Forest BB

danny

HI! I need somewhere to keep a record of my correspondance with outside organisations regarding Forest, so I thought I'd leave this letter to Barney at the Bongo here. Nick's the secretary isn't he? Should I just send a carbon copy of letters to him? Anyway here's the letter.... Hi there Barney and ...

I have a 60 Watt P.a. system ( the one that got used last year in the festival ), that could be used as long as people looked after it. In the past, it wasn't properly looked after and one of the inputs is now broken along with the reverb spring. As a sign of respect it would be nice if someone coul...

danny

Awesome. Very similar comedy style to Ben Lancaster's reading at the last Golden hour where he wrote this long letter to the makers of Cheeto's cheese puffs disgusted by the lack of danger in their "dangerously cheesy cheese puffs".

danny

I'm up for it! I'd like find some people I could jam with for it... I'll ask the space cadets

danny

Hi! I'm considering volunteering for Buddhafield cafe this summer at a festival or so and I wondered if anyone else was thinking about it? You don't have to do a massive amount of work in return for free tickets and food. I'm wondering if If there was any space in a car? Check here if you're interes...

danny

I think this is a great idea. Go for it. I'm really into the idea of artwork that's interactive like this. The idea of mooving the thing to different areas of the cafe once a certain amount of interest has been generated is cool too.

danny

Yeah, I'd agree with that. I don't want to kill someone's art work, unless they most definately don't want it any more. Maybe people might want to hold onto their tables, give them to friends or sell them to make way for new designs? There is a guy called Kenny who works uplfting the excess from cha...

danny

O.k. We are good to go with the table. This project is an open collaboration. After asking most of the people in the cafe, who seemed like they were interested we decided to base the design for the table loosely around the concept of peace. There is going to be a sun in the middle and the sunrays wi...

danny

Is it cool if I do something with one of the tables? Either a rectangular one in the main room or a square one in the red room. I'm into the idea of letting the idea for what the design is, grow out of the Forest by adding bits of imagery ( drawings/bits of writing/collage/paint/whatever ) as and wh...

1st April - "In Search of the Magic Cornflake" - Freeloading Frank and the Bucking Fastards! I'm trying to encourage Jym Pointer ( http://www.myspace.com/Jym Pointer ) to launch one of his alums at his gig on March 9th. I aim to release either an e.p. or an album called "Sleepless" ( or maybe "Finge...

danny

I'd like to be able to edit the site too. Keeping events updated seems like the main thing.

danny

I think it we should have more active promotion of Forest Artists. We could have a little stand of c.d.'s at the counter where people could buy c.d.'s of people who have played here recently and a list or "menu" of other c.d.'s available. There seems to be so much talent in Edinburgh which could rea...

danny

I've posted this in the front of house too, cos I think it probably concerns both groups. I was thinking it would be cool to have the toilets redone. Are there any kind of established rules about how long someone's decoration should get to stay up before someone else does something? They seem to be ...

The site has changed since I was last using it. There are no longer any icons to upload new content. Pogo suggests trying another computer. Without regular access to a computer which can do this, or fixing the site so I can upload, then I can't help out with the website.

danny

It seems the site has changed since I was last posting writing. There no longer seem to be icons allowing me to upload anything. Pogo says on another computer this should work, but without regular access to one that does, I'm not going to be able to help with the web.

danny

I'm up for doing events submission and interior page design. Want to meet me Thursday at six? I want to catch the events workgroup at seven after, so we'll need to be on time if you want to meet then..

danny

I'm quite likely to be available for basic labouring type stuff as long as their's no full on D.I.Y. involved. Just let me know when and where..

danny

Sounds like what's going on is much the same as what Bryonie was doing with the politics group ages ago. Why not just call it "politics" work group? Or a funky forestised work for the same thing if it seems like too much of a scary word. "Local action" maybe?.. I think "Community" is just misleading.

danny

QUALITY!

PEACE all you fucking CUNTS out there!

danny

I said "just about do" cos you didn't finish it dude. No disrespect intended, don't take it personally. What you did do was cool. Feels like you're too busy. I still need a hand.. Andy? Anyone?..

danny

( Duncan ) Apology accepted. I'm not sure what you mean about the difference between music that is composed and music that is song written, but I think I know what you're saying about the whole solo singer songwriter "aren't I so sensitive thing". It pisses me off too sometimes. I rarely listen to t...

danny

Hi! I need to get a demo with a professional looking cover done soon. Anyone interested in helping? I have some good designs on jpegs that my mate Andy has done on photoshop that would just about do, so you could help finish what he has started or use your own ideas. The songs are here If anyone cou...

danny

Sometimes, it seems like you really go out of your way to annoy people Duncan and that really bugs me..Anyway.. My current set is mostly from a pretty depressed place, yeah. If you are down and you write songs on your own, that's what they will sound like. I wasn't talking about my current set thoug...

danny

http://www.pandora.com You chose a song or artist and it plays stuff that it thinks sounds similar. So you get to hear loads of new music that you might not have thought about for free. It's like your own personalised web radio station. I've been listening to "lemonjelly radio" and "aim radio" latel...

danny

Hi! My friend Kenny and me play at Forest here and there and every Sunday night at the Leftbank. We're looking to meet someone who is an ace hand-drummer, if you can sing some soft backing vocals for certain songs too, that would be awesome. You can hear some of my acoustic tunes at http://www.myspa...

danny

Hi!
If you are an AMAZING DJ... Band.. Electronic Music Guru...then I could really use your help getting some bouncy missions off the ground.. I'm thinking some sort of uplifting hip-hop/reggae/drum'n'bass thing. I sing, rap, make beats and I need your help to bring it together.

danny

Saawt it aat!! Whatcha onnabaat? It's just a recowdin' innit.. INNIT!! I int dun nufink! NUFINK!!

danny

That's reassuring. Thanks. I was worried. Andy has offered to put up the money for the time we may need in order to get into there at a time which suits us both, which is cool! The 'random schedule' thing still is a little harsh though. We hadn't planned to go in there and record that day, ...

danny

I can understand the caution around such expensive stuff and I appreciate that you are trying to help, but I think things are a little confused.. This is not about me doing things on my own random schedule. Robin and Andy are too busy. Gareth, I asked you a couple of times some time ago if you w...

danny

Cheers for the support dudes! Robin says I have to go in there with Andy, which I feel is unnecessary. I mean it's not that Andy's help isn't useful it's just that I can do most of it myself and play what I've recorded to Andy on a c.d. back at the house for feedback. Besides, Andy has started a...

danny

To be trusted to use the studio without anyone else having to be there, ideally.
While I'm here, there is a "7 things to do before I die" thing that Neil started up that I'm inviting you to join on the Forest Blogg. Check it out.

danny

This is really a shame, but I guess I need to look around at other labels. it just doesn't feel right..When the friends of the Forest inspired some of these tunes..

danny

Hi! I REALLY want to record a good radio quality c.d. of some of my acoustic stuff. With a little moral and technical support ( that is usually around the Forest ), I'm confident I can figure my way around the studio. I have been to music college and have some experience of these things. I can ...
