Compass Film Festival – 3rd/4th November @ The Watershed Cinema, Bristol
Rhymes Of Resistance – 31st October @ The Kuumba Centre, Bristol
A little off the regular hip hop tip I know, but I wanted to hip people to something else I’ve been involved with of late. My girlfriend Samantha works her arse off year round to organise a film festival which is now in its second year, and this time around I’ve pitched in by helping put together a night entitled ‘Rhymes Of Resistance’. The evening will feature performances from three local spoken word artists as well as an open mic session, so if you’re in the Bristol area tomorrow night come and check it out. The evening takes place at The Kuumba Centrein St. Paul’s, starts at 6pm and ends at 9pm. This will be followed by an after party at Mackies bar around the corner on Cheltenham Road. Beats and rhymes aplenty: it’s ‘Hip Hop Halloween’ people. I’ll be the guy looking stressed/nervous/euphoric depending on how the night goes down, come and say hello if you’re about.
The rest of the festival is taking place at the Watershed Cinema this coming weekend, have a look at the website and see if something tickles your fancy. Hope to see you there.
