I would have bought tickets to watch that performance Alittle use can bring all the club together sometimes, depends on delivery and what feeling you have for the music/crowd sometimes.. Like any other art form... Some are smooth as velvet and draw you into the show with the odd word here and there, i like to see passion too in parts.. Others are just out of work bingo callers with a bag of gravel It can look and sound so nice and really add to the performance or it can be Russ Abbot meets Bernard Manning.. King of the mic.... Richard Searling maybe... His radio work would help with this i guess...

Thinly disguised Soul Sam ... Do you really think the production team had heard of or ever seen soul sam .. I will ask the producer/director though out of interest.. I liked the part played by Paul Kaye, as did many others but i can see how he pissed a few off also Thanks for bringing this news of FATJ to my attention... Its been a long time coming...

Bombarding your inbox Sounds like something from a carry on Film... I have had emails from Ray, not pms..

Sometime its not so easy to get your thoughts down in text and things can get out of hand... I was not knocking the lots of good charity work but the antics of a few.. Time to put this baby to bed and i will reply in pms to comments by Bouge/ Chrissie and others when i get a chance, you have valid points indeed, as do many others.. time to close this little baby..

They should call you Sherlock Holmes..

Not one Reg... But so so many sent to my email now and seen in events... The odd charity event was nice to see, its good to know that some people do care for others.... this overkill, the new buzz idea for promoters is just too much for me and other too.. The sun is trying to get through the clouds.. All hope aint lost just yet Rod....

Yes indeed Joan.. Sorry if it seems harsh Winnie.. Its just the way they are put out...

A different section for fancy dress event too.... No..... A different planet please Tin hat on Dave but nowt against these events but its all that headline banner stuff that goes with it... You should have seen my post before the edit

Everytime i click on events there is another charity event Do you think its a case of people who set up these events then get a chance to dj or do we just have so many caring people on this scene.... Not against charity really but the overkill is tooooooooooo much... I want bright thinking promoters who focus on quality music and provide us with quality djs too.. We can give to charity in other ways but keep them headline banners away from me.. Maybe another section for charity events If i did a charity event then i would just include that maybe in a line with all the details.. Not make it the headline banner.. The northern soul landmine charity all dayer headline just don't get me moist..

I will ask Mike then, many could plan holidays well in advance then..

I can get great pleasure at home with a few mates and tunes but going out is for the dancing, thats what i love to do.. Maybe when i can't or don't want to dance anymore then i will stay away...

Just been thinking about tunes that we have heard in our soul life... There are some that you have heard/liked and danced to in the past but you aint too fussed if you never hear them again... They are now as welcome as second attack of vd or thrush... They just got so much hammer and now you realise they aint as good as you thought, you have heard many since to replace them... The second are tunes you have always loved but hope they get a rest because any more hammer will drive you away from them also.. And last but not least.. The timeless records that you know and love.... Some you aint heard for many a moon and then you hear it again and it sounds as fresh and soulful as ever.... Lets say up to 5 records in each of the the three boxes.. I will add mine later after work... Its of interest to many as to what rocks your boat, a classic floorfiller in one club could go down as well as me singing the blues at a clan rally some other place..... I have been on the soul trail all over this country and Europe/worldwide for many years and have been to so many different club nights and heard so many different sounds.. No tune is a bad tune to all, we all read from the same menu but have different tastes for sure.... Lets call this a survey of likes around the soul globe... Would be nice to get promoters/djs and punters from all over the uk and Overseas onto this one.... There is no right or wrong.. You love what you love.... I think the Casuleers.. Dance Dance Dance is like the worst dream you ever had, you wake up with that sweat and fear .. To others this tune will get them moist always... A bit of fun for a Monday... Just one from each, will add others later... 1..VD/THRUSH.. Just a bad memory.. Just one to get me going... Casuleers.. Dance Dance Dance 2... Doggy style... Really really nice but time for a rest now... Robert Tanner... Sweet memories.. 3.. Martini tunes.... Anytime anyplace anywhere.. J.B.Troy... Live on

Craig Charles was at the Hideaway on Saturday...

There is so much going on overseas Blake and we take advantage of that to get around some great places, see culture and have the soul there too.. Gonna be taking many more weekends in Europe too from now on.. Can i also add Swden to this mix... Soulastatic.. quality rare soul 60s to modern.. fantastic crowd.. There is my plug Punky Soulastatic Soul Club since 1998 August 16th Summer nighter @ Jazzhuset Gothenburg. Andy Whitmore UK, Steve Cato UK, Karl Marthon Swe/Us Soulof, Punky, Max + more. 2 rooms, Northern & Modern. www.myspace.com/soulastatic Maybe a european whats on section???? or is there one already Mike, would make it easy to plan trips overseas then.. I would moderate the section if that helps... i know you have enough on your plate..

Visit last year was one of the highlights to me of 2007 so fully wound up for this weekends  event . Here's a quick word from Little Stevie on tickets Advance tickets for the Soul Revolution can be bought from the website...www.soulrevolution.co... Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full

Been playing the Pickett version for so many years before i heard the Luther Version.. Tough call really, maybe the break in Luther track just makes it that bit better but i aint ever been sure... Will play Pickett version out loud tomorrow at the club and see, aint done that for a long time.... Nice topic indeed

George sold out too along with the other boys on the funk forum... The last 25 copies are for sale tomorrow at our Soul Revolution night... Open doors 8pm in the UPSTAIRS room... They won't last much more than an hour i should think, if that... Address and details of night in events talk or on the website.. www.soulrevolution.co.uk Good luck steve

Good point Mike.. Many folk who were throwing money at big buck tunes are now on the hunt for cheaper underplayed/semi knowns etc.. I have always done that because i aint got a choice, don't have the big bucks but a decent size pencil.. So many folk have gone on a mad blitz of cash to catch up and have the so called big tunes, many of them are really washed out as well... I like djs to find there own sound and not be some northern soul jukebox.. And i have heard about the size of your pencil Mike

Fantastic story "So says my heart"...

Message for Dave Moore from a guy down my local.. He aint a member on this site, he runs the No sleep till Corrie classic soul forum... I told him i would pass on his message... Hi Dave I am a local dj in Manchester who puts on nights at the dog and Ferret 6 nights a week, no need for decks in there with the latest dj mix cd turntables.. I would come and play at your weekender if you have the same decks, who needs that vinyl anymore... Just book me a flight, 3 nights in a 4 star, food, pussy and and a bag of marching powder... I have been on the scene since 1967 and still have the same vest from Wigan with sweat stains from the last night there.... I can bring our Vera and maybe a couple more people if you can stick some names on my guest list... I have also done nights at the talc and towel, a very well loved chain pub that promotes real soul music.. Make sure the mic is good quality, i like to give the bastard some hammer after a few pints and some of the other... Can also bring you my resident djs with over 400 years of soul life between them.. No need for hotel for this lot, the only sleep Wednesdays after Corrie and then its the weekend again... As a dj team we go under the name of nine times out of 10... That means we get the crowd moist with our classics 9 times out of ten, ha ha ha.... You could give us a block booking for the next few years if you want, we are really in demand and looking to other well established weekenders too.. Right lets fu£king have it! Don't delay Look forward to your reply and booking confirmation.. Keep the faith.. Black and White unite soul brothers... No sleep till Corrie Cheers Wayne from the Wheel

No no Ken.. I would buy one bottle of water and then just fill up from the tap .. My Yorkshire roots maybe

Good point Ken but a non starter... Without the bar sales they would have to charge about a grand for the hire and then promoters would have to charge 20 quid plus on the door to cover hire charge etc... So many nights have closed down because the bartake was not enough for the management to think it worthwhile...

Time for bed now Swoz.. I do voice my thoughts, most people know that.. I too cherish the internet for people to spread thoughts and let us gain more insight.. I aint ever gonna shy away from something i really believe in, plus i aint gonna sell my soul to the devil... Yes i want truth and justice, important things in my book.. Its just endless slagging back and forth on a public forum that gets people down if its not constructive.. The history lesson you sent me... Maybe we can carry that on in a private chat sometime.. Always out and about or just pm or email me

Its always been around but many did not know about them before the online/ wordwide forums... Some folk are always gonna be like this and wash all the dirty laundry in public.. Have a bit of class ... Yes there are many folk in disputes abouth this and that, most should be done between themselves in pms/emails.. If we all came on here to say really what we wanna say then they would have to bring out the national guard to keep the factions apart... Don't despair, these people are a vocal minority... Toooooooooooo many good folk to let these clowns get you down...
