Soulfulswifty Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 2011 DATES Feb 26th Apr 23rd Jul 23rd Sep 10th Nov 19th The Blue Lagoon Portsmouth playing what you want to hear at Hilsea Lido 8pm - 1am London Road, Portsmouth, PO2 9RP Resident DJs Keith Barnes & Mark Swift If you enter the city from the North via the Hilsea roundabout: As you exit the roundabout; stay in the right hand lane. Go to the end of the dual carriageway (to where you'd normally incline right for Northern Parade); but instead double-back past the Shell garage (bus depot), indicate left and go through the bus station (road-painted arrow and sign to 'Lido'), then turn left (watch out for exiting buses or coaches); cross into the service road for the Blue Lagoon venue. There is ample parking space Link to comment
Guest jsmeds Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Nice one guy's ! Glad to see this event confirmend for next year . Looking forward to november's (27 th ) installment. Really enjoyed last weeks session ( best numbers so far ). We had dragged a few new faces along to saviour the soul scene so thanks to the dj's for accomodating them in thier choice of sounds. By all accounts they will be back for more. On a negative side a few people had commented the dance floor (which is normally very good) was not up to it's normal standard, a bit on the sticky side ! As talc is not permitted a bit of attention to the floor may be needed for the future So guy's thanks for your efforts and giving us a quality soul night we dnt have to travel far for. ie blackpool weekender in a fortnight Link to comment

Guest jsmeds Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Totally agree always an excellent dance floor.Prehaps there was an event the previous evening and the floor had not been kept to it's normal standard. As for being near the bar ,that's fair comment . But we were there early and it was, id say like it from the start. I think we should suggest to kieth and mark to get some " SCRUBBERS IN ":D THE FLOOR AT THE LAGOON WAS ALWAYS EXCELLENT BUT THE BAR BEING ALONGSIDE DOESNT HELP GLAD YOU HAD A GREAT NIGHT AND WITH VHRIS THORLEY SPINNING A FEW TOONS AT THE NEXT ONE ITS GONNA BE ANOTHER ONE REGARDS MOLDIE Link to comment

I think we should suggest to kieth and mark to get some " SCRUBBERS IN ":D did you actually leave the bar area? the floor should be checked when the promoters do the setting up and sound check...clean water used as just mopping up just spreads the stickyness about..there will always be accidents though when i used my old venue in late 99 i had to go in on the sunday...scrub the floor..mop it then reseal it and polish it...it took over 2 hours and the mess wasnt all from the soul night...2 dart boards at end of dancefloor didnt help regards moldie Link to comment
Soulfulswifty Posted October 31, 2010 Author Share Posted October 31, 2010 Thanks for your comment glad you enjoyed yourselves, with regard to the floor we had comments last time about how slippy it was! so Keith asked them not to polish the floor this time. anyhow we will do our best to get that perfect floor it is a shame that the bar is close to the floor which doesnt help. see you in November when we have Derek Meads and Chris Thorley keeping you dancing Cheers Mark Nice one guy's !
