Saturday 11 June - the 2012 show - the end of the world... and the 
beginning - Musicians, artists and others from Resonance FM and 
elsewhere are creating 'the biggest band in the world' from now until 
the next time the G8 land in the UK. Creating a space to expand 
peoples' minds...to see and hear things differently. They are looking 
for freaky rebels and revolutionaries to take the floor with them, to 
perform in one way or another. Places where the periphery is 
centralised and where the outliers can find others, connect with 
groups, and find inspiration...and join this summer's mobilisation. For 
details see www.2012show.org
