Hi everyone,

We’re very pleased to be able to announce that the Official Extreme Voice 'Return to Eden' Voxgate will take place in Hammersmith on Friday 24th April 2009, from 4.30 until 7.30pm. We've booked a room that gives EV exclusive private use at a very reputable eatery and bar located approximately 10 minutes walk from the HMV Hammersmith Apollo venue. We are very pleased to now be able to give details of the event.

The room holds approximately 150 people, although we are expecting a large number to want to attend the Voxgate as the first London concert has attracted many people from all over the world. We feel the best way for us to run this event is by making it all ticket, and therefore you will need to be in possession of a valid ticket, and this being presented at the door, to be given entry on the day. Tickets are free, and available on a first come first served basis by e-mailing us at voxgatehammersmith@yahoo.co.uk, with your name, postal address and the number of tickets needed (maximum of 2 per person) in the first instance. Full details of the venue location will be forwarded to those who are sent tickets.

Please do not use any other e-mail addresses usually associated with contacting Extreme Voice about this event. Only mails received at voxgatehammersmith@yahoo.co.uk will be answered in respect of tickets or queries arising.

We are also extremely pleased to announce that Davy, Mike and Sleepy from 'Monument' have agreed to play a small intimate set at the event. Following the rapturous reception at their Oxford gig in February, it is anticipated to be a very special set performed by them and will give everyone an opportunity to see the band up close and in action.

We’re looking forward to a having a wonderful afternoon on April 24th and to seeing many of you there.



Regards,


Cerise, Rob and Paul
Extreme Voice

Wish I could make it. Hope those that do manage to go have a damn good time.

Just sent an e-mail requesting 1 ticket.

Kiddin mate....

Davy

Well the lure of finally seeing the Monument guys perform has made me rethink the voxgate ....so if I'm lucky enough to get a ticket I'll be trying to get an earlier train or at least making a mad dash from Euston to Hammersmith by tube. Just emailed my request through so hopefully.....

Hooray oh thank you! Just emailed our reservation. Please save space for our US contingent! Hooray!!

I'm forever looking out for 2 for 1 offers so it looks like I'm not a nae mates!!!

For all our sakes Snash, just lay off the friggin' beans a week before the Voxgate, or we'll all be dancing with tears in our eyes....I'll get me coat.

I'll help you put yer coat on & open the door. No, no, really, I insist!!!

Thats the spirit.... we want to see as many of the forumers (is that a word? if not it is now!!)

Come on the regs

I would have liked to attend as I will be over here for the Ultravox tour, but it doesnt seem fair for newvox, as he probably can't even make the Ultravox shows now. I hope to still get to the Ultravox gig alone though, and maybe meet a few people still.

Hi Paul,
I've just had the email I sent yesterday returned by Mailer-daemon @ yahoo as 'failed delivery' even though I sent it to the address you gave.....its taken more than a day to be told that it failed so though I've just tried again to email my request through I'm assuming that all the tickets will definitely have gone by now anyway! C'est la vie! I wasn't holding my breath on getting a ticket anyway as demand will have been high so I'm not that disappointed ... just curious as to why I have problems with communications with EV given the time delay I also have with the newsletters! So the problems seem to be with incoming and outgoing...wierd!

As long as I'm at the gig itself that's all that really matters!

Jenny

PS My second attempt to exactly same address has obviously got through as I've just had an auto response. Maybe there was such an overwhelming demand yesterday that the email inbox was too inundated to cope!?

Hi Jen,

Just a quick reply. Your second mail came through to the Voxgate address fine.

The e-mail address we gave out yesterday was created specifically through Yahoo for this event only, and because of some of the problems people seem to have been having with the EV addresses. So, any problems with the Voxgate mail address given are not down to EV I'm afraid. Can't explain what it would be mind, so can't help you any more with what the problem is - sorry.

Regards,


Paul

Thanks Paul....I was just looking at the failure details again...I suspect its a yahoo problem somewhere along the line.

I'm sorry to hear that, Maryann. Please give Newvox my best wishes.

Just emailed requesting 2 tickets, hope I will be sucessful, what a fantastic way to start a great evening.

wish I could be there...
have a lot of fun folks!

Hi Maryanne.

Please pass on my best wishes to newvox. Hope you're ok too hunny.

Me too...... I am down for The Roundhouse gig and I really don't think I can push this one with other half.....

Bump.

but, obtaining ticket or not, may we all hope that this event does not cancel any POST CONCERT event/s, even not so well organized ???? ???!!!! :rolleyes:

No, of course not. We're only organising this for pre-show, but anyone's welcome to organise something for post-show (Steve Weeks has been trying to get an Electric Dreams night together but I'm not sure what's happening with that now. What's the news, Steve?). Either that or we'll stumble to the nearest pub, I'm sure!

The germans are coming! Ok, in fact there's only two of them, me and my wife...
Hope to see some others Krauts, let's make a "german corner" at the voxgate

Four swedes as well (if we got tickets that is; two mail's away)!

Let's not make a swedish corner, let's mingle with the entire world!

I've requested 2 tickets for me and hubby, and my friend in Norway has also requested a ticket.
I see I'm not the only one traveling rather far (from Seattle, US) for this event:)

I've requested 2 tickets, would be great to meet other website members!
Bests,
Rob.

I have relayed your thoughts to newvox. Thanks to you both and hope everyone has a good time there.

Sounds like fun. I'm crossing my fingers for two tix for me & my friend who are coming out from San Francisco. I just saw the message today, a bit late.

Between this show and the Brighton one, it's bound to be a fab adventure. I really look forward to meeting other UV fans.

Hey Johnny, i have to email you my mobile number. I found out that my iphone works in the UK. I want to connect with you guys in Brighton and Hammersmith. Are you going to the pre-show? Let me know.....

I am coming from Indianapolis with my g-friend. Hope to see you all there.

Sweden calling, again...
I just got the mail, feels like I´m a bit late when I´m reading the notes here, but whiii what I would LOVE to have two tickets for the Voxgate!!

Klara - did you send an email to voxgatehammersmith@yahoo.co.uk with your request? If not, please make sure you send one, only emailed requests for tickets (with your full name, email & postal address) will be accepted.

Ta!

I've sent in my request for tickets. Coming over from Chicago for three shows. This Voxgate sounds like a blast!

weird, could've sworn I posted in here yesterday. Anyway, a friend of mine tells me I'm coming (more organised than me...); looking forward to meeting the Monument guys finally.

Cerise- Yes Thank You for the info.
I did mail at once! *pjuh* Happy and with a hopeful heartbeating...

Has anyone received a notification for this yet?

No, not yet, apart from the few who we have contacted because they are coming from overseas and won't be in a position to have tickets mailed to them in time before they leave for the UK.

The reason some won't have received notification yet is due to the huge numbers of e-mails we received. EV received nearly three hundred requests for tickets; we are still receiving them daily. We could easily have filled the room twice over, and possibly more. Contacting people who will receive tickets will be done over the next few days, and tickets will be sent out in due course, although this is likely now to be at the beginning of next week as we have to get them printed and numbered, etc. I appreciate it's taking longer than anticipated, but on the plus side, it is still over three weeks until the Hammersmith date.

Hope this clears your confusion up Ian.

Regards,


Paul

Hi all - not been on this forum for a long while, and I was hoping to get to the Voxgate but just missed out on tickets as I applied too late.

Is there a plan to meet up after the gig? I'd really like to see the few of you I have met, and of course meet the 'regulars'!

Also - any plans for a Camden Voxgate for the following Thursday?

Natalie

Hi Natalie,

Don't worry, I already put one by for you as I knew you'd want to come, but weren't around to drop us a line. I just sent you an email.

Cheers,
Cerise.

Hi Paul

Thanks for your reply. I have a suggestion - I get them occasionally!!! Because the post can be erratic - if those coming from overseas prefer, can they not pick their tickets up on the door on the night? They could confirm their membership number & user name as ID. As an additional check, why not confirm the avatar they use? This would also save on postage too. That way, everyone who is receiving a ticket can be notified by e-mail in the order they applied. Hope this makes sense & you don't mind me raising this. Was just a little thought I had as I know the post in my area can be crap,never mind overseas!!!

I'm certainly interested in anything going on afterwards. I don't get out much these days so I intend making the most of it at Brum & Hammy.

Funnily enough, we were thinking the same thing...

There's a phrase that comes to mind, but as "fools never differ" can be added, I'm not gonna say it!!!

I can see why you've suggested that, so no problem. However, the problem is that the three of us are not neccessariy going to be in a position of sitting on the door and checking everyone who comes in - because of the numbers, it's one of the reasons why we've had to agree to security being on the door. But we're sure we've taken correct steps to ensure everyone who is going to get a ticket (from wherever they're coming from) will receive them in time for the event.



Regards,


Paul

Thank goodness for that!

I applied for two tickets the day I received Cerise's mail. What's the score on those, my fine Bristolian? When are you going to let us know who has been lucky and who hasn't? I'm rather looking forward to both things now. I anticipate catching the bus as I might be tempted to have a few liveners too!

Mail confirmations are going out to successful applicants starting later today and tickets wil be sent from Monday/Tuesday onwards next week.




Cerise, Rob and Paul

You're an absolute star for doing this, Cerise - I really appreciate it! Well, I look forward to seeing everyone - and Monument - yay! - beforehand!

Still on for a drink after if anyone else is too. I'll look into pubs round there unless anyone else has a suggestion.

Natalie
