amp'd uke all day and into the night

16. JUNE 2012

10.00 - 17.00 : 25 Hyndland Street (West End)

19:00 + : 452 Victoria Road (Govanhill)

williwaw fills the Hot Corner of the West End (25 Hyndland Street, the southwest corner of Hyndland and Fordyce, was honest-Abe known as the Hot Corner, as subterranean ovens warmed the pavement back-a-when, and now is home to Unlimited Studios and iota Gallery with six-to-seven unrelenting hours of its merrie din.

later that same day, our comrade makes its way back to its more usual confines, the Go Slow Café (452 Victoria Road, Govanhill), for the ongoing Lights Out! benefit for the South Seeds organisation. The Lights Out! events are nominally an acoustic only affair, but there may be some subtle and not-so-subtle violations that particular evening.

a din for the din-din tonight

Another amp'd uke outing for our comrade wiliwaw at the go slow cafe this thursday - gads! tonight! - beginning 'round eight pm.

despite having just bruised their left - frettin' - hand last night on the cyclommute (patent pending) home, the automatic dinner music for the people should feature some of usual overly long takes on the works of wayne shorter, gil evans, evangelos odysseas papathanassiou and, yes, even williwaw.

the amplified automaton, unleashed!

not having the tried and true camera operator around, our comrade williwaw waits until the ultimate look-ma-no-hands portion of the ever long and longing set to take some evidence of the most recent dabbling in amplified delectation. automatic dinner music, ahoy!

this sort of thing has got the old cobwebbed cogs turning: using an ensemble of unattended 'ukuleles (can anything match the might of the williwaw ensemble? no, nothing can) to create a much automated manner of music. watch this space - no, not this one, this one - for more as it develops and eventually envelops us all.

the hastily rescheduled stylings are go!

last week's loss is this week's gain, behold!

thanks to those who took these snaps at the sonic soak back when in govanhill

more dulcet tones for your delectation

our beloved comrade williwaw will once again be playing dulcet tones for your general gustatory enjoyment next thursday, 11.11.2010, at the go slow café. some pumpkin pie will (possibly) be served.

two signs of sputtering life

first we see our comrade williwaw first battling a motley horde of stools and chairs in the middle of its first and only set in june...

and then we find that loveable scamp williwaw in the usual hunched position battling the rising din at the end of its third and last set in july...

the pace continues, ongoing slowly

spreading more amplified love, our comrade williwaw returns to the comforting confines of the go slow cafe, 452 victoria road, glasgow on the second of july, this very year of two-thousand-and-change. the night will also feature the unveiling - opening, if you will, of new visual works by simon harlow.

a show, a show, a slowly ongoing show

williwaw will be hosting an intimate evening of amp'd uke histrionics, nylon-strung sonic exorcisms and other rollicking sound actions on saturday, the fifth of june, two-thousand-and-a-dime, at the go slow cafe, 452 victoria road, queens park, glasgow.
