Just saving a space on the site for next year! Was the festival a success? I hope so, and I hope it returns.

Ticketmaster have tickets for this year's festival, hope this link is still valid for '09.

Look here: zoo thousand tickets / zoo9 tickets / z009 tickets!

Look here cheap vip tickets for zoo thousand / zoo8 / z008 / whatever, less than cost price, a lot less in fact! You could get a bargain here...

Speaking of which, I can't decide whether or not to go to Stereophonics next Tuesday, we have messed up a bit in arranging a lie in the following morning so it's not really convenient now. Do you want my stereophonics tickets? Make me an offer.

If you know anyone involved, get them to get in touch with me. I only just found out it had moved from Studio 41 to the UCCA bar.

myspace is no help myspace is awful... is there a facebook group or something I can get listings from? Facebook is awful too though...

Thanks to Folkestone Fringe for contributing, please submit your listings here or add your event diret to the calendar here... or email fg@folkestonegerald.com and I'll do the hard work for you.

Cheers!

Don't forget the art works are still on display, at least until September. The launch weekend events may be over, but everything's still there for you to see and enjoy.

See my brief review of the day with pictures and map.

assura group has a metronome page, looks like they own other medical type facilities so this backs up the story of it being bought by a health care trust.

Just found a PJ Harvey gig at the Metronome, and another where she almost played at Bottoms. But it was cancelled.

Still looking for more Folkestone gig histor, if you can contribute any please do...

Can find everything on here apart from the bands that are playing in the evening??

Not sure I trust these guys, they do make it sound good, but we did not have a good meal there and I don't have faith in the place.

It's had no positive votes from visitors to this site, anyone visited recently?

Voucher here from menshealth.co.uk.

Free parking in some overflow car park or other if you have three people in your card it says here. Also a shuttlebus will be taking you to and from Westenhanger and Ashford stations, I hope that's free but I really don't know.

I should be going to this really shouldn't I, everyone at work is. If we didn't have a birthday bash in London right in the (Saturday night) middle of it I think I would.

Thanks to kentonline.co.uk. Get your tickets here, or remember there might be bargains on ebay

Slight repost from the blog, but didn't we look nice on The Culture Show last night?

An aside, Vic Reeves said on the show last night that he lived in Folkestone for two years, in a flat overlooking the sea. Some misspeaking there I think, I believe he lived in the huge house opposite our flat on Earls Avenue. He would know better than I, but can you back up my beliefs with FACT?

See last night's Culture Show on BBC iPlayer.

You can get in free to ZooThousand and other festivals if you work as a volunteer... festivalvolunteer.co.uk for more details. Let me know how you get on.

If you don't want to you can buy tickets here, still some left. Seen lots of special offers for tickets locally, so there's a chance of other people being given free tickets I think, so well worth a look on here for tickets being sold at less than face value...
