10.41.  II...  III The OCG II in Barcelona on 27th. February, 2009…  E-flurrying. The street I…  II...  Something is in the air, and moving. 14.10 E-flurrying. Off to work with Theo & Fripp at Gloucester College on behalf of the National Star College (Education, Training & Work) PJ Crook will be unveiling a tryptych commissioned by the College, and PJ will be introduced by a few words from Toyah Willcox. 21.58 Gloucester College  … is on the river next to industrial buildings from a former age of prosperity I…  II...  … adjoining a former abbey…  … where we were originally invited to perform. The alternative, the college’s atrium, was chosen as the preferred venue after taking English weather into account I…  II...  III...  IV...  V...  VI...  VII...  VIII...  Mr. Stormy was in support mode to Road Dog Wilkins & the players.  The performance, to c. 80 invited guests for the unveiling, felt rather a chamber recital. Luminaries in the audience included Dr. Margus Laidre (and here) Colin & Helen David of English Eccentrics, & Nick Park, Oscar winner & Wallace & Gromit creator. PJ Crook introduced T&F who played for c. 50 minutes followed by thanks, then the audience moved to an unveiling of the commissioned piece for Gloucester College – Glocerama. Toyah’s introduction was superb. The whole evening felt one of a piece to me. Afterwards, Dr. Margus commented that he loved the second T&F improv; the Minx the last 2 pieces. Personally, a fabbo & most enjoyable evening supporting the arts, pals & good causes. Pretty much life as it might be, then. Back in the rain to WillyFred. Search Robert Fripp's diary archive. |
