Paul McKay Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Have a good one Steve. We can't get up on the Friday but will see you at Radcliffe on Saturday! You should try to get down for the Filthy Soul All dayer at Easter (4th Apr). It'll be a cracker. Link to comment

Hi ya Steve , not gonna be able to make this one just too much on for us old folk that weekend. Expect it will be packed, and rightly so. It's a great venue (if you ain't been yet , take a tip and book a space on the upstairs VIP mezzanine) . The music embraces the 'soul or nothing' ethos hence we really enjoyed the IST night . This time with Karl H, Paul S , Paul G and Tony G guesting along with the residents - it's gonna be rather special (again) Could you post up future dates so we can do some advance planning, not least those bargain hotel prices near.

There wasn't much wrong with the first one Steve, we had a good night out. DJ line up for this looks impressive. What tends to tempt is who's got what in thier box, this looks worth the skip over the pennines again. Busy month but will see if we can get over, perhaps bring the fiddlers too. Best wishes in all you do, Dean. (ps - you two at prestatyn?) Link to comment
