Edinburgh Festival vs Fringe

My wife has just told me to shut up and get off my hobby horse, but i can't, im bent out of shape and need to offload.

Im currently watching stv news. And it never explicitly stated, but you don't really need to have a brain the size of a planet to work it out, that the festival in Edinburgh has two parts, The Edinburgh Festival (tm) and The Fringe. The report was very thorough a bit of history and run through of what to expect. Spoke to representitives of The Edinburgh Festival (tm) and representatives of The Fringe.

AND YET. The wee daft wifey broadcasting live from Edinburgh continually referred to The Fringe, The Fringe, The Fringe like she was down with the kids and unleashing some well known but locally guarded cultural secret. She spoke about that well loved Fringe event the Edinburgh Military Tatoo and all i could do was roar at her vacancy. Every Time she said the word Fringe she looked at the camera with some sort of smug, i know the lingo, am i not cool sort of way.

No you are not cool misses newswummin, you have made the same mistake so many hideously uninformed twats have in the past.

The Edinburgh Festival was outragously expensive and events so exclusive that the ordinary working man was priced out of attending. Low level or undiscovered talent could not get a billing but decided to turn up anyway. They would perform for an affordable cost and capitalise on the audience and publicity which the Edinburgh Festival brought with it. The Fringe is a typically and thoroughly scottish, thumb of the nose at the establishment and has not only prevailed but has went from strength to strength. There have been years where i went to Edinburgh and attended Fringe Comedians, and had a fantastic time and went no where near a Festival event.

The festival atmosphere contains both The Edinburgh Festival (tm) and The Fringe and it bugs the life out of me when the media ignores that fact and the hillariously scottish reasons why that is. It would be like the media stating that Glasgow city council are responsible for the traffic cone on wellingtons head outside the GOMA.

The Greatest thing about scottish culture, is our sustained efforts to undermine the establishments efforts to fetishise scottish culture, and overtime the subterfuge becomes the culture. Its Hillarious, Its Scottish and its perfect. Grade 2 list the traffic cone, and make it clear the Edinburgh Festival is the establishment, The Fringe is the joyous subterfuge by the scottish wo
