Its not even the Scooter Rally yet, and TheKing Lud is pulling another set of all nighters..

23 Jul

Tonight, Get On The Lazer Train with DJ’s Kaf-tan, Kris B and Sparrow spinning vinyl…..in the feelgood funk, disco and phat house stylee from 10pm ’til 4am.

Tommorrow, Massive Music Night with Blacksmith returning home to play for the first time in 6 years, featuring The Dead Perrys and DJ Nipsy flipping the vinyl ’til 4am.

Blacksmith:the songs and members may have changed many times, but baggages skills and Lances antics remain as ever. celebrating the recording of their unreleased debut album and looking forward to recording and releasing their first single this autumn, as well as new management, they thought it was about time they returned home to remind everyone what theyve been missing. Lan…ce has promised to be on his best behaviour, which normally means him getting fucked and starting a riot, but we will see how it goes.

also supported by popular local indie rockers ‘the dead perrys’ and followed by DJ Nipsy, promises to be an entertaining night for all.

Thanks to Adam at The Isle of Wight Beacon for this months editorial and Real Ale and Music Festival advert.. as follows..

The following editorial has been featured in July’s Ryde, The Bay and East Wight editions:

King Lud & Roadside Inn

As a response to the renewed success of The King Lud, Ryde Esplanade, the owners Sam and Suzy are maximising the reputation of the Real Ale and Music and reawakening The Roadside Inn. Both pubs boast a great location but The
Roadside has the added benefits of a lovely big beer garden, parking and Bed and Breakfast.
On Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th July The Roadside Inn, Nettlestone is hosting its very own Real Ale and Music Festival featuring music from local talent from midday til midnight, and twenty real ales and ciders to be enjoyed in the garden with a scrumptious BBQ. Special deal taxi fares available all weekend from The King Lud. Supported by Goddards, Yates, Wightwash, and in aid of Help for Heroes.

We Love Wightwash, we really appreciate the support guys..especially from Tim :)

Wightwash News and Gossip Page Four

Sam and Suzy Mackay are busy preparing for
their real ale and music festival on the 3rd
and 4th July at the Roadside Inn, Nettlestone.
There will be 20 real ales and ciders
and music from Damian Paul and his
ten piece Blues Brothers Band, Protection
Racket and many others – more details on
www.wightwash.org.uk
Suzy tells us that in their other pub, the King
Lud they have had to put on another hand
pump to cope with demand and the locals
have developed a taste for real cider. Pickle
parlours have been introduced to both pubs
(this bears more investigation).

Tim has in addition to our standard adverts, written a lovely piece on the Events page of the Wightwash website to promote our Real Ale and Music Festival – Thanks Tim!
