well what can i say , the night was everything we could have hoped for and any fears about having a do in January were dispelled early on :lol: .we had a great attendance with a (prettymuch ) capacity crowd of 120 in thru the doors and the dancefloor packed from 12 - 3am when the lights went on and the shouts of "one more" started ringing out

Kev's sets were always superb and the DoubleDeck with myself and Bill Kealy worked LIKE A DREAM with us working off each other for 2 hours !!!

for us the mix of people and music is BANG ON and exactly what we wanted when we started the club and to be honest it's a really good feeling when the people leaving the club are openly happy :lol:

It was a great night. Non-soulies (is there such a term as Non-R'n'Bies?) at an event can sometimes be a mixed blessing but everybody got well into the swing of it. I had two young things come up to me at seperate times saying more or less the same thing 'what is this music? This place is amazing!'
