St.Anns Holding Hands Unity Event. July 16th.

I hosted the St.Anns Holding Hands Unity event on Saturday July 16th. It was the first time I had taken part in this event which has been going on for approx 7yrs in the heart of St.Anns, inside and out side of the Chase Community Centre on Robin Hood Chase.

I turned up at 12pm expecting the stage and p.a system to be ready as my 1st acts were due on stage at 1pm. The Sound had not been set up and it was 1.40pm by the time I was able to announce the opening act which was the local church choir. We had to finish the stage show by 6pm and due to this setback with the p.a there were three acts who were unable to perform because there was just no time to fit them in. Once one thing is running late it becomes like a domino effect for everything else.
I held it together was I was not used working in such unprofessional conditions. There is more I could go into but lets just say I will not be taking part in this event again.

Highlight was bumping into the Mayor of Nottingham for the 3rd time this year.

My friends who took time out to come out and perform for the St.Anns community were in fine form. Big love to MuHa, Stuck in 2nd, Saysay, Janine Nicole, Spiit Starh, Ney Corte Real plus Ras Goodies & Ngoma Band alongside the community musicians.
