I Am Not Alone

Shagga is onto a good thing with Michael Franti's directional debut"I Know I Am Not Alone". Here is an excerpt from a recent email from Shagga.

Michael Franti has just been touring round Oz presenting this movie that he made about Iraq and the Israel/palestine situation... he travels to the aforementioned countries with a few friends and his guitar (and only one shirt by the looks of it) and talks to a whole range of people, sings some tunes, freaks a few of them out and basically just connects with the habibis of the world.... it's kind of a view of the situation from a musicians perspective rather than the usual journalistic/poltician's take on things.....it's not about the politics, its about the people... and as we all know only too well --> all the freaky people make the beauty of the world.... there's nothing shocking or new just a worthwhile thing he has done and you should see it if you want to be inspired by that.....

Splendor tickets on sale May15


Splendor is almost upon us. Tickets go on sale May 15th for the only winter festival in this part of the world on July 24 and 25th. No announcements yet of the line up. We will have to wait till the end of the month for any announcements. Any guesses for a possible line up?????? Wolf Mother?? Gorillaz?? Cat Empire?? It's about time the Chemical Brothers graced our shores.

What do you think.

All I can tell you is it will be the largest Splendor ever with 17,500 tickets going on sale. the festival will take over extra area within the Belongil Fields site.

Anyone interested or better still got a plan in motion?
