Just to say thanks to everyone that came along! To our guest DJ's for the night, Woody, Dave, and Len, thanks for some great tunes!

I guess due to the foul weather we didn't have our usual late comers so numbers were slightly down on our last 2 but judging by the dance floor everyone seemed to have a great time.

Ash and Chad did really well for 2 young lads playing for the first time imho.I'm sure this is just the start of a great future for them.

Jem and myself are now taking a well earned rest (apart from a few guest appearances here and there). We will be back at the Pembo in October when we will be changing to a Saturday night! We have booked a few dates into next year and will post these up along with DJ line ups shortly.

Again guys, thanks to all of you for making this venue one of the biggest and best in the county.

Cheers, Steve.

It was nice to meet you last night Tabs, I hope you and your crew had a good time! If you didn't, it was your own fault cos the music was excellent! :yes: Well done to all the DJ's especially young Ash on his first DJ spot! :P

It was good to meet you as well my friend.

What a cracking night.

A superb mix of sounds from ALL the DJ's.

I just thought all the DJ's complemented each other with their varied playlists.

I don't know about singing this morning I was singing along last night, but I'd never describe my voice as a laark. :thumbsup:

Definitely a venue I'll be coming back too.

Very nice to meet and chat with Mr and Mrs Soul and Dave and his soul widow!

Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

For those who want a top class night this is an event I'd recommend without hesitation.

Well after a stern pep talk from Mr.Dave Rimmer last night i have taken his advice and ended my recent sabatical from Soul Source....whats that boo hiss :thumbsup: ...enough already.

Anyway to matters in hand, firstly big thanks to Dave, Woody and crew for making the trip down to Northants again ( you guys certainly cover some miles) ..what can i say! cracking tunes from you both and a pleasure to have you at the Pemberton for the first time....Lou we didnt get to play the you know who :yes: track did we...how are you feeling today? heard you had a bit of a moment last night hope all is ok and you are well.....Woody was great to hear you playing Hytones ( know it meant a lot to ya mate)

Also thanks to Len Dopson, returning to DJ. for a second time at the Pembo, why he,s so popular i just dont understand :D ....seriousley thanks Len lovely spot with a great mix of real SOUL. nice to hear you playing one of your latest purchases Kell Osborne- Quicksand...top tune :P

Young Ash & Chad...great debut spot guys...worked the floor well early on with some great tunes..TWO LOCAL YOUNG LADS 18 & 27 respectively, how refreshing is that :yes: .. they will definitely be back !!...the only depressing part is that there combined ages still make them younger than Steve Brown....how old do you feel mate :( ....talking of the Great Mr. Brown...well done Sir! a great early spot that practically wrestled the floor into action....with the likes of Pat and the Blenders etc. (when are you gonna turn that record over mate) :yes:

All in All a great night i thought for those that attended even if a little low on numbers for various reasons including those bloody rainstorms, think the final count was about 160ish but as Steve has already mentioned think the change to Saturdays for future events will help......like Steve I am looking forward to a summer break now ...but look forward to our future dates at the Pembo...we have some great Djs and a few suprises lined up for those nights ....so please watch this space ...and dont forget the August alldayer at the Pembo ( ROCK FOUNDATION REUNION ) .with original djs plus myself as guest and a host of others ....should be a blinder !! :thumbsup:

WELL!!!!!!

so impressed with this venue, its a fabulous building, massive, and I mean massive dancefloor, I personally think this is going to take off big style, well worth the journey, we just managed to catch the young lads end spot, and they played some really good stuff, we should all encourage these youngsters, we need these type of guys to come to our scene, they can carry on where we left off....I had a fab nite, the music was good, a real mix, and not 100 mile an hour stuff all nite, was nice to see everybody dancing to the Hy-tones!!!

My moment? I have them quite often, and there not drink related!!!

its my leg that pains me, and yes , wanted to play that record, woody needs to keep out my box!!!

great to catch up with mAArk, sorry I patted your head LOL. and lovely to meet TABS, a real soulie!!from the old school, like me.

so yeah!! stick my neck out, this is gonna be a big big venue, got so much potential, and could make a real good niter???? see you all June 2nd I hope.

Great to hear you had a fair turnout , we had a recent storm at are last brisbane gig & it effected are numbers down to 52 .

I would like to ackowledge Jem in all the brilliant surport handing out flyers ect , ect for the coming up Alldayer re union bash on August 5th & my excuse to celebrate my 50th in my home town , born & grew up in Rushden , ya don't forget where ya come from & dam proud of it.

The dj roster was done 12 months ago and at this stage they are all as advertised except for one inclusion due to my sun bleeched & fosters induced excuse for a brain ,i emitted a very important part of the rock , so Antony ( tank) Horne will also be d'jing ( my apoligies mate).

One lad who sadly is no longer with us Russell ( rugg) Bowers records will be spun by anorther local lad in respect of what a brilliant dj Rugg was in the days of the rock.

All profits will go to the M.S Society so i am really hoping for a good turn out . regards John

Said it before so I won't labour the point but what a great night.

The crap that went on a few weeks ago about Northamptonshire being a vipers nest is just that.....total crap.

For a really friendly up for it crowd there's few places that can beat it

In no particular order, Woody, Len. Dave and the young 'uns played some blinding spots.

Mrs Soul's review says it all.

If you have the oppourtunity then please get there, you won't regret it.

PS Len - I'm holding you to our deal :thumbsup:

PPS When I meet you Del I'll give you a hug.

I promise it won't be rib breaking experience!

Hope you are feeling better soon.

I'll just add my thanks for a great night as well. Great venue, good crowd, and big thanks to Len for selling me a record for £30 and a pint of lager, because I've just seen someone else selling a copy on SS for £125 :thumbsup::thumbsup:ohmy.gif:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Nice to see you back on here Jem, at the end of the day, it's only a night out and not worth getting wound up about. Do what you do, and let others worry :thumbsup:

Hi Tabs , thanks for the plug :ohmy: glad you had a good time and ref. your other comments...spot on could'nt agree more...enough said :rolleyes: forgetting my obvious bias as i co promote this event in my view and others that have attended the Pembo i think that it is the perfect place for a large soulnight...just seems to have the right feel about it ...if that makes sense!....of course you need the numbers but we have had as many as 250+ in the place and theres still been room on the dancefloor....nice to really let rip on the floor and not bump into any one :dance: sometimes...anyway thanks for your support hope you can make the next one.......ps. my apologies to those that made requests in my spot at the end that i didnt play....just could'nt get them all in which was a shame cos. some were personal faves as well...sorry :thumbsup:
