Marc Forrest Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 mmmh...with no personal booking duties that night and flights still cheap....tempting...very tempting Link to comment
Yann V Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Would be nice to see you pal!!! Link to comment
Shsdave Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 mmmh...with no personal booking duties that night and flights still cheap....tempting...very tempting Marc, With Solid Hit on the night before with Guest Alex Jones you could make a weekend of it. Not only that but with Va Va Vooms new venue being a couple of minutes walk from Solid Hit you'd be handly based.There's a Premier Inn minutes away All best Dave Link to comment
Ady Croasdell Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 And if you came the week before and hung on till the end of the month (Sorry Dave) Link to comment
Shsdave Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 (edited) And if you came the week before and hung on till the end of the month (Sorry Dave) Ha Ha well it may seem it but I wasn't just randomly jumping on another nights thread. When I spoke to Ady Lupton at 100 club he apologised for "clashing" the same weekend as Solid Hit as he hadn't known that our April night was on the Friday 15th. When this also happened a year or so ago we actually promoted our nights as a joint London Soul Weekend & Ady suggested that we do the same this time around. So with Marc weighing up a visit plus the fact that he is also guesting at Solid Hit December 2nd I thought knowing that there were 2 nights of soul to look forward to may help him decide. There was nothing underhand (not that you were suggesting that Ady lol) in my post honest. If I've overstepped the mark if Ady or Yann want to contact me I'll delete my posts with apologies Edited March 16, 2011 by SHSDave Link to comment
Corbett80 Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 Really looking forward to Kitch, Pete and Dave working their soulful magic on the Va Va Voom crowd. Link to comment

I know mate hence the thumbs up oops here we go again Only went into explanation mode because it wouldn't have been normally acceptable but as Ady L had suggested a double Soul Nite promotion I thought it would be ok to respond to Marcs post.

Parking on surrounding streets is plentiful & free at the weekend. Try Devonshire Square which normally has plenty of spaces. It's just a few minutes walk from the venue & it's also where you can find the travelodge in case anyone fancies making a weeekend of it as suggested by Dave with Solid Hit Soul on the Friday.

Guest Byrney Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Great stuff, look forward to seeing you all!! Had a word with the troops and we're going to get in town early for a bite to eat before the frolics begin. Any suggestions nearby? Nowt too posh mind Link to comment
Manfromsoul45s Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Yes Mr Byrne..Looking forward to a night of fun and frolics. Looks like there will be a few of us. Link to comment

Love a curry - but don't want to be farting and blowing all night whilst throwing shapes. Think we've all decided were just going to go straight on the beer (Julia on JD ) so might conger around a few bars before falling in the door Link to comment

Corbett80 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) !!!!LATE CHANGE OF VENUE!!!!! Hi all, Many apologies, but due to our booked venue Ball Brothers being a bunch of highly unprofessional f*ckwits, we have had to arrange an emergency last minute venue, as they have pulled the rug from under our feet with only a few days left to go. Our NEW VENUE is THE PAPERMILL in Shoreditch (not too far from our original venue) https://www.weloveloc...ll-ec2a3nq.html The Papermill 2-6 Curtain Road London EC2A 3NQ 020 7377 1606 Many apologies for the inconvenience this may cause to any plans you had and we hope you will all still attend as this will be a night of fantastic music from some of the scenes best soul DJs.... Luckily this venue is not very far at all (10 mins walk) from the original one so any hotel plans anyone had should not be greatly affected. Th good news is the beer is cheaper here so it should all pan out nicely Aside from that because of this unforseen change, the night will only be running until 3am, just so you are all aware. If anyone who is planning to come could pass this information on, the VVM team would be very grateful. We will be placing large posters with information on how to get to the new venue outside the Ballsack Brothers gaff in case of emergency. Many thanks!

VVM Crew Just to add to Joel's post, it was a bloody shock & hardly the news I needed on return from holiday yesterday!!!!! Thankfully we have managed to secure another venue which is close to the original, has a wooden dancefloor, has a cheaper bar, has an in-house sound system which I am told is very good although I haven't heard it myself yet, has good transport links plus it has a garden area for those smokers among you.. Will be updating the website & sending out emails accordingly in the next few days. Any help spreading the news would be much appreciated! Hope to see you there, Cheers Ady Link to comment

I am not a fan of the Ball Bros venue anyway so am not unhappy that you have had to change. Hope the "in house system" is well set up for vinyl. See you saturday night. M 1 Link to comment

Geoff Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I enjoyed Va Va Voom very much last Saturday night, and so did my companions, Martin (Rbman) and Sue (Soulperson) from Liverpool. The replacement venue was much better than Balls Brothers imo, and the drinks were cheaper. All the DJs did good sets, thanks to Pete, Joel and Kitch for playing my requests. It seemed that a good section of the 100 Club clientele were there, hope they enjoyed it as much as me. Much respect to the lady with the crutch who was dancing, good for you! Looking forward to the next Va Va Voom. Link to comment
Steve G Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Yes also enjoyed it. Think Kitch and Jopel did outstanding sets. Much better venue than "Balls Brothers" Link to comment
