A tribute to Nambassa - rock festivals 1969-1981
It might not seem worth it to devote an entire thread to the Nambassa Music Festival, held in NZ from 1976-1981. However, a little digging has revealed some intriguing info and pics. What I learned is that in 1979, it is estimated that 75,000 attended, and that 35% were partially or totally naked. Does that include shirtless males? Look at the pics below and be the judge. If not, I doubt that any other major music festival in history could boast that much nudity. What all this means is that ordinary pics taken at Nambassa have a high potential to include some female skin. These pics are out there on the net, and below are a few i unearthed today. All are low quality unfortunately which is to be expected, but they are still noteworthy. So I will open this thread up to any and all pics from Nambassa that anyone can dig up and that show, however faintly, some female nudity. And it is my hope that at some point, someone will unearth a cache of higher Q pics that will make all of this effort truly worthwhile. If you weren't able to attend this feast of flesh, you can at least have this thread, my tribute to Nambassa. Woodstock may be the granddaddy of rock music festivals, but Nambassa would appear to be the crowd fav at OCC.
Also, recollections from anyone from this festival would be nice to have. There was a lot of skinny dipping as you can see, and communal showers too. What else...?
cheers,
Klondike
