I can do

dance performances also in London (and that makes me a happy bunny).

Young ones

playing old school.

Luckily

I returned back to London in time to catch her debut album launch party. Congrats!

My first concert

in London after a long time. It was a nice gentle return to the city (but I wish I understood the lyrics to the Swedish song).

This was her favourite shot

of her from this concert, so I guess it deserves to be on the blog. They turned a few of my poems into songs and my favourite of them was Kiss me, Hug me of which they made a truly great job.

Ringside

Somewhere between a concert, a performance and a boxing match... in progress.

Can't wait

to see what they will create (unfortunately it looks like I will not be here for their opening night, but I know there will be more opportunities to see them - and photograph them of course)

The peephole

seemed to be the most enjoyable exhibit.

This is the sort of TV I watch

 TV Smith

Followed by a bit of classic punk (UK Subs)

Some wild indoors skiing

at the Anti-Valentine cabaret at Tiffany's. 

Tea everywhere you look

but there can never be enough tea.

 And after all that tea I went for a cruise round Metelkova to see what else is happening and found two concerts in the first two places I walked into, Prismojeni profesorji bluesa

and Saša 21.

Brain

damn the human brain. (I guess you will have to read Vonnegut's Galapagos and Darwin's The Voyage of the Beagle and On the Origin of Species to get a better understanding of this post - or - here is an idea - go and see the performance).

Managed to catch

 Ulay's exhibition on its last day.

 And this is the panda (and man) that made the Couch festival possible (it was the last day today).

Some evenings

I just go and grab a beer with my friends (and take my small camera with me and take a photo or two)

The afternoon session

 

of the couch festival in a living room

and a part of the evening party.

She came back

and she was even better than the first time round.

My first couch festival

(and no, it is not for couch potatoes)

 First I got invited to a puppet play at a top secret private location

 And then a lot of us ended up at the Wild Strings Trio birthday party 

 at the couch Festival

which was a bit more of an open public event. 

Last day of the Ment Festival

and I have seen 23 acts in 3 days and took a whooping 3182 photographs. Here are a few from the last day

Lynch

Crvi

Baden-Baden

Please the Trees

Gustave Tiger

Apey

Telemama

Miha Peterlič

Ment 2017, day 2

One half of Coals

One third of Birthh

Sara Renar

Two thirds of Straight Mickey and the Boyz

A quarter of The Ills

The wild woman from The Jack Wood

КУКЛА

One third of White Wine

The first day was easy

it was all at the same venue and love was in the air. 

Koala Voice (I always enjoy listening to them, but this time I felt they didn't make a step forward form the last time I saw them - and until now they always managed to do that)

Erki Pärnoja (I wasn't quite in the right mood for them that evening)

Heymoonshaker (they were my favourites of the evening as they really managed to fill the place with their energy and amazing sounds).

 Sauropod (reminded me of someone but could't quite put my finger on it)

Tommy Cash (with a name like that you would expect him to be the younger (rather unknown) brother of Johhny, but no, he is a wacky rapper from Estonia (of all places).

Leni Kravac, ended the evening with a wild boost of energy.
