Ficklefingers Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Just added to the line up Fingers. up to date listing on the web site. www.soulforheroes.webs.com YESSSSSSssss.. !! A great honour to be included, and take part in, what is destined to be an 'Occasion of Particular Note' & HISTORIC importance.. A day that shall forever claim it's own (rightful) position in the Bible (indeed, entire WORLD..) of Rare Soul Music !! Personally pleasing on another level too - sharing the Deckin' Line-Up alongside Top Soul Peeps & Soul Connoisseurs Extraordinaire, that wonderfully dynamic decking duo (and highly respected friends & [Co]-mentors of mine) - Mr & Mrs 'Rare Soul Inc.'Carl & Maria Willingham This is one gig I'm not going to want to miss a MINUTE of, so I think I'll be heading off early.. Wednesday 4th November should do it !! Fingers Link to comment
Ficklefingers Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Oh yes !! Almost forgot.. I'll also be opening my 'Record Bar' for most of the day - probably in the region of 500(ish) 45's on offer. From very cheap to four figure price tags - But all at SENSIBLE prices, and I'm very easy to deal with and encourage open dialogue if a short payment term is required to enable securing THAT want. I'll be sure to take the porta-player & headphones so's peeps can have a listen to any potential items of interest - even if just to satisfy their curiosity & without any intent to make purchase. I'm always happy to assist (in any way I possibly can), with any 'educational' issues that individuals may be interested to satisfy. Even if only to point you in the right direction if it were something I (personally) was unable to assist with directly. On the other side of that same spectrum - I'm always keen to LEARN things of interest to ME, and welcome with open arms other Soulies sharing their knowledge with me. Them there Train Spotter's have got NOTHING at all in comparison to the extremes us Soul Music "freaks" will go to in our efforts to sate that thirst for ANY and ALL info - regardless of it's 'Importance' ranking !! All good stuff tho'.. Fingers Record Sales Emporium Link to comment
