Going Down - Live Music - Saturday 24th June 06 - Foghorn Sound System at the Urban Artz Festival By Benjamin Woodling Photographs by Barry Thompson, Focal Image
|
|
Seemingly beamed down from a parallel planet of sound, the enigmatic Foghorn Collective deliver
an afternoon of house music, deep and progressive and trancey and trippy, to the good people of East Hull.
Lee is scattering beats into the sunshine when I arrive. His set has an energised party vibe.
Next door a younger crew have established their own dance tent

This year saw Hull's first ever Mela festival held at Pearson Park. A Mela is a traditional festival which originates from India. A welcome event (especially as there was no Grassroots festival this year), it brought together and celebrated the diverse communities of Hull.

Going Down - Ella Street Festival Saturday 9th July 2005 by Jane Foster
|
|
As a resident of Ella Street I was pleased as punch to hear that this year we would be
holding our very own festival, open to everyone.
A group of residents had got together and organised this - well done to them all.
About a week ago the banner and bright bunting went up, and the street held its
breath waiting for this very special event...

Going Down - Cycling into Poverty History Monday 27th June 2005 By Martin Deane
|
|
"Don't tell the other towns, but Hull was the best reception we ever got!"
Bright and early, by some measures - ok, 9am - 24 cyclists from Hull gathered by the café and then made their way over the Humber Bridge. The River Humber, she what drains a fifth of the country and puts more freshwater into
the North Sea than any other, looked absolutely

Well, the G8 season seems to have kicked off to a good start this year with Live 8 concerts internationally.
Predictably, the Hyde Park concert gained almost wall to wall coverage on television and in the news,
although media interest in the Make Poverty History march in Edinburgh was somewhat less

Going Down - Make Poverty History Demonstration in Edinburgh 2nd July 2005 by Rich Mills
|
|
Having been a political activist for many years now, when the Make Poverty History
demonstration came around, we just had to do something about it.
The result being that with a lot of work from Martin Deane collecting money in,
we managed to send a hundred people up to Edinburgh for the day.
Along with another hundred or so who made their own way up to Scotland, Hull was well represented.

Going Down - G8 2005 Demonstration in Edinburgh by Mike Rose
|
|
On Saturday 2nd July we joined what turned out to be the biggest political
demonstration in Scottish history. I've been on G8 demos before (Prague 2000 - Genoa 2001)
but this one was the most diverse I have ever witnessed. The response from the churches was stunning.
We had socialists, environmentalists, Christians, students, pensioners, and babies!

Going Down - Make Poverty History March In Edinburgh By Sarah Golightley
|
|
There is nothing I loathe more than the sound of one of those wretched free ring tones on
my mobile twanging away at 5 o'clock in the morning; especially when 5 o' clock is only three
hours after I went to sleep following a night of clubbing at Fuel and accidentally locking
my friends out of their own house.
And then trying to let them in

Going Down - Make Poverty History Demonstration in Edinburgh 2nd July 2005 By Mo
|
|
Martin Deane invited me along with 2 full coach loads of people from Hull to the
Make Poverty History Demonstration in Edinburgh on the 2nd July 2005.
It was an early start, 6am, because we had a long 6 hour trip up to Scotland (and
another 6 hours back which I tried to forget) as we hopped aboard that drizzly morning.
I'd packed my sandwiches, water etc and had a flask of hot coffee prepared for me

Overnight Investigation of the Paranormal with The Spiritual Renaissance Group By Blair Ashworth Photos by Mo
|
|
Insomnia must be a real advantage when you're investigating the paranormal. At least, it would have been if the night at Holmpton had passed slowly - but for me, and for Mo, it was an amazing and unforgettable experience, and I for one intend repeating it as soon as the opportunity next arises.
So, there we were, the car drawing up to the guardhouse of the Holmpton bunker near Withernsea.

I have to break myself from conversation in order to put together my own thoughts of this magical event.
In the background of the room I can hear
