Jez Jones Members Wednesday at 11:075 days Just a polite reminder...you may have noticed from the flyer...that we are starting the music at 7.30pm and not the customary 7pm start.The Friday teatime/end of working week traffic has made it increasingly difficult to keep to time...and dont get me started on roadworks ffs !!!HOWEVER the bar will open at 7pm so you can meet and greet other people in the spacious bar area whilst we finish setting upThose of you who have arrived early in the past will have noticed we are busy ,feverishly trying to get everything set up to how we all want it and its always a race against the clock Thanks for your consideration and understanding
Jez Jones Members Thursday at 09:394 days Just a slight change in personnel...unfortunately Tom can't make it...and to say he's gutted is an understatement. He has a badly sprained ankle and it's totally out of the question to travel all the way up from Rugby in Friday night summer holiday traffic.. and hobble about behind a set of decks for an hour !! in agonyWe WILL invite Tom back in the near future and we are very much looking forward to it...and you can take that 'to the bank' as Shalimar would say....From us ALL at Silktown get well soon Tom !!!In the meantime our 'task focussed' HR dept 🙂" referrerpolicy="origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t4c/1/16/1f642.png" style="border: 0px; border-radius: 0px; object-fit: fill;"> ..sprang into action and secured the services of...wait for it BEN OWEN..yes THAT Ben Owen of Blackpool Tower Weekender fame alongside Whitchurch All nighters and many many more prestigious events ....I dont need to explain when you fill Blackpool Tower ballrooms dancefloor...you've hit the motherlode.....you've 'beasted' it..no really they aint much more that you can do to capture the crowds interest..apart from maybe giving a rendition of nessum dorma in full Pavarotti Tenor mode............we'll skip on that in Macclesfield though !!!So as you can see....there will be NO compromise...same 'Full on Northern Soul for the dancefloor' for a crowd who expect it !!!Enjoy !!!!
Jez Jones Members Thursday at 16:263 days Just a few 'housekeeping notes and polite requests/remindersCan we ask that if you really need to use talc...can it be kept to a bare minimum and not sprayed liberally over the floor area..it really is a nuisance for the staff tending the floor afterwards....many dancers I speak to say its not needed on this floor anywayCan we also ask if anyone wants to video the dancers with a focus on individuals can they please refrain..its important that we protect/respect peoples privacyCan we also ask that you don't consume drinks etc not purchased from the bar..it has been brought to our attention that empty bottles/cans have been found that haven't been purchased from the venue...lets give the venue a chance to make this event profitable...they put a lot of effort into making sure this event is qualityYour co-operation in these matters is greatly appreciated
Geeselad Members Thursday at 18:183 days Unfortunately one of our guests has had to pull out due to an injury,However we did manage to DJ d a very able replacement
Geeselad Members Thursday at 22:173 days Tom had an injury and we hope he'll be able to make a future date for us at Macclesfield. Fortunately Ben Owen of Blackpool Tower fame, no less, will be laying down some great dancefloor oriented Northern and he's a most appreciated stand in.
Jez Jones Members Friday at 07:573 days For those who haven't been before....Here at Silktown Soul..we focus on one particular metric which best reflects the event and what to expect......FULL ON NORTHERN SOUL FOR THE DANCEFLOOR'bout covers it' !!
