Mattbolton Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 (edited) When it comes to feisty femme funk or sassy sock-it-to-em soul, mighty Marva Whitney has no equal. Blessed with a lithe yet powerful church-raised voice, she first made her mark with the James Brown Revue in the late-1960s. Such was her impact during that time that she earned the titles "Marvellous Marva" and "Miss Excitement" for her dynamic stage performances. James Brown even went so far as to proclaim her "Soul Sister ..1". See her perform her classic dynamite soul on... Thursday 19th November Doors @ 7pm. Onstage @ 8pm The Hifi Club (formerly Central Soul Club!) Central Rd Leeds West Yorkshire Tickets are usually £11 but they are being offered to Soul Source members at a DISCOUNTED price of £8! To make use of this fantastic offer, simply email sean@thehificlub.co.uk and quote ref: SOULSOURCE. Edited October 14, 2009 by mattbolton Link to comment

pikeys dog Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I don't know if the venue manager is inundated, or just can't be arsed, but I've tried several times to contact him about payment - he only responded to the one e-mail, and then didn't follow up on my response as he promised. I've ended up paying full price online for the tickets, since getting the reduced rate ones just hasn't happened due to poor communication (on the venues behalf) and I didn't want any of my party to miss out due to this...
