When life gives you lemons, you either make lemonade or suck those tangy, sour little bastards raw. And it looks like Splendour In The Grass went down the first route by making a funny about the spectacularly soggy conditions at the festival.
Before you ask, no! The gag had nothing to do with being a little piggy rolling around in mud or Shrek warning people to stay away from his swamp.
Shrek at Splendour like ‘get out of my swamp’ hehe
While waiting for ‘s set at the Amphitheatre, punters saw some shit hot new branding: “Splendour In The Mud”.
Splendour. In. The. Mud.
Yes, just days after due to a freakishly bad weather, Splendour decided to rebrand themselves to Splendour In The Mud.
Look, it’s arguably a funny bit and we can’t help but stan a self-aware Splendour In The Grass who had the chutzpah to take the piss out of itself. After all, the festival organisers had nothing to do with Byron Bay’s wet ‘n wild weather and have been doing .
In saying that, you also can’t blame festival goers for not finding the humour in the situation. From punters waiting in line for over four and a half hours to catch a bus out of the festival to it looked like people were hauling ass through ankle-deep chocolate custard, it definitely hasn’t been an enjoyable ride for all.
At least the Liam Gallagher set was a hoot and a half, with the bloke balancing a tambourine on his head.
If the mud joke didn’t land, we can all agree that Liam with a tambourine on his head is funny, right?
