I ate soup made that KLF man

Yes, it's true. Although Tartu (an Estonian town) isn't situatued on the soup line ( http://www.penkiln-burn.com/jobs/job07.html ) he - Bill Drummond from KLF - was there this Friday night, making soup for everyone. Was a nice event but I have eaten a better tasting soup.

Bill Drummond's Make Soup project
at Prima Vista Literature Festival, Tartu
6 May 2005 at 20:00
Tartu University Old Cafe

Bill Drummond visits Tartu for the Prima Vista literature festival and makes soup to people starting at 20.00 on 6 May at the Tartu University old cafe. The evening is part of his crazy Make Soup project that has taken him and John Hirst already to various public places and people's homes in the UK to make soup to anybody who lives by a line drawn across the British Isles. Come and see the former KLF member talk about Make Soup and taste some soup!

Well, he burnt all his money didn't he (or am I having a senior moment?) so the next move would be the soup kitchens

no senior moment Alice
Drummond is a mad bastard - FACT!

Sounds like me may have burnt the soup as well.

'me' or 'he' AS?

KLF - How to burn a million quid Anyone remember seeing that on the telly, they had this great idea of burning a million, videoing it, transfering the video footage to film and then selling frames of film for a quid a pop!

Ah, but wasn't it a batch of notes that the Old Lady of Threadneedle Street was going to dispose of anyway? Bet they never included any footage of the security geezers making sure the KLF didn't <ahem> recycle it in other ways

Ah - that would make more sense! I thought it was their own hard-earned cash (yes that naive

)

Mrs. Snowey · 14 May 2005, 21:58

Nah, they wouldn't have earned that much in the first place

"Doctorin' the Footage" anyone?

Not all his money, only a million

By the way, could any good mod correct the typo in the title of the topic

Andrew S · 15 May 2005, 02:33

Both come to think of it. I've burnt soup on most of the few occasions I've gone to the effort of making it

Even after following Eva's recipe for pumpkin soup, the result was so bad I had to flush the whole lot down the lavvy. If I wasn't such a bad chef, I'd blame the recipe

pikkrong · 15 May 2005, 18:58

Just one thought crossed my mind - maybe Eldritch is also involved in some cooking-affair most of the time? But then - what kind of soup could he make?

lazarus corporation · 15 May 2005, 19:00

I emailed Mr Drummond asking him to come and make me some soup sometime last year (when I was living in Nottingham and so very definitely on his soup line). He never replied.

I do have a 5mm square section of his photograph "A Smell of Money Underground" (clicky, though, mounted on authentification certificate signed by Drummond.

Liar!!!

He promised to come back to Estonia the next year and (if he will come and not lie again) I'll ask about it.

in my email from Feb 28th 2004 I wrote:Hi

I'd like some soup. To be accurate, I'd like some vegan soup. No animal products, thank you.

Will you come to Nottingham and make me some?

Cheers

Drummond is a Jock, therefore all soup contains animal bits

ah yes - that would explain his reticence to take up my challenge.

WHOOPS!

Just realised... I meant "Last RONG to Trancentral"...

Now I shall berate myself over my poor grasp of Estonian...
