Hello Hello – I’m happy to say that since Covid restrictions have been lifted and a proposed knee operation was not deemed necessary, Mr Boom is now able to accept public engagements.
So far the following gigs have been booked in summer 2022:-
July 29th and 30th. Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival.
12 noon in the Venus Flytrap
August 12th and 13th. Shrewsbury Flower Show.
I hope you’ll manage along to one of these events
Meanwhile – you can view Mr Boom’s online appearence, during September 2021, at the Orkney International Science Festival 2021. The link will lead you to a notice saying “This event has passed” . . . but fear not . . . just be sure to scroll down to the You Tube links for Singalong with Mr Boom and Mr Boom’s Polyhedral Workshop, which will give young geometricians cluses as to the workings of the Space Ship Imagination.
Mr Boom‘s first post Covid restrictions concert happened on Thursday 12th August 2021, at Fringe by the Sea in North Berwick, in the Belhaven Big Top at 10am. To his surprise 366 people turned out to join in the fun.
“A bit of a leap year attendance”, thought Mr Boom.
