Joking aside, I really think you should get Girls Aloud to perform...(to perform for me that is....)

 

[jane]

Joking aside, I really think you should pay more attention to Cian O'Connor.

Really? Geez.

Anyway, sure, Louis Walsh is making us into a girl band out of this anyway, and we're touring with Girls Aloud next spring, so you're totally in.

[Zeelander]

Can one of you lovely Festfaces please tell me if I can purchase a weekend ticket at the door on Friday night? I'm sure this question has been answered elsewhere and I'm really just looking for attention...

 

[krystal]

We don't need lessons in that. I'm guessing Stitch N Bitch is the name of the knitting circle. Stitch N Bitch is the name of an American book. It promotes the idea of chicks getting togeter having a gossip and knitting funky stuff for theyselves. It's a good book actually!

 

[krystal]

all de info is on the site, barring the workshop host names I think.

The blonde leading the blonde dj's are 2 girls who do breakbeat stuff, as far as I know:

Miss Kitty will be doing 2 - 3 slots between bands on saturday, her stuff focuses on sex - it's a performance piece.

Re: knitting, tis a global thing: http://www.stitchnbitch.org/
so the name has just been appropriated for the weekend.

I have no idea if Baba Yaga are playing any other gigs, sorry. I reckon maybe not though.

oh and the shamcocks are a drag king troupe - so it's girls dressed up as guys I think, I could be wrong)

Sunday early afternoon will consist of women doing improv comedy, the shamcocks act (which sounds really good from what I've read about them) and poetry readings. That's all the info I have right now, so I guess you just need to go along and see for yourself!

 

[krystal]

oooh is it? Deadly, I shall look for it so. I do like to knit, though I haven't done it in years. I want to take part in this actually,hopefully I'll be able to.

There is a circle line stitch and bitch in london, where a load of gals get on a circle line train and knit!!

We don't need lessons in that. I'm guessing Stitch N Bitch is the name of the knitting circle. Stitch N Bitch is the name of an American book. It promotes the idea of chicks getting togeter having a gossip and knitting funky stuff for theyselves. It's a good book actually!

 

[swingkid]

is winona ryder gonna be there?

 

[krystal]

ladyfest presents: How to Rob an American Quilt, starring Winona Ryder

 

[Thayl]

What time is the music finishing on Saturday?

Also, what time (roughly) will Mira Calix/Andrea Parker and Americhord be on at? (the lineup just says "6pm - Late" which is a bit *too* rough)

 

[krystal]

they're on last, at about 10.30. Americhord will be on about 8.45

All this may be subject to change though!

 

[Zeelander]

Jane's on the radio! RTE Radio 1.

 

[aoboa]

What time does the Hub go until on Saturday?

 

[minka]

What time does the Hub go until on Saturday?

12. we couldn't get it until later, unfortunately. we're hoping that mira and andrea's amazing ironing-board-(oh, all right, decks)-based performance will have you all danced out by then and ready to go home for your cocoa.
