Firebird Festival As the sunlight wanes and we approach the shortest day of the year, this festive evening in Phoenixville, PA will spark light as it brings the community together for stories, music, artistic expression, and celebration. On Saturday, Dec. 13, 2008 The Phoenix will burst into flame once again at the 5th Annual Firebird Festival. Starting at 4 PM Phoenixville's Downtown District will be transformed into a performance art venue with storytellers, choruses, dancers and musicians; all performing and relating stories of Winter and of the Phoenix – the mythical bird and namesake of Phoenixville.

After reading the comment and returning to browse the site, I'm impressed by the scale and enthusiastic participation of these dedicated fellow burners near Cape Town. This got me to thinking about how fun it would be to make a world tour of the various burns there are now. We've seen the documentaries on Burning Man in Nevada, how about a comprehensive look at the variations of the event in other venues and countries!?]]> http://cliffypop.com/2008/11/20/afrika-burns-double-take-and-regional-burn-world-tour/feed/ 0 The Great Handcar Regatta http://cliffypop.com/2008/05/12/the-great-handcar-regatta/ http://cliffypop.com/2008/05/12/the-great-handcar-regatta/#comments Mon, 12 May 2008 19:02:04 +0000 stache http://cliffypop.com/2008/05/12/the-great-handcar-regatta/ Erasmus P.

One advantage is a deeper commitment to performance stages and live music acts. Looks mighty fun!
