Being as the Essential Music Festival (or whatever) was cancelled in the UK, JC had the idea of pulling together an Orb-themed concert/festival, with the Orb, System 7, Badorb artists, Andy Hughes either playing live or djing. By organizing it for the UK, travel expenses (for the artists) would be kept to a minimum, and quite frankly, you'll get a larger turn out for the event than if you held it here in US. Could it really happen? I don't see why not... they have massive festivals regularly in the UK. Has anyone in the UK offered to help arrange venues, find funding, etc.? Not as far as I know. Is there a list of Orbies who are willing to travel to the UK for such an event? Yes: http://www.migoto.com/orb/live2003.html (Email me privately to get on it... This is just to prove interest to whomever might fund such a venture.) Other list members have discussed meeting up in Australia for some camping and Orb tunes on the radio under the stars, but this is an alternative to what JC originally suggested. Hope that clears up the confusion! ______________________ Rachel's Shrine to The Orb: http://www.migoto.com/orb
