Located: Middle chair, under tent canopy, cold beer in hand. Wearing: a pair of shorts and a five-o-clock shadow, even though it’s only 3.30pm. Sayings: “Come park off, chana” and “while you’re up, while you’re up…”

Located: At the Chakra-balancing psy-chillout hydro-bong tent. Wearing: a sarong, ribbons and a pair of genuine Guccis. Sayings: “You see, we’re not all equal. Some of us are more awake and aware than others. Do you see? Are you with me?”
