Neil Rushton Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 The 4th Annual Soulvation Catacombs DJ's Ge Together takes place on Saturday July 11 at Great Wyrley Football Club from 8pm till Iam. DJ's are - Blue Max - Bill Baker - Neil Rushton - Oscar Michael (tbc) Admission is just 3 quid before 9pm, and 5 quid after. The music on the night will be 100% classic anthems from The Cats - the greatest little soul club in the land. Lea Hall Club, Rugeley is unavailable this night so we have moved the party to Great Wyrley FC. Soul nights have been held there in the past and it's a great atmospheric venue between Walsall and Cannock and just off the Orbital Island on the A5. The annual Cats night always gets 200 plus in and we are expecting a great night full of nostalgia to the soundtrack of Johnny Sayles,Jo Armstead,Mamie Galore, Bob & Earl Band, Earl Jackson, Richard Temple, The Sapphires, The Cooperettes. Rose Battiste. Sounds Of Lane, Jeanette White, Danny White, Lester Young,Herb Johnson, Emile Griffiths,Les McCann,The Marvelettes, Jimmy Conwell, Bob Relf, Dena Barnes, Epitome Of Sound,Lorraine Chandler,The Trips, Hoagy Lands,Sandi Sheldon and other Temple Street monsters - and note before 9pm reduced admission price.

Gaz Lees Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 This is a really nice venue been there many times in the past its got a good wooden dance floor and plenty of seating so were looking forward to this. There will be so many great tunes to take you back to the good old Cats days, so the dance floor should be full all night. So we'll get there early £3 in before 9.00 great value. Link to comment
