Fumbling Towards Ecstasy

About a boy who randomly posts but is filled with many thoughts, most of them ridiculous, some stupid and the odd one intriguing...

So, Folk Festival was AMAZING. As I was only there on Saturday on Sunday, I must say that I found the main stage a little lacklustre but the workshop stages blew my mind. Similar to other people's reviews, Oh Sister Where Art Thou? and UK 2K02 OK? blew my mind. Also, Don't Let The Door Hit You on Your Way Out, A Room of One's Own and Bursting at the Themes were also wicked. I just love how great musicians can use music as a dialogue across culture, style and genre. Such talented artists...

Seeing Linda and Bob was also so nice- they are definitely family. The funniest thing is that because I spend so little time with gay friends or at gay clubs and because I'm not really allowed to be gay at home, when I get around people I'm comfortable with, it's almost like a purge. Poor Linda endured most of it (considering the weather was hot and half the bois at folk fest were half naked!)
