See Jan 2024 out in style......

Had a timely reminder the other day. Dave Rimmer has 'booked' a sales table/space for the allnighter ...which got me to thinking....we actively encourage record sales ....but hardly mention it If you've got a sales box...please feel free to bring it....its a tradition that goes back as far as i can remember and beyond that........record sales/trades at those formative allnighters from way back.......decades before t'internet' !!.......is a practice we must try and keep...... All sellers will be more than welcome !! There is always someone who would be curious to see the contents of your box...oooh matron !!!

Last weekend in January.....and a great venue to revisit....fantastic main room boasting a large dancefloor with a unique raised seating area.... giving a 'dancers eye view' on proceedings A real atmospheric room.. playing nighter sounds past and present Also featuring the popular FTMNTC room playing something that little bit different ..... getting peak viewing figures here NB Adhoc promotions from the 3 Clubs Team.....benefitting from careful diary management to ensure clashes avoided where possible PLUS minimal over exposure....on an already crowded 'scene' That is how we roll................ Come and and see us ...

Pondering on which Allnighter to make your first for 2024 ?? We here at the 3 Clubs Stubshaw Allnighter will give you are warm welcome and not to mention an absolute 'smorgasbord' of rather splendid music !!! Not for us a reliance on DJ's with a 'hot box' to play ......rather selectors with 'hot collections' from which to choose from !!!! and take that to the bank !!!

Had a couple asking about suggestions for an overnight stop ...so if you wanna treat yourself ..... All these are within a mile or so of the Cygnet Club venue..with the Lion and Swan just a 30 second walk away !!!!!!!!!!! https://www.reubensbarandbbq.com https://www.robinsonsbrewery.com/pubs/egerton-arms-astbury https://thelambinncongleton.co.uk https://lionandswan.co.uk https://www.visitcheshire.com/.../the-queens-head-hotel... . Alexandracourthotel.com

The 'chaps' are looking forward to bringing a fresh and dynamic selection of music for us......as they share their tastes with the many enthusiasts out there ''Music is the stake in the ground — ‘this is who I am' and this is 'what I like'' There's an 'air of excitement' as we near our first event of 2024 here at the Cygnet Club. This really is an atmospheric venue...very underground in its vibe...with many of those 'nooks and crannies' so often sort after in these 'retro' feel venues .... You really must sample this venue .....so far removed from those cavernous ballrooms playing those oh so familiar oldies on a seemingly repetitive loop......hoping you will be transported back to the those halcyon days of your youth Instead we going where the grown ups go....again !!!! Prepare for the first of our regular Saturday musical experiences of 2024,,with the FTMNTC team

All good I hope lol

4 weeks to go.. we're really pleased to have been able to use Stubshaw Cross Club.... As many of you will know.....its has a long and solid history of hosting allnighters and holds fond memories I'm sure for many of the UK's Allnighter crowd This isn't 'virgin' territory for this club ( worth a quick ooh matron ) On that note I must say we're really heartened by the response we've received from the aforementioned Allnighter crowd...with many indicating they're gonna attend. Your support is really appreciated and vital to the ongoing 'scene'. Don't underestimate your own importance.......................its key to what we all do !!!!! TELL YOUR CHUMS...GUESS WHO'S BACK

A mix of all the very best loved “NORTHERN SOUL, MOTOWN and CLASSIC SOUL ” tracks through the decades. Playing those classic faves all night long !!! TONIGHT !!!!!! dont miss out !!

This Saturday... Step into Xmas and come down and have a boogie to all your fave Motown and Soul sounds from yesteryear Enjoy a night out in leafy South Cheshire...bring your dancing shoes !!!! Still only a FIVER !!!!

DJs - Paul Dale, Jez Jones, Ade Swindells, Keith Goodwin and Friends. This is sure to be a fabulous festive night of all things Soul, Socialising and Dancing in this lovely rural venue set deep in the Heart of the Cheshire Countryside.

THAT WAS A BIT GOOD !!! I did tell you the other day though ''If you have an interest in rare,rarely played, forgotten 'soul' of all types from all eras.......then really dont miss this.....NO I mean it...opportunities like this dont happen every day !!!!!'' Firstly a big thanks obviously go to the main protagonists Butch and Martin (where's he been hiding lol ).....the quality and diversity of sounds that they shared with us.....was certainly lapped up by an adoring crowd........I know we bang on a lot about it....but this really emphasised...ITS ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC ......plain and simple...nowt else..no other adornments....M-U-S-I-C Secondly a barrow load of thanks to everyone that came......Its a difficult journey on a Friday and the M6 yesterday was NOT behaving itself...so thanks for your sterling efforts and intrepid travelling skills...you all excelled I wont namecheck anyone...there were too many ....but you know who you are...I aint seen you for yonks....a pleasure to be in your company WELL DONE ALL ....we think you're great Back to the music....WHAT a selection !!.......fab efforts from the residents also ...setting the tone for the evening with a massive dollop of aplomb......and an injection of gusto !! I'm still grinning....as I bet many of you are..............the most worthwhile use of a Friday night for a long time..... Don't forget ;;.......opportunities like this dont happen every day !!!!!'' One to savour for sure.... This was the final FTMNTC of 2023...wouldn't we just love an encore !!!!!! 2024 dates to follow soon
