Hi all, I've had a lot of replies offlist since my last posting, and due to lack of time, I'm having difficulty in replying personally to your emails... so please excuse my hijacking of the list to keep everyone updated in one post. The date for the loopfest will be the weekend of 28th and 29th of June. I'm hunting for a location to possibly hold a full weekend of looped music - this is just due to the overwhelming response I have had from loopers wanting to play. I'm going to try some large venues, organisations and also the city hall to try and get the space/equipment/people/money to set something like this up. If I manage to sell this idea to the right people, it could become a major event. Paris is in need of something new musically..... Regarding money, I'm not promising anything at the moment. Please consider that you might have to regard this loopfest as a holiday... you might have to pay for your own travel/accommodation/food etc..... but I know that many musicians like myself are poverty cases and could not come if they were not reimbursed for their expenses. I have a zero budget myself, and cannot put a penny into this idea, but I can put in time. So I'm going to try my hardest to get everyone a professional salary/rider for their time here. Please also be aware that I am not going to promise that I can pull this off. I'm an Englishman in Paris, and so far, Paris has always be against me. I've not managed to really get my door in anywhere other than the street.... so this is a big dream that might not work. But I'll try :) If anyone wants to propose themselves for the portfolio of loopers, please send an email to loopfest@solostring.com with (if applicable): * Biog (just write something about yourself, what you do, how you use loops etc) * Photo (Nothing too high-res) * Website link * link to mp3's (please don't mail them) <--- I'm going to make a demo CD. Please only provide a live set... in other words, how it will sound live. If you have no photo's/mp3's/website, then just write something..... I'll make it look glitzy. I'll get all of this into a pamphlet and mailbomb every bloody contact that I have in my 'Official de la musique' bible..... :) Cheers! P.S. Can anyone translate English into French without making the translation look like it was written by a 3 year old? -- Stuart Wyatt (Solo String Project) - http://SoloString.com
