Dartington plus grafitti

Would Black Lace play Dartington?
He is the Music Man, and he comes from down your way… and he’s been daubing Dartington with what we all think but wouldn’t dream of saying – lest we offend those who could offer us a gig in the illustrious, former grassroots arts establishment.
The Biker Boy (or Cyclist Citizen depending on your view), who goes by the moniker of ‘the Music Man’, has been painting the slogan: “Vapid art from talent free bureaucrats from the vacuous elite,” on the new signage that’s been popping up around the estate.
So popular has the graffiti become that the next management focus group is looking into adopting it as part of the corporate identity for the Dartington Plus brand – the rationale being that it cuts through the confusion over what their core values are.
Alas, we jest - but only about the last bit.
We’re keen to hear from the Music Man - phone call or comment would do. And we’d like to hear what inspires him, and what the rest of you guys think about Dartington. Email info@peoplesrepublicofsouthdevon.co.uk or fill in the comment box below.

well Kevin, I always enjoyed Banksy’s assertion that “ART” has become a very dirty word with lots of negative associations…
