Thanks, I feel sufficiently stupid now..... It did occur to me that there were alot of really groovy performers there who had come a realy long way just to perform in Adelaide... for an intelligent person I do a really good impression of a dimwit!!!
Pretty cool how they got the AD thing in Adelaide though - made it seem authentic - Im sure thats what confused me *tab trying to shovel her way out of a really stupid and dumb-looking hole*

Hee I try to be omnipresent, but fail so miserably I am normally on between 9-5 my time (UK)(work sometimes gets in the way) and sort of hang around the Peer Review, the question pages and wander in general I Subbed this Entry, so I keep a special eye on it But it seems an honest mistake to make, I see no hole Until later......

The link to the WOMAD site is also there in my article about the festival referred to by Crescent. I'd also love some feedback about my article which everyone keeps advising me is not suitable to be an 'approved' entry because it is in the first person!!! Personally I am very pleased with it but it is not acceptable to the higher ups in charge!

Having read your article I can see why it would have been reject as it's writen entirely in the first person. You now have to choose to do one of a few things; leave the article as it is, an unedited entry in the guide; rewrite the article turing it into something else - an article about WOMAD itself, rather than just your views and reminices of a great festival; cut it into parts and submit it to the post. I'm sure that it would be a good piece for that.
That's my two pence worth for you
Oh and why I asked for the link in this article is that it does mention WOMAD in the article (but no mention of the Real World Records
)
