Steve Bull 26/06/07 What you guys need is a D.J. booth!! Then you might get some classy southern D.J.s up there, and some crap one s too. The white wine needs a re-think n all!! Although it might come in handy with the re-decorating! Hope to see you again soon.....enjoy the fresh air!!!!
Olly Alcock 17/09/06 Hey yooze lot! Hope you saw your footage on't Border T.V. They eventually put it out for three Thursdays running. You were actually on the last of the 3 shows, we did 'Sweet Home Chicago', & it showed all the regular drunks. (& us regular drunks). Amazingly, it didn't sound too bad (as they did it 'live'). Must remember to give Terry (roadie) some extra cash. After that I'll nail jelly to the ceiling.
Steve 30/07/06 When are Ulpha 590 back? Can't see them on the gig list! They are a top band and can't wait to hear them again! Ste

Casual Acquaintance 22/04/06 Come on the Bootleggers. Never disappointed. Going for a drink, always one of the youngest in there but what a crowd!!!! Music is quality, Friday night, football on Saturday, quiet drink, going out, keep it casual and end up rockin out in Bootleggers to Dead Beats!! Awesome. Wish id been on the proper lash! Saying that was pretty pi**ed until the three mile walk home. Worth it though. Hope to see them on a pi**ed up Saturday night in 'leggers soon. Fu**ing quality. I love you.

John from the Seals 26/10/05 Hello there all, John from the Seals here. Just to say that we're all looking
forward to playing your fine establishment on Friday. We've got a great band
playing with us in the form of Ivan Campo from Preston. Rumour has it that a big
record company is coming up to check 'em out. Also, the band was wondering if
you could ask Ken if he would mind NOT wearing his catsuit and rollerblades
during the sound check. Not only did this cause distraction during the
soundcheck (Chris Edgar gaffered himself to a pair of bass bins)  but Jay Glover
hasn't been able to play with his "Starlight Express" puppet set for three
weeks. It's just not on.
Catdog 14/10/05 Hi Bootleggers - you'll be glad to hear we've got a sh*tload of new material for you for the gig tonight. Looking forward to playing the best gig venue in South Cumbria - ohh and Penny you are very cute!! xx

Cliff Rescue And The Helicopters 15/04/05 Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to Rach and the crew after out gig last Thursday with new guitarist Paul. Cheers for permission to let us use the smoke and the pyros - a Cliff show just isn't the same without them! Hope the haze has finally cleared and looking forward to playing / smoking out the venue again. Take care and keep rockin' Mike (Cliff Drums)

Jaxx 17/09/04 Good gig last night by Cacophony, great stuff. The bar gets better, but hows about you look into buying that disused bakers shop right infront of the bar and expanding some more!

Marty and Bev 15/6/03 We cannot remember the name of the band who played the afternoon we were there but they were fantastic (and loud). And meeting Sting in this bar made our experience in the lake district all the more memorable (if only we had thought to bring our camera from the hotel!).
