The pro-environment group Australian Solar Energy, has proposed that Melbourne’s Yarra Trams should rely on solar energy rather than brown coal. However, the proposal is waiting on approval from the Victroain government.
What would solar powered public transport mean for Melbourne?
1700‘s ‘Tunesday’ team a.k.a Justin Sumner and myself, were lucky enough to travel to Bendigo to broadcast and represent 1700 at Grooving The Moo Festival.
It didn’t take long for Justin, Rhiannon (our EP) and myself to get amongst all the fun and excitement of the festival.
Kicking off the day, we got to head backstage of the festival and experience all the fun from behind the scenes.
We were in the presence of some amazing musicians; including Dylan Frost from Sticky Fingers, Harts, The Delta Riggs, and the up and coming rapper Tkay Maidza who everyone at GTM was hanging to see.
We hung out with the boys from Fountaineer who were Triple J’s chosen winners to play the GTM’s local headline spot, and also had a chat with the quirky and humorous hardcore dancer Dancing Accountant (who despite being injured was still in high spirits).
Here is one snippet of what went down when 1700 travelled to Grooving The Moo.
