The summer of 2008 saw Rock with Laughter going “on the road” for a series of summer shows taking in venues at stateley homes from Leeds down to Suffolk.
Headed by Lenny Henry and an appearence from Jasper Carrott, the shows featured top artists such as Jo Brand, Elkie Brooks, Phill Jupitas with the original Blockheads, the Manfreds and what better way to end an open air show than a rousing chorus of “la,la, la, la, la, la, Hey Jude” from the Bootleg beatles.

Rock with Laughter Line up Hot List “did you know”
Posted on July 23, 2010, by admin, under Rock with Laughter, rock with laughter show.
Here’s a fun packed blog full of some things you may not know about this years Rock with Laughter line-up, but lets start by wishing Dave Hill from Slade a speedy recovery after being taken ill on tour last week. Dave is now taking it easy and we’re looking forward to seeing him in full Slade mode for Rock with Laughter in December.
So – Did You Know? -
Led Zeppelin legend Robert Plant was once considered as the front man for Slade. Noddy had been working as part of the road crew for Plants band The N’ Betweeners in 1968 but Slade’s tour manager said “no, Nod can do the Job”, and the rest is history. As somebody who has more than a passing interest in Slade having seen them probably 50 times in their early days and followed them from club to club, through their skin-head era and beyond, I wonder would Planty really have “Got down and got with it” as well as Noddy did?

Wanna be a VIP? Rock with Laughter have announced the special ‘Backstage’ VIP Hospitality packages, and yes, it really is backstage, you walk past the dressing rooms and everything!
THE ULTIMATE BJÖRN AGAIN VIP PARTY
Hosted by Heart FM’s very own Dave Clark
On Friday and Saturday nights we have a pre-show Christmas Carvery and a fabulous post-show party hosted by Heart fm’s own Dave Clarke, featuring international performers Björn Again with their glittering cabaret of the best of Abba’s hits. Dave Clarke hosted last year’s party (back by public demand) and is a hugely popular party man. He’ll keep the music going through to 2.00am, so all the Dancing Queens and Kings will have the opportunity to strut their stuff into the early hours.
LAZY SUNDAY AFTERNOON BACKSTAGE CHRISTMAS PARTY
Hosted by Heart FM’s very own Dave Clark
The Sunday Rock with Laughter show starts at 6.00pm so instead of the late night parties on Friday and Saturday, we have a lazy Sunday pre-show party, starting at 2.00pm, with a glass of bubbly and a Christmas Carvery, followed by fun and games in the Party Pavilion before the Arena show at 6.00pm. These special packages include VIP access to both the Party Pavilion and the Arena with free and convenient parking – have a look at the Rock with Laughter website for more details www.rockwithlaughter.com
The ‘Backstage’ party has become an integral part of the whole Rock with Laughter phenomenon and the entertainment backstage is almost as exciting as the stage show!
This is a great way to start the Christmas frivolities. By booking the VIP package you also get the best position show seats, so it really is a VIP experience!

Rolf Harris has once again stormed the Glastonbury crowds as he opened at the Pyramid stage yesterday at 11am. When most of us were still heads down and dreaming of the weekend Rolf and his wobbleboard were entertaining the crowds. Tens of thousands flocked to watch Rolf as he opened Glastonbury 2010.
Paul MacInnes of the Guardian agrees that “It wouldn’t be Glastonbury without Rolf Harris and a wobble board”. Read his full report here
We just know that Rolf will receive the same reception at this years Rock with Laughter, as a much loved entertainer, we just can’t wait.

The extraordinary talent on show this year is outstanding with the outrageous Alan Carr and Jo Brand (more…)
