I would like to invite you all to a gathering in cork on the 20th to the 22nd of may. It will be in county cork in the open air and peace and quiet, so bring your tents
(final location to be announced but if you can get yourself to cork city we'll manage from there).
There will be music dancing singing juggling spinning and of course, lots and lots of fire.
I'm also in the process of getting together some workshops. Would you like to add something? Let me know if you have any workshop ideas or if there is anything in particular you would like to see over the weekend.
Also, please feel free to bring along all the musicians you can find and in fact anyone at all that you think might enjoy a weekend camping in the country
Tentative list
Faberge
Firepoise
Fear-Tine
Ronopotomas
Flip
Colm
Severine
Florina
Jo
Pat
Amelie
Bret
Jaqui
Tainted
Diana
Ariel
Jake
Johnny
All going well we are going to have some big fancy cameras there and on top of that we'll even have people who know how to use em and whats more, edit them.
See you there

Hmmm...
12 bucks you say...would also have to work out somewhere to camp in Cork for Sunday night, as i'm meant to be going to Kerry on Monday, and damned if i'm going back to Dublin in between, because i really don't like buses THAT much...but i'm sure i can arrange something

Well the cottage is ready for the weekend, going to be a lovely little place to chill out in. was getting a bit worried about the weather so I've decided to build a circus tent* to spin in! It'd be terrible if we all got sunburnt lying on the grass, so a nice bit of shade will be in order
The elephants should be arriving on saturday morning so don't forget to bring some peanuts
Is there someone organising some kerosene?
Looking forward to weekendland!

* I accept no liability if my circus tent turns out to be a bit of a shantytownshack...but it should be dry!

Oh my god... that's so marvellous Ronan... thanks for going to all the effort.
Looking forward to seeing you and plaguing you with 'ohhhh, how'd you do that?!'
I shall bring a couple of containers of fuel and some cadburys fingers... just for old times sake

Cheers Ronan,
sorry we missed the eggs but we do like being the extravagantly late ones so it's our own fault!
Hope you got your bus in Cork ok, we drove around in circles for ages trying to find a parking spot for the english market and evenually gave up, we stopped off in Cashel for lunch though so we didn't starve worry not.
Lisa thanks for letting us chill at yours before the rest of the drive, we all made it in one piece, and we kept ourselves amused by paying for each other at the toll bridges, Firepoise you learn quickly!
It was great meeting you all, and next time I drag Colleen teh entire lenght of Ireland we'll try to stay longer / get there on time!
Declan ta for the tips, I've been practising already, I may have to make a visit to Dublin to torture you for more of the same!
Much love
d
