Soulchoons @ The Mill Charity Events (Sun 24Th Aprill)

[Soulchoons]

Were do i start with this one. with a lot being on in the north west yesterday we thought we were going to be in for a steady afternoon but it was busy from the word Go! and by 8pm it was very busy. we made a fantastic £670 for QueensCourt Hospice which will help for some much needed care. I just want to thank everyone who travelled far and wide to get over to the mill from the likes of Kent, Bradford, Northhampton. Everyone seemed to have a great time and the records played were second to non. a BIG thankyou to the guest DJ's( Kev Such, Jools Metcalfe, Lawrence Grimshaw and Dave Haizelden) who gave up there time and traveled along way to be a part of the day, you all played top draw music which catered for all tastes. not forgetting Rod,Carol and myself who also helped keep the floor alive right through to the lights being switched on at 01.10am. A massive thankyou to Nick the sweety man who supplied 60 or so easter eggs maybe more which soon disappeared (and i didn't get one). thankyou to Kev and Gloria for making the fridge magnets of which £2 from each magnet went straight to the charity. and last but by no means least Graham for keeping track of what was a very busy door.

I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as i did and hopefully we will see you back on the 29th May for another 12hr Alldayer.

Many thanks

Me and Karen just got home. Sitting in the garden having a beer, marvellous.

GREAT day at The Mill. And well done on the money raised.

BRILLIANT to see SO many in attendance especially as Danny said "There were so many other things on".

Me and Karen had a blast.

BRILLIANT company and the dancing didnt stop till the last tune played out. TOP FORM

STILL think you are wrong about MP3's and CD's Jeff. But as you said at 1am ish this morning we will have to agree to disagree mate.Last word on the subject though. ITS OVO or nothing haha.

Karen was dead chuffed with her Easter Egg and that was a good touch handing them out, but how come only the girls got them?

Great to see SO many people we knew and met a stack more. Thankyou for the RnB Cd Derek, I'll call you midweek mate.

Apologies if my Afternoon spot didnt appeal to all, but we cant play the same in the afternoon as later or vice versa ( as was suggested, haha). And some brilliant stuff would never get heard if we stuck to the same tunes over and over again. Hopefully as said in the afternoon I would try harder in the evening, No tomatoes were thrown, that I saw so hopefully it went ok.

Well done to all concerned and we will catch up somewhere soon.

Kev ( dont do modern) Such and Karen.

Another Fantastic All Dayer at The Mill. In my opinion definitely the best one yet without a doubt.....

Great to see the Northampton Crew and the Corner Crew from Manchester.....

The Preston Crew were once again there in force.....

The dance floor bouncing from the word go.......

Tremendous choons played by all, especially Lawrence & Jools from the Harold Club, Bradford......

Can't wait until the next one at the end of the month.
