Ok, I confess that I should have had this video report up online yesterday, but I was busy being pre-occupied being on TV myself instead.

Such bad timing/co-ordination then led to Dan to write a post about The Devil and Deep Blue Sea, followed immediately by a video post by me, about, er .. oh .. The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea.

Yup … I was out partying on Monday night, which meant that with a martini in one hand, and my video camera in the other I went-a-mingling after the penultimate show to see if I could work out why on earth it involved gingerbread men …

More photos from yesterday’s Reggae Block Dance.

The headliner, Slice International kept the party going despite some early technical difficulties. It was my first block dance, and I enjoyed the music, dancing, and people spotting.

Did you know that the Spoleto poster launch was a little, er … delayed this year?

Those chaps over at Piccolo had their design out a few weeks ago, and the big boys at Spoleto USA normal do theirs at the same time.

Seems there was an orientation issue going on this year.

No - they hadn’t lost their way, it’s just that it appears we’re not having a portrait shaped poster this year. So I hit the Taste of Spoleto launch party Friday evening to figure out what was going on. Oh, and looked back at some of the previous years posters via the ‘magic’ of our green screen studio.
