I am mighty excited about the Cuba Street Carnival this Saturday. Many music acts! Random chaos everywhere! People not cars on the city streets!
Curious how this follows so closely on from the Rugby Sevens tournament, which is the other Wellington ‘Carnival’. The notion of a combination of the two fascinates me; I can’t decide if they’d cancel each other out or kick off an exponential positive feedback loop.
I am in the midst of novel-writing so I shall not linger. Instead, I direct you all to WellUrban‘s post about it, which is full of goodness and much better-informed than me.
By the by, I mentioned seeing Strike perform earlier in the week. During the interview bit they said they would play during the Carnival, but I can’t find any evidence of this on the Carnival website. Anyone know the truth of the matter? They were incredible and it would be great to see them again.
