Milano calling 14 dec 2013

First they turned off the lights and the first "potrebbe succedere che..." came up. it said you might make a noise like an urban jungle animal. I didm't join in...

There was talk, then a man with a guitar shouted a song about vino.

there was a street poet and he did two pieces, harder to understand.

Marco talked a bit about counter culture in london in the sixties, playing there's something in the air.
The next acitivity was to touch the hands of everyone you meet... i did this.

Then there was a beatles song and The idea was about a form of protesting where you stop, sit down and your world changes, then the screen said what if you lay down next to some one you don't know and told them about the moment you stopped and changed the thythm of your life... I don't have an answer for this one

Another beatles song i think, then the screen started referring to a tickle killer and we were invited to tickle each other.

After a break, the band started Orinonauts - brilliant. The message came up on screen potrebbe succedere che... ballate senza sccarpe piano piano senza far rumore. everyone in the group got up so i did too. The rest of the group had been on an acting workshop where they had practiced dancing against the rhythm all day. So it took me a while but I got good at it in the end.

While the band was on two girls did an oil painting beside the stage.

After a while, they announced the body painting. Two girls and guy took their tops off and were painted, first by their friends, then later by the public (a bit)

The band went on until after one, i think, and stopped at one point because the police were coming. But then the police went away and they just kept the door closed.

Unbelievable. I hadn't felt like that since "we demand a quirkafleeg".
