Glyn Williams Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Hiya, I'm trying to gauge interest in a reunion at Alfreton Leisure Centre. Date would more than likely be 30th August on an 8pm - 1am slot Interested to know your views. Have not yet decided to go for it, the room and PA hire is expensive. Would be looking at £6 on the door £5 in advance. Music policy would be as Alfreton used to be in the early days, simply 60's and 70's northern with a splattering of newer Please do leave your views and if you want to be kept informed then join the mailing list here https://snazzyshirts.net/soul Cheers and beers. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Byrney Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Used to go to Alfreton nighters, I think in 1980 81 but what new has this to offer? Is it not just going to replicate the oldies playlist prevalent at most of the other East Mids venues? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Glyn Williams Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Not that much interest then lol. Byrney, it would be like Alfreton used to be when I ran it with Ian. Good wide range of northern from 60's 70's. we didn't overplay oldies and don't intend to start now. If you had attended in the 90's then you would know what I meant. But by the looks of the lack of responses it may be a non starter. break even is around a grand and i'd like to have seen a bigger reaction to enable me to put that on the line. Maybe it's not the right time yet. Edited April 17, 2014 by Glyn Williams Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Good luck Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Casper Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Alfreton was always superb in its time .. the first reunions were very well supported .. the last one not so much , but not bad .. its how you promopte it Glynn .. at least 6 months ahead , and getting yourself about and use face book more .. no reason why it should not be a winner , just need to spark peoples memories .. atb pete n' susan xx Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
