  1. Slippers reviewed Ladymidnight's review on an event in Weekenders

    until

    I love Stockholm (I worked there back in 2008 and have visited many times since) and I love soul music and so I decided to combine the two and take a trip to the Stockholm Soul Weekender and all I can say to Carl, Jens, all of the DJs, the bar staff and all of the wonderful people that I met from Sweden, Italy, Holland, Germany and the UK - you fuc*ing well smashed it! No politics, no elitest attitudes - just a big bunch of warm people who love soul music in its various guises and who like to have a laugh, a drink and a dance. Hopefully see you all again in 2026 PS Carl, if you could persuade Jens to post or send his Sunday playlist I would be eternally grateful,. Oh and just one other thing - could you please remind me of the 2026 dates? Cheers Slippers

    Started watching 'The Agency' on Paramount+ It's an english language remake of a French series - 'Le Bureau des Légendes' (also on Paramount +) - that came out a few years back and which is one of my top 5 TV shows of all time Well worth a watch and Michael Fassbiende is pretty good in the lead role. But IMHO, the french original is better.

    I liked the third one, 'Hotel Reverie' and the fifth one,'Eulogy'
  5. Slippers commented on Neil Randall's comment on an event in Soul Nights

    Had to leave midway through (6am start next morning) but this was the best NS event I've been to for a long time. Busy from the word go, great atmosphere and nice to see some younger folk (well they looked younger) doing their thing on the dance floor. All in all, I Loved it, Cheers, S

    Hi Carl, very interested in this even though it's a few months away - is it posiible to get a weekend pass in advance or is it just at the door? Thanks, S
  8. Thanks Kathryn, glad you enjoyed it i(if 'enjoyed' is the right word) Sort of film related, I'm currently watching 'Better call Saul' on Netflix . Once you get through the first couple of episodes in series one, which to be honest are mildly annoying, it settles down to become a truly great peice of Television. Back on topic, one of the better films I've seen lately is 'Mr Jones' I think it's on Netflix - not entirely sure, it's all about Stalin's forced starvation of the Ukrainian people in the 1930s.
  9. Bastarden (Danish Title) AKA The Bastard or 'The Promised Land' is well worth a watch - first thing to have kept me occupied for 2 hours for since I don't know when. It's on the BBC Iplayer.
  10. Law of Tehran, a compelling, magnificent piece of work. My attention span is severely limited and yet I was completely transfixed for the just over two hours. Blew me away

    Dark Hearts (BBC 4 and I Player) French series set in Iraq during peak Isis. It's a grower and very suspenseful

    whenever Man U played Leeds Charltoms mother use to say to Jack, " be kind to our Robert"
  13. Underneath my appartment theres a typical Swedish restaurant serving typical Swedish food. I had the windows open last night and just caught the faintest traces of something special on their CD player. Margie Joseph - One more chance Moved over to the window, lit up a fag, and sung (out loud). Felt happy and stupid all at the same time. Then this morning I went over to the 2nd hand shop and found an album Ive been after for donkeys - Blue Magic, 13 blue magic street which includes the sublime - The lonliest house on the block. Bit my tongue this time but its going around in my head as I type
  14. Walked to work this morning whistling along to Sam and Dave's 'soothe me' . Got a few odd looks from the locals as I don't think that whistling is a european thing.
  15. Solomon Burke - Simplicity (UK London) Lillian Dupree - Shield Around My Heart (D-Town) Jessie Mae - Don't Freeze On Me (DRA) Cheers, K
