good idea to catch up on your sleep Pete with a new little person on the way

But really...who cares????

Paul only just seen this hun, put me down for one I'll send you £20.00 for the cause, dont mind waiting for the disc either. Right you lot with short arms and long pockets get your dosh out and be ordering a Cd or tape.

Get off your arses, travel any which way you can and support the cause, we're a long time dead, and its always better to have memories rather than regrets.

Oi!!!! Thats my intended

After much soul searching and with a heavy heart Its now time to call it a day for the ELSC, the amount of venues offering 2nd rate nights locally are a fast expanding virus on the current scene and I have more respect for the music than those whom continue to abuse the scene and the music in which ever way they see fit to promote their venues and themselves. So I have decided to no longer promote the ELSC... she will 'retire' from the main circuit on our 5th anniversary on the 6th December 2008 to take a well deserved rest and can do so with her head held high. Grafton house WILL remain the home of the East Lincoln Soul Club and who knows, that once the current trend of 'lets put on a soul nite' is no longer a novelty, the ELSC may return to once again deliver the quality soul music it has served over the past 5 years. The ELSC was started by a group of friends whom shared one thing and that was a love of northern soul, over the years people have come and gone, but the music always remained the main focus of the ELSC and was delivered by some of the best Djays both locally and the wider area. I would like to say a massive heartfelt thanks to the many, many people whom have supported the ELSC over the past 5 years, to the Djays whom collectively have brought and played some of the best music ever heard in this city, and to the promoters nationally whom have allowed us and supported us in the advertising of the ELSC, I say a big thank you. Personally I will continue to djay at various venues but am also looking forward to going further afield to venues that have the same committment to the music and the scene that the ELSC had. Dawn Roberts aka Sister Dawn Promoter and Djay ELSC October 2008 Just want to say a very special thanks to The Rev whom broke his back every saturday once a month doing the day job then setting stuff up for the nites, to Kez for being one of the best ever, Andrew and Eileen for only missing one nite in 5 years. To Paul and Mick Donnelly for all the support and advice given to the ELSC (we had the best times at the DKOF's roadshows), To all the lady jocks for the Girls on Top nites over the years... massive respect to each and every one of you and little Miss Soul Rosie whom was ten when she first span her first GOT tune. To all resident Djays past and present, Thank you x

So Sad to hear this news, I know he had been ill for so long, but never the less, Levi's voice has been a comfort and a pleasure to me throughout my lifetime. Somewhere in soul heaven tonight an angels singing so sweetly.

Hell no has that one not been done to death already

Right everyone ready for the Jeremy Kyle show now then????

Thats cool, but ya gonna hate these two though

I love the remix version better seems to have more umphh about it.

Damn it Beeks, history has to be rewritten now , it was all factually wrong, everything that had ever been written, who played what by whom at the casino,who wore what and why. In fact I dont think Wigan ever happened, its all a conspiracy, it was probably just a branch of uncle joes mintballs, bit like tootsweets in chitty chitty bang bang... it was a figment perhaps of some dodgy chemical trip... i dont think we'll ever know the real truth... right must go have to be back in my sideroom in 5 minutes...

damn I missed the pastie, please dont make me watch it again

Of course should it be any other way?? Nice black FC Skirt with pockets, in a nice material, (non rock n rollish i.e shiny silk type fabric), taken to just above the ankle as spencers intended.

So long as its indicative of what is retro and within the boundaries of such sorry was retro

Just watched it thanks to the power of Rita on facebook...(thanks Rita) As light hearted entertainment goes it was a giggle, As a fan of northern soul it wasnt really a true reflection of the scene any longer but the past (again), those clothes were an embarrassment particularly the shiny material of the skirts it looked more like a rock and roll convention, at least the lads looked half decent, but the ladies come on, what happened to the black????

Does anyone know if Matt Stokes six odd minute film long after tonight has made it to the net yet?

Me too please xx

I agree with what Steve has said here .... honesty trust and friendship has played a major part in this scene of ours since I first got into it, and thats how it is for me years later, backstabbers dont get a place behind my decks and I certainly wouldnt part with any money going to a venue to see em, regardless of tracks.... when someone for example has the same record 40 miles up the road.

Just received this email today and am saddened to hear that one of the best nights in Lincolnshire is coming to an end. I would just like to thank Steve and the crew for putting this nite on, been to a fair few in the past and always had a great time. Gonna make sure that whatever plans I have on this nite are cancelled so I can attend. This is yet another loss on the scene of a quality great nite with a brill music policy, I sometimes wonder where its all going to end? ''Hi All I would like to let you know that Out On The Floor Again Grantham friday 21st November 2008 with SOUL SAM, ROB SMITH & JOHN MANSHIP will be the last one. We have decided to call it a day after 8 years, We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supporrted us over the years, and all the great DJ`s that have graced the decks. Lets hope for a good send off, not for us the promoters, but for the loyal regular supporters, the club staff & the DJ`s to have a night to remember. Thanks Steve & Pauline Gutteridge''.
