This page only gets responded to every few months, but I could run a poll on the home page if you're interested... Who should play Folkestone?

Who I would like to come to Folkestone (again in some cases):

The Cure (ha!)

The Magic Numbers

Super Furry Animals

David Devant and his Spirit Wife

Belle and Sebastian

Suede (maybe they'll get back together soon)

This is not for Zoo Thousand / ZOO9 is it? Think it might be an effort to get people to trust that again. Guessing it's for the Quarter House, the new theatre on Tontine Street, am I right? If you get a good band to play the opening night, I want in.

This is my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of excitement when we first moved to Folkestone sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a few years before that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. The site was a lot more dynamic with a calendar of events and voting for favourite venues and stuff, and I hear it was a useful reference for those who were thinking of moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was about to become. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from a fake paper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do get in touch if you have something to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
