Simon Bates interview on Youth takeover.

Nathaniel; What are your views on the Youth Takeover and do you think it will be an overall success? Simon; Great Idea, came from a group of young people that The Junction work with. Hopefully develop new audiences and getting more people involved in The Junction. The day is planned with big Artists. Young people see it as a young persons event because it has been organised by young people. Nathaniel; If the Youth Takeover is a success, do you think it will encourage regular workshops and events? Simon; It's the whole plan, working with a small amount of young people and hope to make it bigger. Maybe use it to recruit enough young people to run a weekend event next year with enough funding. Nathaniel; You mentioned having bands playing in the evening, how many bands are playing and do you not think having bands play.. It might spoil the theme of the event? Simon; Wanted to put an event where all young people can takeover the junction no matter what their Genre. And being the best value for money. Nathaniel; Do you think the Youth Takeover will encourage more venues to do the same? Simon; Hopes that other venues will be inspired by the Youth Takeover and could do something where Young people Takeover more than one place, i.e take over the CITY!
My views on the Interview today, I think me and Nathaneil received some key information from simon today that will help finish the Article. Also I feel that the answers go into depth, therefore we can have a whole page dedicated to youth takeover which will attract lots of young people to attend.
