[OccupyComms] Party idea...

[OccupyBrighton-Info]

I've been doing a bit of research into the City of London, that is a job 
in it's self. Anyway while taking many photos up in the city last 
weekend I was asked what I was doing when photographing Gibson Hall, 
which is like the Buckingham Palace of the city. The nice police man 
said "well you can't be too careful" and I was probably watched on CCTV 
for a bit.

Anyway got me thinking that it would be funny if they did the same thing 
at Buckingham Palace...

...Then watching the program on the telly the other night about how the 
South African white minority was really hurt when people started 
disrupting their sports matches.

Well I looked up some of the key events in the city and was wondering if 
maybe we could arrange some party people to help the worshipful members 
of the City of London's celebrate their little bashes maybe with themes 
to highlight how they make their monies.

Each of the City of London's Livery groups have their own yearly bash 
and there are plenty of them.

I'm willing to bet that the March 23rd bash at St Paul's is probably the 
final deadline of when they want the LXS/St Paul's camp gone by ;) If it 
is gone by then might be worth a reunion gig that night. I'm thinking 
mic check/human PA, appropriate songs and fancy dress optional. Maybe 
even give a nod to the media...
