Guest Brett F Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) Gotta' say Martin that i think anyone who wants to go, ought to start buying their tickets now, because the amount of folks i know, who want to attend, is going through the roof . I know i'm in the 70's room but i'm looking forward to both days and both rooms (Hell i'm open minded, and i may even listen to your cd's Mart ), the 70's room has echoes of the outstanding Morecambe weekender, and with the addition of Mr Hampsey it really is the icing on the cake for me, the last time i saw Sean H was at Soul Essence and he played some blinding soul music. By the way i'm off to Pisa this week for Jamies Hartford's wedding and i'm even playing vinyl on the Saturday night, so that will be a good run up to this event, and not forgetting the Manchester lads Paul B and Liam have asked me to play at Beat Boutique on the 18th July ( Shameless self-promoton......... ) Edited July 6, 2008 by Brett F Link to comment
Simon M Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) Seems to be a fair buzz on this event Martin . Looking forward to checking Colin Curtis and Philly Daves spots but Im glad Im missing Dewsburys . I have been consigned to the top room , where I will play 70's and a few 80's spins Simon Edited July 6, 2008 by Simon M Link to comment

Gail Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Morning, Just a nudge to say that if you're wanting tickets, please buy them from the Just Giving link sooner rather than later, preferably before friday as we'll be on our way then (although we will check on late donations/tickets). There's a chance we might have a few left on the door but if you want to guarantee entry pre-bought tickets are the way to go. If you can't make it and would just like to make a donation that would be very appreciated too. https://www.justgiving.com/essentialmodernsoulparty Thanks Gail Link to comment
Cunnie Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 Travel information for the weekend. If you are driving to the EMS party please read the following travel information. The main route into Sheffield is the Sheffield Parkway that starts at junction 33 on the M1 motorway. Head down the Parkway until you see signs for the 'Inner Ring Road'. Follow the inner ring road & head towards the university/hospitals. After about 1 mile you will go up a hill called Netherthorpe Road. You will know when you are on this as the Sheffield Supertram runs in the middle of the dual carrigeway. At the top of the hill you will come to Brook Hill roundabout. At the roundabout turn left (1st exit) onto Brook Hill. Head down Brook hill for about 200 yards & take your 2nd right onto Mappin Street. At the end of Mappin Street turn right onto West Street. Head along West Street for about 100 yards & Regent Street & Qube is on your right. THIS IS THE IMPORTANT BIT. If you are using sat nav TURN IT OFF as the inner ring road has only just opened & will not be on your sat nav. Your sat nav will probably send you on the old roads & these now have bus gates on them & you will be fined if you go through them. Sounds complicated but it's fairly easy & if you type Regent St Sheffield into Google Maps you'll see what I mean. Will post parking info later. Mart... Link to comment

Hi Jocko, Victoria station shut 30 years ago mate You will come into Sheffield Midland & it's about a 10 minute walk away. When you leave the station head along Sheaf St to Park Square roundabout & then along Exchange Place & you'll see the Victoria hotel on your right at the top of a long driveway. Best way to get to Qube from the Victoria is on the Sheffield Supertram. Catch a tram heading to Middlewood or Malin Bridge & get off at West Street & the Qube is a bit further up the road on your right opposite Nirmals Indian restaurant. Link to comment
