V-Festival

My gift to Rob for his birthday this year was tickets to V-Festival. V-Fest is the Virgin Music Festival that is held each year at Centennial Olympic Park in Sydney (and also held in other locations throughout Australia). It's an all-day music event and this year it ran from 1pm to 10pm on March 28th with performances on each of the four stages by bands such as Snow Patrol, Kaiser Chiefs, The Kills, Duffy, and the headliner: The Killers. The park itself is 543 acres so the event was pretty spread out with plenty of food stalls and bars set up all around. It ended up being a GORGEOUS sunny day! Here are some of the pictures:

Snow Patrol! Their performance overlapped with The Killers so we only got to stick around for a couple of songs before dashing across the park to try to get a good spot for The Killers
