Folk Fest comes but once a year.



Oh Folk Festival, You come so rarely. For the non-locals, The Peterborough Folk Festival is a magical time of year in this city, in the same league as Arts Week, but more enchanted and more joyfully anticipated.

This year I have the pleasure of being in the Folk Festival, strangely enough not by playing my music, which definitely falls under a folk category, but by facilitating a noise workshop with Dahn and a guy named Wayne, along with other local noise boys. Notably I dont have the equipment to make noise outside of the radio station, so I am currently executing an internet roundup, to try and find some shit to bang around.

Rolling my eyes at a lack of preparation. Can't get a hold of the parents, who have some of my equipment at their house. I don't have keys even if I had the cash to get there. I am rationing my cigarettes. I found some mini-wheats my sister bought me. Eating those. I'm fresh-out of soymilk.

But I'm wearing my dancing skirt! Yes I am doing that!
