WEEKEND DOOR POLICY-
Due both to the amount of punx hanging around outside the Grosvenor during gigs
and the general blagger situation inside, we've decided that the price for door
entry is £5 ALL NIGHT LONG. This means that the price does not go down
depending on how many bands have played & there is definately no free entry
for people too cheap to support their scene (and various sound social causes)
when the last band plays. There will be someone on the door all night. Dont'
call us door nazis, don't be offended on the night, but the gig is £5
and don't come if you don't want to pay that. Feel free to have fun on the side
of the bar (serving drinks!) that is free to mingle in, but you won't be allowed
into the gig room if you haven't paid.
ScumFest exist for 2 reasons=
To support great social causes against misjustice & so we as a scene can
see some great bands that we might not be able to see otherwise...
If you are not attending to support
and participate in those two things, then there's no reason for you to come
along.
PEACE & ANARCHY!
As always- ScumFest is 100% DIY & Not-for-Profit
and none of the collective members make money from the organising of the events.
This is completely volunteer, unpaid and for the love of punk! Bands get their
expenses paid, PA people get paid, expenses get covered & then all the rest
of the money will be split between the benefit causes listed above.
PEOPLE NOT PROFIT!

This gig was a good night. Lots of punks and metalheads co-mingled and watched a night of long guitar solos and churning distorted madness. Thanks to all the bands who played, John and the staff of the Grosvenor as always & everyone who helped out. We made £168 at the door and here is a breakdown of where all the money went:
| £80 | the two touring bands from Slovenia and the U.S.A |
| £10 | Deathrace who drove some of the equipment to the venue |
| £5 | other use of petrol for moving equipment |
| £30 | the house P.A. & sound guy |
| £20 | food and drink for the bands |
| £23 | remaining to be used to print up more fliers for ScumFest and to send them to the bands who are playing!! |
