Russ Vickers Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Simply Soul music without boundaries. Due to Russ Vickers illness and consequently the postponement of his welcome home party we still have a booking for the venue THEREFORE on FRIDAY 23RD NOVEMBER 2007 at THE RACECOURSE SNOOKER CLUB A27, NORTH HARBOUR, COSHAM, NR PORTSMOUTH (opposite Tesco's and Golden Tulip hotel) A CRAZY NIGHT AT A FANTASTIC VENUE WITHOUT POLITICS, ONEUPMANSHIP OR EXCESSIVE SERIOUS SOUL POLICING (whatever that means) - IN ESSENCE FUN AND SOUL ENTRANCE IS FREE WITH A REQUEST FOR A DONATION DURING THE NIGHT TO COVER THE COST OF THE VENUE (£50) PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A LIGHT HEARTED EVENT ENCOMPASSING A CHRISTMAS/THE VICKERS HOMECOMING/SOUTHERN SOUL MOVEMENT v UPTOWN DOWNSOUTH v SOLENT SOUL CLUB PARTY WITH A FINISH BEYOND THE SCHEDULED 2AM SHOULD ENOUGH PEOPLE ATTEND AND A BONUS FOR SMOKERS BUT REST ASSURED THE MUSIC IS GUARANTEED TO BE OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY AND TOTALLY ACROSS THE BOARD ALL DJ'S WILL BE ASKED TO PROVIDE THEIR SERVICES FOR FREE AND SO FAR INCLUDE: RUSS VICKERS, DAVE ABBOTT, MOLLY, STEVE C AND MANY MORE TBC There is currently no plans to produce fliers for this event and should they appear they will probably be in biro so word of mouth and soul source are our only advertising ploy - this confirms that this is not a serious promotional venture and also, sadly, a way of saying goodbye to a venue which hosted many a good night and is being pulled down at the end of the year. Your verbal advertising would be greatly appreciated. Further info: pm SteveC or e-mail s.csordas@ntlworld.com Link to comment

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. Just to confirm to an already bangin' line up the one & only........... James Trouble wow.......its gonna be a dynamite night !!!!!!!! Edited November 20, 2007 by Russ Vickers Link to comment

Dave Abbott Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Got the headphones out and found a bit of an intermittent problem in the left lugole; but that could have been the washing machine noise from the next room - still, taking no chances and am taking them to work tomorrow to get some re-soldering carried out Link to comment
