Yes really - the 5th Boxstock! Quite a feat when you consider what we do is very much still a niche hobby, despite Macca and everyone else jumping on the bandwagon!
This year will see Boxstock going back to its roots. A simple one day event aimed at catching up with freinds, enjoying and playing some homegrown music and sharing a few thoughts and ideas - what could be better than that?
The date: Saturday 26th October 2013
The Venue: The Musician, 42 Crafton Street West, Leicester, LE1 2DE.
The daytime sessions will be free to all, with open mic sessions, trade stands, demos etc and workshops.
The evening gig promises to be a real treat and we already have 3 superb artists booked for your pleasure.
Firstly, after a storming debut at last years Boxstock open mic session, the legend that is VINYLHED,
from Hastings Old Town, we have the twangtastic KING SIZE SLIM, and from the USA (where else?) we bring you multi-instrumentalist JUSTIN JOHNSON - what a line up!
More info to follow.
Hope to see YOU there this year

Excellent. I see Mr Johnson wrote a song just for you too Ben! Looking forward to it. Thanks guys for keeping the event going. Leicester - well it could be worse, could have been Coventry :)
A cunning ploy to get a slot I suspect.... ;)
Sounds Bang on !! Yeah
Hi yall, Boxstock accomodation, I've just booked into the 'Campanile Hotel' less than 10 mins away from 'The Musician'
walking, £29 pn for dble or tw, brekky extra £6. This offer ends on the 31-1-13. Must book on line to get this deal. You
don'thave to pay up front but on arrival they just need your credit card details and you can cancel up to a day before at no cost,
I've booked Fri & Sat in case anything is happening on the Friday if not I'll cancel Friday. For on line booking go to
campanile.com then click on Liecester. I've booked this early so I have a decent bed at a decent price after last years fun and games.
Take care and look after those fingers. 'fingers'
I've booked a room for saturday night only, and will have a spare single bed available for 29 pounds on the night if anyone needs a bed. (-:
Thanks Graham!
Just checked Campanile, offer must have ended early it's now £49ish :(
Nice one Graham , also booked the friday and saturday at The Camponile
Regards
Tony
Great choice graham, also booked for the friday and saturday night. See you there.
Alan.
I still have to ring a bell as I walk the streets. Unclean, unclean! (Probably not the best advert for a weekend in Manchester)
where and when are the tickets available from?
Hmmm - seems my original reply to this has dissapeared? Anyone else had this happen?
Anyway, tickets will be available direct from the venue or through the HGMC website in March. We'll let you know when theyre ready :)
