Aside from the drummer/musician jokes, Super 8 Band are a great pro outfit and need a drummer. Give them a shout if you fit the bill or know someone that does.

Later this year we will be saying goodbye to our drummer, Nathan. He's going on an amazing adventure with his family and we wish him all the best. This means we are looking for a to provide the heartbeat of our band. If you, or you know someone who might be interested, we would love to hear from you!

We’ve been playing together for many years and we really are a band of brothers trying to make great music and memorable events.

PM us for an initial chat if you're interested.

This project was great fun to work on especially manoeuvring the 10 metre long 4 metre high and 2.5 metre wide trailer along the country lanes and footpaths to get it there! As ever, the JHAV team were a pleasure to work with and always produce spectacular events.

Always happy to support this fantastic, local event.

The team behind it work really hard to find the best ales, ciders and food offerings but also curating a great musical line up. All together a brilliant community event raising loads of cash for some worthy charities. Keep up the good work Duloe Ale and Cider Festival

Look what we have done together! Amazing news. :)
Please see the message below from the Chair of the Ale & Cider Committee, John Massey.

Dear all,
As you know our 17th Ale & Cider Festival was held on 7th September, and the first time ever it rained on us. And it really rained! Instead of sunshades, people brought gazebos for shelter, wore their wellies, and made sure the wet conditions didn’t spoil their fun. And I am delighted to say they definitely made the most of it and had a great time.

With your help, this year, we have been able to donate £9,600 to our chosen charities and local groups, which as am sure you agree is an incredible amount of money to raise in one day. Obviously that isn’t taking in to account the hours and months put in by the Committee, but they are delighted with the outcome from all their efforts. I am very proud of the commitment shown by the Committee and as always, amazed by the demand for tickets and by the generosity of our sponsors and supporters. You really do make a huge difference to what we can achieve year on year, so I want to say a huge heartfelt thank you!

The charities we have donated to are the Looe RNLI, the Mustard Tree and the Primrose Foundation, both of which are based in Derriford Hospital. The Look Good Feel Better and Spinal Muscular Atrophy charities, and to Duloe Recreation Ground, the Duloe Community Trust Fund and the Duloe village Christmas hampers. We also donated to the Liskeard and Looe Foodbank and on the day people brought items with them, and we collected a brilliant 161kg of food and other items. It is a real privilege to be able to financially contribute towards the work of these charities and groups and help them to deliver the vital services they provide for people living in South East Cornwall and beyond.

The festival has grown over the years and from the start the profits have gone to benefit others. The first event was held in November 2006 and raised £500. The following year it doubled to £1000, and from then the amount has steadily grown year on year. The Ale & Cider Festival originally set out to raise funds to help towards the costs of building the skatepark. Now installed and used daily by young and old, it shows what can be done if we come together and have a good time! We as a Committee often choose charities that are, or have, directly supported people within the parish of Duloe as a way of thanking them for their work, alongside other suggestions. Please do let me know if you have any charities or groups that are personal favourites as we are always keen to have more to put up for consideration.

Thank you once again for all your generosity and support, and on behalf of the Ale & Cider Committee I wish you all a very Happy Christmas and peaceful New Year.

Best wishes,
John

If you can support Stiltskin Creative Arts & Theatre Co. Then that would be great. Always a big shame when a big top gets storm damaged but when it wipes out the main earner for the year that is a disaster. Still aching from stacking pallets and rolling up the tilts.

**Crowdfunder Update**

Since our devastating news regarding the destruction of our beautiful Big Top 🎪 during storm Darragh🌪 we have had a number of requests to launch a Crowdfunding page so that our lovely community can donate and support Stiltskin at the Soapbox.

For those who are wondering why we did not remove the Big Top before the storm...There simply was not enough time to take it down. To do so, we would have had to remove all of the infrastructure that took two weeks to build, then the Big Top would have taken over two days to take down. It held for most of the day until a rip appeared, which grew and took off the roof. The structure remained stable. Sometimes, things are not as simple as they may seem...

For those who wish to support us, then it is greatly appreciated... maybe we will get to replace our Big Top, or at least rebuild after the loss of at least £30,000 this festive season. Any donations will be transformed into a bit of Stiltskin magic at the Soapbox Childrens Theatre.

Another great festival not far from Plymouth.

🎄Christmas has come early!🎄
That’s right - Your Main Stage line-up for The Godney Gathering 2025 is here! 🎁

This is just the tip of the Christmas tree and we’re kicking things off with the acts who will be taking over the Main Stage on Friday, 18th and Saturday, 19th July, but there are plenty more artists and stages still to be revealed 🌟

TheEnemy burst onto the UK music scene in 2007 with their debut album 'We'll Live and Die in These Towns', reaching #1 in the UK Albums Chart featuring anthemic hits like 'Away From Here', 'Had Enough' and 'It's Not OK'. Tom, Andy and Liam are renowned for their high-energy live shows, sharing the stage with iconic acts like Kasabian and Manic Street Preachers and headlining sold-out tours. After a hiatus, they returned in 2022 with a sold-out UK reunion tour, followed by leaving their mark on the festival scene in 2023. The band is currently writing and recording their fifth studio album, continuing to build on their celebrated legacy 🎸

The View has been performing in sold-out arenas across the UK, supporting Liam Gallagher on his 30 Years Celebration of Definitely Maybe, and receiving strong reviews for their live shows. With more than 50.5 million streams on Spotify for their super catchy song 'Same Jeans', the band continues to thrill fans with favourite hits from their debut album, 'Hats Off to the Buskers' which debuted at #1, achieved Platinum status, and earned a Mercury Prize nomination. The album included chart-topping songs like 'Wasted Little DJ's' and 'Superstar Tradesman'. Their most recent album 'Exorcism of Youth' made its way to the top 10, just last year 🎵

Dreadzone are a true festival favourite - their infectious energy and genre-defying sound means this iconic band has been captivating audiences for more than 3 decades with a seamless blend of dub, reggae, electronica, and roots music. From chart-topping tracks like 'Little Britain' and 'Captain Dread' to fan favourite albums like 'Second Light', their music is recognised across the festival scene. After releasing their ninth official studio album, 'Nine', in October - Dreadzone will be solidifying themselves on line-ups across the country in 2025 and we're very glad to be one of their stops on a busy year ahead 🎤

Having been a Bass Player in the distant past, I found this amusing.

Always a fantastic and free festival. We will be there with our XXL.

This will be good. A nicely curated, accessible festival with camping as well as plenty of on site catering. The site is minutes from the M5 so really not far from Bristol and Plymouth.
