Def ovo from me, yer get germs from illegal plastic, the genres have been well advertised since last year, right in front of our noses lols so don't understand the question of groups, modern room etc, as btbktf67 says he will be playing a mix, so many great soul clubs and their djs participating,.... the flyer is what is happening...plus a bit of seasoning from seasoned DJs.so embrace! its gonna be fun, ..TEAM work will make this fantastic, we aint getting younger, and at the rate we are going this may be the last mass group weekender for some time, (really hope its not) so lets make the most -

Kings Hall Stoke All Nighter Richard Searling Farewell Ap
Smileys commented on Goldsoul's calendar event in Allnighters
What an amazing electric night, Kings Hall one of 3 places that has brought the shivers and tears to my eyes. Soul and all that follows it can be very emotional, especially as we grow older. I was excited after djing at Nottingam FED club, one of thoses great clubs that are spread across the country. Dedicated promoters, doing it for the love, seasoned DJs, with some young uns been mentored. One young lass Willow did a great set, knowledge amazing top dancer and yes asked me for some toons I had never even heard off, we are never to old to learn. Onward to Kings hall I was not missin -
always a fab night, xxx

Cant wait Jimmy n Mark, I normally get there at the start but due to other already booked family djing commitments wont be there until around midnight. Full apologies, mate. Will be playing one or two for Winston and Simon RIP....my friendship was short with Winston, even Shorter with Simon, and im gutted, condolences to you folks who go back so far.

SOUL AGAINST RACISM - THE WINSTON HEATH MEMORIAL ALLDAYER
Smileys commented on Stretfordender's calendar event in Alldayers
I’m certain it was well-intentioned, if a little too fast, so Im sorry for my slight harsh response earlier. Dont want any bad blood, you dont deserve that. we are all at different levels of grief, and do/say things, thats surrounds this emotion. I was just shocked to see a memorial do announced before we had said our goodbyes at the funeral. thats all mate, Hope ya do goes well, Love ya Smiley xxx
