Day ten in the kilau back garden

It’s a little known fact that workmen, like Gremlins, should be kept dry at all times. It was in the best interest of the city, then, that ours took the day off and stayed out of the rain (we’ve all seen the film). It does mean there was no progress today. Boo.

This could have been disastrous for example!

Fingers crossed for sunnier days!

p.s. Don’t feed workmen after midnight either. You have been warned.

Acoustic night @ kilau

It’s a busy weekend for kilau! As well as the Mindscape exhibition we also have great music lined up for Sunday night!

So here it is:

Sunday 22nd November

Maticarians – Improvised musical pieces inspired by the folk songs of North East Scotland. By their own description they sound like “a river of rowies cascading onto a corrugated iron roof.” Not to be missed!

Les Pelicans – I am very excited to announce the debut of Les Pelicans featuring Teej Kapowski and James D. Rousseau. CHECK THEM OUT!

Music from 8.30pm and entry is free!
