set Em Wild, Set Em Freekicks off a whole new riotoustechnicolour episode. (percussivethunder and anthemic electric
guitars touching on everythingfrom Fela Kuti to Sly And TheFamily Stone in under six
psychedelic minutes. Whether its the celebratory sing-along gospel ofGravelly Mountains of the Moon, the lush folk sounds of Sun Will Shine,or MBF, which lies at the intersection of primal punk rock and heavyfree jazz). Golly. You may as well go home after they play, itll belike a whole Meredith in one set. Do they do Tai Chi? Their live showsare a thing of legend, one celebrated occasion saw the band lead theaudience and 20-odd musicians from the stage in an Arkestra-like free-for-all to a riotous, shirtless and sing-a-long parade in the streets. This
is beyond unhinged, its no door at all. Jamb jam. Blow the house down.First time in Australia.

ANIMAL COLLECTIVE
Aunty has neverhad as many passionaterequests for a band as she received for AnimalCollective this year. People were pleading withher to get Animal Collectivewith a religiousfervour, as though it wasnt just a really goodidea, it was something that had to happen,because it would mean time + place = aHappening. Magnificently, it is happening.AnimalCollectives evolution from weird, almost field-recording material to very danceable pop hasbeen fascinating. Their steady ascent to theheady zenith puts them in Rare Air; they are theone-per-generation band that is alreadylegendary AND totally at the height of their
powers. High priests. Not just an island but anarchipelago; Avey Tare, Panda Bear and Geologistbring their freak folk noise pop+ to MeredithSaturday evening.
BAG RAIDERS
Late at nite in theAmphitheatre things tend to tiltslowly to the left, then over-correct and spill fastthe otherway. Somewhere in the tumblethese Sydney boys will touchdown in the Super for the firsttime. Their irresistible trackShooting Stars is blowing up allover the world, theyveremixed to the remax andtheyve thoroughly earned their
rails-run as Summers hottest.Listen like thieves.

CITY OF BALLARAT MUNICIPAL BRASS BAND
The City of Ballarat Municipal Brass Bandfollows the traditional English brass bandformat, which is distinct from other types ofband combinations such as military, concert,or symphonic. To maintain the uniquedistinctive sound that only a brass band canproduce, woodwind, reed and stringedinstruments are not used. Difficult marchessuch as Scindian, The Arabian, The Cossacketc. were some of the marches the bandplayed. During the first half of the 1950s,
the band was considered to be the level of any marching band inAustralia. Huge crowds would assemble at their prestigiousperformances. 2009 might see history repeated.

PATRICK WOLF
Bringing something to Meredith that hasnt beenbrought before, we immediately warmed to
Patrick and the cult that quite rightly is buildingaround him. When news of his possible Meredithperformance leaked/got guessed , we got atorrent of email from his Australian fans hoping itwas true, such is the reverance and passion hisfans have for him. Lazy, futile attempts tocategorize Patrick the artist include terms like
androgynous/wunderkind/feathers/leather/chains/goth but far betterthat you use your own eyes and ears and dive headlong into the Sea ofWolf, if you havent already. Sonically, Patrick is grand and dramatic;lyrically he is intense and honest; conceptually he is very conceptual.Theres no one reference point, he is inimitably Patrick Wolf. Oneglance at his online numbers shows that our alphabetical-lineup-listing
belies the fact he has a srsly vast worldwide following, and no (boy)wonder.
PINK FLAMINGO BAR
The fabulous Pink Flamingo Bar will Glow Pink Allnite and servecocktails within certain hours to certain people over 18 with certainphoto ID and certain manners and clean and tidy presentation. It's
where particular people congregate.We advocate the responsible consumption of alcohol at all times atMeredith. If you are under 18, you won't be able to drink alcohol, orenter any licensed areas. Simple as that.
8/14/2019 Before Too Long Yes, We Are There
7/18
This year The Flamingo has a ban on gratuitous use of the word "man", a distrust of
anyone wearing rayon and bar staff have license to display outward contempt for any
signs of social sycophancy. As usual costumes with elaborate headwear or militaria are
celebrated, as is anyone arriving via motor launch or punt.
The Pink Flamingo is essentially a cocktail bar. It sells two cocktails - the Pink Flamingo
(vodka, pink grapefruit, some other stuff) and the Bloody Meredith (popular on Sunday -
vodka, tomato juice, celery, two eggs, roast chicken, two coffees and some lemon
meringue pie). The Pink Flamingo is for over 18's only.
Regular Meredithians will perhaps not be suprised to learn that The Flamingo has
changed hands yet again. It's a bit of a white elephant really! There's always some new
wood-duck ready to blow their severance pay from Telstra on a 'cool' bar. (no, but I've
had a lot of experience on the other side of them...HAHAHAHAH) Two years ago the
main bar staff formed a co-operative and bought the leasehold, and the freehold. Therewere incredible stories of the whole team banding together and working nights and
weekends to bring The Old Dame back to her former glory, stripping away years of bad
renovations, and restoring superb architectural features like the parquetry dance floor,
wrought iron circular staircase, and the marble portico. This idyllic, socialist working
environment continued for weeks until a few minor squabbles about Brenda Ferguson's
'sore' leg escalated into yelling and slammed doors and dinners going cold and then it all
turned to shit.

Last year the Flamingo was bought by Gisborne-based model train enthusiast Troy
Chaplin. At the eleventh hour a falling-out with the electricians ("yes you can have three
phase up here but there better not be anything that makes a choo choo noise buzzing past
my head saturday night") lead to the poorest decor seen in years up there. Poor Troy! Had
no idea really.
This year six former major-label record executives have grand designs on the bar. Themasterplan is to start at Meredith to 'create a buzz' then hopefully the bar will 'go viral'
then eventually they'll franchise The Pink Flamingo right around the planet with the
eventual goal to set up a boutique casino version in Macau, replete with dancing girls
(un)dressed as Flamingoes and pink champagne fountains and perhaps holograms of The
Rat Pack pretending to chat up the women at the bar. Good luck boys.
The Pink Flamingo's location is at the back of the amphitheatre, just next to the
International Food Court, on the fringe of the Top Paddock. You can see the stage easily
from the front garden of the Pink Flamingo.
Here's the history of The Pink Flamingo:
1998 first opened as The Pink Flamingo Yacht Club Bar, with hosts Commodore
Bahamas Lite and Commodore Pink Jazz.
1999 The Pink Flamingo Ski Lodge, with hosts Heidi and Klaus, included their famous
Alpine Friendliness TM.2000 The Pink Flamingo RSL, with bingo and bowls, and a Meredith Gift Honour Board.
Run by committee.
2001 The Pink Flamingo Speakeasy and Cinema. Some of the films really messed with
some of the patrons minds.
2002 The Pink Flamingo Bar. Shady, quiet and comfortable. And pink.
2003 The Pink Flamingo Bar. Provincial quail nursery and Swedish tennis fan face
painting station.
8/14/2019 Before Too Long Yes, We Are There
9/18
2004 The Pink Flamingo Bar and Health-giving Mud Baths. Got a bit muddy.
2005 The Pink Flamingo Bar and Grill. Sunny skies, flippin' burgers.
2006 Giant illuminated Flamingo erected at entrance. Old Flamingo decor retired.
Flamingo Workers Collective installed as new owners. A Saturday Night fever party for
the Saturday Night and a one-dayer on the telly Friday Night to bring in the punters. The
PubTab re-opened.2007 Workers Collective falls apart when after arguments about Brenda Ferguson's
sore leg. However much restoration was achieved, and the Flamingo was almost listed
asa World Heritage Site.
2008 Gisborne-based model train enthusiast Troy Chaplin completes takeover. Secret
plans to run miniature tracks around the walls cause falling-out with local tradesmen on
the eve of the festival and Troy hasn't been sighted since.
ECOPLEX CINEMA
FREAK FILM COMES TO THE BUSH - OUTLANDS ECOPLEX CINEMA
There is a Giant Outdoor Cinema at Meredith, in a magical grove of manna gums, with
the natural canopy high overhead just sparse enough for the twinkling stars to shine
through. What shows? That would be stuff that turned left at the lights, planted the foot
and ripped the rear view mirror off, and then ate it.
8/14/2019 Before Too Long Yes, We Are There
10/18
It's called the Outlands Ecoplex Cinema, and it sits at the edge of Bush Camping, in the
area known as "Africa". It consists of a large 6m x 6m screen purpose built between two
ancient eucalypts, a six-speaker Super-Sonorama surround audio experience (which when
coupled with Ultravision 3D effects and glasses REALLY puts you in the picture), and
the action (or inaction) is projected by vintage 16mm gear out of a 1978 Jayco
SuperTourer Caravan (with annex). IN OPTICALLY ENHANCED ULTRAVISION!!!Only ULTRAVISION with SUPER-SONORAMA provides you that "you-are-in-the-
middle-of-it-all" effect... Accept no substitutes!
The posse that run the Ecoplex say this: We swim the sewers of cinema now-and-past,
to salvage unfamiliar objects of wonder and delight. Join us at the Ecoplex as we
celebrate both new and misremembered (and damn strange of course) instruments of
celluloid enchantment... PLUS: (YES!) A WHOLE BUNCH ELSE!!!... the usual garbage
sandwich of idiot cinema that only a Mother could love... Destroyed animation, anti-
social children's television, wrong media at its very best & worst.
The Ecoplex runs basically all night, and is designed so you can drop in for a short or
long while at any time many of the films shown are indeed shorts so you don't need toset your watch for the start of a feature.

WHAT TO BRING
Bring These Things
8/14/2019 Before Too Long Yes, We Are There
13/18
* DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO GET THERE.
* YOUR TICKET (wristband). Double-check you have it now. Put it on as you leave to
go to the festival.
* SOMETHING TO SLEEP IN eg a tent. Don't forget the tent pegs. If you drive, you can
park the car next to your tent. Caravans and motorhomes are welcome.* A SLEEPING BAG/doona/extra blankets.
* BRING REALLY WARM CLOTHES. We cant stress this enough - BRING REALLY
WARM CLOTHES AND WATERPROOF CLOTHES EVEN IF ITS HOT AND
SUNNY WHEN YOU LEAVE HOME. It can get very cold at night.
* SUNGLASSES, HAT, SUNSCREENS, LONGSLEEVE SHIRT etc.
* PHOTO ID - If you are over 18 and wish to gain access, BRING PHOTO ID. EVEN IF
YOU ARE 55 YOU WILL STILL NEED PHOTO ID.
* A GOOD STASH OF CASH. There is a cash-out facility on site, at The Gift Shoppe,
which is open until 10pm each night. But best to bring with you.
* MOBILE PHONE AND SPARE CHARGED BATTERY if you have one. There are nolandline public phones on site. There are more public phones in the town of Meredith, 10
minutes drive from the site, but if you have a mobile, bring it. Coverage on the farm is
improving all the time; you may have to go to the highest part of the site to get a signal.
* ANY MEDICATION YOU NEED - there is no pharmacy on site.
* DRINKING WATER FOR THE CAMPSITE - there is free drinking water available
onsite but we highly recomend getting a bulk water container from the supermarket - a
10litre would be ideal. Apart from just drinking it, it will be very handy for washing,
8/14/2019 Before Too Long Yes, We Are There
14/18
cleaning, brushing your teeth and keeping your tongue wet for licking stamps if you
decide to do all your wedding invitations whilst at the festival. There are of course plenty
of hot and cold showers and sinks and water outlets available on site, but nothing beats
the convenience of having water on tap at your camp.
* A VEHICLE OR ORGANISE YOURSELF A LIFT HOME. Taxis are at an absolute
premium out there; a small number are available but book well in advance (like weeks)and make clear plans with the driver.
* TENT MARKER - they really do all look the same. A flag for the car aerialetc
* TORCH AND CAMPLIGHT - those strap-on small headlamps are great for nights, and
a battery powered camp lantern or three for the tent and campsite with plenty of batteries
is a good idea. Some come with remote controls which are terrific for when you are
trying to find your tent in the dark. Some people bring small bike-style flashing battery-
powered LED lights on poles or car roofs to help find the tent at night.
* Good sensible SHOES for your feet.
* If the weather looks like being wet bring gumboots.

ABOUT US
FESTIVAL WELCOME
Not gonna be writing a Review of last years as that would be a little skewed, history
written by the winners etc etc. Plus theres enough of them out there and its not required.
So havent done it. But suffice to say it went Outrageously Well. (how about the noqueue to get in, huh? huh? not bad eh. Good work by our Receptionists.) Thanks for all
the positive and constructive feedback. It is What It is because of That.
Looking aheadboythis year will be the 20th Anniversary Meredith. Gots lots of ideas
for doing something appropriately celebratory but more contemplation required. Have
thought about having some Function in town but really the festival itself should be the
8/14/2019 Before Too Long Yes, We Are There
16/18
focus of anything Special. And Special it shall be. Happy to hear any ideas of any
kind for the 20th thoughif you got any (even half-ideas) lets hear them.
You can tell us what you thought of Meredith Number Nineteen here. Some photos here
and some others here.
cheers
