i alluded in a previous post that I have been confused for another nationality whilst away. I have mainly been though of as a irish man. It may have something to do with my hair colour and the chops. SO many times they have thought I am irish. After looking at a certain cereal package here (lucky charms) i can see why they think I am off the packet.
I now understand that they think we and New Zealand are the same country and are joined like them and Canada. Too make matters worse a Kiwi band played main stage and they kept saying we were the same country and we sound the same. No way we sound way way different.
But one of my fav things at the festival was to sit on the hill and watch the bands. It had a nice breeze and was close to the ice cream vendor. After bands would play during turn arounds I would talk to those around me. it was interesting and fun. I was tlaking to a dude beside me thinking with his hair colour and tan he was from California. He was Austrian how bizarre to be sitting next to a Austrian in a crowd of 30 thousand. So there we were the Australian and the Austrian making fun of the Americans and there excesses. What a bizzarre planet we live on it can seem so big and yet so very small.
Till Next Time Free the Lederhosen!!,
