KIM WESTON IN WORKSOP CHANGE OF VENUE
KIM WESTON IN WORKSOP, DUE TO UNFORSEEN CIRCUMSTANCES (like the club owner not paying his bills !!!) The two Kim Weston Gigs in Worksop have been Changed to another venue. THE REGAL CENTRE THEATRE, CARLTON ROAD ,WORKSOP, NOTTS. We could not get both dates at the venue so have combined the two nights into one performance on SATURDAY 11th February 2006. 7.00 pm to Midnight Every cloud has a silver lining and the new venue holds more so the ticket price is cheaper !!! Tickets now £15 each. I think I have managed to contact all those who purchased or reserved tickets from ME, but those who got them direct from the Westgate Club must get a refund from there. Westgate tickets are not valid at the new venue. read more for more... The new venue is situated 100meters away from the Train Station on Carlton Road (A60) close to the town centre and holds 280 seated for the show, plus there is a Large foyer area and seperate Lic Bar where we will be playing Motown and classic soul/northern. I have personally taken on the running of the event in order to ensure that Kim gets paid !! Thanks to all who have offered to help at such short notice, especially Paul, Simon and Andy at the Regal who have offered the use of the venue at a discounted rate, we need bodies through the door to make sure everyone has a good night and that they take tons of cash over the bar !! Tickets and further details are available from Rob Wigley 01909 473915 / 07900 131 119 by PAYPAL (Credit Card bookings as well on this) TO robw@yelp.fsnet.co.ukor on The Regal ticket Hot line 01909 474458 HOPE YOU WILL ALL TURN OUT TO SUPROT THIS GREAT ARTIST ON HER FIRST DATE IN THE UK. THANKS ROB WIGLEY

Northern Soul Movie
Northern Soul The Movie ?? Soulvation ? are working on a full length filum that is a re-working of the 60 min DVD of 2 years ago, John Moore is the producer, the film is in its final editing stages and will run at about 105 mins as far as I am aware contains more interviews, and more footage of recent venues also old photographs etc. John was looking for a distribution deal to get it into cinemas in the |UK its a tough job but good luck to them, Rob Just had another thought on this--wasn't something being filmed in Nottingham about 18 months ago ???

Dee Edwards Of D-town Fame R.i.p
some mystery surounding the cause of death--a post mortem is to be carried out, but it looks like a heart attack after a night out.

Dee Edwards Of D-town Fame R.i.p
JUST HAD WORD Via DAVE WELDING THAT DEE EDWARDS HAS PASSED AWAY AT HER HOME IN DETROIT. very sad news as I had been talking to her recently about appearing at PRESTATYN 2007, her death is a sad reminder that in just over a week we have seen Wilson Picket, Lou Rawls, Gene Mcfadden all die. and non were of a really great age. Dee had asured me that she looked just the same as her Album covers and that she was still at school when she recorded her Tuba outing. A keen painter , dee had left the music business to concentrate on her family in Detroit and seem very content, but was keen to come to England to see her fans. So thats another one we will never see perform, I ve said it time and time again, get off your arses to see these people perform whilst you can they are not going to be here forever ! Rob Wigley

Wilson Picket Rip
Another one I never saw "Live"!, you have got to see these people whilst they are still around. At 64 I would have thought he would have been still performing for a long while yet. VERY SAD NEWS
