It's terrible luck to call it by its proper name!

Do you need some music? Far as I know the only pop music based on the Scottish play is 'Birnam', the first cut on the 'Mo-di' album by the "group' (basically Martin Swan) Mouth Music.

I always thought it was the coolest cut on the album. Maybe a bit mod sounding for your doings, but maybe not.

And those copyrights--be careful. Bill's great-great-great-great-great grandson Hammond Shakespeare is trooping through the Englsh-speaking world attempting to profit on the new extension of the copyright to half a millenium.

The direction is more "Robert Altman" a work forever in process than "Polanski"!

Silence cynics, it's definitely a goer

-got the trees presently in Galway, need to get them to Ennis by Friday. call if you can help with transport on that one.

-if up for carrying a tree - each one has the name of an Iraqi child, how old they were when massacred and what U.S. method of killing (cluster bomb, missile, tank fire etc) was used.........it would be good if you could wear green or brown and make contact asap

-if you wanna be a witch I guess dress in black for a sense of uniformity or whatever you think is more convincing.

-we will meet in Ennis pretty (but not ridiculiously) early Saturday morning, time & place will be set soon and posted or available from texting the above mobile

- we are working on transporting the cast & props from Ennis gathering place Saturday morning to a reasonable distance from castle/police lines. If you can help with transport from Ennis Saturday morning make contact asap.

-strategy is very mellow...we advance to the castle/police lines. Pull up at a safe distance at do some street theatre.

-If someone is up for making a MacBush/MacBeth banner give us a call on the phone numbers above.
I think that's a wrap!

Geraldine has started work on the banner. (If you are familiar with it) Geraldine did the Catholic Worker disarmament/John the Baptist/Shannon banner. She does great work...
The banner will read...

MACBUSH "Here’s the smell of the blood still. All theperfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand."

Visual themes may include Bush, Castle, Shannon, Blood

The link below will show you Galway photos of the trees representing Iraqi children & families massacred by the U.S. military, the ages of children and how they were massacred.

This link will show you a list of Iraqi dead, ages, date, location and manner of death

*Unlike the Vietnam War, the U.S. military has made little attempt to keep a body count in Iraq.

There Will Be a "PFC BANQUO CANNONFODDER" representing U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq. The ghost of PFC Banquo will confront the Vietnam War dodger George W MacBush & his sidekick Ahern.

Many of the U.S. dead had passed through Shannon Airport where citizens sold them duty free, slapped them on the back as they went to the deaths. We do not know if their body bags are being brought back through Shannon, we only found out recently (Phoenix) that they were bringing prisoners to the Guantanemo Gulaga through Shannon. We do know the U.S. State (unlike in the Vietnam war) have tried hard to censor any photographs of U.S. military coffins etc.

The link below will give you a list of U.S. military dead. Their are reports that the U.S. military do not officially list U.S. military dead who are not U.S. citizens. So it may not be a complete list.
