Our Festival flyer

There’s lots and lots of DJs. Proper house music will be provided by Elliot Eastwick from out of Paper Recordings, Northern and Mod sounds from the excellent Move On Up people, and a stramash of Lord knows what from legendary bootleg monkeys the Pop Bastards.

And, this being a festival, there’s a ton of local live acts too, like Sepia Tone and Yellow Stripe Nine.

It’s only six quid in, and all the profits go to Cancer Research. Tickets are available from TicketWeb, Jumbo Records and The Faversham.

Sounds like a fun way to lose fourteen hours of your Bank Holiday weekend, no?

Shift, Leeds http://submitresponse.co.uk/weblog/2004/02/10/shift-leeds/ http://submitresponse.co.uk/weblog/2004/02/10/shift-leeds/#comments Tue, 10 Feb 2004 11:49:11 +0000 http://mottram.textdriven.com/weblog/?p=565 Feet on pavement marked with startrails

EmergeD, the art gang behind Rooted, a wonderful rolling exhibition in a shopfront on Woodlands Road in Glasgow, are launching a similar experiment in public art in Leeds:

The art project and exhibition, [Shift] will be reclaiming space in the shop unit 60-63 that resides in the Merrion Superstore, in Leeds’ Merrion Centre. Organised by the not-for-profit art group ‘EmergeD’ the project aims to ‘look beneath the everyday city’ and focuses particularly on Leeds as site-specific inspiration.

It’s a game of two halves. First, from the 15th to the 27th of March, in a phase dubbed Process Lab, passers-by will be able to sneak a peek at the 16 participating artists in action, then from the 27th to the 3rd of April their work will be on display.

If it’s anywhere near the standard of the now defunct Rooted project, Leeds-based readers (hello Kate & James!) should be in for some great stuff to look at.
