Bearwood Shuffle

August 17, 2011 by Chris Unitt

A thing from a couple of weeks back with a neat summary of events from The Hearing Aid:

Here’s a (very) brief potted history. Group of Bearwoodians reckon there should be more live music in Bearwood. Groups meets in pubs and bars. Quite a bit. Not a lot happens. Group has a bit of a rethink. Group decides to put on a free afternoon of music in an old, long neglected bandstand in Lightwoods Park. Working on a bit of a shoestring budget group assembles all the kit, fills in all the forms, books all the bands (7 in total…7…ambitious eh?) and does the whole promotions thing. Restoring the group’s faith in human nature around 500 people turn up to watch. Blimey. Slightly sweatier group returns to bar to plan the next one

A full write-up then follows. If that’s relevant to your interests, you’ll be interested in welovebearwood.

I liked their flyer.
