Description: SKP: Only a few hundred there that night, maybe 300-400 at most. When we were doing the 1st eckythump it was going to be in the ’hocus pocus’ warehouse on the other side of the (now) anzac bridge in a massive industrial warehouse, we had it sorted we thought, but when we rocked up on the Saturday to set up a boss guy came and kicked us out before we had even started setting up, so I led Rodd and the team Chester & JimJams over to the ’ov thee earth tribe’ venue (the Glebe Island silos) and we had a look in there and found 3 phase power that was working and no one around, so we just set up and ran with it. It was a great night and the rest is history, no shut down, all good.
