<P><BR>Hi,</P>
<P>Have fowarded this message. Anybody have an idea with what to do with these guys below? This is the 2012 Show and they are having their tour intertwined with Circa (though their performances have nothing to do with each other) and it all sounds well and good- but I wish the CIRCA people had mentioned them earlier, I doubt if we'd have the resources to facillitate them at this late stage... but if anyone knows a venue which they can host their party on the 11th as they wish, close to the festival itself, then let them know.</P>
<P>Wow. It's nice to see more last-minute people on the road !</P>

show to work we <BR>>most definitely need a good sound system and no restrictions on <BR>>noise.....other than that (which is quite a thing these days) we can <BR>>play anywhere....outside would be great. we are however running the <BR>>show like how an old fashioned sound system crew would run, ie, we <BR>>set up, start, and don't stop till we have to. there are huge <BR>>differences in sonic output as a lot of our stuff is live music <BR>>mixed with electronic soundscapes and field recordings, spoken words <BR>>a many, with input from local performers who turn up and tune in to <BR>>how things are running....it's hard to describe without sounding <BR>>over complicated so in a nutshell<BR>><BR>>we are a non stop live radio drama party where the outcome of the <BR>>play is determined by who turns up<BR>><BR>>i think it
would be great if you can sort us a space on the park, <BR>>with appropriate sized sound system where we won't upset anyone with <BR>>noise spill.<BR>><BR>>lemme know if you think we can be incorporated into your event and <BR>>we can put the word out if you struggle to find any stuff we need<BR>><BR>>cheers<BR>><BR>>alisdair<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>>On 28 May 2005, at 22:35, Benjamin Major wrote:<BR>><BR>>> <BR>>>Hi,<BR>>> <BR>>>Have heard that your show is coming to Sheffield on June 11th- <BR>>>sounds great ! I have already been in contact with CIRCA and Lab of <BR>>>II, and I'm not quite sure if you are connected with these in some <BR>>>way, hopefully you'll be able to inform me on this.<BR>>> <BR>>>Anyway, to business; I am involved in organising a festival
in <BR>>>Sheffield on June 11th entitled 'Peace in the Park', a festival <BR>>>which will include a live band stage, open mic tent, an info or <BR>>>democracy cafe of some kind, healing area, kids area... and, at the <BR>>>end of the day, CIRCA. For more details about the festival see <BR>>>www.peaceinthepark@freeuk.com<BR>>> <BR>>>I'm not sure what kind of space you need to peform the 2012 show, <BR>>>or indeed if it needs to be an indoor space, but it might be a nice <BR>>>idea to find a place which is nearby the festival so that we can <BR>>>really bring that weekend's many exciting activities together (As <BR>>>you probably know, it will be the weekend before the G8 meeting so <BR>>>things are really starting to happen in Sheffield).<BR>>> <BR>>>Anyway, I though I should let you know
that we were about on that <BR>>>day, incase you didn't know already. And you are obviously very <BR>>>welcome to come and join in the festivities when your performance <BR>>>is over. Or if you need publicity doing we could give you a hand on <BR>>>that score too...<BR>>> <BR>>>Ok, Well I'll leave it at that for now.<BR>>> <BR>>>Cheers,<BR>>> <BR>>>Benjamin.<BR>><BR></DIV></div></html>
