We have managed to get 6 of the original DJs from the 'Central'; Paul Rowan (not on flyer, late addition)Tony Jackson Rick Cooper Dennis Billingham Chris Mallowsand Steve LuigiAll of the above DJ'd at the club at various times. with the possibility of more original DJs to be confirmed.This is going to be a priceless trip back to the days when Northern Soul was at it's peak.The 'Leeds Central' ran for 14 years from 1969 to 1983 and was the mainstay of the Yorkshire soulies diet.Many well known Northern DJs cut their teeth at the 'Central', and some of the biggest sounds made their debut at the club. This is going to be an afternoon event on Sunday May 1st, the day before 'Mayday bank holiday Monday'.The event will start at 1pm and end at 7pm that Evening.You can expect to hear nothing but the best sounds from the 'Central' era, in the superb venue where the 'Central' atmosphere still hangs in the walls. The venue is superbly decorated with a top class sound system, wooden dance floor and fabulous decor.This may be your only chance to experience one of the best loved, original venues in the UK, So DO NOT MISS!!Admission only £6 on the door.*Dig out your original membership card for half price admission* Edited April 16, 2011 by steveluigi Link to comment

Northern Soul Uk Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 I will be receiving the tickets, flyers and posters for the 'Leeds Central Reunion' at the end of this week hopefully. I will post the online ticket sales link on here on Facebook and on the event pages as soon as it is all sorted, hopefully by the weekend. Please note there will only be 250 tickets on sale and 150ish places to pay on the door, so don't delay! Also as mentioned above, anyone that has an original membership card have 2 options 1- Buy a ticket to guarantee entry 2 - Wait and pay on the door for half price entry but get there early. There is no other way around this unfortunately as many people are asking me to put tickets on sale. Link to comment
