Blinking
and just a bit bleary after a whistlestop trip to Bristol for IBT17 and
an overnight drive, I can't quite believe that it's Friday all over
again...
This weekend, tonight Fri 10 Feb, sees the opening of Queer Contact 2017; with Trans Creative and Le Gateau Chocolat's Black (both on Fri 10 + Sat 11 Feb); plus up in Preston there's Glen Neath + David Rosenberg Fiction on Sat 11 Feb at the Media Factory, Preston.
Next week (w/c 13 Feb) in parts Mancunian, Queer Contact keeps up the pace: on 14-16 Feb there's Milk's Joan; plus, there's a real crescendo on Thu 16 Feb with David Hoyle's Diamond and, of course (the biggie for us) is FK Alexander's (I Could Go On Singing) Over The Rainbow alongside a certain iconic pop art show at the Whitworth (6-9pm).
