The night went well, as have the previous nights at Bilston Town Hall. The staff provided by the venue (bar staff, door guardians, sound engineer) are first class - pleasant, helpful and friendly. As I've mentioned before, the venue itself is clean, smart and just perfect for this type of event. The DJs played a mix of music. This included some classic, familiar sounds, less familiar sounds, 60's, 70's, Crossover, RnB, rare, nor so rare and some absolute top notch BIG Tunes. We were very pleased with how things went. I've allocated 4 stars rather than 5. This is simply because, while there was a decent number in on the night, it would have been nice to see more folks in. Due to the nature of the venue and the people who were there, it still created a fantastic atmosphere. Similar to finding a great place to go on holiday before it gets too crowded! The folks that were there seemed to have a great time and it was nice to get feedback on the night from them to confirm. It was really good to see Soul Source member @Soulmate60 and friends there. They made an enquiry on the pre-event thread and, as promised, attended. They were in early and one of the last to leave, dancing all night! Thanks to you and your friends for making the trip and supporting the event. Seeing people enjoying themselves like that really does make it worth putting these nights on. The next one is in March 2025, so onwards and upwards. I hope you can come along and see what this event is all about. All the best, KB
Floyd October 28, 2024Oct 28 3 of 3 members say helpful 3 / 3 members First time for us at Bilston Town Hall, Musically it was the best soul night i have been to in years shame numbers were a little low bit it didnt spoil the night as the sounds were excellent. all the DJs did good spots but the star of the night for me was Andy Dennison . I hadnt heard Andy before but his spot was excellent , right up my street. Will definately be back for more if thats the standard of music played there ATB Floyd Response from the promoter: Hi Floyd, Thanks for attending Bilston and for your review, it's very much appreciated. Agreed regarding Andy Dennison, who is also to be a really nice guy!!
