I'm an American, I have very little intuitive knowledge of Australia. But, my suspicion is that a substantial portion attending this B&S are literally the same suburbanite and urbanite ravers or bluegrass (insert comparable festival genre) attendees dressing up and driving 100 km to make the specific, subtlety pretentious tongue out photo pose that no one made 70 years ago.

People doing redneck vehicle shenanigans, wet T-shirt contests (when they don't have kids!), etc seems fun, despite my apprehensions of extroverted, ritualistic npc noise. I'm bashing the mass, generic festival aspect of what I see. In my imagination, a proper rural party is a private gathering of 100 adults engaging in no phones allowed revelry.

Edit: Woo girls. A bunch of woo girls and guys.
