Guest Decroco Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 A small claim to fame from me is that I was one of the last people to DJ at Clifton Hall before they flattened it in the late 8ts. Ray did a Soul night there a short while before the final curtain, which I think was the very last Soul event of the hall... If anyone can back me up on that I would like to know as my memory ain't what it used to be. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
