*******Hellfire 2007********
Okay, well some of you may have heard that the next falmouth/gwithian meet will probably be the last.
"OH GOOD GOD NO!!!!!" I hear you cry, well never fear young hoppers, we have something bigger and better planned for next year.... Hellfire!!!
Moving along the same theme as PLAY, but in lovely sunny(*we hope*) Cornwall.
We want to know what you want at the festival.
Call it market research if you will!
We have lots of ideas ourselves so far, but if there's something you've seen somewhere else at a festival and would like it at Hellfire
...say so here!
Likewise if there is something that has caused you a bad experience at another festival, circus skills or otherwise,and it would put you off doing it agian...LET US KNOW!!!
One other issue is cost. Obviously we want to charge you lovely yummy people as little as possible for this beautiful summer experience, so bear in mind all things cost money!
I'm also interested as to wether people would be prepared to pay more on entry, for more facilities????
Okay, we have a few things that we will have there anyway:
Big top-yay!
Catering facilities
On site Toilet and Shower Blocks
Live Music/DJ's
Fire area
Workshop areas
Chill out tent
Camping
Parking
Performances
Beer Tent
Family area
....and basically all the usual sort of stuff.
Theres lots of other ideas we have, but we're waiting to see how realistically viable they are first.
So people....thoughts/ideas please!
Go on....you know you want to!

I'd like to see me on the DJ line-up
And if you are going to have musicians / dj's - give them an alloted time slot relative to the style that they are playing. (if you want I can help with that - by trade I have been a club promoter / dj far longer than I've been anything else)
I'm also availabe to sound / light engineer and can have a chat with my friends who own rigs / biodiesel gennys if its of any help to you
definitely look at installing something to provide shade should the weather be 'too good'. The heat almost ruined glade last weekend. A couple of large gazeebo's (3*12m) or something similar will do.

this is something im definatly up for coming, but my suggestion is that, because fal was a non-ticket non-festy based event, the only major cost us northeners had was the petrol or train which has been anywhere between 30 to 85 squids, but that was ok since there were no other major costs down there. what worries me about this, is having to spend as much on travel AND a ticket
whats the estimate ticket costs likely to be? i really would love to come to hellfire but im worried if it might cost me more than i can afford...

Like i've said, ticket costs will be kept to an absolute minimum.
We need to work out exactly how much they need to be in order for us not to end up massively out of pocket.
We will have a website up as soon as we can, and dates/ costs etc as soon as we know them.
This thread is just to get an idea of things people would like to see/have at it, in order for us to give you as much as we can for as low a cost possible.
So don't worry for now, its still over a year away!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?
