In Uncategorized on 3 November, 2011 at 12:02

The Storytelling Festival is on in Amsterdam this weekend and I am going to eat it up like an angry hoover in gravy. Or maybe a gentle swallow in dew. Depends on the stories I suppose. In any case they’re mostly happening at the NDSM.

Saturday
20.00 Ben Hagerty - Gilgamesh
Sunday
