Are pleased to announce

The First Autumn Northern & Rare Soul Weekender

15th to 17th October 2010

At the Scarborough Spa Complex, South Bay, Scarborough.

Following the successful sell-out soul nights and all-dayers at the Riley Smith Hall in Tadcaster and by talking to YOU the dedicated loyal Soul fans we realised there was a demand for a Weekender reflecting the true roots of the Northern Soul Scene in the Autumn months.

At the present time and looking around the soul calendar most weekend events at this time of year are aimed at the more commercial end of the soul spectrum. Most of the people we have been meeting and talking to want to keep to the true roots of our scene, much in the vein of what has been achieved musically at both the Riley Smith Hall and the York Soul Club. Capacity crowds prove the demand is there when something is done right and reflects the true mood of the crowd and scene in general.

Scarborough has a rich history on the soul scene and many famous venues have come and gone since the Mod days of the early 1960s. The venue we have chosen-The Spa Complex-has even played host to all-nighters and all-dayers in the recent past. In choosing the Scarborough Spa we will have the flexibility to adapt the event as it grows year on year.

2010 will see the inaugural Weekender over the weekend 15th to 17th October, this will be in 2 rooms. The main floor will feature Classic Northern Soul and current floor-fillers, with the emphasis on quality original tunes spun by a selection of DJs who have in depth knowledge and experience to keep the dancers happy!

With the fabulous dance floor superbly maintained, this is an ideal venue for dancing in comfort with space to really move your feet (the venue currently hosts several professional dance events and regional heats for Ballroom championships).

As with Riley Smith and indeed York Soul Club our second room is given over to a "Freestyle" theme, this will included Rare and underplayed sounds through to 70s and Crossover sessions throughout the weekend. You'll never know what you are going to hear next with the emphasis being place on original records and quality Djs with the depth in their collections to play something a little special.

 

Tickets are priced at just £25 and details on how to purchase them will be available very soon, along with the confirmed DJ line up. We really think the timing of this event offers a great opportunity for a weekend break on the lovely North Yorkshire Coast, just before the clocks go back and the winter gloom starts to set in!

Capacity at the 2010 weekender will be approximately 1,500 so the whole weekend will have a nice intimate feel about it and the town has excellent Road and Rail links.

A lot more to follow, but we thought we would share the good news with you all and give you something to really look forward to for next Autumn.

 

Yours in Soul

Tony & Tracy , you've summed it up beautifully - taking the North Yorkshire Soul Club to the seaside along with the musical ethos of the Riley Smith Hall & York Soul Club will be an Autumn soul heaven.With The Spa complex having undergone a massive refurbishment, whilst retaining that Victorian ballroom grandeur, makes for a stunning weekender thumbsup.gif

Hi Tony,

Scarborough is known for being famous as the home of the Scooter Boy, and the soul scene here has recently been put back on its feet.

I am suprised you didn't mention anything about a weekender here in Scarborough last Riley Hall when we saw you!? reading your proposals for a Weekender here in Scarborough was like reading a polaticians draft typed up by two soliciters, only joking Pat.

We have managed to build up a healthy scene here these days and have a selection of DJs that have in depth knowledge that are providing Scarborough people with 'happiness' playing our rare and classic original vinyl at the Scaboro' Northcliffe Golfclub. We dont advertise on S.S as we sell out tickets for are soul nights fast within the town itself, through word of mouth.

We would welcome any part in helping the N.Y.S.C. for the Weekend.

Best of luck from Scarborough Soul Club, , we will try to not double book and clash any dates with you guys parachuting in.

Jock.

Would second that Jock, have got some good knowledgeable Soul people in Scarborough as well as a thriving Scooter Community. As Jock says Northcliffe Golfclub is a nice venue for soul music, can just imagine what it would be like with summer soul with those views over the north bay thumbsup.gif

Hi Rob,

We are expecting to see the first proof copies of the flyer!!, please get intouch if you would be interested in helping with the distribution as and when they are ready ( approx 2 weeks easter weekend)

Tickets will be available soon @ £25.00 and our website will be up and runningto correspond with the flyers, again a couple of weeks time.

We have contacted most djs and still have a few calls to make.

Thanks for all the brilliant feedback we have been recieving regards this weekender, it seems to me that we are right in putting together a Northern and Rare Soul weekender in the autumn escaping the usual commercial dross that attracts the Divs that attend those events.

Also thanks for all the kind words and encouragement we have been recieving so far, please keep them coming. "ITS GOING TO BE MASSIVE"

All the best Tony and Tracy

GREAT VENUE, NEVER VENTURED OUT OF THE MAIN ROOM LAST TIME I WAS THERE. HEARD THAT THE OTHER ROOM WAS SMALL SO AM GOBSMACKED THAT THIS IS 1500 CAPACITY - AM WONDERING IF THIS IS GOING TO BE LIKE WHITBY USED TO BE. YOU GET IN EARLY GET A GOOD TABLE AND THERE'S FIVE OR SIX ROWS DEEP STOOD ON THE DANCE FLOOR. NOTHING WRONG WITH A PACKER OF COURSE BUT PERSONALLY DO LIKE TO SEE THE DANCERS ON THE FLOOR.I'M TALKING ABOUT THE OCEAN ROOM HERE.

Capacity crowds prove the demand is there when something is done right and reflects the true mood of the crowd and scene in general.

Scarborough has a rich history on the soul scene and many famous venues have come and gone since the Mod days of the early 1960s. The venue we have chosen-The Spa Complex-has even played host to all-nighters and all-dayers in the recent past. In choosing the Scarborough Spa we will have the flexibility to adapt the event as it grows year on year.

2010 will see the inaugural Weekender over the weekend 15th to 17th October, this will be in 2 rooms. The main floor will feature Classic Northern Soul and current floor-fillers, with the emphasis on quality original tunes spun by a selection of DJs who have in depth knowledge and experience to keep the dancers happy!

With the fabulous dance floor superbly maintained, this is an ideal venue for dancing in comfort with space to really move your feet (the venue currently hosts several professional dance events and regional heats for Ballroom championships).

As with Riley Smith and indeed York Soul Club our second room is given over to a "Freestyle" theme, this will included Rare and underplayed sounds through to 70s and Crossover sessions throughout the weekend. You'll never know what you are going to hear next with the emphasis being place on original records and quality Djs with the depth in their collections to play something a little special.

 

Tickets are priced at just £25 and details on how to purchase them will be available very soon, along with the confirmed DJ line up. We really think the timing of this event offers a great opportunity for a weekend break on the lovely North Yorkshire Coast, just before the clocks go back and the winter gloom starts to set in!

Capacity at the 2010 weekender will be approximately 1,500 so the whole weekend will have a nice intimate feel about it and the town has excellent Road and Rail links.

A lot more to follow, but we thought we would share the good news with you all and give you something to really look forward to for next Autumn.

 

Yours in Soul

GREAT VENUE, NEVER VENTURED OUT OF THE MAIN ROOM LAST TIME I WAS THERE. HEARD THAT THE OTHER ROOM WAS SMALL SO AM GOBSMACKED THAT THIS IS 1500 CAPACITY - AM WONDERING IF THIS IS GOING TO BE LIKE WHITBY USED TO BE. YOU GET IN EARLY GET A GOOD TABLE AND THERE'S FIVE OR SIX ROWS DEEP STOOD ON THE DANCE FLOOR. NOTHING WRONG WITH A PACKER OF COURSE BUT PERSONALLY DO LIKE TO SEE THE DANCERS ON THE FLOOR.I'M TALKING ABOUT THE OCEAN ROOM HERE.

IF YOUR TALKING THE GRAND HALL OF COURSE, THEN THAT'S A DIFFERENT MATTER, IT'S MASSIVE. thumbsup.gif

My mum and Dad met at the Scene (i think) in 1967.....LOL

Chris

Kinell Chris, Scene 1 & 2 on Aberdeen St. Think there was a bit of a buzz in the media about them having Female DJ's which was a bit of a novelty at time ?
