Just a few lines to say thanks to all those who turned up for the first bash last night; everyone I spoke to said they'd enjoyed it which was really good to hear. While I hardly ventured into the main room when I did pop my head around the door it seemed to be buzzing and the dancefloor was pretty much always well stocked which was good to see.

For our part, the 'rare' room seemed to go down really well with folk, due in no small part to the usual quality sets from Joan and Karl R :thumbsup: and my old mate Wayne Hudson who I'd dragged kicking and screaming out of retirement (Pinkertones - go on fella :thumbsup: )- thanks for your support guys, very, very much appreciated!!!

In addition, thanks to the hardy folk who danced for most if not all of the night despite the small dancefloor in the back room; you know who you are but what you possibly don't realise is just how much you add to the atmosphere - these things would all die on their arses very quickly if they were just inhabited by 'chin-strokers' like me so good on yer!!! Also, it was really good to see some 'oldies' folk from next door popping in for a look and a listen - keep on coming!

Finally, really great friendly atmosphere and what I think were top tunes played over the course of the night. From memory and in no particular order, the following were some of the things that I can remember got an airing (add to em if you can remember owt else):

Bobby & Betty Lou - dr true love (T-Rax)

Fabulous Peps - love of my life (Wheelsville)

Pinkertones - it's not the way you walk (Queen G)

Del Chontays - baby I need you (Steeltown)

Venturas - heart of love (Green Light)

Garland Davis - don't worry about dancing for me (Kick Off)

Hayes Cotton - black wings have my angel (Resist)

Strands - breeze from the trees (Tarx)

James Dockery - my faith in you is all gone (Soul Craft)

Monique - if you love me (Maurci)

Bobby Angelle - too much for you (Money)

Royal Robins - something about you sends me (TG Town)

Troy Dodds- try my love (El Camino)

Eptones - a love that's real (Jox)

Debbie & Ladds - dear lord above (Ladd)

Monzas - you know you turn me on (Moon)

Arcades - got to be a loser (Triad)

Jackie Day - naughty boy (Phelectron)

Sonatas - going on down the road (Hotline)

Lovers - without a doubt (Frantic)

Next one will be in around 6 weeks time so if you're up Blackpool / Fleetwood way pay us a visit; think you'll enjoy it :unsure: . Will be advertised via SS, OTS etc etc with flyers at various venues nearer the time too.

A few of the old Hudsoul faves for me in there, Pinkertones, Billy Sol, Richetta Osbourne (stormer) and the recently purchased Eptones - top tune and top spot Mr H. If you're on the next one I'll be down - let me know?
