20 : 8 : 08 - A party, a festival and a rig
Greetings CLUDdites! Some news for you...
CRITICAL MASS PSYTRANCE PARTY THIS SATURDAY
Firstly, our mates Critical Mass are running a psy party THIS SATURDAY 23rd at TAFOD in Cardiff, from 9pm-3am though there is an afterparty as well. CLUD's own resident Brother Bear, and our former guest HY-DRA will be spinning some tunes alongside Dr Nitrogen and others so get on down there!

PEACEFUL PROGRESS 3 DAY FESTIVAL NEXT WEEKEND
Secondly, we've made some new friends over at Peaceful Progress who are running a 3-day minifestival over at the Lansdown Hotel and Gardens in Canton next weekend 29th-31st August. Three days of live dub and live bands alongside other craziness, and CLUD is helping out a little behind the scenes. They're all a cool and chilled bunch of people much like you lot, so we reckon it's well worthwhile going!

THE NEW CLUD RIG
Thirdly, CLUD now has access to its own sound system, approaching 8 kilowatts of quality doofage, to ensure super turbo charged stomping power at our future parties. Actually we've had it a while (some of you will have encountered the wall of sound at a house party or two...) but we thought we'd let you know now to show we've not been doing nothing! Also We will be able to hire the system out to other funky party people on occasion so please get in touch if you're ever in need of a bass fix.
THE NEXT CLUD
And finally... the wheels ARE in motion for another CLUD... we promise. It's coming.
14 : 1 : 08 - Artwork by Ashley Stone
Hey, exciting news from one of our mates. Those of you who were at the first Clud might remember Ash and his artwork that was on display there. He's not currently in the U.K. but his new website has just been launched, and you can see his fantastic pieces and buy prints there. Go to www.ashley-stone.co.uk.
16 : 11 : 07 - Important notice, change of closing time
We at Clud are extremely sorry to announce that our party on the 23rd of November will now be going on until 4am rather than 6am. When our venue (Q-Bar) was in the process of opening the owners mistakenly obtained a public entertainments licence from the council which did not allow them to host musical events. This went unnoticed until they were raided by the police last Saturday. For a while it looked like Clud would have to be cancelled, however through a great deal of effort an agreement was reached with the police allowing Q-Bar to obtain a temporary licence for Clud. Part of the conditions of this licence was that the venue would only be allowed to stay open until 4am. We would like to apologise for this disappointment, this has been a massive blow for us as well. We were really looking forward to partying all the way through the night, as the 4am licence was one of the few complaints about previous Clud events. We will offer full refunds to anyone who has already purchased a ticket and cannot attend due to the change in closing time. Please email us at clud@clud.co.uk.
