triple j’s live coverage of Splendour in the Mud 2022 concludes

triple j’s live coverage of Spendor in the Grass 2022 has concluded as the festival wraps up what turned out to be a festival of rain and mud, forcing the last-minute cancellation of day one performances. 

Despite the harsh conditions, punters still slogged it out in their gum boots and triple j continued live broadcasting of performances from day two.
