Austin proved once again that weird is the best way to be. If you were there, there is a good chance that you are here. Eeyore's Birthday Party 2007 in beautiful Pease Park in beautiful Central West Austin.
Ever hear of Winnie the Pooh children's books, later turned into cartoons? There was an episode where Eeyore was sad, because nobody came to his birthday party, then they all showed up. University of Texas students started this back in 63(?) and it has become the most awesome party on the planet for one day of the year. George is wise to film it. I am native to Austin and haven't missed Eeyore's Birthday Party in 13 years and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Looks like there are a lot of people having a good time. BTW who is Eeyore? Is Eeyore's Birthday Party something unique in Texas? It's just something I've never heard of.
Very cool! Have you met George?

I noticed in his film, that he almost shot footage of the part of the main drum circle where I was at most of the day

Very Cool. By the way, I was there filming the Going Bats film. You can check out a sneak peak by typing "Going Bats" in YouTube or going to my page
