Projectile Anarchist Festival, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, 23-26th May - line up

so, you never had anything to do with projectile and you haven't been kicked out of the organising group in any way shape or form, geography irrelevant?

Ok then.
 
So many of the smilies embody the direction this thread has taken. Which one to use, which one to use...




Got to be a straightforward ;) I think
 
Off what? I have never been to a Projectile organising meeting.

A Projectile Organising meeting?

Here's an agenda item.

It's a perennial problem with Projectile that they don't answer emails. They seem content - Ryanair style - to leave it to the website to answer any queries. And it doesn't.

We'll try again next year.

what frampton, what did you want to tell projectile? I got emails from then on all kinds of things (mostly about speakers and movies) and i live in london. Can't be that hard to get hold of them surely?

I've personally answered about 15 e-mails from the site in the last couple of days. Is there something you wanted answered?

I never considered myself 'in' Projectile, they all knew each other & I am 'a new kid on the block'.

C' mon Tax - you should know better. Since when have anarchists had democracy, fair play, accountability, a constitution (they stick to) etc the tyranny of structurelessness roolz.

If you were never in Projectile, how did you develop this critique of the group? ;)

C'mon Attica - you know you were kicked out for constant abuse and disruption. Bit silly pretending otherwise when there are members of Projectile reading these boards.

I never said it was a critique of Projectile btw. I haven't got a clue what was going on with the decision making process, what I was 'kicked out for' or anything, there were no rules and they made up boundaries as they went along. you will all like this bit, after mucho agonising i was issued a yellow card, for what I wasn't told - then without my doing anything else they issued the red!! I could broadcast more incompetance but I won't at this point.

I am calling it as I see it - i was never part of your group. 'Constant abuse and disruption' - given the constantly shit decisions you were making what do you expect (this is all done via email btw).

Originally I asked for a Mayday meeting via email, they said 'no' at a meeting cos 'it would be unfair to other magazines' -and you expect me NOT to get upset at that shit politics?????

It would be more of a surprise if I tolerated that rubbish - I told you this over email and you know it. I tried to keep it from public airing to stop this sort of pointless point scoring ahead of the event, but I will put my point of view across as you are having a go at me.... See you at Projectile old chap.
 
4thwrite,

We sent the same unanswered emails last year.

Wanted a more user-friendly guide to where the venue actually is in Newcastle.

And we wanted to enquire if there was any room for a stall.

Alas, we have to make time-limited decisions. We'll have another go next year to what always looks like a splendid event.
 
Hey - Missed Projectile and missed Chomsky.... Anyone know if the big man is talking elsewhere in the UK? Can't seem to find anything on the net about his schedule...

Cheers

So - how's the film festival been going?

It was excellent, especially the films about the Zapatista's health service, The Japanese Anarchist sword fighting film (Lady Snowblood) the weird gay german terrorist porn film, the roundtable discussion on community organising with people from Glasgow Praxis, HSG, LCAP, and the IWCA and getting to have a proper chat with Dave Douglas.

And of course the people, the venue, and the geordies.:cool:

Really sorry if somehow you fell through the mail, its always a hectic affair most people work full time in the collecti\/e, and we always organise more than we can chew off many apologies.
 
mr Jolly can i have my shit back now pls?

what use have you for a razor and after shave 'you curly headed fuckstick'? :D

Its alright. I know where you work. I've got my crowbar :D
 
Must have been widescreen format/viewed side on. ;) Enough to make Amy Winehouse look healthy...
 
Did a quick writeup here

Sounds terrific, sorry I didn't make it this year (been twice before, and both times they were excellent) but I had tickets for the Scottish FA Cup Final. Assuming Queen of the South go another 89 years until their next FA Cup Final appearance I hope to make it to the next one (so I trust the recuperative curry worked).
