The Bolton Spitfire Soul Club
Sadly, quality events of this kind are getting rarer as age and circumstances take there toll. This is a top afternoon run by the right people for the right reasons in the right footwear. 😉 Keeping it real is probably right. Good work Mr Eccles.😁

Stateside combined with Tonys Empress Ballroom Reunion
That day was what it is all about. Or should be anyway. Big thank you to Mick and Andy for a great day with a roomful of the right people in the right place at the right time. And Irv Milne at 5 oclock- take a bow-brilliant 👍

Rochdale Masonic Hall
Really good venue this. Cracking dancefloor and quality ( and i mean quality) records all played on original vinyl. As it should be. Loved every minute of it.

Northern Soul t-shirts
About time Mike. Lot of uninteresting negative posts on this one. About time it was laid in its box and forgotten about.

Dancing from the outside: A new era?
Answer unquestionably is yes. Go out enough and you see loads of people going through their ‘ dance routine’ Enjoying themselves immensely but patently obviously no love of the music. Just putting on a show to watch when they get home or as Pete Eccles would say ‘ they would dance if the fire alarm went off’

TIFFANYS SOUL CLUB
Many thanks to Dave and co. for all the hard work involved in putting the night on. Best soul night we’ve been to in a long time and 3 sublime sets from Jordan, Mark and Tony. I think last night was as good as it gets currently. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Soulchoons @ The Prince
Highly enjoyable afternoon in sunny Southport. A rare day when nearly all the right people were in the right place at the right time. Many thanks to the organisers who did a great job to get the show on the road. Do it again. 👍

CULCHETH with CARL & MARIA WILLINGHAM
A little late with this but its been hot this week ! Venues like this are getting scarcer and scarcer, especially in this area so a big thank you to Baz and everyone involved for the time and effort to put the night on. And a massive thank you to Carl and Maria for an absolutely breathtaking set including the wonderful ‘ Billy Woods’ Highlight of my year so far 👍

Best live soul act you have seen?
Martha Reeves. Wigan 1977ish. Didn't know the words to One Way Out but fantastic nonetheless. Gladys Knight and her Pip. Las Vegas early 2000’s. Perfection.

Long long time since we went to a lock out soul night ! A great night with a boatload of lovely people having a really good time. And a Quality set from Mark Sharrocks with some absolutely sublime records. Best set i’ve heard in a long time. By a mile ! Well done Moz ( and co ) 👍👍

Blackpool Mecca Extravaganza
This made me laugh. ‘Peddling Speed’ At an event full of grannies and grandads dancing on an Axminster carpet to ‘ mainly’ late Mecca disco stuff. Doubt it.🤣🤣
