Thing is Dawn i went to most of the Palais alldayers in the 70's when it was ' THE ' best alldayer venue of that era so when i was asked to guest deejay at the reunion there was no hesitation in saying a big YES and booking my flights and accomodation. I'm originally a Derby lad so stand by my word, i'm also a true soulie through and through. I'm still coming over as i have other guest spots offered to me BUT i still want the Palais reunion to go ahead. I run soul nights over here so i know how hard it is to promote and IF ONLY i lived a bit closer would have no hesitation in offering to help Tracy and Andy with their big day.

Answers on a Postcard please Rob & Karen Hiya Rob and Karen. agree with everything you say, the thing is the venue has been booked, it's been advertised for at least the last 6 months, the tickets are sitting there albeit with the artists name on them so whats stopping someone with the balls, stepping in and running it. I feel the main problem was the possible lack of the full deposit for the venue. Not really the organisers fault, just that the timing was'nt quite right. Don't you think there has been enough interest in the dayer, inspite of who was organising it ?? I reckon there are at least 800 true soulies out there that would attend it. Just over 3 weeks to go yes, so lets see how many positive replies we get to this thread. I don't know what the cost is to hire the Oceana but surely 800 at 10 pounds each would cover it, plus they get the bar takings as well. Common sense ??????????? Be interested in your further thoughts, i for one was really looking forward to it even before i knew they were planning to get live acts. Stay soulful, Tony T BONE. OZ.

Its a lot to take on for anyone Tony, but if EVERYONE pulled together it could be done, however Tickets and Northern fans don't mix, for day events that is, ask ANY promoter on here (unless its the TORCH) and "A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush" as I'm sure Andy and Tracey have found out. A lot of people would have to put their feet where their mouths are so to speak. Interesting though....can it be done "word of mouth & Internet only ?" We ran an alldayer in Nottingham with Richie Pitts a very strong DJ line up 2 rooms etc at Cabaret in the City centre about 3 years ago. WE LOST £500 on the day and most of the DJs took a pay cut to help us out never mind we had a great day !

It is with great disappointment and regret that we have had to take the decision to announce the cancellation of "The Northern Soul & Motown" All-dayer featuring "LITTLE ANTHONY & THE IMPERIALS" & "RUBY ANDREWS" Scheduled for "Monday 13th April 2009" due to circumstances beyond our control... We would also like to add that this was in no way related to any form of breakdown between ourselves & the aforementioned artistes... The non appearance is a result of the cancellation of the event... We would like to apologise to all who have supported us on this venture & in particular all those who have purchased tickets... A full refund will be given upon receipt of returned tickets... please email palaisevent@live.co.uk for further details of how/where to obtain refunds... Once again we deeply apologise for inconvenience caused to all concerned.... We particularly offer our most sincere apologies to "RUBY ANDREWS" & "LITTLE ANTHONY & THE IMPERIALS" Who from the offset have been pillars of support to us... Thank-you Andy / Tracey There is also this e-mail from LA agents SORRY - NO. THE PEOPLE PUTTING THIS TOGETHER COULD NOT COME UP WITH PAYMENT FOR THE GIG. Brenda Collins - Executive Admin LITTLE ANTHONY AND THE IMPERIALS In a message dated 3/18/2009 1:23:21 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, : Hi guys there is a lot of speculation about a gig in Nottingham England around the 13th April 2009 Simple question -no politics or hidden agenda ARE YOU APPEARING AT THIS GIG ? YES or NO SORRY - NO. THE PEOPLE PUTTING THIS TOGETHER COULD NOT COME UP WITH PAYMENT FOR THE GIG. Brenda Collins - Executive Admin LITTLE ANTHONY AND THE IMPERIALS There is the answer in Black , white and RED copied and pasted from an e-mail I received.Nothing to do with the Venue cancelling.

Madmandy Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Didn't mean that in a bad way at all. The 'Dilly Dally' will always remind of Pete Lawson - THE icon. Firstly.... The revolving dancefloor does not exist!(Barry) Rob.. Yes ...you know all the ins and outs of running a venue/event like this and its pitfalls...I consider yourself and Kev Roberts 2 of the most successful promoters in the country who runs successful venues /weekenders where you manage to gather large numbers. Who in these times can afford a loss financially?....not many and I cant blame anyone for not wanting a loss financially, you have to make a little something back for all the hard work put into these events As I stated last night on the other thread ...it has to be this venue...its all about the venue ...then the djs and the people who visited like Tony Dawn IanP and myself to name but a few And yes I did say a promoter with big wallets well done Rob for remembering ..it seems such a long time ago now....I still think it could be done with profit ...without the high profile artistes to keep overheads down I have no doubt the amount of stress that Tracey and Andy will have come under would have been immense and that can be enough on its own judging by the way the threads went I've never seen you or Kev have to come on this forum and explain the ins and outs of a dogs arsehole BEFORE the event so why should any other promoters have to do so?? I will still say thank you to Tracey and Andy who tried so very hard to get this together.... it took balls!!!!! What it would need now is a collaboration between Tracey and Andy and any newcomers to get the fine details to see if it could be salvaged. My advice to anyone who picks up the pieces is play your cards close to your chest until all details are finalised as folks will pick it to pieces before the day even arrives I think it was extemely bad taste of other folks to come on these forums and lay bare the financial details of someone elses event.

Jumpinjoan Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I have no doubt the amount of stress that Tracey and Andy will have come under would have been immense and that can be enough on its own judging by the way the threads went Mandy, I think Andy and Tracey brought a lot of that bad feeling on themselves. They ignored people's questions, couldn't be arsed to come on here and when they did were mighty rude at times. I'm sorry, but if you want people to hand over their hard earned cash, good communication is what they expect in return. After all, isn't that what promoting is all about?

Paul , Jez and myself have been very fortunate in promoting THE TORCH REUNION . Believe me it was a gamble , as we did not know - and had severe doubts at the start - that getting like minded people like ourselves , together again to clebrate the music played at a venue that closed 36 years ago , would be a success or a failure , Thankfully it has been a success , with people wanting to join three old men in that celebration . We are totally astounded that we have sold all the ticket allocation within five weeks of announcing it , and more to the point , we still have seven months to go .........

Dean Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 It's hard to know which thread to leave a comment on for this one. I think lot's of us should take time to draw breath and think through the implications. I've never promoted a large scale event (I would take any advice Rob Wigley had to offer though if I was ever to be so daft as to try) but I imagine the only people who could salvage a dayer without the artists at Oceana/Palais would be Tracy and Andy. I don't see how anyone else could get through contractual agreements with the club management in taking it over, let alone all the personal agreements with tickets purchased under different assumptions. I know they are assumptions and not binding as no artists appear on the ticket. Right now I have to feel for Tracy and Andy, acknowledging Joan's valid point that they didn't do themselves favours on here at times. Talking to them in person you couldn't doubt their enthusiasm, but if enthusiasm was enough then Forest wouldn't be back in the bottom 3! I think it could only be Tracy and Andy who could continue at this late stage with an all-dayer, and how I presume they feel now I would think that quite unlikely. One part of my little brain thinks it could be the best thing they could do for their own sense of esteem, but they'd need the hide of a rhino to start with. Best wishes to them both when they surface . . . . . . and perhaps a sorry to all the people making expensive plans. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Jumpinjoan Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 So you were intending to go to this event (event rather than V E N U E), were you Joan? I was going to go when the Falcon's were on. The event or the venue didn't really come into it. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Madmandy Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I'm sorry? I definitely was going to go when it was the Falcons who were appearing live. When I enquired about whether they were still going to be appearing what I got from Tracey was What do you call that if not a snide post? I posted afterwards because I was asked to by a friend who is not a member on here. If the promoters had come on and answered my questions I wouldn't have had to keep on posting would I? I wasn't aware that only those who had purchased tickets were allowed to post. Joan You seem to be going round in circles.. You have stated the above a few times now about not being allowed to post yet no one has stopped you have they? I havent replied to your posts because I dont have the answers you're looking for. Your posts have come over as a bit on the agressive side at times There are phone numbers and contact details for those who want refunds (your friends) I'm sorry you wont be seeing the falcons if you were looking forward to it.

Steve L Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 OK Steve.. sorry. I am aware that there has been enough shit posted about this event. More than aware! I obviously misjudged the tone of my post. Fair enough Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I was going to go when the Falcon's were on. The event or the venue didn't really come into it. So why didn't you give up on the *terrier shaking a bone* act when it was announced that The Falcons would not appear? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Fair enough Thank you Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

If my posts came across that way it was because people who didn't have a clue what was going on were coming on and posting on behalf of the organisers.

Jumpinjoan Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 So why didn't you give up on the *terrier shaking a bone* act when it was announced that The Falcons would not appear? Errmm... let me see Could have had something to do with the fact that perfectly reasonable questions weren't being answered. If they had been I wouldn't have had to keep asking would I?

Jumpinjoan Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I doubt any "perfectly reasonable questions" were being asked by your-good-soulful-self. Really? So asking whether Little Anthony would definitely be appearing wasn't a perfectly reasonable question? Or whether the event would definitely be going ahead?
