Gerry Kreibich Finds the News

Gerry Kreibich has just been up in his loft and come up with a treasure trove of Pavilion memorabilia in the form of old copies of the Matlock Mercury. He has turned them into a 15 minute video, which we hope to be able to use.

They include editions with adverts for Rod Stewart, Eric Clapton and many other musicians, who appeared in the Pavilion. There is also a comment from the owner of the Matlock Mercury suggesting that raised seating at the back will give a better view, "but it would cost thousands".


You bet it will!

Fantastic Coverage in the Matlock Mercury

The coverage in the Matlock Mercury has been fantastic this week. It really does give us a boost to see our case so effectively covered.

I am personally very grateful to Amanda Hatfield for coming out to the Pavilion and having a look around. She saw it "in the raw" as after her visit we tidied it up significantly; so it was safe for members of The Friends of the Grand Pavilion to see.
