Queer Alternative Fundraiser
Mar. 12th, 2014 11:40 pmLooks like I'm putting on a gig.
It's the fundraiser for the Queer Alternative to raise money for a float in this year's Pride Parade. Someone suggested Andrew O'Neill to headline (which I actually argued against -- my opinion being that someone who identifies as queer would be more appropriate), but loads of people seconded him. I happened to be going to see him perform stand-up tonight, so I asked him in person and he said yes right away!
And I can get the Elixir Bar for free... so it looks like I've taken the reins of the planning. Which is great. I love putting on gigs :)
I might also be playing the piano on a few songs with another group member who sings. That'll be a lot of new music to learn, what with the songs I'll be playing with Dave Winkler's acoustic band when the Memepunks play in April (oh yeah! 12th April, Memepunks acoustic at Soundbox, The Fiddlers Elbow, Chalk Farm). Fortunately no new Memepunks material since we're still recording.
Woo gigging and performing, best things in life :)
