Last night went to Space Cowboy's show
Was pretty good he swallowed swords and glowing neon light tubes down his throat
was pretty interesting
Not that I would do that myself!
Also saw the amazing Rubber Man, some Russian lady doing 5 hoola hoops at once,
Some other lady swallowing swords and some hot guy doing a water spashly/gymnastic
act from his bath tub - lol -

Thu, February 23, 2006 - 1:41 PMFringe Opening Parade and Party tonight!
Sweet dreams of Rymill Park and the Spiegeltent; and Rundle Street filled with amazing happenings! X
I just hope I don't run into the same spruiker I remember from last time... though this year usagi's off on her own so it would play out very differerently if I did. (see eileen.erraticah.net/reports...04.shtml - comedy patter)

Re: Adelaide Fringe Festival 2006
Fri, February 24, 2006 - 7:16 AMYou got an early start!
I went to the opening parade and party tonight. Saw a busker with a sword-swallowing act - wonder if he was the same guy?
Highlight of the night for me - Trippy didg! eMDee from the NT, a drums 'n' bass ensemble with a bank of didgeridoos droning the bass line. I'd go see 'em again!

Sun, February 26, 2006 - 5:19 AMSaw some bands last nite
Some punk band at one pub - they were pretty ordinary
Then went up to Enigma and saw the Dead Bollocks
They wear mexican wrestling masks throw lettuce and tomatos at the crowd
The crowd chucks it back at them - lol
Was a pretty crazy mosh pit
Then the lead singer was sittin on a suspended toilet seat
at one stage they brought out power tools and started attacking their equipment
with them - sparks flying everywhere
as dodgy as they were - it was actually pretty funny to watch
They even brought out a rubber chicken and started bashing it
People tryin' to skateboard and ride bmx bikes thru the mosh pit does not work - lol -

It's still hot here,
Hot day 37C, Hot night still in the 30's
Last few weeks have been totally crazy but good
I'm a little behind on my photos too
gotta get them up to date in the next week or two
Helped Space Cowboy build a new suspension rig
for his show
Tonite is his last night performing here for the Fringe
It's been goin on for 3 weeks now - it's been great
This weekend we got Womadelaide and Adelaide Festival of Arts on as well
- so the city is kinda packed
Started ink on my left forearm on wednesday
It's finally startin' to fill up
still probably got another 3-4 sessions on it to go
More ink this wednesday - start inking my armpits
that is gonna hurt
my laptop has been playin up a little bit too
- may have 2 take it in to get fixed
that could leave me offline for a few days
hope not - but I gotta wait til Tuesday to do that anyway
Next weekend it's the Adelaide Clipsal 500 car race thru the city
and there is a tattoo show on Saturday
I need to go to both - but i'll probably go the tattoo show on saturday
and car race on thursday, friday, sunday
All depends on my pain and low energy levels too
Thats been holding me back lots at crucial times
Usually end up goin home to rest
Instead of goin' out 2 party like I should be
