I thought you wanted to get different instances per occurrence in
order to add different notes to it.

As a programmer, I do understand your objection. However, I tend to
have following structure:

    * Events
    ** LUGG meetings                  :LUGG:common:tags:
    
       - common information about this event
    
    *** <...> single occurrence
    *** <...> another occurrence
    [...]

For other purposes, I am also using the following approach:

    * Events
    ** LUGG meetings                  :LUGG:common:tags:
    
       - common information about this event

       - <2013-09-30 Sun 18:00-20:00> 
       - <2013-10-06 Sun 18:00-20:00> 
       - [...]

This is a rather minimal approach and works only if you do show
each time-stamp in your agenda. You can still add notes as a
sub-list to any occurrence. 

However, AFIAK you can not use org-clone-subtree-with-time-shift
with it. (... except by using the first method above and convert the
heading to list items - the opposite to C-c C-*)

You're welcome.
