Rain, Rain, Go away

Just back from the Green Man festival in Wales.  There was a lot of rain, but it didn’t dampen our spirits.  We managed to perform Mayfly despite the weather.  From inside the tent, while performing the show, you always hear the comments of the people watching outside.  At the Big Chill, someone asked our steward if there were robots inside the tent (there aren’t, it’s 2 performers), the steward happened to be my husband, and said "No, its my wife in there."  The audience member persisted incredulously, "Is your wife an android?"  Too many drugs for that one I think…  This time we heard someone describing the tent as looking like a Lava Lamp, and a lot of laughing at the shadow of me trying to swat a fly.
