Details for this would have been up on Soulvation web site by now but Glenn (Joe Boy) who does the site is unfortunately in hospital and out of action for the moment. He's fed up at being stuck in there and all being well he will be up and about soon.

Have had to go back to Great Western for more rooms so looks like being the busiest one yet.

Hi Neil,

I see the Newquay info's up on the website now and I can use the site. :thumbsup:

Soulvation website's looking good, seeing the pics is getting me excited. :g:

We're really looking forward to this one! First time for me but all reports I've heard are great. Thanks for asking us to play Neil.

We've decided to stay the Sunday too incase we don't get time over the weekend to sample all the local drinking establishments...

Got some of our Spanish brethren flying in with us from Gatwick but 2 of them are flying in to Bristol Friday around 4.30pm & returning sunday eve or afternoon. The only option they have so far is a taxi which is gonna turn out very dear! So if anyone's passing Bristol airport Fri & Sun with a couple of spaces for a lovely young Spanish couple & fancies making a few quid in petrol money I know they'd be very grateful!

Let me know if you might be able to help?

Thanks & look forward to seeing you soon,

All rooms at The Griffin sold out.

Rooms allocated to us at The Great Western almost gone...if you want to take advantage of the £89 package please reserve it asap.

Great support for this, going to be a brilliant Weekender. Let's hope we have the weather to go with the music - good news is that we normally do!

I'm chuffed to bits this weekend is proving so popular, it may be just what is needed after the last few months of doom and gloom. biggrin.gif

Want to come - have threatened by death by Mick if I don't but its all money dependant and whether I can buy event tickets closer the time. One thing its assured to be is mental with the look of the folk attending :thumbup::thumbsup:

Very few standard rooms @ Great Western now left.

The deal is 89 for two nights in standard rooms @ Great Western including full Cornish breakfast and weekend pass...but subject to availability and most of the standard twins/doubles have gone.

So if you are thinking of taking advantage of this offer get in touch asap, you will need to pay 50 deposit per person now and the balance by March 28.

Weekend passes are 20 each which includes sessions on Friday evening, Saturday afternoon and evening and Sunday All-Dayer.

Lots of people staying over to take in the Sunday.

Lots of people booking who have not been to Newquay Weekender before so is going to be a good 'un.

Full details/book securely on line via Credit/Debit Cards/Pay Pal - go to www.soulvation.biz

Thanks,

Neil

PS - For our London area visitors, Ryan Air last night offering Stansted to Newquay on Thursday April 16 for a fiver. Return on the Monday for same amount. No taxes or extra charges.

I've got this sorted out, looking forward to it (and the 6 days in Cornwall beforehand)

For reasonably priced accommodation, try these:

www.surflodge.co.uk £8 - £20 a night pp, depending what you book (including breakfast).

www.originalbackpackers.co.uk £10 - £20 pppnight, depending what / when booked.

They don't just have dorms- there are twin rooms / doubles etc. also.

Great news Neil, they should be gone in no time. The buzz on this one seems to be building nicely.

From my point of view its a pleasure to be asked and am really looking forward to playing for one of the most receptive crowds in the country.

Some nice deals there Cat Fish and of course plenty of decent accomodation in Newquay if you don't manage to get into the Great Western.

Mentioned on here before about two of our close friends from Barcelona needing a lift if possible to or from(or both unsure.gif ) Bristol airport.

Have managed to get them a lift back on Sunday thanks to the lovely Hannah & Hackett cabs but am still trying to get them a lift down Friday eve.

They arrive Bristol airport Friday at 3.30pm so could probably be out of the airport by 4pm.

If anyone is gonna be passing remotely near there on their way down that afternoon/eve they would really appreciate a lift & would happily pay someone the petrol money & a little more I'm sure... as a taxi was their next option but that will cost a fortune!

We looked into getting the train but it was such a convoluted nightmare we gave up on that.

There's only two of them by the way,their a couple & very nice! And their staying in The Griffin so you wouldn't have to go out of your way once in Newquay.

So if you got a couple of spaces in your car,van,camper..

want to make a few quid? Help some nice folk out? Or might know a man who can?

Then please do get in touch.

Cheers,

Ady

It isn't ideal Ady but there's a couple of flights from Bristol to Newquay, the flight takes 45 minutes and I think prices are around £29 per person.

Loads of people at Prestatyn say they are coming down to Newquay Weekender for the first time so it's definitely going to be the busiest Newquay yet.

If you are one of the people who has asked about going for the the package of Music Pass/2 nights at The Great Western for 89 pounds but have not booked yet then can you do so asap as there are more people asking about rooms than there are rooms left at Great Western.

If you have booked a Weekend pass. will be sent out today and tomorrow.

Thanks,

Neil

There was a lot of buzz from what I saw on the Saturday at Prestatyn as well. I'm sure it'll continue.

Not long to go now.

One of the features about Newquay is that there's always a couple of records that comeout of leftfield and become big tunes over the weekend - not ultra rare or too obscure, just great records.

Here's my nominations for the next Weekender in the Northern Cellar Bar.

KEY TO MY HAPPINESS - THE MOMENTS (STANG)

SO MUCH TO ME - SHIRLEY LAWSON (ENTERPRISE)

Any suggestions from anyone else?

2.) The Stylistics - It Started Out (Underplayed Dancer from a group more well known for their ballads)
