4th Clonakilty Juggling Convention

So here's an update to the performers and workshop givers list:
Sebastian and Danni, great club jugglers from Berlin, that anyone who's spent some time in Katakombenland will know.
Just recieved word that Priam Perret will be joining us too an amazing French Diaboloist....

mmmmm looking fancy






ps Clare, it looks like the earliest sunday bus won't get you to Dublin for 1, but an early hitching session might do it... anyway get yer arse down here!:)

so eh...do u think the fire will happen this year?or do u think we'l jst session into the night like last time hehe

not that i have a problem with option number 2

So looks like Ed's not going to make it this year...sniff sniff, afraid he had to cancel.

The fire show has still not been confirmed, I'm trying to get the go ahead from the town council so I hope it works. *fingers crossed*

Ticket availability is going to be very available... and at the moment it looks like things will finish up sunday, but there may be a good few stragglers to visit the pub with...

We are currently looking for a few volunteers that could help us out over the weekend. We need:
- sound and light technician for the shows
- a show corodinator and stage manager
- a driver to go on random missions from time to time
- artists to decorate the place

Let me know if you can give us a hand with any of this

ps rumours of a french fire spinny invasion....

Some fantastic news!

Eimhin has managed to convince Aragorn Boulonger aka Bishop , to join us! One of my favourite dancers on the planet, anyone who doesn't know him check this guy out!!!

He's talking about running some epic workshops and to perform..... loooooovely stuff

Tell eimhin to convince the guy to come to Bristol too! I want to meet him! Huge influence of mine.

Anyone interested in Parkour? Been talking to a friend of mine and looks like himself and a few friends are up for coming down and teaching some workshops if anyones up for it....

....one step close to expanding the convention into a body arts, movement and manipulation festival....

Damn dude.

It better be this good next year... Don't peak early on me now...

Week and a half to go, time to run to Hungary and then last minute organisation mode....does anyone know of a good hall by the way?

Just heard Cyrille's gonna make it over... (on the off chance you don't know him - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WpysRu5PvyM)

still time for last minute flight booking ed

Hello. Considering coming over if I can. Can anyone tell me about camping / hostels / cost. Couldn't find hostels or anything when I did searches.

Last minute change. The 4th Clonakilty Juggling Convention is being moved to Thailand due to Ronans last minute ticket to Thailand. See you all here

Please email all your details to Ronan, including passport numbers so he can buy flight tickets to you all, he´s a real sugardaddy

//Thomas

damn: too much work to do and definitely not enough money this will have to be added to my list of things to do next year

You bought me a plane ticket Thomas? Sound! by the way did you har about this convention that happening in klarnaquilty or something, I hear all the cool kids are heading there

Hey surinki, if you still heading this direction the local campsite is offering a reduced rate for jugglers (€6 a night). Hope to see you here

So people have begun to arrive and i have to say this is gonna be quality
Sun is shining, go on the late summer. Perfect timing.

spewin im missing out on this.. if only i wasnt flying out on sunday..

oh well, i had a good run.. hope you all have a great time guys

WOW!
That was quality

What a ridiculous amount of quality performers and artists for such a small convention! I'm still trying to recover from the Aragorn (Bishop) experience....absolutely amazing....I almost want to give up objects and work only on my body.

Big thanks to Clare and Will for all your help during weekend and to Aengus and Helene for last minute renegade comparing and sound!
And to everyone else who gave a hand during the weekend.

:hugs: to ye all

Great work Ronan
