Um, I may not be able to make this after all...
I'm getting paid work in Europe over the summer, performing in Germany, austria and Italy with Jea9... and we have a deal teaching kids in germany from august 6th to 13th...
If my not speaking German is a problem, then I'll come back for Bloom, otherwise, I really should stay where the money lies...
Sorry dude. I'll have a scout around and see if I can find a contact juggler who'll perform with you in my stead, if you like? (I highly recommend a coleman
)

Put Water into a cup, it becomes the cup, put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, put water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot.
Water can flow, or it can Crash.

go on kels, you know it'll be fun with us on the case!
now i just gotta work out what i've got to take that isn't covered in a week's worth of dust, sweat and blood and i'll be heading off. if anyone else wants to come along last minute (preferably to offer some freestyle/walkabout performance) pm me quickly or give me a ring on 07867 630898 as we may have a couple of spare spaces....

hopefully about 6ish. we'll see what we can do about the sculpture when we get there.. wicked!
oh yeah... have you charged your techs this time?
this should be pretty funny... half the group and it's guests seem to be suffering from semi-severe injuries so we're gonna have to cobble it together a bit on the fly....
:rolleyes:
i'm so stoked after watching all the fire shows at boom though so i can't wait to do ours again!

mmm... lovely little festie... only about 1000 people as well!
burnt toast (feat chimera) as usual on top form and the fire show was pretty funny too ...except for oli's hand... hopefully next time people might spend more time sorting out more fire blankets than G just before a show! 
highlights were probably finding the lost disco, watching the bays and that beatboxer after, helping the wonky woods live up to their name, the workshops on sunday and some fire perfromance on the sat night.
hope everyone got home ok.. took us 6 hours due to flooding oh well....

I was here with a sunbeam
Working on a clothes stall we were, so missed the firey shows, but a great time was had
Y'all should go next time, it is a lovely site, and people also. Music not quite my favourite, but hexstatic where fairly spiffing.
