Luleå Kalas!!! ---31.07.08. - 02.08.08.---

Three day festival job on the biggest summer festival in the North Sweden with lots and lots of participants, singers, dj-s, events and activities for almost 24 hours a day. Side by side with other artists like Alcazar, Andrea Johansson, E-type, Lars Winnerbäck, Millencolin, Nordman and otehrs.
Our schedule looked like that:
from 10.00 to 13.00 - open circus school for kids in the park
from 14.00 to 18.00 - improvisation spontaneous shows on the streets
and in the evening about 23.00 - fire show

There was lots of interviews and pictures of us, also interview for the Swedish channel 4 news program. Sadly I didn't have enough time there to collect the papers, but I have found some internet posted interviews and articles.

First article is from http://www.nsd.se/noje/artikel.aspx?ArticleId=3880275
The picture is from www.kalaset.se, Me and Matte are on the pic, it's from one of the mornings in the park with children.
There are also other articles on http://www.kuriren.nu/nyheter/artikel.aspx?articleid=4021415

Couple of pix from there:

1. Matte's hands were so broken from playing drums for many hours non stop.
2. Hiding from the rain under the table, last morning in the park.
3. Erik with my yellow ribbon on the stilts !!!

1. Definitely the poster could be better made...but, oh well...
2. Me and Emmy ready for the evening fire show...
3. Our matching outfits for the show.

That's roughly about how tired we all were there, and that was just the first day .)

In the beginning of the summer we went to the park and put up some of our stuff, like the slack line, did some pois and acrobatics. The head of culture of Umea Fredrik Lindgren joined in with us for a while. Since then Ember had arranged little activities in the park every sunday all summer.

It was lots of fun and we still keep coming back to Vännas with different projects.
