Kind of a response to an enjoyable post last week by Ootwoods ( http://ootwoods.livejournal.com/41968.html ) concerning the philly folk fest, but since I waited far too long to respond, I don’t...chance (Rise above, we’re gonna rise above) We are tired of your abuse Try to stop us its no use Rise above Rise above Rise above Were gonna rise above Were gonna rise above Were gonna rise above
This is what my room/the mess outside of it looks like right now. The first coat is done now. Thanks for helping out, gabi! It was lots of fun listening to simple plan, and then le tigrewhile doing...past. Purge. Clean. That kinda thing. This is a picture of a rare breed of short-necked, white skinned primate which was found at calgary folk fest. Well everyone else gets to take their shirts off..
i am revelling in my own glory right now. last night i got to haul a wagon full of chairs and a tent to my house from chantele's. during the day i went on kijiji and responded to two ads for folk fest...my friends. tomorrow i will awaken at 5 am and get in ashlee's car to go in a "secret lineup" for people who are crazy for campsites. all for a good, tree shaded spot. you love it. i love it
Folk fest finished on Sunday but I've been too lazy to post this. This is another list (who saw that once coming) of the various people I discovered and enjoyed this year. Ndidi Onukwulu African Guitar...was a bit of a disappointment. They are much better live. I've decided I really like Buck 65 live but not so much recorded. Anyways. It was a whole lot of fun and I can't wait until next year!
Rembetika Hipsters – Catchy Greek folk tunes with a twist of funk. Good to dance to, the singers voice was very robust and hearty; it felt like my uncle was singing around the campfire. ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCSTmqrH9oE - Martin Sexton Glory Bound this one had the best sound, tough luck about the crappy video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVwsUBu8NMM - Nathan Sunset Chaser
Here is my list of things I need to bring to Folk Fest. And yes I realize that this is useful to no one other than me but that's alright. It can help me obtain my goal of having tonnes of random lists... This list will probably be edited and the like as I remember things and as I realize that I -really- should have brought that that day and I have to remember to bring it the next day. Cheers, Yausam
I have not updated this in about a month and so here goes: More lessons from this year's (2007's) Folk Festival - If you hang out with a certain extremely tall person (I mention no names) you will almost...and run up and give that friend a hug, (aka the REALLY embarassing times. P.S Alays rememberto bring somone who can jump about 3 meters downwards and land on their feet when climbing in hay lofts
