"IF YOU HATED THE HOUGHTON WEAVERS - YOU'LL DESPISE PANIKATAK"
Thank you all those who have
expressed deep concern and regret at our recent upheavals your support and kind
words has helped considerably in our resurrection. For those new to
us - Panikatak evolved from the Lakes
School PTA when 'Doctor Birket and the Menopause' sang to raise money for school
funds a dozen or so years
ago. Panikatak soon became a major player on the entertainment scene of South
Lakeland.. We soon recognised that to make any money individually out of an amateur six piece
folk band - with sound gear etc. was unrealistic so most of the concerts we
perform are in aid of local charities. The occasional private booking at
realistic rates and sales of products at concerts helped keep us on the
road. Well over £50,000 has been raised for local good causes during the life of the
group so far.
A high proportion of the material we perform at concerts is home grown, with unforgettable insights into the
medical world as in 'Prozac' and 'Viagra' as well as 'guest' appearances by an
irreverent Scot singing of the 'Road to the Aisles' and a strangely clad
Welshman singing the Welsh National Bog Snorkelling Team Anthem, to say nothing
of the 'dead pets' collection of songs. A lot of this irreverent rubbish is
available on cd and who knows in the future these items may well become
extremely rare and highly prized as collectors items.
