Russ Vickers Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) The Boy's Are Back In Town !!! Well we've managed to get a lot of the South Coast Spinners together in one room & confirmed are: Jason Desmond Molly Disco Dave Abbott Steve C Andy 'The' Mann & some bloke Russ Vickers !!!!!. and very special guest James Trouble Tis the first time in over 4yrs that these reprobates have been in the same room together, so expect some fun & games alongside the best soul music you will hear any where. 6ts, 7ts,8ts, 9ts, Y2k Northern, Modern, Xover alongside all the other Funky groovy soulful sounds you can think of too. An absolutely massive response to this, so looks like all of the South Coast Crew will be back together alongside, a lot of friends who are travelling especially for this. Everyone is welcome, the more the merrier, free entry, cheap beer, potential if demand is there to go much later than the 2am licence, seperate indoor smoking area & the very best soul people & soul music you will hear on the planet !!!!!! We want to see you there, to welcome me home & buy me a beer & to kick start the old gang back into action. Edited November 20, 2007 by Russ Vickers Link to comment
