2011-01-22: Burnley Allnighter, The Kestral Suite

soul event news

Event Title: BURNLEY ALLNIGHTER, THE KESTRAL SUITE

Event Author: Sean Haydon

Calendar: Allnighter/Weekenders

Event Date: Sat 22 January 2011

-------------------------------------------------

BURNLEY ALLNIGHTER, THE KESTRAL SUITE.

(THE NEXT CHAPTER)

Following Barrie's unfortunate announcement that he no longer wishes to continue with the Burnley Allnighter, myself and Karl Heard have taken The Kestral Suite on to continue the nighters.

We are aware that another venue is not strictly necessary with what appears to be a very busy nighter schedule, but feel that Burnley has played such an important part in our scene over the last few years, together with the fact that we have had so much interest from the original regular attendees, is the main reason to give it a try. It would be a shame to lose such an event that Phil Kowalski created.

Both Karl and I have approached Phil in the hope that he would join us, but regretfully, due to other circumstances, has declined.

Not wanting to offend anyone or tread on toes, we aim at just having four nights per year. We feel that by doing this allows us the flexibility to work with and around other nighters throughout the calendar. Allnighters that we enjoy attending and promoters that we respect.

The club will have no hard and fast music policy and a no politics principle. It's not about DJ egos or club competition, just a place where people can come to enjoy themselves, hear some fantastic music and be happy.

The first night is booked for January the 22^nd with the following DJ's confirmed. (In no order).

Willie West

Big Danny

Jumping Joan

Fred Kroll

Cliff Camfield

Stuart Bennet

Myself & Karl Heard.

With this line up and the original sound system, we aim to please.

If anyone has any questions or would like to discuss anything, please either PM me or email me at seanhaydon@me.com

Many thanks and hope to see you there.

Sean

Can't wait, Sean/Karl it's an honour to do a Lp set at the bat cave and be sharing the decks with such a fantastic lineup of dj's............... awesome.

Will be starting the night off with a selection of Lp only, cover versions and underplayed tunes.

I'll be there with bitten down nails and a large bag of pampers lol.

I've been wanting to hear Fred & Cliff play again as I've only heard them once which was memorable - as are all the DJ's on that lineup... I'm going to pencil this one in and hope that everyone who's able to support you does and those that aren't able leave you alone to promote freely and without malice. It's about the music after all :thumbsup:

What a great bit of news :lol:

Even more so because it really looks like you're going to make Burnley a 'not to be missed' night. Four times a year means each one will have a real buzz not just on the night itself but in the build up to it as well, as a monthly nighter it was too easy to think 'doesn't matter if I miss it this time, I'll go next month instead'. But it's a long gap between visits if you miss one now and I think that will really encourage people to make the effort to get there, which hopefully will mean it's a packed night and electric atmosphere everytime.

Knowing you two guys fairly well it's clear that the only reason you're doing this is down to your passion for the music and in particular for the spirit of the 'Burnley Bat Cave' that Phil originally created. Would have been great if Phil had opted to join you in this, despite a few personal fall outs between Phil and myself I will always say that as the promoter of Burnley he did a superb job and built something special for everyone that went.

With Sean and Karls' enthusiasm, DJ line ups like the one for January and the same sound system used by Phil this is going to be something special and I'm looking forward to it already.......there will be a car load of us making the journey up from Coventry without doubt :thumbsup: :lol:

Good luck with this one guys, it may even tempt me to attend as it looks a good lineup, with the right folks promoting it who know what the venue's about.

Well, firstly I'd like to thank you all for your kind posts and best wishes, they are very much appreciated.

Now then, Karl has the thankless task of booking and organising the DJ's. Being the kind of bloke he is, he has already sorted the DJ times. (These are his words, not mine)

10:00 Willie West. (33rpm Wind Breaker) You may be surprised, quite a collection in the 12"

11.00 Sean Haydon. (The Wolverhampton Wart Hog) Making a name with great taste and play box to match.

12:00 Stu Bennet (The Burnley Bison) What a collection (and for years). Loves it!

1:00 Joan (The Princess of Preston, via Luton airport) Only PURE soul will do...With passion and a massive smile of course.

2:00 Danny Price (Goliath on Acid). Great Taste in Raw Thumping Nighter tunes.

3:00 Cliff Camfield (The Legend is back!) Nothing this bloke doesn't know about this music...Had the lot and knows how to lay em down.

4:00 Karl Heard (The Thundering Wildebeest) Loves it so much, he just can't keep still...Funk edged Northern, not for the feint hearted!

5:00 Fred Kroll (Sweet as a box of sugar coated marshmallows) Never sold a record...Wow, what a collection.

6:00 Hopefully, the worst bit of the night!!!

that's really nice thing to write, thank you....

It was mine and Kyle's favourite place, we heard so many new sounds here and I always felt part of this 'in group' ..... a sense of belonging, and I met lots of new friends here

so I'm extra excited that Burnley Bat Cave is once more

It will always be a special place for me...........with great memories of my Kyle

Makes complete sense to me, sorting the DJ times before booking the DJ's. Shows there's a lot of thought going into it. I know someone that used to do a whole years worth of DJ times before booking the DJ's (Not me honest!) :thumbsup: My lifts already booked with John 'n' Jen. As has already been said - four times a year can only be beneficial, more folk will make the effort (Myself included)

Best of luck with this.

All the best,

Len.
