binsy Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Just a note to let everyone know that we have moved venues for our next Majestic soul on the 24th of February. It is a really nice upstairs bar with comfy sofas and some decent beers. I hope we may see some of you down there in a few weeks time Link to comment
Paul McKay Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Blimey I don't think I've been in the Horse & Groom since the early 7ts! Let's hope the weather remains dry - just in case! Link to comment
Kev Moore Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) see you there. Edited February 7, 2011 by Kev Moore Link to comment
Kev Moore Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 That's great news Mark. Same area as well. Best Kev. Hope its a bit warmer. Link to comment
binsy Posted February 9, 2011 Author Share Posted February 9, 2011 hi Lads, I had a look at it with brian and Mark and it was a very nice upstairs bar with some comfy sofas and fully functioning toilets I really hope it takes off as it looks a lot more comfortable than Three Blind Mice. It will also be great to eventually hear Paul McKay play his records at last Link to comment
Tsu Tomatoes Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Is this a permanent move Mark? Do they sell dodgy beers? Will we have to endure the smell of damp?.... So many questions........! See you there. Link to comment
Sweeney Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Comfortable sofas? Functioning toilets? No flooding? You'll be giving us complimentary slankets and Fererro Rocher next Link to comment
Bakersoul Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Sweeny !...anything is possible... As you can see its quite different to the Three Blind MIce.... Link to comment

Sweeney Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Don`t get cheeky. You were "spoilt" enough with the birthday cake last year ! I believe that was for Messrs Wilson and Blow. I'm happy enough if I get the right change at the bar... Link to comment

Bakersoul Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 For The Real Soul People Hear Soul /Think Soul /Dance Soul /Sleep Soul /Talk Soul........................ @ The HORSE & GROOM PUB CURTAIN RD LONDON EC2 (Venue is a genuine 5 min walk from Liverpool st tube) Just a week to go....and soon to a restart one of Londons finest regular Soul nights.. Majestic Soul went about sourcing a venue with a traditional, bespoke, homely feel suitable for the music. In particular this venue is attractive not only for its period features but it has a great history being in this part of London, and is celebrated for its involvement for both sound & stage acts since the early 19th century... Well.... they say a little hard work goes a long way..we hope you agree.. BakerSoul Link to comment

BakerSoul Plus of course it`s a "Flood Free" venue (well at least flood free from upstairs dishwashers ) and it possesses toilets which can be accessed without requiring wellington boots or a boat !! The venue has a nice atmospheric/almost dated feel which us Soulies seem to like. Hopefully we will see a few new faces (and a few "old" ones) to add to our regular "Majestic throng Mark H Link to comment

MarkH Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I`m looking forward to kicking things off at the new venue with the first spot of the evening.

Expect to hear tracks from Ann Peebles, Jimmy Dotson,The Mob, Mckinley Sandifer,Gloria Lynne, Rhythm Rebellion and The Moments among others.

BakerSoul Looking forward to hearing the Kim Tamango played out, as it`s been overshadowed for too long by the popular Funk track on the flipside ( i can still remember picking this up sometime in the 90`s at the record shop in Guildford that Ian Clark managed. Anybody else here remember the shop ?) Mark H Link to comment
Bakersoul Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Allo Mark H Im sure Charlie has mentioned this shop several times but unfortunately he doesnt do computers so we never get to view his response on the Forums....One of the Disco Drug stores i suspect!!... and knowing charlie im sure he was always the last one to leave after a cocktail of Super Stength Lager, peanuts and Corrie Blake "How can i go on" (Capital)!...nothing the average Soul Boy cant handle!!!.... I think the first record i ever bought was a De La Soul 12" and was not allowed out further than the local boots store....Gorr how life has changed...what can i say???did i miss much???haha!! Innocence is blissfull........ BakerSoul........... Link to comment
