Hilton Progress Hall, Saturday 11 October 2008
Nomadic Mike in conjunction with VoiceMoves brings you the inaugural Wandering Blackboard concert:
| Time: | Saturday 11 October, doors open at 6pm for a 7pm start |
| Place: | Hilton Progress Hall, Paget Street, Hilton (Directions) |
Entry by donation.
Bring a picnic dinner to share and lots of pillow/blankets, and chat. Performances start at 7pm and finish at 10pm.
This event is to inaugurate a fun series of evenings allowing musicians old and new to try their material. We aim to create regular community events for performers and audiences alike.
Intrigued? Come along to find out more, or to hear the music and other acts, or do a short set yourself. We are hoping to run an average 15 minute slot for individuals (roughly 2-3 songs), 20 minutes for larger ensembles.
Already confirmed are: Brenda Chapman, The Wintersmiths, Pranava, Shalva, Voicemale, and The Spooky Men of the West.
Hope to see you there.
Update
A big thanks to everyone who turned up for contributing towards a great night. It was with some trepidation that we opened the doors, knowing that our advertising had gone out too late. In all we had about 40 people in the audience. The hall had a couple of sofas which helped give a little intimacy to the feel. We almost managed to cover our costs from the donations, so we are encouraged to give it another try soon.
Here are some photos from the night.
