So that title kinda reveals the mood of the day. The town's been thronged and it's just taxi after taxi flying by our venue at the mo. We had another sell-out today, and that was at the venue's new, higher capacity of 51 seats. People just love Ben in that chuffin' penguin suit!
We got our second review today, from a website called All The Festivals.com. You can find it here. It's a bit of an odd one as they seemed more interested in Matt giving out cushions than much of the rest of it and they only gave us 3 stars, even though they seemed to really enjoy it, and even said, "If you are looking for a pleasurable way to commence your festival experience then Betrayal of Penguins is ideal." Ah well. We'll have one from The List coming soon hopefully.
The show's building a great buzz here and people keep trying to steal our t-shirts which are, in fairness, quite spiffing. Also some great laughs along the way.
My second group of visitors left this evening so I reckon it's sleep time. The weather took a bit of a vicious turn yesterday and I'm still recovering a bit from it all and I think everyone needs a good sleep. Plan is to have a bit of a team meal this evening to slap ourselves on the back for a great first week (and a bit).
We finally caught 'Shut Up, Play' today which was amazing and was more than worth the £1 I paid for it. We also got to see The Body Tights Man Show doing a slot on the Royal Mile today which was so cool. I can't really explain what it was, but it was definitely memorable.
This is a short one but there'll be much more blogging soon. Short message is: Show's going well, houses full, happy days!
