You Are Here festival - part 4

Posted by Stephen (Canberra, Australia) on 20 June 2012 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

The crunchy guitars of indie punk trio, Super Best Friends.

As we saw here, a basketball hit out settled top billing at the gig. These boys score a few extra points for wearing their Canberra Cannons team shirts. The Cannons – now sadly defunct – won a couple of national basketball titles in the 80s.

This first floor plaza with its concrete blocks and terraced garden was the venue for the You Are Here festival.

Lots of energy infuses your frame, from the lads and their crunchy sound making to the cool lines of stage and building perspective. A great stage snap, which is par for the Stephen course of course!

London Caller from United Kingdom

Ha... Is basketball popular in Australia?
In my old school days in Malaysia, boys played football or hockey.
Girls played netball.

20 Jun 2012 8:42pm

@London Caller: Basketball has to compete against many other sports and does not get a lot of TV coverage. However, the Aussie men's team is rated no. 9 in the world; and the women's world ranking is second only to the USA. We will see how they go at the Olympics!
