The channel Ten documentary City Fringe that we participated in about a year ago is about to air this Sunday 25th October, 2009 at 2pm.

It is about Punk, Goth, Rock and Metal, decades old now reinvented and still popular. City Fringe discovers why people gravitate to certain music or styles, political views or social scenes & the unwritten codes determining how a person achieves and maintains acceptance.

So, if you are home and just hanging out, check out subcultures around Australia.  Including the Krump scene in Sydney.

Elyard Street will come alive on Sunday October 24th with Narellan Rhythms 2009. We will transform Elyard Street into a community space for all ages. A space where you can build a drum, Krump, learn how to play it, do some Tai Chi, visit a refugee camp, learn how to belly dance and more.

The event aims to bring together our many geographically and culturally diverse communities via performances, music and artistic workshops and roving performances. The event will be held between the Narellan Library and Narellan Town Centre, with Elyard Street being closed for the day to enable these two important community spaces to unite in a day of celebration.
