well what a day it turned out to be...the team had arrived at mine by midday and after copious amounts of tea and coffee
and various rolls sorted by my better half the motor was loaded and we were on our way.....bit worried when johns sat nav had an irish accent as it was determined to send us the wrong way...we eventually arrived about 20 mins before our departure time
it was a short crossing as we had decided to go from pompey so as to save on the cost of travel....within an hour of leaving the dock we were enjoying a great lunch in a nice pub in fishbourne...we arrived at the venue and set up various banners and decided to go for a walk to shake off any cobwebs
on arriving back at the venue i was informed by the promoters i had set up in the wrong room and we were moved out into the large marquee in the carpark......a lot larger then where we had originally been
after soundchecks and a run through of the equipment the night got underway....i did the first hour and was followed by wigan brian who did a sterling job...well done mate...next up was myself and johnny "h" from the groovejunkies we decided to do a 30 minute motown set and left big al and keith williams with a few ppl on the floor
30 mins later and it was johns hour long stint behind the decks and the night was well and truly underway..the venue was now filling up nicely and the mixture of soulies and scooterists waisted no time in hitting the floor..great stuff john
big al of soul cake fame..the venue not the food..was next up and played some great tunes and proved that many scooterists had moved on from...the cheese and the overplayed tunes they get associated with....many thanks al
last but by no means least was keith williams from crewe and as he played my all time fave tune i was very happy..keith also played lotsa tunes not really associated with the scooter scene
all in all an excellent day and many thanks to all the very nice comments from everyone during the night
great to see dave and sue,little ian and ciara,pete tebbutt,gary and anne todd and the sussex soul regulars...lotsa babes on show too
thanks to all the djs for making the night a big success...playlists and you tubes to follow
regards moldie
