Backstage and "backstage" related stuff, including venues, pubbing, gigs and blog posts about backstage. If you have something to offer concerning backstage that is not mentioned here, please chip in. Particularly if you have anything to offer concerning local pubs or other places, home brew, ale, or appley goodness. Cheers.

This is my personal site, so if you search here for pubs or other places it will only return backstage pubs / venues I have been to or plan to go to. Fingers crossed it will return those anyway...If you are interested in a more broader search please try backstage on 'Folkestone Gerald, where I list national and even international places...

As it turns out there are no pubbing / venues concerning backstage anyway. Is there something I have missed? Please let me know!
