The 2nd BM KISS Rally will be held from 31st August to 2nd September 2012 at the same venue as last year - Stoke Prior Sports and Country Club, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire which is now under new management. Ticket price has increased slightly due to overheads increasing but we have kept this to a minimum and tickets are £13 each and available to members plus their guest only. There will be no admittance to previously banned members who have had a guest ticket purchased for them so please don’t make us turn anyone away.Tickets are not permitted to be passed around or sold as the KISS Rally is a private rally (invitation only as it were) unlike Farmyard for instance which is public. This is because different H&S rules apply for both, insurance is different for instance, public being very much more expensive and would impact on the price you pay just for one example. If anybody is unsure about whether they can go or they need more than 1 ticket, then its best to leave it until later and you know for sure what your circumstances are.Entertainment: There is one band plus DJ on the Friday with some daft stuff thrown inbetween and 2 bands plus DJ on the Saturday (as well as a special appearance from certain BM members you won't want to miss provided the required amount is raised for charity). We are looking into other entertainment/activities as well dependent on ticket sales and funding but any "extras" will be announced much closer to the date. Non-ticket holding members are welcome to join us for the day for the ride-outs etc. if they find that's all they can manage (details to be announced closer to the date and subject to change due to weather conditions on the day). However, wristbands/tickets will be required for entry to the venue for evening entertainment etc. as well as camping, any other activities during the day and any special price menu set up for us by the venue. Tickets were on sale last year up to a couple of days before the event and we will let you know well in advance of any cut-off point this year too so that no-one misses out. If you have any questions regarding tickets/t-shirts etc. or any special requests please PM a member of the KISS team and one of us will get back to you. There are FOUR of us organising this event for you (Boss Mom, Brummie Jackie, Scorpio54 and jpharley), and each of us are responsible for various aspects of the rally but if you get in touch with any of us I'm sure the relevant person will get an answer to you. With the success of last year's rally it is quite possible that this year will be a sell-out so we suggest buying tickets as soon as you are able rather than risk missing out. We are offering t-shirts, hoodies (zipped or standard) and vest tops this year BEFORE the rally and hopefully some of you will already have spotted the design/colouring on myself, BJ, JP or Ken over the last couple of months at events. All merchandise is black with very bright orange logo/lettering (pic on Boss Mom’s profile).We don’t care how you get there either, bike, car or camel is fine, however cars will only be permitted onto the camping area whilst you unload, then they will have to be parked in the car park, blue badge holders please contact a member of the team if you need anything different.Finally, if anyone has a disabled profile rest assured you can still purchase a ticket via the event page and we will still be aware of your attendance. Tickets and merchandise available here:

If you are coming by car you will need to leave your car on the car park after unloading UNLESS you are a blue badge holder. any disabled members needing help on the day please contact us and we will make sure any help needed is avallible
Just to clarify what is said on the events page - T-SHIRTS/TICKETS ARE TO BE COLLECTED AT THE RALLY, NOTHING WILL BE SENT OUT IN THE POST. You will get confirmation of your purchase from Paypal when payment is made and this is your record. (Should anyone be unsure whether their order/payment has been received then please just PM Boss Mom and she will clarify for you.)

Is there a limit to the number of tickets you can sell... Because I WANT to come to this and have put plans in place to be able too but can't get the tickets as of right now.. so just was a wondering if there is a chance that I might miss out because of number of folk against number of tickets and is time of the essence... Should I sell that cats??
Stormin is the same every year and it's just like all the other MAG rallies
(which are good, don't get me wrong)
But knowing almost everyone "personally" at a rally gives it a "special" quality
The farmyard used to feel like that when it was at Cat Babbleton, but since the move to Duncome (and a breif flirtation with Castle Howard) it has become very impersonal and more people are spending more time in their own little encampments because of the huge attendances
[Just an observation and a "personal point of view"]
I'm really looking forward to this
