Hey there Dear Listener, here's Ramakant, the young man photographed in this post:
at the Opening of the show on Thursday night.
He's got a wonderfully expressive face. Why isn't anyone talking to him?
I wish I had gone over and said hello.
You can handle the art at this show.
Hmmm....some nice photos.
This guy came to the Opening to get some free booze. He was only inside for about 30 seconds. But it's OK cause he's got MAGIC HAIR.
Here's Grainne, one of the folks from Interface. It's a nice photo of her and I would've taken more but she was worried that the camera would steal her soul.
I wish I knew what was on this woman's mind.
I end on this photo. No comment is necessary.
All in all I enjoyed the Opening and would have stayed longer but I had to deal with a Crisis as detailed in this weekend's upcoming Podcast. If you're in the area I recommend a visit to the show. All the details you need to attend are in this post.
OMG! Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone . . . Holy Crap, I love Guinness!! WHich reminds me . . . Jett, what are the kids calling "Irish Car Bombs" in Northern Ireland and Ireland?

Maybe the local kids can't afford a pinty and two shots! Stick to a bottle of Buckfast or Cider instead.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_car_bomb = Irish car bomb cocktail is made from Guinness, Baileys Irish Cream, and Jameson Irish whiskey.

May I just ask, what exactly is that a photo of in the 5th shot?
Looks like a slinky wrapped around a pot-plant.

Am not sure - have just looked at my original photo which is much higher resolution - it appears to be some sort of Saint in a Globe ...I will speak to the folks involved and get back to you.
Or, if you ever come over to Belfast drop by the gallery and have a look.
