A lively gathering of people near a pond at the Nostalgia Festival, with musicians performing on a wooden platform surrounded by lush greenery and hills in the background.

The annual Nostalgia Festival at Ferrymead Heritage Park is a music and food festival that’s for everyone young and old (lots of little kids having a ball too). It was my first time attending and it was a great day out (the weather even cleared to beautiful sunny until a small shower later in the day).

The Chills on stage
Lots of cool craft and clothing stalls as well (and a wizard)

    The Chills — They’ve been a top rate band for years! Did they happen to perform one of their latest singles – ‘When the Poor can Reach the Moon’? Love that song 🙂

        Love that one too from back in the good old days — love about everything The Chills released 🙂 As for the one I had mentioned, you might remember it if you heard it.

      He is “The Grey Wanderer” after all, and definitely cannot resist a good gathering of music and good company.
