I'm Rich.
I was in there last night but it was quite busy so I didn't ask. I will be going along on Thurs so will see if they've got anything free for July. With the football season drawing to a close it will be easier as they normally have the games on on a Sat afternoon. I think its a canny little venue and would easily fit a couple of systems...
Beer is good (Jarrow Brewery, Rivet Catcher, Westoe IPA etc) and reasonably priced. Theres a pizza shop round the corner so we can easily order grub in.
One of these days... I'm going to cut you into little pieces.

For those planning to stay over i would recommend two places to stay. The Altonlea guest house which i am assured is excellent www.altonlea.co.uk or The Marine Hotel www.marinehotel-hartlepool.com both are very clean and serve excellent food Tariffs are on the links. There are B&B's much cheaper, please PM me for details. Some of the B&B's in Seaton cater for contractors so please be cautious as they are very basic. I have researched the better options here. The Schooner is less than a quarter of a mile from both of these establishments and well within walking distance. However, a taxi will cost very little. I would recommend the following 23 23 23 by phoning (yes you guessed it) 01429 323232. Hope this is helpful.I am really pleased to announce that NEBO 6 will take place on Saturday 14th of November 2015. Unfortunately i have had to find a new venue because the previous one has been taken over by a large corporation. The Schooner pub in Seaton Carew has similar facilities though albeit without accommodation. There is plenty of places to stay only a short walk away on the sea front most at very reasonable rates. I will make inquiries and post them later.
I now need to know who is coming and what you are bringing. As ever, please don't feel you need to bring equipment to enjoy the event. You can turn up and enjoy an amazing day listening to some of the best gear on the planet. Come and join in, have a drink and kick back. Listen to some great music and enjoy the day. We get kicked off at 11am right the way through to 11pm and there will be a fully licensed bar, hot food and carvery at reasonable prices. Be great to see you here again or meet you should it be your first visit. Put the date in your diary and please get in touch if you want to know more.

Oh yes, you must bring your edingdales!
In terms of dress code I will be wearing a wetsuit and panama hat in tribute to John Darwin the infamous disappearing canoe fella. I hear Steve is coming as his charming wife Anne.

Fantastic. Looking forward to hearing the Edingdales. Easy on the latex though. There may be a health and safety issue.
