is there much goes on in sunny south Wales ?

Watch this space!! Growing. James Parker runs the Cafe A Go Go nights once a month at the Promised Land bar which are mixed around Mod-related music generally so lots of ska but a lot of Northern and R&B too. Nigel Graham runs the Porthcawl 60s nights at the wonderful Pavilion on the seafront which again are a mixture of Northern oldies, Motown, club soul and a dash of ska - Sean Chapman is resident. I hear they are opening a second room for these events which will be more full on Northern and rare soul. There was a do on in Chepstow a few weeks ago but wasn't able to get to that so can't comment.
