Issue 3 – Tuesday 1 August
Evan’s Evenings
Evan
Hello all, I hope you're well (imagine furrowed brow). Why the sterngreeting, I'm sure you'll ask? To start today, I have to make a serious point.
The party in the Cornwallis building on Sunday night started well, but went severely awry towards the end.
There was a lot of loutish behaviour, such as crushing and stage diving.
Now I'm not the fun police right, but on a camp full of such incredibly smashing people as yourselves, we just don't expect it. There's a serious issue here, as if things don't calm down, then all the excellent performers we have already booked to play at this festival, will not be able to!
Now that ain't cool, so please calm down everybody, and then the candyfloss will be on me.
Right, back to business. Tonight we have thepolitical folk vocal stylings of David Rovics in Fairy Trade, at 8:30, followed by an acoustic performance from the Big Hand (who shall have,by the time you read this, have rocked the house, albeit in a safe manner).
The PARTY centre shall be running a discussion themed around the film Good Night and Good Luck, a monochrome exploration of the media during the time of the Macarthy withchunts.
Also, urgent, urgent, alert! Sorry to alarm you, but Blue Whale town are having a Ceildh, organised by two members of the nationally renowned Green Shoots Ceildh Band, who need any callers and musicians to boost the effectiveness of their dozey doe. Elsewhere, Indigo Snake shall be having a puppet show, performed by our Brazilian delegation, starting at 8:30.
Eric Maddern, storyteller extraordinare shall be entertaining the youth (and perhaps the adults) of Green Turtle Marquee, also Tillyards shall have a little post 11 o'clock action in the form of up and coming band Waiting for Volkaertz.
Last and by no means least, freakin' Seize the Day are playing! Ethical audience participation and fun for all ages, what incredible fun! Be there, or sit at home and eat crisps!
Please forgive any gratuitous use of exclamation marks. I am very tired!!!!
