Live on the Waterfront

OVER 6 August and 8 August 2010, on Liverpool’s waterfront, with Liverpool Samba Band and Waterfront Rhythms and Funkmonster 6ix Toys on Friday night, all much appreciated. This was followed by Night time Spectacular by Voala whose airborne acrobats reached 100 feet above the fascinated crowd as they enacted an oriental style drama in a thrilling performance. Also touring the Pier Head were the Granny Charismas, three ‘ladies’ on large motorised shopping trolleys, who entertained their spectators with their antics, and two eccentric ‘ice cream’ vendors. Plodding around the area too was a large Tibetan ‘yak’ from Todmorden, a charming beast!  Saturday was to be devoted to further dramatic dance performances and another daring show by Voala. Sunday was dedicated to dance music including Chinese music and tribute groups including one to Glenn Millar. Life stays lively here in Liverpool.
