Guest sandi Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Poma loved soul music totally across the board, he loved prince philip mitchell, beabo bryson, skip mahoney, lolletta holloway and one ofr his favorites of all time velvet hammer. Not to mention Fire Island remix "shout to the top" just to mention a few. All monster sounds played on the modern scene over the past 25 years. See you saturday folks. Sandi xx Link to comment

Guest Sean Haydon Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Just a quick note to stay that quite a few people are still asking for tickets. Unfortunately we had to set a limit due to the venue capacity restrictions, we have to strictly adhere to this. We do not wish to offend or disappoint anyone on the evening but anyone without a ticket will not be allowed in. Many of us will be going on to the Lifeline Nighter at J11 (Stables). With the DJ line up there it looks like it will be an exceptional night. We'll meet you there after half 12. Sean. Link to comment
Guest Chris Waterman Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I really wish I was not attending this night, but we don't always get what we wish for, so I will be there tonight and raise a glass to a gone but not to be forgotten soul friend. Link to comment
