Looking forward to this, got a couple of people coming from down from Hinckley to sample the high quality music on offer.

Seems ages since the last Capones looking forward to seeing everyone.

Rest assured we'll give the travellers from Hinkley a great big Essex welcome thumbup.gif With guest DJ Moldie joining our resident vinyl monkeys we can also guarantee them a night of top sounds that will send them home happy.

Received a message for Stubbsy g.gif last night, he's currently away getting himself psyched up for the 7th by wrestling alligators in Florida.

Looking forward to 7th If you speak to Stubbsy ask him to bring Peace in the Family by the Johnson Family you will hate it cos it's 1974, but I love it.

No probs passing on your request Nigel, I just ask that Stubbsy gives me the nod before he plays it so I can go for an extra long ciggie break :P

Be good to see ya again Rob, don't think the toxic sock routine is really to be encouraged though :D

I think the bar staff at Capone's have seen most things, but were clearly taken aback :P:Pohmy.gif by the sight of a full pint of beer being "protected" by a certain gentleman pulling one very rancid sock over it :lol:

I must admit it worked though, nobody went near your pint - you'd probably win top prize if you send that tip off to Viz thumbup.gif

Martin, you'll be joining me outside then when that hits the decks :g: Each to his own and one of the great things about our music policy at Capone's is that we leave it to the individual DJs.................and the paying public soon let them know if they get it wrong :) The empty dance floor is an immediate and cruel judge sad.gif

With Moldie doing the biz on Saturday, we'll have plenty of variety on offer and no doubt with Stubbsy on form I'll get plenty of opportunities for ciggie breaks :)

Nigel,

I'll make sure Johnson Family is in the box for you :D

Don't worry about Taffy's comments regarding 70's disco etc :lol:

Sometimes I think his taste in music is same as it is in football, i.e. blue & sh**e :yes:

Looking forward to seeong you all Saturday thumbup.gif

Jon, that's looking more and more unlikely as the texts come through from t'North. With Morecambe playing at Dagenham in the afternoon, some of the intrepid Lancashire crew are combining their footy trip with a visit to Essex' top Soul Night.

They usually travel to away games in the Eric Morecambe raincoat, flat cap and glasses get up, and do the "bring me sunshine" dance. How the hell will we be able to tell em apart from Stubbsy on the dancefloor :D

And another thing................get your diaries out before you come along on Saturday. Check out what you are doing on Easter Monday 13th April, then cancel it :yes:

We're gonna try and get a Capone's crew bus up to the fantastic Nottingham all dayer where Little Anthony and the Imperials and Ruby Andrews are booked to appear. :thumbup:

I need to know numbers this weekend so we can work out costs and stuff.

Mainly busy poolside Martin biggrin.gif

Did have a look in a few thrift shops but absolute zilch - not even any LP's thmbdn.gif

Seems Florida a complete waste of time for records as it's already "been done"!

Cheers Rob, yes we did thumbsup.gif

As it's Carol's first Essex soul night suppose that means I'll have to stick Supremes, or Clarence Carter, in the box :lol:

Some good news for you mate - You may even be back in the blue room :lol: Just waiting confirmation from Martin T & Audra whether they're coming down/staying over!

See you at the weekend :lol::lol:

PMSL. I'd forgotten about John's expertise on the air guitar, we have photographic evidence of that as well ohmy.gif Now that is certainly not allowed on the dancefloor :)

Taff

Where is the photographic evidence :rolleyes::thumbup::lol:

Where is the photographic evidence :wave::lol::lol:

If I had half a clue how to work this bloody Cranberry Blackcurrant phone thing that I took them with, they'd have been posted on here long ago :lol:

I'm sure that John's clandestine membership of the Francis Rossi fan club will be kept well under wraps on Saturday and he'll be concentrating on pumping out his more familiar 100% quality soul sounds :lol:

Not so sure what he'll be playing on the car cd on the way home though :)

See ya Saturday guys.

Sure it's gonna be great. As usual !

I couldnt make orsett last week so ita be good to see you eddie, should have some flyers with your name on for you. biggrin.gif

Been promising myself for adges that I would get to this one, but with Valencia just around the corner, it's just not going to happen this time, which is a shame, as I have heard nothing but good things about this night and was looking forward to it.

Fliers went down really well last Saturday at our place, so you might get a few extra visitors from Walthamstow!

Have a good one guys.

See you all later.

Same here Nige, guests from Morecambe have landed, now off to meet the rest at the Dagenham v Morecambe game. A fiesta of footy followed by a storming soul session at Capones - well I can guarantee the second bit, not so sure bout the first :thumbup:
