The Friendship Soul Sessions

Kingstone WMC

Park Road

Barnsley, South Yorks.

S70 6LL

8.00pm - 1.00am

A night of Rare & Rarely Played All Tempo Soul

Cheap Bar til 1.00am

Great Dance Floor

Superb Sound System

Mark Whiteley & Ian 'Geordie' Johnson

Plus Special Guest

Derek Greenhoff

Well what can we say about Mr G,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

A stalwart of the soul scene in South Yorkshire for longer than most of us care to remember, Derek is currently well known for his Popular Oldies & Motown nights at Barnsley's Trades & Kingstone clubs (co-promoted by Tom & Dean) .

Atracting record numbers and probably responsible for keeping the venues afloat Derek and co have it seems hit the right formulae of musical choice and guest line up to keep the masses happy. Affectionately referred to as 'Two Tons of Soul' Derek and Tom Wheelhouses double decking sets are well known throughout the region and have gained them guest spots at many venues througout Yorkshire and beyond.

However, having known him for near on fourty years I for one know that Dereks musical interests lie much deeper than the tried & tested oldies route, so with that in mind, and also the fact that his record room is overflowing with,what are to me, and many others I'm sure, many many rare and underplayed gems just begging for an airing, we approached the affable Mr G with the prospect of a spot at the Friendship Rare Soul Sessions.

And he said Yes!

So a Very Special Guest appearance, and a musical diversion From the man himself.hatsoff2.gif

Remember though - Not Another Oldies Night! a chance for DG to dig deep and surprise us !wicked.gif

Hope you can join usthumbup.gif

Well can you beleive the first time my mate Mr Greenhoff is on at the friendship night at kingstone and where will yocky be 100 miles away at the blues weekend at skeggi but not to worry because i have been looky enough to have the pleasure of his company at his home and boy as he got some sounds ready for the 30th at kingstone.Like Mark said Derek as been in this game a long time and his knowledge of the scene is as good as anybodys i know and he as some top sounds.Wish i could be there but he promises me he will play his spot back to me the therapy after the 30th.it just leaves me to say have a good un and go with your lugs open you just might be supprised all the best the Yockmiester.

I will be definately making this one .

I , like you Mark , have know " Mr Barnsley " - for more years than I care to remember , and I have great respect for Derek , both as man and as a DJ .

His record knowledge is second to none , hence the deserved standing and appreciaton he has on the scene , and I am sure that what he pulls out of his collection will be essential and worthwhile listening .

Directions for our travelling visitors:-

S70 6LL for the Sat-Nav (may show 'Raley Street' or 'Park Road' depending on which mapping system you have - club on junction of both)

From M1 - Leave the Motorway at Junction 37 and head towards Barnsley, as you leave the motorway roundabout get into the right hand lane, through the pelican crossing to the traffic lights at major x-roads - turn right here - follow this road for approx 1/2 mile - you will pass the Fire/Ambulance station on your left and a large school complex on your right. The road bends slightly left to traffic lights, stay in the left hand lane and the club is on your left just through these lights, turn first left into 'Raley' street, parking in club grounds or on street.

Any problems call Mark 07810-707597 or Ian 07953- 532103
