Hidden yodelling talents anyone?  Can you throat-sing and saw at the same time?  Human beatboxes, tap dancers, typists, dentists, stompin' street cleaners, grumpy honkers and noisemakers of the world, WE WANT YOU to quite literally, make some @#%ing noise!

To give you some inspiration, we've uploaded the best video clips from our Noise Tent at Bestival (Britain's fabulous three-day music festival on the Isle of Wight).  Team Zissou, pirates, monkeys, cavemen, and Hendrix himself, it's all there.

Now to add your video to our new YouTube page, just sign up to YouTube (it's free), upload your video and tag it as "power2thepeople".  Then you can add it to our Power to the People video campaign by joining the Make Some Noise group, and clicking on "Add Videos" and then "Add to Group."  For all the details, just click on the arrow below.
