@weaniejeanie53 If you’re ever visiting #Edinburgh consider going to #Summerhall to hang out in a bar with anatomical specimens all around. There’s a gin distillery next door for courage prior to entry. My sort of place: #TheRoyalDickBar

For all performance makers, live do-ers, stage dwellers, and cabaret cavorters...

The massively multidisciplinary variety show I co-run in Edinburgh is looking for bodies to perform work at our next event, our first live one in 3 years.

Just back from Dylan Carlson at #Summerhall in #Edinburgh. Soooooo fine. All those sounds that he makes look effortless, you can get lost in them. Now I understand the appeal of "stoner" metal.
And because the world is a good place when you're open to it, I met old friends at the gig who I'd forgotten would be up for the show.

Got tickets for Dylan Carlson at #Summerhall next month. Curious as to what my Dad will make of it, he seems game but I think my "it's like Ry Cooder but with feedback" sales pitch wasn't believed.

#Gig at #Summerhall in #Edinburgh

NEHH presents... Gyða Valtýsdottir
Sunday 3rd February

Múm’s Gyða Valtýsdottir comes to Edinburgh this February. Gyða's project Epicycle is a post-classical and contemporary exploration through the history of western music, from the two thousand year old ‘Seikilos Epitaph’ to George Crumb’s Black Angels, composed in 1970. "eerie and spacious, holding onto the supernatural quality that has always characterised múm’s work" - Stereogum

All-day (Sat 23rd June) gig at #Summerhall in association with the national Museum's "Rip It Up -- The Story of Scottish Pop"
"Hosted by VIC GALLOWAY, the day will feature:
STANLEY ODD
EMMA POLLOCK
BROKEN RECORDS
BE CHARLOTTE
BABE
MODERN STUDIES
WITHERED HAND
CARLA J. EASTON"

Ha, I'm an idiot. This is why you should always (still! even in 2018!) look at a band's own webpage.
The Assunta Spina I just mentioned event, featuring the #Badwills is also on in #Edinburgh this Saturday at #Summerhall.

But I think my night out budget is spent already for the month 😢 Everyone else should go though, it will be wild.

So, the #Badwills are an #Edinburgh based band doing arrangements of Italian folk songs, tarantella, pizzicarella, etc. Not something I know much about but oh my do they do a footstomping live show.
My feet may feature in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cwri8548Abo though the audio is a bit more sedate than their #Summerhall shows.
There's a couple of albums on Bandcamp, which I haven't listened through yet: https://thebadwills.bandcamp.com/

And of course, they have covered Bella Ciao: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNtsRncbkgU
