Anyone going to woodford this year???
I have been invited to perform there, but as our airfares aren't being paid for, most people I know can't spin with me... is anyone going up there this year that would be interested in throwing together a fifteen min fire show with me? This would give you free entry to the festival. biggrin
if your interested i need to know ASAP as I have to get back to the festival with a list of names!!

Dentrassi- China rocked!! BIGLY!!

I might be in sydney weekend of the 17th... not entirely sure yet, but I should be doing a fire show up there, will let you know and will text you when its all confirmed smile



and yeps, I hope to meet up with josh and katinka, might be good for them to meet some of the other troupe members here in canberra too... One other of my troupe from here will be attending woodford, but she is our troupes "apprentice poi" so any of you guys that want to help with her learning I am sure she will greatly appreciate it... none of us actually do poi, its all staff and juggling so we aren't the best teachers!

anyways.. CANT WAIT TO MEET YOU ALL!!!!!!



-josh, katinca, call me when you know when you will be in town, pm me if you don't have my number.

in short, don't be petrified, don't stress, we are all going to have a ball! Have fun with it all biggrin we will make do with what ever we have
If any of you have any niggly questions about it all or if you are feeling bothered by something, just pm me and I will try to give you any info I can, Weeeee! Woodford!
Hugs to you all! hug

By the way..
Dentrassi - I won't be in Sydney on the 17th, the gig has been moved to next year, but if you guys or anyone else have the energy, My troupe is having a circus toys and pancake night here in Canberra that weekend.. basicly we all get together and play with circus toys through the afternoon, have a huge pancake dinner and then pull out the fire toys for a big fire jam. If you guys have any way of coming down, it would be cool to work out some stuff and for you to meet the usual members biggrin
PM me if you have any way you can make it and i will give you the details... pass that on to Rozi too hehe

Also, I am meeting Josh and Katinca this arvo, so we should somehow be able to organise this long-distance troupe show!!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

we have our times now : )

Venue: The Ring

Monday 27th: 11:30pm
Friday 31st: 8pm
Saturday 1st: 9pm

They also want us to be involved in a fire jam/show on a couple of the other nights to entertain people moving from one venue to the other, they have said that we might want to work with some of the other fire troupes when doing this... it sounds more like an organized jam to me... hehe fun fun biggrin
Also, any Will-o'-the-Wisp people, we have a meeting with the organisers on the night of the 26th... anyone who can come that would be great.

Position Vacant wink

Wanted... an experienced photo/video person to follow a couple of pixies around for half-1hr a day at Woodford Folk Fest...
Would suit someone who isn't necessarily busy performing themselves but who is already planning on going to the fest as we are happy to pay you but don't have any tickets to spare.....
We are trying out a couple of new performance ideas at the fest and would love to get some of this on video + photos.

Just pm me if you are interested and we can chat some more about it...

love & sparkles to you all.. .:*:.

quick question while on the subject of photos/video... is anyone taking down a tripod that I could borrow for the duration of each of our shows? I have a mini DV cam that i'd like to set up to film, but i'd rather not lug my tripod all the way to QLD on a flight... I already have WAY to much stuff to bring!!

also, Dentrassi - can you pm me an address that I can post our CD to, then you, Josh and Kate can here the tracks that we will be using. arsn and valura- I will send one to you guys too.

one more thing... who here has a Telstra phone... they are the only ones that work at woodford. I don't but I believe Josh and Kate do, what about you arsn, Valura, Kyle, Ed? this might make it slightly easier to find eachother to camp!

I to am taking my DV cam, mainly so I can learn to then put on the computer and send Blue and Te Pooka a copy... so they don't feel left out... I'm going to see with my brother if I could also steal his tripod.

As for Telstra phones, no not yet, maybe even just a pre-paid sim.

13 days... biggrin

just re. phones at woodford.. I'm on telstra and didn't have too much luck with it last year.. I had occasional reception at best.. just don't count on them that's all. (although if you stand on a hill, on one leg with the wind blowing in just the right direction... umm)
Optus apparently can work sometimes too.. but again I don't know if they really will all the time...

MMMMM so much goodness... biggrin
If anyone is going to the site on the 26th from Brsbane I am still trying to figure out how to get there.
As for the bunch of hippies & misfits who will be tacking a show together from the five corners of OZ, maybe we could use some sort of marker for the wisp camp? Or forget phones and use telepathy? I am sure we will work out somthing. Eveishish do u know what time that meeting is on on the the 26th?
Arsn & Val,
Hope to catch up with you guys real soon. Can you pm your number?
Ahhhhh almost back to summer ubblove

Contact without dance is like sex without wiggling.
A) it does feel as good
B) it does not look as good on film

We will probably be arriving on the 27th. Although I am sending up a special person a day earlier to meet you all. Make sure you guys grab a big enough camping spot for us all!!! biggrin

It was a day for screaming at inanimate objects.

What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...
