Pals a genuine friendly question.

Would launching a crowdfunding campaign for my beloved Boundaries Fest be worthwhile?

I'm considering reaching out to those who’ve attended, supported or even watched from afar. It would help shape & sustain its future.
It’s not just a fest, it's a medicine.

Joe Thompson - Sleevenotes from Hey Colossus Joe Thompson - Sleevenotes from Hey Colossus

I've reprinted the book as the publishing company stopped and it was out of print. I did ask for permission

It's exactly the same. All the mistakes are still included. It's sort of the story of the band but it isn't. I can't really say for sure
