Paddycon 2009 - The Leprechauns are coming AGAIN! - Are you?!

seanans_poorgriponreality — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 13:12:33 GMT

Leprechaun sightings have been increasing in recent years due to habitat loss.

The unprecedented encroachment of humanity and the digging up of their burrows due to the expansion of the road infrastructure has led to more and more urbanisation.

Now, they're starting to organise.

Once again they will emerge from their hidden locations all over the country to gather in the Capital city, to celebrate and spread their crazy mayhem and harmless havoc. Yes, the Leprechauns are coming - are you?

The streets of Dublin will be invaded by the Little Green Men (and Women) SATURDAY MARCH 7th. Paddarchy™ will undoubtedly ensue and so the gathering cannot stay in one place for long!

They will have a secret route, to be announced close to the event.

The Green Invasion needs you!

* SEE the stunned expression on the faces of an unsuspecting public!

* HEAR the alternating screams of excitement and confusion!

* TASTE the booze!

* FEEL the Leprechaun Love!

* SMELL the booze!

The Authentic Shamroguery™ of Paddycon happens SATURDAY the 7th of MARCH, 2009.

To be a part of the Paddycon shenanigans, join the email list. Send an email NOW to:

paddycon-subscribe@googlegroups.com

You'll be able to talk to your fellow shillelagh-wielding leprechauns, and get all the nitty-gritty details (who/what/when/where/how) of this fun and rousing event.

Oh and don't forget the potatoes - and the after party in a top secret location.

Then, mark your calendar for SATURDAY MARCH 7th. Dublin will never be the same again.

See you on the Paddycon list!

- Brogeen

Leprechaun attire required - no hat-only Leprechauns!

Who will be Miss Smokin' Craic 2008? It could be YOU!

stacycats — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 20:01:30 GMT

MISS SMOKIN' CRAIC! 2008: IRISH PAGEANT OF SELF-PROCLAIMED BEAUTIES

The Miss BRC Project* is proud to announce the first IRISH Pageant of Self-Proclaimed Beauties! Participation is open to everyone. All he's, she's and ze's of any (or no) sexual preference/identity are invited to take part. Give yourself a title starting with the prefix "Miss", make a sash and you are ready! The more Irish the better!

We are also looking for a lively, fun Master or Mistress of Ceremonies to host the event. Only those who can handle a Smokin' crowd and who truly grasp the concept of satire need apply ;-) Please email Ireland@burningman.com if you are interested in MCing the pageant.

MISS SMOKIN' CRAIC! 2008: IRISH PAGEANT OF SELF-PROCLAIMED BEAUTIES
Irish Decompression, Smokin' Craic!
November 15, 2008
Tivoli Theatre, Dublin

Purchase your tickets for the decompression here: http://www.irishburners.org/events.htm

Participants will reveal their unique Irish beauty in these three categories:

1) Fashion: Show us your personal Smokin' Irish Playa Style!
2) the Two Minute Talent Competition: No rules, and everyone has a talent - be it a stupid party trick or a fine art! Anything goes.
3) the Interview: Do you do it for world peace, the children, the Craic, or for the puppies!?

Represent your province/county/city/town/village, your alter-ego, or just yourself! Show us your inner Irish beauty!

Miss Smokin' Craic 2008 will be eligible to represent Ireland and is guaranteed to receive special treatment at the Miss BRC 2009 on-playa event! However, all finalists are beautiful and everyone wins by participating.

NOTE: No Beauty pageant is fair, bribes are encouraged, and we have assembled a panel of eminently bribable judges. Participate for FUN, rather than play to win!

Too shy to participate in the pageant? We encourage you to do it anyway! However, donating a creative Gifty Prize to the pageant participants is a great way to share the wonder of your art or yourself with both the participants and all audience members without that mortifying stage time. Email your intentions to us at Ireland@burningman.com and share the love!

Who will be Miss Smokin' Craic 2008? It could be YOU!

See all you Craicpots there!

(*The Miss Black Rock City Project challenges participants, spectators, and the world at large to take a closer look at the individual communities that make up our fair playa city and the unique beauties that lie therein. Check out the MBRC Project website for photos, and information on past events, and our FAQ, located at: http://www.missblackrockcity.com/FAQ.htm )

SMOKIN' CRAIC! - CALL FOR ARTISTS, PARTICIPANTS & VOLUNTEERS!

seanans_poorgriponreality — Tue, 23 Sep 2008 16:54:33 GMT

If you are interested in co-creating our very special night on
November 15th in Dublin, we welcome you. Volunteering for
Decompression is an exciting and rewarding way to immerse yourself in
the the Burning Man community here in Ireland, to meet new people and
experience something very special.

Of course we need our experienced burners to come out and bring their
insight & experience. But we also want to put the call out there to
those new to our community. If you haven't been to the playa before
or interacted with the rest of us here, this is an *excellent* way of
getting to know us, what we do, learn about our values and our unique
brand of craic!

We need enthusiastic volunteers to help with all aspects of our
decompression.

* For general interest, contact our Minister of Hype and
Indoctrination, Seanan O'Rourke at seanan79@hotmail.com

* To help decorate this amazing venue, contact Decor Team Coordinator
Ines Billings at ines_billings@yahoo.co.uk

* We're looking for a Leave No Trace co-ordinator, someone who can
communicate this important ethic to our mixed crowd. Contact Event
Coordinator Randy Ralston at dreamer@runbox.com

* If you're a fire performer and would like to contribute your skills,
contact Fire Performance & Safety Coordinator Michelle Crawford at minishelly@hotmail.com

* If you are a healer or bodyworker and want to share some of your
time and energy on the night, contact Healing Hands Coordinator Mel
Cronin at mel.cronin@gmail.com

We would also like to invite anyone working in the field of
interactive, electronic, or video/sound art to get involved.

Here's an idea of the kinds of stuff we'd like to see:

Interactive pieces of all decriptions
Inflatables
LED works of every type
Organic structures
Light & laser based installations
Sonic Installations of widely varying function & effect
Flame effects
Mathematical/CAD structures & engineering follies of every flavour

If anyone has pre-existing work that they think would play well at
Smokin' Craic!, that they would like to present to a very appreciative
audience to giddily enjoy, and that is of a sufficiently robust nature
to survive within a non-gallery space for at least eight hours, please
contact Ines Billings at ines_billings@yahoo.co.uk

* Non-performance sound artists should contact Sound Art Coordinator
Clifton Evans at clifton.evans@gmail.com

* If you would like to VJ or present projected work, please contact
Video God Diarmo Horkan at averylargenumber@gmail.com

For 'non-of-the-above' queries contact Randy Ralston at dreamer@runbox.com

Join the others in our great volunteer/participant team who have a
great attitude, an open mind, and a sense of fun, giving of themselves
to help create meaningful experiences for others in our community. It
is its own reward.

Celtic Myth Podshow

Ruthie — Thu, 29 May 2008 01:29:36 GMT

Hi all,

I apologise if advertising here causes offence but I am hoping that
the subject of this podcast will be of sufficient interest to the
subscribers to this list to warrant inclusion.

I produce the Celtic Myth Podshow (http://celticmythpodshow.com) which
is a free MP3 download and aims to tell the stories of Celtic
mythology to its listeners. We have started with the Irish
Mythological Cycle and aim to cover all of the Six Nations in the
series. The by-line of the show is "Bringing the Tales and Stories of
the Ancient Celts to your Fireside" which is the atmosphere we would
like to create. The old legends were recounted orally and only written
down in later years, so by hearing them told we are getting a step
closer to their original presentation and hopefull, meaning. That's
the theory anyway :) Our website also includes Maps of Ireland
with the places mentioned in the stories marked. Many of these places are
still exist and are spiritual centres to many people
You can find these maps in the resources section of the website.

You can find us on itunes or download/listen to the episodes on the website

I hope this is of interest to some

Thank you

Ruth

nowhere

drunkennurse — Fri, 23 May 2008 17:41:13 GMT

Ever been nowhere?

A place where you cease to exist as you do in the default world, where your relationships with those around are based not on "What can you do for me?" but "What can we do together?", a place where Radical Self-Expression and Radical Self-Reliance become Radical Realities.

Nowhere is a 5 day event in Northern Spain, based upon the principles of Burning Man in Nevada, it is an experiment in participatory creation where everyone holds a piece of the puzzle.

We truly are a Leave No Trace event. You must bring everything you need to survive in a harsh desert environment. There is no commerce at Nowhere. No money. No shopping. If You need something, You make it happen.. And everything you bring you are responsible for taking away.

Nowhere explodes into existence for 5 amazing days, it's participants bringing art, music, life, love, chaos and adventure into a world that has lost sense of the primal reasons for existence... then it fades back to the dust from which it blossomed.

A gift economy, radical self expression, radical self reliance, leave no trace and no spectators.... these guiding lights, and the natural filter of
the desert, mean that Nowhere is not for everyone. But if you are one of those who value human interaction over financial exchange, who love to create just for the sheer joy of creating, who are one of "... the mad ones, the ones mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing but burn, burn, burn like fabulous roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..."

then maybe Nowhere is for you

Village green Meeting,

This is a 100% unashamed plug of the Nowhere Village green meeting on the 19th. taking place in the awesome space that is the george in Hackney, E london.

This is gonna be the First year Nowhere has such a meeting and myself and Jess are spearheading the Campaign to get as many of you to come down as possible. This especially includes individuals just finding out about Nowhere or planning on coming for the first time. and even if it looks like you’re not going to Nowhere jobs sucking your fun time away/will have a new little person popping outta you/will be washing lepers in India/are skint/or will most likely be on remand, come along and get inspired for next year.

As Nowhere is growing and changing so is the way we have to do things. Communications are such an example this year there’s going to be 400 of us on that dusty Spanish hill side, so were looking at ways to get better at helping Nowhere get its messages out to as many of you as possible and vice versa. We now have a dedicated communications team, and a translations team who are translating our newsletters into 7 languages!! Including Esperanto, if William shatners in, then I'm in.

But of course Email is just foreplay.

That’s why the village green meeting is important for this year. Most of the organising crew will be there, speaking about the way things will work for the projects they are co-ordinating, answering questions, and by their very rock star nature reminding you of how integral participation is to Nowhere.

Information will be provided on all things related to

Ticketing and pricing

Local information and how to source materials locally

Theme Camps

Volunteering opportunities

Art and Art Grants

The Art of Leaving no Trace

And a whole load more juicy informative goodness.

In keeping with the Village green theme we will be raising some funds to help nowhere this year, by running a bake sale so please bake some cakey goodness which we can sell with a cup of tea or a coffee. Meetings are always better with cake right??

We are having this meeting so that those of you planning on attending nowhere will be able to share that information with your friends planning on coming with you, and eventually with your neighbours on our dusty site in windswept Spain.

It is also a great opportunity to talk to people who are planning on running theme camps, or those looking to start one. Planning an art project that needs help, or looking to share your decor skills with some lucky lucky empty dome? Then I can’t think of a better place to be on a mid April Saturday noon.

After the meeting we will be showing some films about Nowhere and The crew of burners who left straight from the playa to help with the disaster relief after Katrina in 2005.

And the Arocalypse crew will be throwing their fundraiser that night in the very same venue so you don’t even have to venture too far for that one

Of course we recognise that not everybody lives within easy access of London. Next year we hope to have a few village greens around Europe with regional groups organising local gatherings in their home cities. We will make a decent set of minutes to be available on line.

Of course if you wanna set up a similar meeting in your neck of the woods for this year then I may just come to you and give you a hand

The Venue for the Village Green is

The George

Ask me for the adresss

We are planning on having the village green from 3pm till 5 and then show the movies so please pencil it into your diaries, concoct the relevant excuses for employers, finnish your dissertation a week early and tell your house mate to shove her 30th birthday.....well maybe not that harshly.

Any love is welcome:

Hey fellow Irish Burners,

I see this tribe is a bit quiet, but I just wanted to introduce myself. Recently an ex-virgin hailing from Sligo, but living over in Bristol. Have recently made friends with the UK Euroburner posse at the London Decompression, also met several other Irish burners that night! Contemplating Nowhere 2007 in July with that crowd of mentalists. Been thinking it would be great to organise an Irish burner meet sometime in the spring/summer, I know theres lots of us out there, its just we tend to be a bit quieter than out European cousins. Anyways, say hi back...

Paddycon 2008

seanans_poorgriponreality — Sat, 16 Feb 2008 22:16:34 GMT

Leprechaun sightings have been increasing in recent years due to
habitat loss. The unprecedented encroachment of humanity and the
digging up of their burrows due to the expansion of the road
infrstructure has led to more and more urbanisation. Now, they're
starting to organise.

This year, on the Saturday before St. Patrick's day, they will emerge
from their hidden locations all over the country to gather in the
Capital city, to celebrate and spread their crazy mayhem and harmless
havoc. Yes, the Leprechauns are coming - are you?

The streets of Dublin will be invaded by the Little Green Men (and
Women) SATURDAY MARCH 15th. Paddarchy will undoubtedly ensue and so
the gathering cannot stay in one place for long! They will have a
secret route, to be announced close to the event.

The Green Invasion needs you!

SEE the stunned expression on the faces of an unsuspecting public!
HEAR the alternating screams of excitement and confusion!
TASTE the booze!
FEEL the Leprechaun Love!
SMELL the booze!

The Authentic Shamroguery™ of Paddycon happens SATURDAY the 15th of
MARCH, 2008.

To be a part of the first ever Paddycon shenanigans, join the email
list. Send an email NOW to:

paddycon-subscribe@googlegroups.com

or visit http://groups.google.com/group/paddycon

You'll be able to talk to your fellow shillelagh-wielding,
leprechauns, and get all the nitty-gritty details (who/what/when/
where/how) of this rousing event.

Then, mark your calendar for SATURDAY MARCH 15th. Dublin will never
be the same again.

Nowhere 2008 tickets on sale

seanans_poorgriponreality — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 20:46:53 GMT

Taken from Nowhere Tribe...

Nowhere 2008 !!!
European Regional Burn
9th - 13th July, 2008 Monegros Spain

(versión española abajo)
_________________________________________________

It's time to start thinking about Nowhere again - although I'm sure lots of you already were! It's time again to go to the Middle of Nowhere for all that art, pirates, sun, munchkins, desert, cowboys, theme camps, ninjas and geishas, parties, rock stars, mujahideen, costumes, French love and Irish pubs, lemmings, burrows and more. Chai in the desert and dance-offs. Wigs and wookies. Miss Nowhere and gorgeous toilets. Mullets. Not to mention the Radical Self Reliance and Self Expression that you know you just LOVE!!! So no moping or mooping, get your tickets NOW!

Don't miss out- Tickets go on sale today, 1st February.

As last year there are three levels of tickets:

€60 - low income - on sale 1st February to 29th February

And for kids aged 5-12 on sale 1st February to 30th May, both by emailing letmein@goingnowhere.org

€90 - adult tickets - on sale 1st February to 30th May for sale online on the
website at www.goingnowhere.org/tickets

€120 - full-price tickets - on sale 1st February up to 30th June, available online.

Being a relatively new event, Nowhere needs your support at the highest ticket level you can afford. Please help us by buying the €120 tickets if you can. Your purchase of a 120 Euro ticket helps someone on a lower income to attend the event.

Nowhere is a pre-sales event. You can not just turn up. No tickets are for sale at the gate.

The cost of your ticket purchase goes towards the not inconsiderable amount of organisation and infrastructure that is required to build Nowhere from nothing and return it to nothing afterwards.

Also a large proportion of ticket sales goes towards funding art at Nowhere. If you are interested in applying for an art grant for your project go to www.goingnowhere.org/ArtGrants

Those of you with kids will have noticed that again this year there is a ticket price for children. We've committed to start accommodating kids, but we need parents' help in founding safe spaces for them. There'll be more on this in a newsletter soon. For tickets:
- you can bring kids under 5 free but please let us know
- kids 5-12 are welcome with €60 tickets
- kids 13-17 are considered adults for ticketing but must be accompanied
by a parent or guardian

Get ready to Go Nowhere!!

Love,

The NOrg crew

Hello Irish Burners,

We're Kay & Mike from Bad Idea Theater. We'll be visiting Dublin from March 15-19th. We'd love to meet some Irish Burners or get your advise on what to see & do while we're there. We've got a hotel, not looking for a place to crash, just looking for advise on making the most of our Irish vacation. I know we're Americans, but we'll try not to break your country.

Any thoughts or advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Eli — Thu, 26 Jul 2007 14:49:03 GMT

Hey Kids,
The rain is prohibiting my usual activities, so I started playing with this, here's my massage to Burners Without Borders www.burnerswithoutborders.org:

Hey BWOB,

I'm in London right now and I'm thinking the flooding here is getting really bad and might be a good poroject for BWOB. I've never volunteered for BWOB, but I just went to NOWHERE (the euro-burn in Spain) and now have a TON of burner friends in London who may be interested. This rain is putting me out of my outdoor work (busking) and even though I'm broke, I got skills (handyman, strong, lots of volunteer coordinating experience, etc.....) and I'm playin with this idea. Whadaya thank? I already put myself on a list with the UK Red Cross, so maybe we could coordinate with them as a group? anyway, just some brainSTORMS (ha ha).

much love,

Burning Beach - Sligo 26th May

seanans_poorgriponreality — Sat, 12 May 2007 02:30:10 GMT

Hey everyone,

There's gonna be a small gathering of burners at beach location in the county Sligo, on Saturday May 26th.

All things going to plan, and if the weather holds out, we'll have ourselves a decent wee night.

Be prepared to spend the whole night out on the beach (i.e. bring some warm clothes, a sleepin bag, and maybe even a tent) as well as all your favourite fire toys and playa accessories!

Burner gathering and Party this Saturday!

seanans_poorgriponreality — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 17:09:57 GMT

Hey peeps,

There is a slight change of plan for the IrishBurner gathering on this Saturday 28th April!

It seems to be a bad weekend for many of members of the community, and as such we couldn't warrant organising a dedicated venue for the night without the numbers. The plan is now to attend a charity event being thrown at Tailors Hall, Christchurch, in aid of Cancer Care West (www.cancercarewest.ie). Tickets for the event are €25, and its a BYO event. There's a whole host of DJs and live performances planned for the event, and it should be a great night.

If you fancy coming along, either contact Ian via the www.irishburners.com mailing list for info on tickets, or you can contact the gig organisers directly at charityrave@gmail.com! There still should be a decent Irishburner contingent, and it would be great have as many there as possible!

Also, if any of you are true pyros and fancy doing some fire-spinning at the event, also get in touch, as they would love to have some more at the event.

We shall arrange a meeting place shortly before the gig to become acquainted with each other, as many of us are yet to meet!

Hope to see you all there!

Are any Irish Burners intending on attending this years Nowhere event in Spain? I'm seriously considering it now that I've gotten to know some of the Euroburner posse in London a bit better, and all reports are that its an amazing few days!
