Shocking news from one of the promoting team. Been asked to pass on that the next niter at Tonys in Blackburn will be the last!! They just have been told that due to lease running out and management of venue changes, they will not be able to hold any more niters after the May one! As the 2nd longest running niter in the UK (been running 17 years) and one of the most famous niters, it will surely be missed by many. Such was the suddeness of this news that flyers for the May event have already bee

After the feedback on how many enjoyed Sundays Rarest Of the Rare Special on Jazz Fm asked one of the guests Andy Rix for a few quick words on how it all went,
Well it was only a 4 hour show but getting ready for it seemed to have taken forever.
Trying to choose tracks that qualify as the Rarest of the Rare is not an easy task and one made even more difficult by trying to have a few never-heard-before tunes to give people that something extra.

With the 40th anniversary looming, I’ve considered the future of the 6TS all-nighters at the 100 Club. They have run very well (with the usual hiccups) over the last 12 months and I appreciate the two nighters off a year that Matt has run so successfully recently. With advancing years, I do find the whole nighter tiring though, particularly the start, so Matt and I have come up with a solution. I’ll continue to run the anniversary nighters and Xmas parties alone, but after this year’s anniversar
