A GREAT day around Folkestone today, it was the start of the Triennial and there was tonnes to see. Number one activity was hunting down the Tracey Emin's before they got stolen. She'd cast several bronze sculptures of abandoned baby clothes that she'd found in the street (actually had been given, my bad), and then redistributed the sculptures back in the kinds of places she'd found them. So there's one at the train station, a couple in the park by The Bayle, one down by the beach, and so on. As well as this, there are talking rocks along The Leas - big rocks by some of the benches that talk as you approach them, they read out love letters and things sent during the war, great. Also there were PIRATES and many other street entertainers.
Going to put together a Folkestone art map, in the meantime here's (hopefully) where we went today, and (when the pictures are all uploaded) what we saw.

Aha, I knew my new friends The Guardian would have come up with the goods. Ms Emin said to them:
I just hope they don't get vandalised or stolen. The young people of Folkestone should realise that the Triennial is going to bring in people and money which must be a good thing
Stealing one never even occurred to me.
Oh yeah I saw Mark Wallinger on Rendezvous Street today, and someone who used to be in Hollyoaks down at the Harbour (Jambo's girlfriend from right at the beginning, the one who died). It was star studded. I expect all of these people were at the big party at the Harbour that we could see going on yesterday, but mysteriously did not get invited to.

8th July, looks like it might be a warm up type thing, they don't have a big tour on the go. Get tickets here, this will sell out fast!
See you on ebay...
Man I hate the Stereophonics, what am I talking about? And I was one minute too late for the Folkestone Gerald mailout, so I've missed some commission there. If you are reading this in the future and you really want these tickets that I have, make me a good offer for them, or have a look on ebay.
Don't go to many gigs these days, and when I do, it's the Stereophonics. What has happened to me?
UPDATE: SOLD OUT ALREADY! £60 each on ebay make me an offer, and I'll throw in the 10'' vinyl box set of Performance and Cocktails if you're lucky...

Andy Rourke is selling his...
Andy Rourke of The Smiths is selling his on Ebay, so if you were looking for a gift, say for your favourite Smiths-loving website maker bloke, then look no further!
It was bought in 1983, and used on all the Smiths records. He'll even sign it for you, if you come up with the winning bid... bidding currently stands at just over 1700 pounds, though the reserve's not been met yet.
Ebay haven't paid for this editorial, neither have The Smiths.
