Friends

The SCOOP would like to thank every artist, musician, promoter, photographer, journalist, sponsor and patron that have supported us along the way. Each and every one of you will always be a friend of the SCOOP!

We also need to thank certain people or companies that have donated 'gifts in kind' to the SCOOP and our projects or have simply gone out of their way for us.





First and foremost, here's to Zonja Bailey -Web Designer & Developer extraordinaire for designing this here very website. I think you'll all agree she did a great job. You can contact her @ zonjacleary@gmail.com







Thanks a million to Siobhan, Elaine and Dave @ The Pod for donating 2 VIP tickets for the Electric Picnic for our raffle at our Love SCOOP Hate Racsim gig on the 20th of August, 2010.






A thousand thanks to Trevor, Eoghan, John, Daz and the rest of the gang @ Bodytonic for all their help with SCOOP Saturday and for their participation with the  Youth DJ workshop and studio. Bodytonic are the brain child behind the Bernard Shaw and the Twisted Pepper venues and are a driving force in the world dance music scene.

The Beatyard is a monthly music and arts fair that Bodytonic run in the Twisted Pepper. They run workshops and talks and are giving digital artists the platform to experiment and create. They also ask for donations of equipment for the studio and workshop and so far have managed to persuade a lot of kind people to part with turn-tables, mixers, samplers and tons of records for the studio and workshops. Thanks again guys xxx

The AZ ensure that the most vulnerable children in the developing world receive the same health care and education as any child in the developed world.

At present they are trying to build a state of the art HIV Clinic for children in Uganda and need all the help they can get.

Like the SCOOP, they also have a habit of throwing kick ass events and fundraisers so keep an eye out for them and try and get out and meet them.








Here's to Lewis and all the staff in Pygmalion on South William St for letting us use and abuse their lovely bar for a whole week for our first Art Auction & Exhibition.

Thanks to Graeme @
projectedimage.com for giving us a 50% discount on our gobo.

They specialise in the design and manufacture of the worlds most technically advanced gobos. A gobo is basically a glass or metal stencil that is specially made with a design of your choice. You then insert it into a projector so it can be projected and blown up on any surface, even the front of an entire building. Cheers Graeme!
