Another trip up the M6 from Wolves (not quite as bad this time) & another great night...!

Decent, friendly, knowlegable crowd, (it was the kind of night some may have stayed at home & lit the Barby) Great music, Across the board, some modern some r&b a few classic oldies & some crackin northern.

Ok so the dance floor wasn't as busy as it maybe could have been but it didn't make any difference to a good night.

I for one will go back, i'd rather drive the M6 than stop local and hear the same old same old....!

Big thanks to everyone that organised a great night.

and Browny i bet you've still go more to give....lol (including the Isleys)

The whole day was fantastic yesteray Paul , and that was a lovely surprise you being there , it felt almost like Eamon Andrews the way you appeared . You are really a good friend to Nige .

He was gob smacked , it's friends like you that go the extra mile that makes the soul scene what it is .

Can't believe the weather today ? yesterday was like summer in Southport ?

Firstly, good to see the thread starting early, and it is easy to use the usual words, as what a fantastic night, it was last night, but that's exactly what it was. There were a few less people on the dancefloor, at times, than usual, but the music, people, atmosphere, more than made up for it. I thoroughly enjoyed it once again, and lots of records new to me!. As the Spinners said, what more can a boy ask for!. Well done again, to all, I eagerly await the other playlists, till next time, keep on keeping on, all the best, Nigel A.

You and Nige were a great double act Carms. It was a plesure to hand the decks over to you both and of course to pick them up after Pete.

The atmosphere last night was laced with Soul Music in all its myriad and wonderful formsbiggrin.gif

K.O.K.O.

A special thanks to the DJs last night, outstanding sets from John Orritt, Pete Neal and the double deckers Nige and Carms. Hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did, brill music and we hope to see you all very soon! :hatsoff2:

Gotta agree with what has already been said about last nite, another great nite was had, Pete will post his play list when he get's in from work, well will prob get to tomorrow as he started at 9am and only finishes at 11pm, so think he might b a bit knackered well he is twenty thingy now. Ahhhh

Great to see Pat n Cat there too as well as Paul.

The original mental midiget, U know I don't know why he calls me that. Keep up the great work at Burscough Brookesy n Lisa.

It's been a while since we attended Burscough and after last night realised what we had been missing, great venue, friendly atmostphere, and great music.

Hope to see you next month Tony and Lisa when that man "Blunny" and Tony Clarke is on the decks thumbsup.gif

Had another cracking night again last night at The Legion. A real plethora of top music all night, a beltin' atmosphere and of course, the great, friendly crowd.

Thought Pete played a blinder, one of the best sets I've had the pleasure to hear from him, nice one mate. Keep it coming yes.gif

Great set from John Orritt and proof to me, that the guy knows what goes, as I'd heard him play the previous night at the Riverside aswell.

No big-hitters Nige, eh? g.gif Well, Ruby, The Masqueraders and Brice Coefield hit me pretty big biggrin.gif , brilliant tunes and thanks for playing 'em. And a big thanks to Carms aswell for The Enjoyables and The Vondors, lovely. A brilliant two sessions from the two of you.

I'd just picked up me shoes from the cobblers earlier in the day, having had 'em soled and heeled and it was like dancing on an ice-rink. Got a bit of a groin strain today from trying to stop meself slippin' into a side splits, ouch ohmy.gifbiggrin.gif

And nice to chat with ya Paul (owd git) outside during a smoke break. I Like your outlook mate thumbsup.gif See ya again soon.

Can't wait for next month!!

Well done Tony & Lisa thumbup.gif
