Bristol Sunday Splash of Soul Sessions
A quality afternoon of soul as always. It was great to meet up with everyone, the Dj's did us proud with records that kept the dancefloor busy throughout the day. Always a really friendly atmosphere and the residents have some great tunes, also to top it off the superb Jon Drake and his wonderful box of tunes, well done to you all for making it a day to remember! If you haven't been before try to get to this event - a great way of dancing your Sunday Roast off! - many thanks!

GLASTONBURY SOUL CLUB
I really enjoyed the night at the Glastonbury Soul Club. Peter, Paul, Liz and Julie, have a great club here and if you haven't been before, I would recommend it. The sound System and venue is really good and the music played by Peter, Paul and the guest Mr Paul Fradley (Fradders) was very varied and the dancefllor was kept busy. These guys have a great knowledge and it was a privelige to hear their sets. I heard a number of tunes I hadn't heard before that were very good alongside the tried and trusted. With all this the bar prices were reasonable and the bar staff very helpful - It was great to meet up with old friends and new - keep up the great work and I will hope to get to more great nights in this wonderful part of England. Thankyou all.

Soul Mafia, northern soul alldayer,
A great event as always, well organised by Frank, Rico, Gilly and Rebecca. Top music throughout in both rooms with something for everyone. The sound system was top draw and well done to Glynn & Lorrie for making the dancefloor even better. The bar staff are always really friendly and efficient, didn't have to wait at the bar as it was really well run with also some nice food on offer. If you haven't ever been, please give it a go as you will not be disappointed- thanks to everyone who made it a night to remember!

SAUNDERSFOOT SOUL WEEKENDER

Well done Pauline and the team for a wonderful weekender in a beautiful part of the country. If you haven't been yet I recommend it with a great selection of music from all the dj's. All for a good charity- the weekend is made better with the venues being top class - on the Friday in the hotel with a Motown evening and on the Saturday in the main hall in Saundersfoot. Many thanks and hope to see you all again soon. -
WEST WILTS SOUL CLUB
A wonderful night and so well attended by people who travelled great distances to be there. It was great to see old friends and new and so well organised by Tim and Katie. If you haven't been before the venue is spaceous with a large carpark (however you must put your vehicle registration in at the bar), also a reasonably priced bar with very helpful bar staff. It has a great dancefloor and Tim and Katie are always investing in the sound system that is always improving. Pete and Cathy Lyster were the guests and Pete played a wonderful set of records that I can only dream of ever owning or finding! He has one of the finest collections in the country and to hear these records was a real privilege. The dancefloor was packed. Rob, Stuart, Tim and Katie also played some wonderful tunes and kept the dancefloor busy throughout. Here's to many more great nights at the venue and more to the charities involved - here's to all that made it a night to remember! go to the top of the class!

Newquay Northern Soul Weekender 2023
until
As always Sara, Dean and the Soul on Wax team did us proud again. This weekender is a wonderful get together of like minded souls who like a cross section of soul music over many genres. Two rooms to give everybody a choice of tunes they would like to hear. The sound system and venue is great as is the town of Newquay and all of its shops and views. A little cold for the sea, unless you have a wet suit! however the hotel has a swimming pool! The staff are always very helpful and the food is great. So glad we were part of this event and so glad all those years ago Lee Vowles had such a vision to create a social event to bring us all together. We can't thank you all enough for making it a weekend to remember! See you all soon, from Matt & Sarah xx- 3 comments

WEST WILTS SOUL CLUB
Another great evening - well organised by Tim and Katie. The Venue speaks for itself and ticks all the boxes. The Bar is run really efficiently and at reasonable prices. The dancefloor is superb as is the sound system. This time we really enjoyed the music from the guests Sara Baker and Dean Carr, a top selection of tunes. If you want to hear more, please get down to the Soul on Wax Weekender in Newquay in November. Tim, Rob and Stuart complimented the guests with some top tunes , across all the soul genres. Really good to see a good crowd of people at the event, many travelling miles. It was really good to meet up with some friends I hadn't seen for ages. Keep up the great work ! with the added benefit that some of the proceeds going to charity. Tim and Katie have planned nights for many years to come which can only be a good thing for Soul Music in the South West. Some great Dj's are planned for the future. Go to the top of the class!

Summer Soul Sensation at the Lawns Taunton
Thanks Trevor, Drew and the team for putting on such a great night. Really good to see so many people at the event and many who travelled. It was really good to meet up with so many good friends, also it was good to chat to alot of new. The music from Trevor, Drew and Nigel was top draw, spread over many different soul genres, the floor was kept busy and the dancers had so much energy. I love this venue, it ticks all the boxes with a great sound system, great dancefloor and cheap bar , well run by the staff, who are always very friendly. If you haven't been to this night try to get along as it is well worth a visit. Taunton is a great town to visit and this night is an extra benefit. We did actually get to the car boot sale on the way home on the outskirts of town but sadly, found no soul vinyl, only Jim Reeves LP's!! next time, maybe, when we get to go to another of Trevor and Drew's Soul events - Many thanks!

WEST WILTS SOUL CLUB
A great evening with like minded souls. Loved the night from start to finish. Really good to see Dave Evison, a true gentleman and top Dj, somebody who has always been on the scene, since I started going, all those years ago. It was a real privilege to spin a few tunes alongside the great man (can't wait to read his book!). Also it was great to hear the tunes from Tim, Katie and Stuart. Well done to Tim and Katie for organising a great night and also to everybody who came, danced and listened. Another one for the memory bank- many thanks again.

The Big South West Soul Weekender 2023
until
A great weekender from start to finish. The promoters Sarah, Dean, Frank & Rico have already planned another weekender here for next year and tickets are selling fast! This one was sold out quickly and I expect next year's to do the same. The whole weekend was so well managed the Pontins staff were so helpful and the accomodation and food were good value for the money paid. The venue was great for the music we love, dancefloors top draw, sound system well managed and the music was diverse keeping everybody happy. Many thanks to everyone who made this a weekend to remember - you can all go to the top of the class!- 1 comment

SAUNDERSFOOT SOUL CHARITY WEEKENDER
until
Many thanks to Pauline and the team for making this a weekender to remember. It was great to meet up with so many soulies in such a wonderful part of Wales. If you haven't been before I recommend you do as the accomodation is top class, with well planned soul events and a great variety of Dj's. The Motown event on Friday was a great way to start such a friendly weekend, with a meet and greet that carried on throughout the evening with some great Detroit Classics being played. Between the events there is plenty of time to chill out with Tenby, just down the road and Saundersfoot, a great place to eat, drink and be merry! The Saturday event was in the larger venue in Saundersfoot that included a wonderful dancefloor that needed no talc and a great sound system. The music was spread over many soul genres and a great time was had by all. Thanks so much to everyone who made it a weekend to remember.- 3 comments

WEST WILTS SOUL CLUB
This was a wonderful night and another one for the memory bank! It is great the club that Tim and Katie are building here and with Ted Massey as the guest, the night was complete. Ted , as you all know, has the most wonderful collection of soul music you can only dream of owning. Ted always plays across the board and introduces us to so many top sounds. With Tim, Rob and Stuart adding to this, it was a 'night to remember'. It was great to see the dancefloor busy with so many people from all over our wonderful land. Tim and Katie have some great guests lined up for future events and I can't wait until the next one, when Taz will be spinning some tunes. It was great to meet up with old friends and new. Keep up the great work and you can all go to the top of the class!

Very sad news, you will be so missed- Gangsters lit up the musical landscape and Ghost Town is so relevant today R.I.P Terry.

GLASTONBURY SOUL CLUB
A great night from start to finish, Really well organised by Pete, Paul, Liz and Julie. The venue and sound system were really good and the bar staff were really helpful. The music from Pete and Paul added to a great evening as did Pete Lyster's and Sonya Fisher's, really varied and they all kept the dance floor busy. All soul genres were played from classics to more left field, and I would thoroughly recommend the night to anybody who has not been before. The night was well attended with many who had travelled and also many local soulies. Well done to all that made it a night to remember - Many thanks from Matt.
