Yeah I first heard about this a while back but thought it had died a death, so I'm pleased that it hasn't

Rumour had it that Barry May would on the line-up. Let's hope his name is added to the already fantastic line-up

can not wait!!

can not wait!!

Twice in europe in one year Brad, you will enjoy your scottish experience !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

moved to aats

using current as a place for wortwhile news and discussion on current rare/northenr soul

major event news on nighters and weekenders is welcome if launch or a one off or special occasion

however posts will be moved out after a day or so to aats

and then merged into the actual event thread

can not wait!!

Hi Brad

Looks like at top weekend!

Will you be going anywhere else while you are over here?

Having backed this venture for a while and it now coming to deserved maturity, yes I am involved now on a DJing level

I, am told, will be involved in The Shrine and also laying down a well overdue Bradford 90/91 Reunion set. A real Soul event filled with The Dogs Of War Soul Boys that have kept the progressive Soul Scene alive over the last thirty years or so, alongside the Big Boys that we all love to see. A Weekender that, to the REAL Soul lovers, simply cannot, and I repeat, cannot fail to deliver. Look forward to an event that will re-establish many friendships to a lifetime quality soundtrack. Hope to see you there.

Let's see if we can get Phuture Sole's Car Dupree home on time for the first time in ten years. Ha ha. I'm taking bets, he's the worst plane catcher in the world.

Apologies for the dp, on a phone in the boozer.
