SOUNDWAVE 2012

Yesterday I worked at Soundwave festival in Melbourne and I got to have a reunion with my 16 year old self when I finally got to see Limp Bizkit and Slipknot live - who were my favourite bands in high school. Yep; these crazy fucks were my idols ------>

I know most people will not understand why I was so excited to see these guys - but the whole time I was watching them I had a smile on my face - I think it was the 16 year old Karlie giving me a thank you hug. 

The other moment that I'll never forget was when Limp Bizkit addressed the crowd to remember the teenage girl that died of a heart attack whilst watching them at Big Day Out 2001. A young, innocent Limp Bizkit fan was in the crowd watching her favourite band, when she was crushed against thousands of people, unable to breath and unable to move. Lead singer Fred Durst says about that day:

I have to say this was the most memorable and touching part of LB's set. I was at the Melbourne big day out in 2001 when I heard the news that LB were refusing to play anymore shows as Durst was too emotionally scarred to go on. It was a really sad time in history. 

R.I.P. Jessica and well done to LB for coming back to finish what they started and dedicated their shows to Jess - who no doubt was watching from side of stage yesterday. 

Jessica took this photo on the day she passed away, in the crowd.
