Thanks Martin - and of course thanks for your co-producing assistance over the past months it is appreciated my friend

Your suggestions are noted - once I've recovered from last night we can make plans for the festive offering(s)

3-4 hours intermediate shows with maybe a big bang nighter for Xmas or New Year has it's appeal I'm sure, and I'm sure the crew will be happy to chip in with their thoughts

Over to you Steve

Thanks Simon for the intro I dipped my toes in from 6 pm until 8ish  then really dipped my toes and the rest of me into the hot tub .. until 9.30 ish  was listening and trying to multi task,  soul source,  Radioking and mixcloud,  ended up having both Radioking and mixcloud on together and with the time lag I was hearing every word in every verse twice   which was a very strange experience .That and listening to Rob was . How can I describe it weird I then realised it was much better listening to Radioking and mixcloud  together than Rob.  It made more sense.  Then to  make matters worse I lost sound on the laptop , I could still type messages in the chatroom but couldn't hear anything  trying numerous times to refresh,  spookily Rob n julie television also had a loss of sound.  So never got any of the last few hours   Doubly gutted  no music and having to listen to Rob. Wittering on. By this time lou had retired after having a few glasses ( bottles  ) of wine, Me n julie trying to ignore him but that's not really possible,  if you know Rob you will understand.  Another normal night in my world

Disclaimer.  Due to the current situation.  None of the above actually happened it was just my elusive dream. 

Happy and thankful to be involved in the studio banter,no script or format as such.We slotted the selections and comments in hopefully the right places and kept it fluid as to the order of play and managed to fit it in live requests,no mean feat I can assure you!! Happy we took some of the onus off Simon, which allowed him to concentrate on the engineering of the event.

Thanks to ALL involved on Radio King And Mixcloud chatrooms.I think any first time listeners and there were a few! liked what they heard. Really enjoyed the "change of pace" that Sir Bob's "something else room" spot brought to the table.  

Keep your eyes on here and The Bury VAN Facebook page for details of future events  

Exceptional Music All-Night until my head hit the laptop just after midnight....I learned that age and alcohol don't mix very well, particularly as My Football team kicked off at 1pm yesterday, and carried on the celebrations of both Simon's birthday and the BVAN anniversary! Congratulations on an always guaranteed Good Time Musically, and long may it continue.. 

Thanks

Can I add my thanks to Simon and the rest of the team for last night and for helping to keep me relatively sane during this period of madness.  Although I gave up chatting I did manage to keep listening until approx 1pm when wine tiredness crept in.  Loved the format, though Bob's 30 mins were magic to my ears.  I hope the event will be available to listen to on mixcloud again, as I want to see if anyone went full on stompers as the evening wore on.

The December possibilities are interesting, though the family Xmas thing might get in the way of Boxing Day.

Stay safe and soulful

Neil
