Thank you to everyone who donated and brought items from our charity stall ,an amazing  £500 was raised and donated to Alsager's Animals in Need Charity

Chris Longman's new music adventure , the former lead singer with Metropolis will be gracing the stage with Chasing the Dark 

Well the Craft well and truly lifted off . What a weekend it was, I'm really lost for words ( again). Just to say a big thank you to everyone who came and made it so special and for your continued support throughout this difficult period of time. It could not have happened without the support of the amazing Sonic Rock Crew - ROLL CALL Amadeus PA Ammo, Elliot , Rayne, Kaden, Conner ,Dee, John & Jen, Dave Hill , Jim Beerman, Rob, Tay, Mel, Neil Sue, Tash, Callum, Salutation MCC Steve Naz & Co , James (food Caterer) Mark & James and everyone at Stoke Prior. Fleur, Muz, Janet, Steve (stalls) and finally all the tremendous bands for the wonderful live music so many highlights throughout the weekend.

Apologies for the lack of vegetarian options the caterer pulled out late on the Thursday, thank you to James who did manage to put some last minute options on. On the down side we did have a couple of tents entered during the Sat night with money taken from one, We hope this is a local outside opportunist and not one of our festival family. Stoke Prior are checking CCTV to see if they entered through the car park, its something we need to work on & to be aware of in the future. 

ONBOARD THE CRAFT SAFETY ADVISORIES

1. Please take a lateral flow test before undertaking your journey to the event

2. If you feel unwell with any covid related symptoms please stay at home and take a LF test

3. Sanitiser stations will be located at key areas - entering the arena , stage area and toilets .

4. We are working on a one way system for the bar area for purchasing drinks to restrict congestion

5. For people who are worried or feel at risk we are planning a socially distanced seating area towards

the back of the arena .

6. For people who are worried about personal space or being hugged etc we have introduced 

an additional red wristband so people are aware of your wishes.

7. Again we will have the large open marquee outside for people to sit socialise and listen to the band

8. masks indoors are optional but recommended

Thank you

All attendees of SRS 2021 and ONBOARD THE CRAFT

To help protect each other it would be great if everyone could take a lateral flow test before arrival. Self test kits are available from https://www.gov.uk/order-coronavirus-rapid-lateral-flow..., they arrive within 48hrs you get a pack of 7) It's quick and easy will help protect the more vulnerable amongst us.

For once I'm really stuck for words. Currently so exhausted and emotional, it's been over 2 weeks of hectic planning to get SRS 2021 up and running after the government announced the extension of restrictions. There are so many people to thank firstly Sharon who took on a lot of the organising, the Amadeus Sonic Rock PA crew, John, Jen and Simon for the lighting, Mark ,James and all at Stoke Prior, Tash and the security, Salutation MCC for manning the gates, all the fantastic bands. Jim Beerman , Michael and Peta Laws (video) , Grizzly ,Dave Hill (drums) , James Reid , Neil Soloman , Susan Tucker , Rob, Ian Tay, Melissa , James caterer for feeding us all , all the superb volunteers who worked the bar serving drinks and finally to all who came to make this such a special Sonic family reunion after over 18 months of lock down., We had to work within the restrictions and I thank you all to adhering to them. I apologize if I’ve left anyone out. I now need to recharge batteries before planning Onboard the Craft .You’re all stars xxx

Hello Sonic Rockers

We are experiencing unprecedented times

As stated on our web site we have been closely watching the developments of the Covid 19 pandemic. However after over 6 weeks of lock down and the likelihood that venues will be the last to open, it is not possible for Sonic Rock Solstice 2020 to go ahead safely. The health and safety of our crew, bands and ticket holders is paramount and therefore unfortunately we have no option but to cancel this years event.

Sonic Rock will of course be back in 2021.

This is a first for us as this would have been our 18th anniversary and we are all gutted, many thanks for keeping the sonic faith and for all your continued support over the years you are all stars x
