Aussie hip hop artist Illy's set at Falls Festival in Marion Bay will go ahead tonight following fears it would be called off due to an airline blunder.
Taking to Twitter earlier today, the rapper claimed that he would be unable to perform as his gear was left off the flight to Marion Bay.
"Hey @VirginAustralia cheers for taking our gear OFF THE FLIGHT," he tweeted.
"Now we can't play our set in a couple hours. Fucking nice one."
However, Illy confirmed just minutes ago that the show has been saved, thanks to some swift work by Canberra duo Vallis Alps and Falls organisers.
So no sweat, Marion Bay. You're safe!
Check out the play-by-play below.

My only focus ever is making sure when I get on stage we put on the best show possible. My number one rule.
