Cunnie Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 Have just found out that all the rooms at the Ramanda Hotel are sold out (81 rooms I think). Will post details of another hotel just across the road as soon as I have them. Tickets for the event are also selling very very fast & will be sold out shortly. Simple really - Leave it too late & miss out on the Modern event of the year. If you were at the last one 2 years ago you'll know what I mean & if you weren't get booking now to see what all the fuss is about. Paypal link in Paul's post above for ticket purchase & remember ALL the money raised over the weekend goes directly to the MacMillan cancer support trust. What on earth are you waiting for???

Gail Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 A quick bump on this, the tickets are selling very quickly for this event so if you'd like to come I suggest getting them sooner rather than later from https://s2.excoboard.com/ems/163032/2166373 The nearest hotel to the venue is the Holiday Inn Express, a five minute walk away. Holiday Inn Express BIRMINGHAM OLDBURY M5, JCT.2 BIRCHLEY PARK OLDBURY-BIRMINGHAM, B69 2BD https://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/ex/1/en/hotel/bhxbp The Premier Inn is a little further, a couple of minutes in the car. Premier Inn Wolverhampton Road, Oldbury, West Midlands B69 2BH https://www.premierinn.com/en/hotel/OLDLAK/birmingham-oldbury?CMP=KNC_Gb Look forward to seeing you there. Gail Link to comment

Gail Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 We have one final pair of tickets up for grabs as a competition prize this weekend. If you want to be in with a chance of winning them please tune into Soulboys Sundae, https://www.starpointradio.com/, on Sunday between Midday and 2.00pm. Good luck! Link to comment
Gail Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 We have a very small handful of tickets available for the weekend so if you'd like to come along please get in touch by emailing emsmoderators@yahoo.com . The hotel have also had a couple of room cancellations so if you're interested in staying at the Ramada please ring Kate on 0845 8387316 . It would be best to confirm tickets before booking at the hotel as hotel residency does not guarantee entry. Thanks Gail Link to comment
Daved Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 It was excellent. A total success all round. Pity I can't get on there and say it directly. Link to comment
Gail Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) It was excellent. A total success all round. Pity I can't get on there and say it directly. Hi Dave, It was, wasn't it? :o) EMS is working again fine in Firefox now so you should be able to post there as well. Not too sure what's causing the problems in IE and Chrome. Thanks Gail Edited July 5, 2010 by Gail Link to comment
Daved Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) Thanks to The EMS Moderators for putting this on and for the huge effort on making it such a success. Here's what I played on Friday. Some of my favourite female singers mixed in with some new stuff and a short tribute to some of the EMS members who didn't disappear after promoting their CD and have joined it. It would be great if they could come over next year. Not Around - Trina Broussard I'll Be Your Everything - Ann Nesby You Can't Run From My Love - Stephanie Mills Stay Free (Din's Club Mix) - Ashford & Simpson Always There - Side Effect Movin On - GD & The Big J Tribute to Artists who are EMS Members Lead the Way - James Day Making Love - Cool Million Ft.Jeniqua Thank You Lord - Sir Wick Surrender - Adriana Evans I'm Still In Love - Teena Marie Bad Habit - Full Flava feat Kelli Sae So Strong - Jonathan Butler The Cure - Lalah Hathaway & Rahsaan Patterson Never Say - Never Woody Cunningham Edited July 8, 2010 by daved Link to comment
