Welcome...After months of slogging… weeks of haggling… and what seems like a lifetime of changing line-ups Solent Stage are proud to announce our scheduled for Glade 2009.
The creation of this stage cements a long-term relationship between Southampton Solent University and Glade Festival. Over the years students from the Uni have worked hard behind the scenes on filming, creating the programme and helping with the marketing... among many other things.
This year however, we're in it up to our necks… literally! Why? Because we love Glade and what it represents! And because we're proud to have students who understand the Glade ethos and can just fit right in and get on with the jobs at hand, with skill, energy and a level of professionalism that belies their student status.
Our students love it too… that's why this year's festival finds students from Solent producing the programme, filming the Glade Stage, working on specially commissioned documentaries, producing economic and ecological impact surveys, marketing and promoting the event to the UK's student body, taking photos and even providing street theatre and comedy performances.
And then there's the Solent Stage… student DJs, producers and bands rub shoulders with acclaimed producers, DJs and bands on a line up programmed by students. All on a stage that's being crewed, managed, filmed, sound engineered, photographed, and VJ'd by current students, decorated and designed by ex-students and enjoyed by EVERYONE!
No wonder they say that this is the best work experience in the world!
Don't be fooled by the student word - this stage promises to rock the Glade site as hard as any of the well-known names and underground bangers. Just look at the line-up!
Let's 'ave it! As an ex-raver turned lecturer might have said back in the day.
