I've had a few emails and conversations with people who tell me rumours are out and about that the Soul at The Birchfield Soul Night in Widnes has finished. I don't know who is spreading these rumours but it is totally untrue.
The truth is we had an issue in Feb this year when a girl slipped on talc and broke her wrist. She then sent a warning letter to the club regarding the use of talc.
We asked people to be a little more careful with their use of talc and everything seemed to go Ok. The girl continued to support the club with no problems as she has for several years. However in May somebody put talc down and the management told me to put the lights on while the talc was wiped up which I did. They then told me to turn the music off while the cleaning went on. I objected and told them the music didn't need to be turned off and if they insisted I would quit DJing there. Well they insisted and I quit that night.
Dave and Chris have carried without me. I have still gone every month to support the lads.
This Friday is the 10th anniversary and I told Dave and Chris I would
return for the night so I could complete my 10 years there and true to my word I will be there.
I've had loads of support from everyone who has attended over the last 10 years and a lot of people have vowed to turn up to make it one more special night so hopefully it will be full but you never know, what people say and what they do are not always the same.
Dave and Chris are carrying on next year and have the dates booked for the whole of 2009. I can honestly say it is continuing for at least the next 12 months but with a slightly different DJ line up.
Many thanks to everyone who has supported us over the last 10 years. I personally have made some great friends from doing this. Please tell anyone you know who used to attend that the night is still alive and kicking and will be hopefully throughout 2009.
