Beach Fest: The Short Review.
The event started at 2pm although the crowd flooded the Mayang Sari Resort since 1pm. Dungeon Community banner was hooked up in the cozy hall (which by the way I thought dungeon pronounced as "dungeon", but actually its a "stylo" spelling for Dungun!) and all colorful people was entertained by 66sick Chicks as their first meal for the day. The crowd started to dance as soon as they heard the music and the place was packed with people in no time. Most of the band played 4-5 songs max, even though the crowd wanted more from each bands.

A few booth was opened in the hall such as Wearnvy, Oh Chentaku, two DIY stuffs booth, beverages booth and a bundle clothes booth. Oh Chentaku's merchandise was the hot item on the event.

A couple of hours later, the Authority came by to check out the event and by check out, I meant they are really checking out to clean that place up. The Authority stayed around while the bands playing inside the hall. Most of the crowd didnt care about the authority and kept dancing to the tunes. The event paused at 4.30pm for Asar prayer and started back at 5pm. 2nd act after the break was Oh Chentaku. The crowd sang along most of their songs and enjoyed the band even the Authority asked to lower down the volume and threaten the organizer that they will clean up the place if the organizer didnt do so.

By 6pm, the crowd started to go home as a few of them are scared of the Authority, which by the way was still around, hanging out at the lobby. We (me, the GegeyMusic Boss, and the Toyota man) didnt hang out long too, since one of us had to work later that night. But from what we've heard, the event was a success even though there was a lot of threats came out from the resort manager and the Authority. Half of the crowd took off earlier that evening but that doesnt make the event a failure at all. A few bands didnt play on the event such as Cannaris and Dailyshow; and their spots was replaced by Daisy Honey and a few other band.
And yes, the Authority was there till the end of the event. How sweet!
p/s; nobody was caught and nothing bad happened between the event and the Authority. Now that's the spirit!
