I haven't been out much lately, but I can safely say I will be at this event.

Not even a herd of wild mustangs tethered to my limbs, running in quite the opposite direction would keep me from attending.

Early Saturday aft' K.O. yes.gif

Brett, are we up for this?

Can't wait to hear what John May plays (a.k.a. The president of the Hitman fan club) I do hope he gets a Van McCoy & Friends LP for then as I could be tempted with a jig if he played one of the 5 or 6 outstanding tracks on the LP. Then again I think the Ad Libs will go down well also.

Looking forward to a great night as I can see the potential with the people that attend want the same thing SOUL.

I also think that with John and myself being on that there is life down in the East Midlands for Northern as I was starting to wonder.

This night can't come soon enough for me and I will make sure I'm up there in Manc land nice and early this time (hope to bring a few up too).

Mark

You can wonder as much as you like fella. :D

Just because some of us would sooner travel out of the E midlands than listen to pressings of big records don't mean we can't appreciate rare soul.

One of the very best ns events is held in the E mids... but Lifeline is not in Leicestershire!

Lifeline is only JUST outside Leicestershire and there is the Starlite, but the people just aint going. Lifeline is a great venue and mainly cause of one man Andy Dyson. Andy is someone I am glad to call a good friend and his hard work has been a revilation to the East Mid's scene. Just wish both events mentioned were on every week as I'd be there come what may. Still Soul Or Nothing is well worth the trip to Lancs and the people there have a heart of gold.

Yes, thank you very much, but I know what SON is like... been there a few times, right from the start... and I just about get Lifeline as well. As for the Starlight, and why nobody goes... firstly, see my last post. And you aint really helping by asking folks about their excuses for not attending. :D

Any way... Steve - I hope you have a great night mate and best of luck with your anniversary, not that you'll need it! :D

So glad we'll be seeing the big guys from the North East ....as well as Mark and Dave... and i hope lots more of you lovely soul sourcers.

If you've not been to Soul or Nothing before ..... honestly do yourself a favour and come.

THIS IS GOING TO BE AN INCREDIBLE NITE FOR SOUL MUSIC .... I CAN'T WAIT!! :D

It's such an honour to be part of something as true to soul music as Soul or Nothing is....and staying 'true to your heart' when it comes to soul .... well ... is just an incredible feeling...

Very sorry to say Steve, that although I/we had a ball at the last one I/we will not be able to make it this time. :lol:

I'll be able to swing a pass-out if Baz's bus wants to stop in Huddersfield en-route, to pick up a damsel in distress :shhh:

Hope you get enough in to cover costs - and that its a memorable night :thumbsup:

See you and Lydia soon

Manus Docherty ? (F***K Me) !

We have'nt seen you for about 18 years. Unfortunately Duncan is in Australia and Japan at the moment otherwise we would have brought him down (or not !!!).

How's Brenden these days , and where is he ?

Looking forward to a beer and a bit of catching up next weekend :P

Alright Kev - Yeah it's a long time since I've been back up to the North East I'm really going to make a big effort to get up there before the years out.

Brendan's living in London and still as daft as ever.

Really looking forward to getting together with some old faces and having a few beers

All the best
