The fourth instalment of our yearly event centred around Halloween celebrating the scariest things to come out of the greatest City in the Universe - Sleepy Hollow (book, film, series, cartoon etc.), Black Sabbath (inventors of heavy metal), Led Zeppelin (Plant and Bonham are Brummies, b*llocks to Stourbridge and Redditch) and the Spencer Davies Group (tenuous and not terribly scary but look out for the clever pun). As ever 'it keeps on raining' every time we do this one and, if Birmingham had a levee (still dunno what one is apart from the destination of choice for a Chevy driver), it certainly would be about to break) and if that makes no sense then just Keep On Running.
As ever a sketchcrawl taking in key, or not so key, locations associated with all of the above.
Start: 18:33 The Peace Gardens, Holloway Head, Birmingham B15 1LZ (under the church portico); the site backs onto Washington Street named after Washington Irving who wrote Sleepy Hollow whilst living in Birmingham*.
Half Way: 19:26 The Craven Arms, 47 Upper Gough Street, Birmingham B1 1JL (the location of a mystery cat who some say is the reincarnation of John Bonham**).
Finish: 21:04 The Duke of Wellington Hotel & Bar, 72 Bristol Street, Birmingham B5 7AH (via Irving Street named after Irving***).
Everyone welcome, bring something to sketch with (like a quill pen dipped in human blood) and sketch on (like some creepy paper****) and don't forget, this one day of the year viridian is welcomed (because it is the colour of Satan).
* completely true
**not true at all (although there is a cat, no idea who he's the reincarnation of).
***yes, that's true too
