We Love Sundays

...especially when we are graced with special guests such as Aeroplane, who played with us for the fourth time this summer.
After ten years, this night just seems to be getting bigger and better.
Long live Sneaky Sundays.

Too Many DJs

Follow me this way, if you please...

This is a tale of a DJ dance party for DJ's (and some of their fans).

Twas a stinking hot night in Byron Bay, and the Great Northern Hotel held masses of perspiring kids who came to the YOLO party for one thing only. To dance.

There were a few people in the room who were dancing more than those sweaty kids though, and these were the sweaty DJs, having a dance party of their own up on the stage.

The dancing DJs included:
Aeroplane
Riton
Black Angus
Beni
Dangerous Dan
Gus Da Hoodrat
Nicky Nighttime
Fake Blood
2ManyDJs

And also a dancing singer:
Sam Sparro

There was also a conversation between Black Angus and Fake Blood, DJ extraordinare from the UK (real name: Theo), that went like this.
Angus- "Dude, your Hot Chip remix of Touch Too Much was the greatest remix of last year. Bravo!"
Theo- "What are you talking about? Really? I've never even played it".
Angus- "Wow. Follow me."

Touch Too Much is presently played to the crowd, whose reaction (not abnormal for this particular track) triggers an overly respondent Theo into dancing wildly behind Angus- now truly converted to his own tune.

Here's what the lens belonging to Morgan Hyslop saw on the night that Sneaky Sundays turned 10.

Hedonism at its best

More photos of New Years Day 2010

Somebody said to me on New Years Day... "What a shame that our favourite day of the year happens to be on the first day of the year".

Yes, it might seem most unfortunate that our favourite party on earth happens to occur on January 1st. Ordinarily, the Icebergs party on New Years Day provokes the feeling that it is going to be all downhill from here. But thank God 2010 is YOLO year, which means there will be many more days like this ahead. They might not take place behind glass walls overlooking Bondi Beach featuring Aeroplane, Beni, Black & Dangerous, and Miss Connie Mitchell- but it's safe to say they will be something of a similar description.

YOLO!

You Only Live Once presents A Party

This little chalkboard says it all. It's the chalkboard outside of the Great Northern Hotel in Byron Bay, because that is where the party is. It says "Tonight" because that's when it's on- TONIGHT Wednesday 6th Jan. And it says Sam Sparro, Riton, Black Angus, Dangerous Dan, Doom, Hoodrat, and Nicky Nighttime on it because these are the dudes who will be gracing the decks (and microphone).

The only thing that it does not say, because the man holding the chalk is either not a fan or has a bad memory, is that DJ Beni is also on the line-up.

Word! 2010 is YOLO Year!

Welcome to the 2nd hour and twentieth minute of 2010, the year that You Only Live Once will be bringing you the greatest things that only living once has to offer.
Happy 2010 YOLO, we are excited- not only because you provide us with a slogan that can justify all things ridiculous, irresponsible and extravagant, but because this year will be spawning the best parties, for the best people, in all of the best places. YO fucking LO.
Oh, and we're also excited because today is New Years Day, our favourite day of the year. You'll soon see why.
