Bassetlaw Soul Club
Worksop Sat 30 Nov 2024

No soul event I have ever been to deserves less than 5 stars,  if i could give this one ten i would , the amount of unseen work that goes on by promoters, financial risks , investment in equipment , preparation by the staff , D J'S with their collection of records , & travelling miles to entertain. Much appreciated by me . This is my effort,  brothers & sisters lend me your eyes . Day began with a flat tyre ,bugger! It's 11am I'm on a tight schedule,  local garage sorts me out , to the cafe for a full English, black pudding, fried bread, don't need to ask they know what I want ! Park & ride tram , it's rammed,  I'm heading to Forest v Ipswich, City is packed with shoppers etc, supporters club for couple of guiness zeros. Scappy game we win 1 nil . Back on tram I tell ya sardines get more room ! Call at chippy on way to the Mansfield Rd , then on to the notorious A614, the weather is good for driving,  arrive at the Innings just after 7pm. First time here good looking room , I know a lot of the faces, friendly welcome especially by Birthday boy Billy . So , let the dancing begin & boy just about everyone here his a good dancer , proper vibe , proper respecting each others space . Had a bit of a disaster went for a pee & the zip broke on my trousers so had to wear my tee shirt out to cover my potential embarrassment! Lot of talc used , not my liking , bit slippy at times . Good mix of northern anthems & r & b . R & B popular with regulars . I left 11 . 20 pm swiftly out the door i don't do long goodbyes . Brilliant event ,Brilliant day . Don't ever stop keeping on xx
