Devil's Advocate
This has only just occurred to me. I don't know why it has, but it has.
You know the movie Devil's Advocate with Keanu Reeves and Al Pacino? Well... do you think that the writer was one day thinking, "Oh, Devil's Advocate, that kind of sounds like the Devil has an attorney... whoa dude, that's crazy, I'm gonna write a movie about it!". If so, is that clever or stupid? (such a fine line).
Anyway, I'm back from New York. Busy as hell with everything here, work and play. You aren't interested in my work, I'm sure, so more about the fun stuff. The Fringe Festival has a launch party on Wednesday. See here for tickets if you want to come. We had a meeting about it last night and it all sounds very exciting.
I hope that we get some more volunteers to help out of the launch party, there is incredible potential this year. I mean, last year was great we did a lot in the time we had but this year has the potential to be incredibly exciting if we can get all the stuff we want to do off the ground. One bonus is that Paul C, who basically co-ordinated us all for last years fringe, is now going to be available to join in this year. Which is fantastic. He, strangely, doesn't appreciate quite how much he did last year for the fringe but it's great to have him back!
We are also trying to work out what is going to happen with the next Screwball Cabaret. Planning a diverse line-up where we think all the bands are great and including some local talent (who haven't already played) is an interesting challenge.
