Planet Angel - Live an Ordinary Life in an Extraordinary Way

Name: Lauren Gold

Involved From/ To: 2007 to forever!

Contributions: Events Administrator, Crew and occasional DJ

I started coming to Planet Angel in 2003 when it was at the Arches, and have been coming regularly ever since. I did my degree in Music Industry Management & Live Production, and when asked to write an event plan for my ideal festival, naturally I decided on Planet Angel!! I decided to give Pete a ring to chat about it, which led to me getting an interview to help them with administrative duties.

In May 2007 I began my role as Events Administrator. This meant working with Pete and Angel behind the scenes making sure everything was as it should be before and after the Party. Every day was different, I was creative, accounty and communicating with the crew all the time which I loved. It was great fun, without a doubt the best job I have ever had!!

Sadly I had to leave in search of a full time job once I left university, but they couldn't get rid of me that easily!! I still crew occasionally, and DJ in the Chill Bar when I can. I'm also having a go at the music co-ordinator role soon which i'm looking forward to. I now do most of the Facebook stuff for PA and the best part of my day is chatting to Pete about all things Planet Angel; ideas, strategies, the road ahead. It's such a positive influence on my life, I will definitely be lending my helping hands for a long time to come!!
