After being unable to be in Nottingham last year, I'm very pleased to confirm that the very enjoyable and popular After Gig Gathering returns to Spanky Van Dykes on December 10th.
I've booked the upstairs room and it's back to business as usual! More details in due course.
-
Great news!
-
Excellent I'm planning on being there again.
-
Phew !!
-
See You all there had a blast last Year
-
Vaggers, this time we can relax, enjoy, and leave it to the master :)
-
I was thinking of not going to Nottingham this year but this has made it a must go-to event!
Deafening loud, nowhere to sit down, takes ages to get a drink at the bar, everything rather sweaty-crushy... yup, my perfect night out! ;)
Isn't there some band or other playing nearby? ;D
-
Oh and they sell irn bru lol
-

-

My Good Friend... I have no intention of sitting back! I shall be on the floor 'ol Mon!!!
I just hope LCG can deliver what the aftershow of that great gig deserved last year and as I understand I delivered. As a stand in by trade & pleasure I know He can. If circumstances arise & My services are required then as before regardless of personal cost then I'm there. This blessed band We follow rule Our lives & I'm glad that's the case. Love You All xx

You certainly delivered, VB, early technological problems aside (which weren't your fault) it was a damn fine party.
Felt the after-effects for a couple of days afterwards, though... must have had a dodgy beer or something, couldn't POSSIBLY be anything to do with my age or anything like that... :D

Afternoon
There is a 200 capacity in Spanky's. To avoid the problems of 2014, where some people went out for a smoke and then couldn't get back in, there will be 200 wristbands provided by the venue on entry.
I'll be in Spanky's pre gig - not entirely sure exactly what time, but sometime between 4pm and 6pm. Wristbands will be available then too.
The doorstaff will regulate and monitor capacity based on actual attendance - if more room is made because of people leaving, anyone else arriving late without a band but wants to come in should have no problem.
Entry is via the stairs inside of Spanky's, as opposed to the external entrance / stairs.
I've paid a deposit to secure Spanky's which I get back if £1,000 is taken over the UPSTAIRS bar (the downstairs bar does not count).
I know you can do it!!
See you Saturday - looking forward to the gig.
-
Interesting, sir, thanks for the heads up. I'm staying at the Premier Inn just up the road, and Spanky's is on the way to the traditional pre-meet at the Tap, so I'll pop in. Where you gonna be?
Also, I know I'm meeting a few Forum regulars at the Tap, as previously mentioned... you be OK with me picking up a few wristbands just to save them a trip out of their way and guarantee them entry if it gets a bit hectic after the gig? I PROMISE I won't be out front come 11pm, touting them (c'mon ladeez and gents, aftershow tickets, get 'em while they're hot, only a tenner apiece...), honestly!
;)
-
Grab us one if you do MR. Bout time I showed me fizzog
-
Aiming for 4pm onwards.
-
Tried to get in - couldn't get a wrist band 😓
JC - great to meet you at Rock City x
One day I'll meet more of you. Hope you had a great night xxx
-
I was good to have finally meet you Sheena, you missed a fab curry and a big thank you to Lawrence for organising a superb after show, I hope you got your deposit back.
Cheers
jc
-
Should've come for that curry. I ended the night with a dirty kebab. It's not helping my Hanover today, I can tell you 😂
-
Roaring success - hope everyone enjoyed themselves and good of MARSHALL GILL to come up to the DJ booth for a chat and say thanks for putting these do's on.
And yes, I got my deposit back! :)
-
Glad you got your deposit back, LCG. Thanks for doing this again, afraid I left a bit earlier than normal, one of those nights where the spirit was willing but the body let me down, I was aching like heck after the gig (got my first appointment with the osteopath next week to sort out my back problems, hopefully) but plenty of folks seemed to be enjoying themselves!
JC - did see you downstairs from afar before the aftershow, meant to catch up with you later but obviously missed you. Hope you had a good night? Aw, silly question!
Sheena - I guess our paths are meant to cross another time! Unless they did and we didn't know it... :-\
