coops Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 (edited) july 16th the grand central skegness in the soon-to-be-completed PENTHOUSE SUITE (it's actually called the 'aqua lounge, some call it the 'nocturnal lounge) we've used term Penthouse Suite because everybody and his dog knows that the Penthouse is the TOP FLOOR and usually (and in this case certainly is) the best. this purposely designed top-floor room will, in the near future be used for Skegness' All-nighters and Weekenders but the Grand Central Soul Club is going to be the first Northern / Rare soul night to try it out. join us from 8:00 p.m. until 02:00 a.m. host dee-jays: MICK COOPER SHARON KILNER MARTIN STANFORD and CHRIS ROSE with guests: CHRIS FORREST and ANDY 'TATS' TAYLOR for a well and truly across-the-spectrum night of top draw soul. all this for only £3 access to the Penthouse Suite id via the elevator only (to keep the rif - raf out) this event is MICK COOPERS' last one as a resident dee-jays @ the grand central where he's had the honour of being a 'host' dee-jay since it was the Square Peg and now it's in it's final and permanent home he's more than looking forward to sharing the soul with you and this newest of new venues. below is a pic taken this week of the builders preparing to lay the 'maple' dance floor Edited July 1, 2011 by coops Link to comment

Pilgrimsoul Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Looking forward to finally setting down some permanent soul roots in the Nocturnal lounge which is to be our home.Felt like a traveller moving from venue to venue and room to room but hopefully this will be it and we can relax and enjoy the venue for what it is and put our own homely touch to it in the way of good quality soul music and what better compliment can we give it than to have two guest dj's of the calibre of messrs Taylor and Forrest spinning top top sounds.Not to mention the fact that it will be Coops' last event as a committee member and resident dj so come along and thank him with us for all that he has done for the club and to wish him well in his new ventures.

coops Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 (edited) just been informed by the Grand Central Management Team that there WILL be bag searches on the 16th and NO alcohol will be allowed to be taken into the venue. this is not a soul club decision, this is the choice of the venue management. seems to be the way of the world these days, Brid, Manchester, etc. etc. Edited July 7, 2011 by coops Link to comment
