As a latest addition to CO72 Kev John will do a half hr set in the afternoon remembering 'Minsh' in vinyl.  don't miss Kev's personal selections....

Kev is as qualified as anyone to do this 'vinyl memory' being a very close friend of Keith's and indeed took him to many venues up and down

Keith did a cracking spot last year and was down to play again this year in October

Looking forward to it as I suspect will many others

I'd like to publicly thank them again on behalf of CO72 event.

These DJ's travel from far and wide and give their time , effort and indeed their 'sounds' for nothing..just so we can raise as much as we can for charity

Hats off to the DJ's...you are all 'stars' and we ALL appreciate your efforts

OK...have had a few private messages asking me 'do you have to buy a wristband beforehand' ?

The club have also had numerous phone calls with similar questions !!

Well the answer is YES you can pay on the door.

£10 entry on the door...you will receive a wristband PLUS a complimentary raffle ticket

We released a set number of wristbands for sale prior to the event as some people like to plan ahead and buy wristbands in advance

See you all on Saturday
