Just a quick note to apologise for the unexpected downtime earlier today. This was due to a security issue that has now been rectified.

Thank you for your patience.

Any Bands want to be on the radio for free? Many More Radio is developing an internet radio station for Whitby. If anyone wants to be heard, follow the link below. They are hopeing to do a two hour Goth program if they can get enough material: Many More Radio

Simon Hinkler, founding member and lead guitarist from The Mission, will play his first major solo gig at WGW this Halloween as the main support to Wayne Hussey. Simon will be playing songs from his new album Lose the Faith which is available from: www.simonhinkler.com Please note that Simon and Wayne will be playing two separate and totally individual sets. There are hopes of a collaboration during Wayne’s set but no guarantees!!!

Following an ambiguously worded announcement by another promoter, Top Mum Promotions wishes to categorically state that the ‘Battle of the Bands’ taking place in town during the Halloween 2010 Whitby Gothic Weekend is in no way connected to the official weekend. The winner will not receive a slot at the official WGW event.

Please see a copy of the forum post from Jowith info regarding 2011 dates – or rather what she’s doing to try and get these cemented asap and when we can expect to hear the dates announced.

Calling all DJ’s, Clubs & Promoters. We’re compiling a database to help promote you, your events and your talents. Find out more here: Gothic Gig & Event Guide

We currently have three confirmed bands for October 2010 at the Spa Pavilion:

Wayne Hussey (from The Mission)

Manuskript (as part of Manuskript’s Big 20 – featuring special guests)

The Stripper Project (feat Neil Ash & Kyle Whipp ex Children on Stun)

At this time we are unable to confirm the dates for either WGW in 2011. Please keep referring here for the lastest news.

Lost or found anything over WGW? Then please send us an email and we’ll post the details on our new Lost Property page. Thanks to Jackie from Gothic Crafts in Whitby for the idea.

Unfortunatley over the last two days our shop sold out of tickets for Halloween. As we were away for the weekend we didn’t realise (sorry guys). The shop has been restocked this afternoon and as a goodwill gesture we have extended the special offer on tickets until Tuesday the 4th 23:59 GMT.

Just had an email from Kirsty @ The Bring and Buy, saying once again the stall has broken a record in the takings for charity, this time raising £625.20!!
