Event Type: General Blogging
Start Date: Tuesdays, recurring weekly
Description: Every Tuesday I offer the “A to Z challenge”, walking step by step through the alphabet.

Last week we had the “tagged j”-challenge, so this week we’ll create a new turn with “k” – I’m sure you’ll also find a photo, a story or a music title tagged with “k”! Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “k”!!! Myself I’ll focus on “Kansas City”:
KANSAS CITY
photo below was taken by David Haggard in Kansas City (click on the photo to enter his galleries on flickr); the music is from my “virtual jam session” project at wikiloops and soundcloud!

hi Debbie,
recently I saw some Kilt men in Germany, I was surprised at first, but then realized: “there must be a soccer match in town vs. a Scottish team”; soon I saw the leader of the fan group jumping up on a table, there he trained his fellows to response to some short shouted slogans…
P.S.:
I have a friend, a Scottish guitarist, Ian McAulay, every time when he plays his electric guitar, it sounds like a gang of bagpipes on their way into space…

next you should visit Brussels, there is a famous little boy doing the same as your dueling urinating Kafka penises. In Brussels you can buy replicas in stone or steel, wood or chocolate.

Inspired by your global music making, Frizz, my ‘K’ is a plug for the North Cambridge Family Opera who are just about to put on Rain Dance – a very jolly short opera inspired by one of my short stories. There are audio links to a preview performance and worth a listen:http://wp.me/pKVAM-AG

I’m to shy for kite-flying, Colline. I cautiously like to sit in my garden playing my new guitar, flying sometimes are only my fingers. Just found a video, featuring the same guitar, I bought today, a VINTAGE AV3, jazz semi acoustic version, British designers, working together with US technicians and producers:

hi Sue, i like your Intros so much! “K could be for Kaysersberg, Krems, Klagenfurt, Konstanz, Klopeinersee, Kloster Weltenburg… for Kronstadt…” – well Konstanz is real nice, Köln too (Cologne), Kansas City: O.K. but your Kronstadt gave me a remembrance to Königsberg, at the Baltic Sea, former German and philosopher’s KANT hometown, nowadays the name of the city for sure has changed…

Ah yes, the old Prussian town changed to Kalingrad (not a feature of my travels!)

hi Francine,
I like our INTRO fragment: “The diversity of people and cultures. The violence killing of our children. The protest in our streets for change. The homeless. The abandoned houses in our cities. And the end of life in a funeral’s procession…” = a wonderful concept for a blog!

my favorite verses:

Krispin crossed the Kalahari
searching for a drink
a dream of gin and ginger
was all that he could think
+
sandy grains in worn out boots
blistering hours did multiply
nights cold as Kiev he huddled
under the star-strewn sky
+
for silk Kimono and Kaftan cool
he longed to drop his Khakis
a dusty heap next to the door
+
miserable fortune set in motion
by a nasty camel’s Kick
this unexpected walkabout was nothing
but a desert trick
