Splendour In The Grass Shot By Luke Byrne

Splendour in three words... "Mud, Yogi, Yeahhhh Dogs."

Luke Byrne, who recently had an exhibition in Sydney, went to Splendour In The Grass last weekend with a couple of rolls of film and, at least we hope, a pair of gumboots. He took these photos and answered a few questions for us. Thanks, Luke!

Oyster: Ultimate road trip song...
Luke: Bruce Springsteen's 'State Trooper' and Lee Hazlewood's 'Run Boy Run'.

Splendour in three words...
Mud, Yogi, Yeahhhh Dogs.

Highlight...
Appearance of 'Necklace'.

Lowlight...
Missing my ride and walking back into town.

Best band...
Wolf & Cub.

Best meal...
Fish taco with coconut sauce from Byron Bay Chilli Co.
