Recommended Posts

Whilst the Hipster room is running FRi SAT and the sunday dayer. instead of it being shut saturday afters we have decided to open it up for a Motown session

regards

Rob

Yes Rob will have the confirmation for you regarding the dedicated Motown DJs we discussed on this the other day.(also see earlier comments on this thread)

To recap-the Hipster Lounge will be 100% Hitsville sounds on a Saturday afternoon over a 4 hours session-we are also running the Bring a box Record Fair / swap meet-in aid of Bluebell Wood- on the balcony area during the Saturday afternoon-which is just outside the doors of this room.

And all this for £20 !!! We must be mad !laugh.giflaugh.giflaugh.giflaugh.gif

Tickets at Sweetsoul this week

PM if you want any

Dave Rastrick on

as this weeks guest

Dougs been re-stocked, It seems like the South shore is pretty full at the moment-Unless you are actually up there in person and can walk around the place for vacancies you would be better trying North Shore accommodation which is still within 10 minuets walk of The Spa or a couple of Mins in a Taxi.

Remember we had 2,000 in town last year-Most had first choice on re-booking their digs as they left (as we did)

I am still bumping into people with Accommodation and no event tickets-=-GET THEM PURCHASED-looks like we are now on the count down to SELLING OUT-we estimate in the region of ONLY 500 tickets will now be available after all commitments are filled by the weekend (or less).

AS BEFORE WE WILL NOT "OVER SELL THIS EVENT" PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Get your tickets bought !!!

Will be at the Skegness weekender this Friday & Saturday with tickets for sale but be quick as I'm down to my last 8 & know there ain't many left.

Will be hanging round in the downstairs room most of the time if you need to find me but don't leave it too late or you'll run the risk of missing out on one of the highlights of the summer.

Guest hurryup

Good news for anyone who hasn't booked their accomodation yet.

I spoke to the Bay View Hotel around tea-time today. They have 3 or 4 double/twin rooms available at £45 p.p.p.n. - just a stone throw from the Spa.

Better still and even nearer - Yorkies Guest House - directly opposite the Spa (literally a cock-stride away) have 4 or 5 double/twin rooms at £24.50 p.p.p.n. (even cheaper if it's a rear facing room).

Save us a couple of tickets please Rob :D

Had someone ask for a cheap B&B for a single room near the Spa--anybody know anywhere or in your B&Bs with spare room ?

Last weekend before BIG ticket round up again sellers-for the end of the month-we now estimate there are in the region of just 400 tickets available to sell

Still getting phone calls from people with accommodation booked and no tickets for the event-(We sold 6 this week !)

Our ticket sellers have instructions to sell to the people with the money and not to "hold" tickets for ANYONE.

Its 9 weeks to the event-last year we sold 700 tickets in the last 10 weeks-if you look at that rate there are going to be a lot of disappointed people.

If you want to come PLEASE GET YOUR TICKETS PURCHASED-and again IF YOU CAME LAST YEAR AND BOOKED YOUR ACCOMMODATION IN ADVANCE-PLEASE GET YOUR TICKETS PURCHASED--WE WILL NOT OVERSELL THIS EVENT!

The feedback for this years event is incrediblethumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif

THIS EVENT IS ONLY SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE OF THE GREAT SOUL CROWD THAT ATTENDS-WE PROVIDE THE VENUE AND THE DJs-

YOU PROVIDE THE ATMOSPHERE AND THE *CRAIC !

*Craic or crack is a term for fun, entertainment, and enjoyable conversation, particularly prominent in Ireland.[1][2] It is often used with the definite article - the craic.[1] The word has an unusual history; the form craic was borrowed into Irish from the English crack in the mid-20th century, and the Irish spelling was then reborrowed into English.[1] Under either spelling, the crack/craic has great cultural currency and significance in Ireland.[3]

see you there:yes:

Due to a massive rush on ticket sales during the last 5 days--we have been contacted by Bridlington Spa Box Office to say they SOLD OUT of their allocation of Weekender tickets this weekend.

WE WILL BE RESTOCKING THE CREDIT CARD HOTLINE WITH JUST 50 TICKETS IN THE MORNING.

We have been contacting ticket agents today to find out how many are still in their hands

so NOT VERY MANY by the look of things !

We have also added the final tickets to our website ordering service via paypal at www.bridsoul.com

We shall be re-calling in unsold / unpaid for tickets from agents very soon to meet demand from the on-line ordering services!

When all agents have checked back in we will publish the list on soul-source

Any agents reading this can you let us have your ticket remaining details ASAP pleasethumbsup.gif

Remember we are now matching people to remaining tickets-Brid Box Office now restocked with 50 tickets--first come first served !!!!

Doug Hall has tickets at Sweet Soul

Plan so far is this-we expect most ticket sellers to be sold out before end of May-we shall be calling in all unsold tickets after the Bank Holiday and remaining tickets-if any-- will only be available via our website-and the Spa Box Office.

If you have asked sellers to hold tickets for you PLEASE SORT IT OUT NOW we have issued instructions to sellers to start selling off all tickets on a cash in hand basis we estimate there are only between 60-70 tickets "floating" at the momentohmy.gif

IF YOU WANT TO COME __GET IT SORTED__WE ARE GETTING NEAR TO CAPACITY__WE DO NOT "OVER SELL" THE VENUE-JUST 8 WEEKS TO GO!thumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif

ECSCSC

PS Plenty of B&Bs available-do a reverse search-and start ringing up from the bottom of the list you get from Google

its like this most people re-booked their hotels close to the Spa when leaving last year-so you are very unlikely to book a room on the doorstep of the Spa at very short notice-we have at least 1950 people with tickets PLUS DJs Organisers and guests staying as well.! Brid has nearly 6,000 beds available ! get looking thumbsup.gif

We still have a couple of slots for advertisers , PM me for details and rates although the last call out brought a healthy response-so if you have a club, event, selling records/ merchandise etc and want to hit 2,000+ people directly please get in touch!

THIS EVENT IS GOING TO SELL OUT VERY SOON-YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !

ALSO due to numbers attending this year we shall be no longer able to sell "spare tickets" on your behalf Karen did a great job last year when your mates didn't turn up -however this year we will not be doing it due to extra work we have elsewhere during the weekender!

So if Joe and Fred cant make it, then its up to them to pay for their tickets and up to them to sell them on if they can not attend!thumbsup.gif Due to spiralling admin costs ALL TICKET SALES ARE NOW FINAL!

THIS YEARS EVENT WILL BE THE BIGGEST YET ! EVERYONE'S COMING TONS OF STUFF GOING TO BE HAPPENING AS WELL TO MAKE IT EXTRA SPECIALthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gifthumbsup.gif ALL EVENT ROOMS -5- ARE IN DEDICATED SOUND PROOF ROOMS NO NOISE "LEAKAGE" TO SPOIL YOUR ENJOYMENTthumbsup.gif
