[RhythmAgogo] Some Ness Stuff

[Neil Jones]

For those new to Ness, many of your questions can likely be answered by the
First Timer Guide: http://www.nesscreekmusicfestival.com/camping-info. For
those who haven’t been able to pick up a paper program, you can read it in
PDF here:

a suggested packing list and many other things, including the full schedule
of performances and workshops.



*Ness Creek Set List*



1) Samba Reggae*

2) Bhangra**

3) Voodoo

4) Ragga

5) Crazy Monkey

6) Funk***



*Samba Reggae: We will start off-stage, mixed in with the crowd, and
migrate to the stage as we play the intro Ground Break (aka Shit Break)

**Bhangra: We will start with an opening solo by Danish, who will be mic’d
and who will signal us in by playing the hand drum (classic bhangra) part
(as we did it at the Sexual Health Centre fundraiser).

***We will get down and mingle with the crowd, trying to get them to dance,
before reconvening on stage to finish. We will also have a bunch of extra
shakers that can be distributed to members of the crowd who might want to
shake along.



*Ness Workshop Tentative Plans*



Please send in any feedback you have. Here’s what we have so far:



Body percussion – Maori

Vocal percussion – Arabic

Teach them one of our tunes – Samba Reggae?

Jam – create their own distinct parts; co-write a break, if there’s time.
