The 2012 edition of the Meredith Music Festival is getting closer and that means it’s time to start planning your weekend. That’s made a little easier with the release of the 2012 timetable!
Your plan should involve getting to the stage early on Friday and staying there until Sunday. If you don’t see at least Primal Scream or Spiritualized, you are a fool. There, I said it. Also, Rahzel on a Saturday afternoon? I could think of worse ways to while away the time.
Schedule, commence!
