Haha well it doesn't really matter, I'm guessing it's more about the passion, obviously if people look the part and can dance then even better ;) Not sure where you're flying from Dave but pretty sure we won't be able to sadly haha

Good point Byrney, they want a mixture of old and young fans - people who saw the scene evolve and people who are new to it but just as passionate Not just Wigan.. Cheers

Call out for dancers / original Northern Soul fans View full article

Hope this is the right forum guys apologies if not Does anyone know of any cool bars/clubs/nights in Berlin I should check out? I'm there 22nd-27th July?

Also love Chris Clark 'Love's Gone Bad'

I used to play It's A Shame' every set so overdid it a bit haha but still a solid fave! Recently started playing it again now & then

Also love Temptations 'I'm losing you' Have to admit I'm a big fan of Rod's version too!

What a list!

I didn't see another thread but haven't been here long! Great track!

I'm a fan of lots of soul music but have been listening to a lot of Motown recently and would love to know your favourite Motown tracks, hit & lesser known? (maybe 1 or 2 of each) Lesser known (to me anyway) Tammi Terrell 'I Can't Believe You Love Me' More well known The Spinners 'It's A Shame' Martha Reeves & The Vandellas 'Nowhere To Run'

I like Craig Charles as a DJ/presenter but I think he always aligns himself with funky stuff more than Northern, his DJ sets are certainly of the funky variety, he's even playing at a Northern Soul allnighter on Sat & his set is described as 'funk & soul' not Northern so I don't think he would claim to know about that scene, perhaps he's heard a couple of isolated stories that have tainted his view? I'm new to the scene compared to everyone on here but I've been chatting to a lot of original fans & big DJ's from the day recently who've told me countless amazing stories and they all said it was a friendly-to-everyone scene back then

Can't get enough of Leon Bridges at the moment! Gutted his last show was sold out hope to catch him soon!

I haven't slated anyone! Oh dear misinterpreting each other like nobody's business haha Have posted the launch weekend stuff in events now anyway

Thanks Dave will do soon as line-up is finalised

As mentioned previously The Night Owl haven't released the logo yet! If you mean the facebook profile pic that's just a photo of the record label. At least wait until the logo is released before you slate it

Bit slow on the uptake this morning oops haha!

Guys just to let you know had such an overwhelming positive response yesterday, loads of nice comments and messages, we've got some amazing reputable Northern Soul DJs and promoters wanting to get involved & my blog post has had 15,000 views so far. Northern Fridays will be 100% no gimmicks, no glitterball, original vinyl only and ALL about the music! Personally I can't wait for Mostly Motown Saturdays, glitterball will be in full effect, I'll be singing along to The Supremes and Four Tops ;)

No glitterballs on Northern Soul Nights No gimmicks I'm promoting it, am I Mr Blobby??

Wish I could have been to some of these nights!

Welcome your feedback and input re DJs we have Little Scottie as one of our main Friday residents & I'm booking the Saturday DJs (& will sometimes DJ myself on Sats)
