Fuse 07 Queens Birthday Weekend

Wednesday, May 09, 2007 by Sam

Its exciting to be a part of the team organising "Fuse" a new event coming to replace CTC. So what you got??? Auditions for the event are still being held around the place. Check out the Fuse website to work out where to audition. Here is the promo dvd made by Mr Galloway, and click here if you want to stick it on your blog or website to help spread the word.



I was the emcee for the Wellington Heats, and I was completely and utterly bown away yet again with how gifted young people are. The dancing, songs, art, and the creativity crammed into each expression. A highlight on Saturday would have to be "kreafly" a crazy emo screamo metal band who were followed by "straight blessed" a bunch of gangsta (quite literally) new Christians performing their original rap tracks for the first time ever live, And it was all world class. Followed by someone doing some ballet. Very very cool mix of acts. And that isnt even mentioning the art, and photography and the soap box, b boy and b girls comps etc etc.

Go NZ Young people for being the most creative crew in the world...

Best Question I have being asked in a long time

Thursday, October 05, 2006 by Sam

I was speaking at Live camp in the weekend, and got asked a question that I thought captured something incredibly beautiful. It was having a chat to a young guy called Thomas on Saturday afternoon, and he asked me "What songs make you dance?" It floored me. I get so caught up with silly thoughts and questions that really dont matter that much, and yet this question nails it... "What songs make you dance, what brings you joy, what brings a smile to your face, what stokes you out?" You could ask that in any culture, to any age, and it would get a response. And so this young kid, who because of his mental condition, age and social skills is probably at the bottom of the rung for many, becomes the catalyst for a great kingdom moment by asking the wonderful question, "What songs make you dance?" So, post a comment letting me know what songs make you dance... for me, depressingly or wonderfully its anything by Bon Jovi, Queen, Supergroove, the B52s, shesh, what an old fart...
