Jack Stevenson like a migrating bird is coming back soon.
Here is an article on him and one other in that unique breed of
rare film collectors.
Cinema’s like The Cube need a rare film collector or two in their little black book.

Totterdown Arts Trail

Suzuki Boom Boom
Hello chums, I’m trying hard to catch up with Cube related shenanigans so will be posting hard this next fortnight. Meanwhile let us go back in time to last November………… tinci vinci test1 trali vali
You may remember that last year The Cube headed South of the River to the popular Totterdown arts trail AKA Frontroom. This year we also had some Cube related events associated with Frontroo eto mi ne test2 proxodili m.
Cube fave and volunteer Rasha Shaheen played underneath The Bocabar at Paintworks as did my beat combo SUZUKI BOOM BOOM.
SBB also features fellow Cube supremo Barry Parsons hence me blogging it (oh and the shameless self publicity)
Also in the band, Mrs Megan Paradise herself and Proffessor Kris Griffin< eto nam test3 ne zadavali /a>.
Anyhow heres a couple of clips of the gig



Plenty more on Youtube if you wanna hear more. Theres also some great photos courtesy of Photographer Will Iredale here.
It was great fun and nice to take a piece of Cube related fun out further.
Our thanks to all the Frontroom organisers, especially Marita Lanham and everyone else who came along.

You know you really are Gorgeous, Till next time don’t go changing

Posted on December 11, 2007 by zuleika

Would anyone like to tell me a bedtime story of what happened on this wonderful night?
I missed it all thanks to a cancelled train… waaah!

Perhaps you can tell it and make me feel like I was there…

YES! YOU CAN CAN CAN!

Posted on December 5, 2007 by richie paradise

Mid November saw the Cube Orchestra venture South of the river (kinda, if you know your geography) to Spike Island where we had been invited to play on/with a very interesting piece by Turkish Artist Can Altay. The piece is called Ey Ahali!. “Ey Ahali!” is the typical phrase of the traditional introduction to a public announcement, verbally made by shouting on the streets.
Anyhow you can see Uncle Liam and the gang here and then good old YouTube has two clips.
Uncle Liam of Cube Orchestra fame Ey Ahali! It's The Cube Orchestra!

I enjoyed meeting some new members of the Orchestra as I don’t get down so often these days, venerable types each and every one of them. Look out on the clips for some of these handsome chaps


A few regulars too, Ale on guitar/voice, Richard keys, Liam on Trombone (1st time ever), Mark on sax and me on Handsonic. This was great fun, basically for those too lazy to follow links the stage is the art, it has speakers in which you plug into. A small but appreciative audience seemed to enjoy themselves, as did the Orchestra who celebrated with beer and snacks at the Arnolfini afterwards.
Spike Island audience

Our thanks to Can and the Spike Island crew.

Big love, Richie Paradise Captain Richie Paradise

That’s The Spirit

Posted on November 5, 2007 by richie paradise

Hello Chums, apologies for the lack of posting, basically I’m a lazy sod, unlike these plucky fellows
Lovely, lovely volunteers
Upstanding decent fellows every last damn one of them. Come to the Cube and see more of them.
So, Things I have failed to Blog:
The Cube Cabaret/9th Birthday Bash – Reason – ‘I’m editing footage and didn’t take any photos and anyhow didn’t Mr. Hopkinson do a wonderful job?’.
Cabaret/Ladyfest – Reason – ‘Not my finest moment……….’
Cube Orchestra playing to Haxan and The Sea Hawk (starring hottie Errol Flynn) – Reason – ‘Possessed by an evil spirit’.
Skulpture (Cube Orchestra Free Jazz spin off band) at The Junction – Reason – ‘Gagging order by local constabulary’.

One will endeavor to improve ones self,

You’re Money and You don’t even know it, Richie Paradise Richie Paradise
