After a couple of weeks of throwing around ideas for names, we decided to thrash it out over a jug of beer at the Exeter.

The list of names we came up with included: fresh walls and big balls, two cans, buff marks, drip, paint&paste, urban repo, buff street, ministry of urban beautification, bombfest & street dreams.

Two jugs later, things were getting messy and we’d rapidly regressed to names like: viking pastry, sticky mess, fresh air smells funny & fuck street. It was clear that things weren’t moving in entirely the right direction, so we called it a night.

The next day while we all struggled at work and uni, the only name we could all agree on was Street Dreams.

So, from this day forth (well until tomorrow at least) the official name of the festival for 2010 is:

Street Dreams
Adelaide Urban Art Festival

Hope it doesn’t suck.
