In May 1998,
Bill Drummond made soup for a rabble of people in a house
off Botanic Ave, Belfast. In January 2003 he made soup for
a bunch of people in a house in Ewart Rd, Nottingham.
In June 2003, he took a map of the British Isles and drew
a line across it, so that it cut through Belfast and Nottingham
and called it The Soup Line. He then decided to make it known
that anybody living on this line was welcome to invite him
to their home to make soup for their family and close friends.
The Soup Line passes through Rosapenna, Carrigen and Inch
Burnfoot in Donegall and Dungiven, Maghera, Belfast, Comber
and Portavogie in Northern Ireland.
Between 30 April and 6 May 2004 he will be based in Belfast
as part of the Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival, available
every evening to travel to one home in each of the above listed
towns.
He brings all his own ingredients and utensils, you provide
the liquid refreshments and welcome.
If asked why? Bill Drummond is likely to answer, ‘Because
it is a friendly thing to do.’
