Hi, try Hastings Old Town, interesting place and I've seen several CDs there. There's a group who meet at a pub between the new town and St. Leonards but I don't have a contact for them, sorry. There's an annual Pirates Day festival in Old Town which is bonkers, I went out as a camp pirate with lots of make up and nobody even noticed me, so many Jack Sparrow lookalikes. I'll be there in late Sept, if you're interested in meeting you can PM me, but can't promise I'll be fully dressed, depends on my weight at the time (yes, such vanity).
Hope you have fun what ever you get up to!
Nikki
