Another pint!!!

Anyone know any company that might like to sponsor it!
Wouldnt be looking for a fortune just enough to cover some running costs and maybe an orange juice - - or something for the bands!!

Shame.

As for sponsorship, why not ask around? In fact, I'm sure Vulcan or Dounreay would sponsor it. They have resources for this type of thing... don't they?

aye you even told me it was on

**Jeid** · 09-Jul-06, 10:06

I was just reminding you

Hey Gogglebox, Any chance of giving me a poster to put up in Top Joes?

There's one upstairs, but there wasn't one in Top Joes and we think a lot of people might go from down there.

Gimme a shout, or drop one in.

Should have told me. BBC TV gave me a few seconds air time last weekend. If I'd known I'd have made up a T-shirt.

**Jeid** · 12-Jul-06, 10:20

Hahaha... That would've been class!

You gonna do a wee review Pepsi? Or are you just gonna get bleazin?

**Jeid** · 12-Jul-06, 11:25

There's currently an e-mail flying around BT about this gig.

I'd love to - would certainly be no shortage of 'colour' to write about - however the papers are rammed over August (T on the Fringe, Edinburgh Castle Shows, and the Edinburgh Festival) so there's little chance of gaining any coverage, sadly. That said, you never know...

**Gogglebox** · 12-Jul-06, 21:42

Little bit more info for you all

THis is the running order - - EstreLLA being the Finale
Estrella

Isaac our Sound GURU who as i said has the final say on all things musical has asked that all bands report into the office ~~~SOBER ~~~ONE HOUR BEFORE YOU ARE DUE TO GO ON which will be on the Park Lane side of the field kind of behind the stages.
Its a blue caravan and have the pleasure of speaking to me and some of Isaccs crew so we can preplan the set changeovers etc

Im thinking of other things to call you right now!!lol

I have corrected it and check your email

You superstars are torturous - - -be the white smarties in a dish next lol!

As i said to him in a direct email if you spot mistakes let us know we dont want to make this look rubbish we want to be slick and professionel and present us and the bands in a great light and get max GOOD publicity for being a well run event with excellent bands and who knows where we go from that for future events

I have to admit my typos are atrocious as i try to go to fast

Anyway i repent all my errors and sins!! Should take a wee while for that to happen though!!
