Two Of The World’s Festivals Heavy Weights Are Collaborating

wp-1471499056041.jpg

Two of the worlds festival heavy weights, from the opposite sides of the world are set to collaborate. I am of course talking about South Australia’s Fringe festival and Edinburgh International festival. How exciting for both this beautiful cities, I have been privileged to attend Adelaide’s Fringe Festival many, many  years ago (2002 ish) and it was my first arts festival and it was such a great experience back then, so I could only imagine how awesome it has become come and whats more how,  awesome it will be in the future with the collaboration.

The representatives from the Adelaide Festival, Adelaide Fringe and Festivals Adelaide each have signed official agreements with their Edinburgh counterparts to set joint goals for artistic, business and community collaboration over the next three years. Rachel Healy, Co-Artistic Director of the Adelaide Festival, said the agreement between the Adelaide Festival and the Edinburgh International Festival watershed for both organisations.

“It is thrilling to contemplate a shared future which involves creative collaborations, commissions, and artistic exchange; opportunities to share market insights and new audience and business initiatives; and celebrating the commitment of audiences in both cities to a rich and diverse cultural life,” Healy said.

Adelaide will see an immediate result of the agreement as the United Kingdom’s largest ticketing company, Red61 will be opening in Adelaide.

According to South Australian Arts Minister Jack Snelling, the new $350,000 digital platform will be South Australian owned and will put Adelaide Fringe at the forefront of digital technology in the international festivals industry by streamlining and integrating the way all groups connect with the Fringe, Snelling added that,

This platform will also provide a sophisticated matchmaking for interstate and international buyers looking to purchase new work and improve media and PR interaction with the artists and events and increase access to the Fringe by educators and students of all ages”.

The industry alliance that represents the top 10 arts festivals in South Australia, Festival Adelaide announced that Adelaide will host a meeting of the International Festival Cities Network in March 2017, where representatives from Edinburgh, Barcelona, Krakow, Montreal and Berlin will gather in Adelaide to share their knowledge, Ideas and experience.

Big things are set for Adelaide and Edinburgh in the near future, so watch this space!!

On This Day 18th August 2016 In Music History

wp-1471480159005.png

 

Welcome to the latest edition of OTD! For those that have just discovered us, On The Day is a weekly article where we look back on what happened in music history on that day through the years. This week we kick off in 1962, with some of the usual suspects.

On This Day……

1962

🎙 Ringo Starr made his debut with The Beatles at the horticultural society Dance, Birkenhead, England, having had a two-hour rehearsal in preparation and was the first appearance of The Beatles as the world would come to know them: John, Paul, George and Ringo.

1964

🎙 Over 9,000 frenzied fan met The Beatles as they arrived in San Francisco, to begin an American tour. The Beatles were driven into a protective fence enclosure so that photographers could take pictures. As the 9,000 fans pressed against the fencing, it gave way, with The Beatles managing to get out split-seconds before it came crashing down.

1966

🎙 Paul Jones left Manfred Mann just as ‘Pretty Flamingo‘ was climbing the US charts, Jones was replaced by singer Mike D’Abo who would take over lead vocals on the bands next hit, ‘The Mighty Quinn‘ which was written by Bob Dylan.

1969

🎙 Mick Jagger was accidentally shot in the hand during filming of Ned Kelly in Australia.
