Broadstairs is fine- if you like concerts - and listening to bands in pubs. If you want to sing or play yourself - opportunities are few, and the venues get uncomfortably crowded.
Also, they seem set in their ways about who they book.
Sidmouth is better set up, with its Fringe Festival, though being able to play on the seafront is hampered by the huge numbers of traders.

I thought Blitherscrum must be taking a year off... not heard a peep about it this year (well, not on Mudcat anyway). :)

Anyone know if it's happening? :0

I understand Blitherscrum was cancelled this year on grounds of Health and Efficiency.
