What a fantastic night! :D

We started with a few drinks on the train down (well it would have been rude not to!) then popped into the infamous Blue Post for a pre nighter drink. Was nice to see some familiar faces aswell as meeting some new ones. Walked round the corner to the 100 club about 10.30pm. Was filling up nicely! :D

Music was spot on all night. Legs are ready to drop off as i was on the dancefloor most of the night! :D

Great to meet Lucy at long last & Mr Fickle Fingers...it was a pleasure to meet you! thumbsup.gif:D

Sorry to anyone whos ears i chewed off & big thanks to Russell who walked what seemed like halfway across London with me to find a shop that was open to buy cigerettes at about 8am!

A special mention must go to Tina & Fudge for making me practically cry with laughter on the train journey home with stories from back in t'day....(no names will be mentioned! :yes::lol: )

Congratulations to Neil & Dolly!! :yes:thumbup.gif

See you in April! :D

Ady, i havnt been for a year well since the hours changed.And also i heard in the banana vine, that the music policy has gone down hill, well how wrong can people be i should've got on my bike and checked it out my self, last night was one of the best nights i ever had since it opened music policy was across the board hit the 4 corners and staight in the middle, the floor was packed all night, all new faces and lots of young people were there which was great to see, i can see them dancing with passion thats what the scene been lacking for a long while id like to use that word again PASSION keep the good work up ady as i know u will.

Please, not glowing reports, I can't take it. Like to say my night in with book and Chinese was better but think you all know that's not true. :yes:

Off to hide from computer until reports die down. frusty2.gif

Sorry Jock but you did miss a brilliant night of music and friends, i havent seen the atmosphere like that for a while at the 100 Club and at 6am it was still very very busy :D

i only decided at the last minute to go after the Lightwater doo and im glad i did cos it was awsome from the minute i arrived at 2am right up too the finish, loads of friends there and made some new ones too so what more can you ask for, oh yeah the music, best i have heard there and the djs seemed to be pulling out all the stops with top tune after top tune, just awsome :yes:

well done Ady a great night and long may it continue yes.gif

In Oxford.. brilliant night, great to say hello to Andy, James, Trickster, Kylee, Billy etc. (sorry i know i missed people out) .. music was tops, hearing and being able to dance to 'Soul Searcher' for me is worth travelling!! soo many good tunes a real great mix and some stuff i havent heard in AGES!! soo good.. brill night, why i dont get down to this more often i dont know, i'll be down again soon!

Brilliant night. Thanks to DJ's and promoters. This place never ceases to amaze me. The only downer was when the lights came on, I couldn't believe it was 6.00 already - that crowd had at least another 2 hours left in it!

Unfortunately couldn't stay long last night as I'd pulled a muscle in my leg and was in agony. However, what I did experience was great. Some really good new tunes played and enjoyed Russ's spot. Congratulations to Neil/Dolly and Donna too.

Great night and great music. Really enjoyed myself. Big hugs and hellos to Billy, Kylee, Ian, Warren, Tina etc. ( I didn't get to meet Lucy - but next time eh!) Think we left at 5:30am and had the offer of a lift but we came back in for some more dancing and romancing for only a minute then left again - don't like leaving that place! Going back to bed in a minute to catch up on some Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. :shades:

See you in April! P.S. - Congrats Neil and Dolly! xx

Warren

Thanks Warren :D I saw you hobbling a bit on the stairs, I just thought that perhaps you were suffering from the effects of alcohol :lol: . It was a great night and good to meet Goldwax, who I actually knew from back in those heady mod days. Good also to chat to Andy about the ills of the world, although I did expect Dan, Stuart or Pete to suddenly pop up and start throwing tomatoes at us. The music was fantastic but I did find the crowd a bit weird, it was the first time I had ever been fronted up to on a dancefloor :yes: - lucky his girlfriend was there to pull him away (for me that is :shades: ). Always fantastic to see Jake, Chris, Roddy and James T. Also liked to see Billy back spinning in the corner. The monty Python haggling sketch was funny when trying to sell a record to Mr Fingers :P . Roll on the next one, although might not make it :yes: I will have to live it vicariously through lookbacks.

Congrats to Dolly and Neil - How Romantic :D

The South Coasters had a ball as usual, great to be on the road with Steve, Jas & Dave again........what a mad 24 hours !!!!........even saw Steve.........doing his best Disco bunny impersonation earlier in the day at the ChiSoul Modern Alldayer, never seen him doing his 'up & down dance' usually the 'side to side' dance !.

Mad dash to London, surreal conversations.............Dave muttering something about Nuns, which I dont think we ever got to the bottom of.........Jas, held captive in the back :yes: beers in the Posts............& then some great music & good times with good friends, great new sound from Butch.........Vashionettes (?) c/up.......massive dancer. Congrats to Dolly & Neil, great also to see Sue Mayfield celebrating her birthday, Derek Jack, Little Ben & loads of others too.......really enjoyed my two sets & you guys n gals were very kind & danced ya asses off in true 100 Club fashion.

BTW great to see the Burnley boys down, hope you had a good time.

All in all a mad soulful weekend, thank you all for making it possible :lol: .

Yea....tell me about it Carrie! Me n my mate were in London yesterday for lunch n a show- we parked at Brent Cross and then had to do the bus thing from Golders Green to Camden (& on way back) that must have added at least half an hour each way onto the journey! Fortunately loads of people in the same boat n most seem to take it in good spirits but I wouldnt fancy that journey every day though! We drove back up to Northants from Brent X at about 8 and were at a soul do up here ....otherwise had planned coming to the 100. Glad you had fun (& that mad girl from Rugby....not that I know her obviously! :thumbup: )

Good mixed crowd, plenty of young hip Londonites enjoying themselves. Nice to see.

Since the new earlier start times have kicked in it's almost felt like the start of a new era down there. Maybe I'm being a little over dramatic, but there's definitely been a different vibe the past few months. Edgier, more exciting. Hard to explain, but it's all good.

Cheers Ady :huh:

Roll on next month... :unsure:

Good time had by all. I thought the atmosphere was as good as I've had on a night out for a long time.

Nice to see everyone, and put a few names to faces.

Thanks for the positive messages I did enjoy the night greatly and you're right about 6 am being too early but I don't think I could handle the 8 am finishes any more. It wasn't my decision but it's probably elongated my lifespan.

I do agree about the drinkers on the floor, not too many but they were a bit dumb, they agreed nicely, complied and then did it again a bit later. Next one the downstairs bouncer will be on permanent lookout (it was a new one this time who seemed mildly bemused).

Now I nearly promised Chris Waterman I wouldn't tell this one, but nearly's not a binding contract. I was standing upstairs in the hallway with Winston and Big John when two people were walking out of the club towards Oxford St. The left hand glass door was open and the right closed as they had been all night. The person at the front negotiated the tricky manoeuvre of getting through a four foot space with aplomb, whereas the person following behind, whom by then I had noted was none other than the esteemed New Century promoter, the aforementioned Mr Waterman, took an alternate and very interesting route. He proceeded to walk straight into the rather solid glass door that was parallel rather than perpendicular with Oxford St, thereby giving himself one of the hardest bangs on the head I've ever witnessed. To be fair, he can take a punch, otherwise by rights he would have slumped to the floor. One of the highlights of a rare old night, I'm ashamed to say!

A well good nighter that was..

Congrates to Neil & Dolly,its nice to see two people very very happy,hope you like your 7" pressie Dolly,at least i know its gone to a good home(a 7" pressie is a record not what you lot of pervs think)! :thumbup: .

I walked in to the Blue Posts pub,and all my scots mates in the bar Roddy,Kathrine & me old mate Melv along with a great bunch from north of the border,suffice to say much ale was consumed in the pub,i even got a beer off Ginger Dave and thats a 1st laugh.gif .Had a call from Dave Rimmer "i'm in a square,wheres the pub"me says get a cab you tight git,and less than 2 minutes later in he walks dragging that enormous bag,good old Dave never fails to show up ..

The 100 club goes from stength to strength.......the tunes played were of the highest quality ALL night,all top notch tunes,but Mr Keith Money is my fav at the moment,pure class and he played "soul Searcher" what a tune!!.

He kept that bloody quiet. laugh.gif He got pissed and made me drive home. And when we stopped at the services, he couldn't understand why he had a cut nose. He thought someone had chinned him. laugh.gif:thumbup: ......Thanks for a great night Ady, good to meet up with so many top peeps, you know who you are. Thanks to Mick H, who halfway through his spot, decided to take it as a personal insult that I wasn't dancing.....so he played a record for me. So like the good person I am, I got up and danced to said tune.....then what does he do, but play one fantastic record after another till the end of his set.....I couldn't get off the floor, I was totally knackered.....thanks mate. rolleyes.gif:lol:

Thanks very much Mr C,

Got home Sunday morning and Marcelle asked me why I had a cut on the bridge of my nose, I could not not give her an answer but thought it might have had something to do with the bump on my forehead and telling Mace to buy his own drinks.

After reading this look back, I can see it was a good night, but I am buggered if I can remember.

Well, another First Class performance from Ady & the gang at the weekend.. it's my fave 'niter anyway so obviously biased, but the place was absolutely electric !! Alive with the buzz generated from the very enthusiastic collective.

The music for the entire evening was second to none !! Some incredibly awesome stuff attacking my welcoming & eager eardrums - Butch.. Ady.. Mick H.. in fact, each & every DJ presented me with at least one offering not previously known to me and all of the very highest quality !!

Add to the mix the familiar faces (some on a weekly basis even!) some extremely worthwhile new purchases & all-round great conversation.. Well !! Does it get any better !??!

Like Ken, am 'gutted' to be unable to attend April's date - due to my booking at Middleton.. but will be back the following - with a vengeance. :D

Keep up the brilliant work Ady.. :ohmy:

Fingers..
