Eclectic arts+entertainment events in Leicester

About Me



WILDCARD
Music - Film - Art - Drama - Games - Etc
One off events in Leicester, bringing together talents of all genres and styles in an ambitious smorgasbord of joy. Oh, and did I mention you PAY WHAT YOU WANT for entry? So come and give it a shot, we're sure you'll like it enough to pay on your own terms. We do not accept cheques, IOUS or sexual favours. Not that it's ever happened *sigh*.

STATUS: BILL PAYIN' SUCKER
So thats officially the end of indirectly-university supported events. Time to start earning some proper grit, which currently means working any till-monkey, flight case pushing crap that comes my way. And on the optimistic side, it means I may start running this thing in a slightly more business-like fashion; which means more events and greatness hopefully. Many schemes building up, got to do something with them or my head go a'splode. Do you have schemes as well? I would like to hear from you. Like now! Or soon enough I'll be dead with no great achievements to my name! And if I'm going out like a punk, then I'll make damn sure I'll take some of you down too.
Come on, Leicester can do better. We should be the ones who do it.
Much love

ARE YOU FEELING GUILTY?
Recent studies have shown that people who forget to donate to Wildcard events feel very guilty for enjoying themselves for free. This guilt can lead to mental breakdown, catastrophic butt failure, ear herpes and can cause you to believe that modern capitalist society is founded on the blood of the proletariat and militant revolution is the only way to throw off the shackles of the landowning bourgeoise!. Don't take that risk, donate right here right now, through the virtual tip-jar that is PAYPAL!

My Interests

Unique brand of events in Leicester. Living in the middle of art and entertainment, highbrow and lowbrow, cerebral and instinctive.

I'd like to meet:

Artists, musicians, bands, writers, promoters, record labels, film makers, sculpters, side-projects, graffiti writers, actors, revolutionaries, comedians, editors, buskers, activists, jewellers, designers, producers, scientists, rappers, poets, tree-huggers
Enthusiastic people who are genuinely in it for the love, regardless of what they may claim.
