Iris & Rose

[ravic]

Just a heads up. Iris & Rose have announced that they will NOT be at the Sea Devil but will be at the Polish stage near the Falconer's stage.

[Laird Fraser of Lovatt]

well, that's unexpected... 

[ravic]

Yeah, even farther from my booth. In front of the POW to the Polish area is a looong walk.

[eldatari]

anyone know why?

[Zardoz]

I heard about it on their FB page, No explanation as yet though. The change is not on the schedule on the TRF webpage, so who knows who else has been shifted around? 

[ravic]

Is the Polish stage a fully stocked pub like the Sea Devil?

[Queen Bonnie]

 Happy if Iris and Rose move! The Sea Devil is way too smokey for me to sit at for long. I have missed seeing Iris and Rose! Maybe I can catch a few shows if they move! Huzzah!
Not sure where the Polish stage is? I know where the Polish food booth is.

A little newish info;
If you look here; http://www.texrenfest.com/entertainment.html , and hit "Schedule Guide" at the bottom of the page, it opens a new schedule that lists them as playing the "Polish Pub", but it does not look like it's on the map.

I hope the "Polish Pub" is as well stocked as the Sea Devil, my wife will be peeved if she can't drink a Sweet b*tch at the Iris & Rose show!
On the good side, I can see them, Circa Paleo, and Cast in Bronze without humping from one side of the faire to the other! About the only negative I see is that the 'Polish area' is pretty much in what I've always thought of as part of the kids section, wonder how that will work ?

No not really...their regulars have complained for years that the smoke and the noise of the Sea Devil makes it difficult to really enjoy the show. But at least they are coming back which they almost didn't do.

Just goes to show how your milage may vary, The wife and I are pretty 'regular' I&R fans, but we've never thought that about the Sea Devil! But I'm glad the issue didn't have to come to them not playing at all!

The noise was truly godawful at the Sea Devil, to the point where I'd pop in for a song or two & leave (of course, leaving a little something in their basket) because you couldn't hear over the din.  However, the Polish area is in the very back of the grounds (as I recall) which is going to make it really difficult as I have arthritis mobility issues.

[bellevivre]

if it's teh area I'm thinking of, I also wonder what the seating is like- surely they added seats there?

[eldatari]

I hope the sound setup is better.  I can never understand atleast half of what is said.  I hear it but just can't understand what was said.

[ravic]

I know the sound guy. I'll nag him for you.

Thanks!
