What were your first thoughts Ted.... Are they real? Where's he got em from? OR..Where's me bloody cheque book I had a similar phone call earlier this year...but it was on April 1st

Well remembered there Will we attended the early ones together & watched this one grow. Which futher strenghthens my point that yes these sort of soul nights are difficult to get going, we all know that but there is a 100 club potential in the Midlands. The right place and all those who are forced to travel most weekends can enjoy a home game for a change.

Exactly at least half were from the West Mids...Where do all those quality soul appreciating people go now??

No Mr Bagg, me Mom was taken into hospital last Friday & I've been a regular at Russells Hall for a week. Glad to say she's on the mend now. We're off to the Algarve 2morrow

Firstly..Many apologies Guys couldn't make the last Yams Yams because of a family illness and hospital attandance etc. Secondly..Sorry Pete but I really have to disagree with your pessimistic outlook on soul in this area. Please explain the long established & very successful Coppertops at Worcester where the music policy is anything but the same old played to death oldies.Guest DJ's playing exactly the newies, obscurities, cheapies and rare oldies, you state "has got no f*cking chance because there's just nobody who will support this type of venue"...HOWEVER the place & dance floor is full to bursting every time? The Late lamented Lea Manor...where Dj's competed to play obscurity unknowns and expensive ex Stafford spins..the place was always ram packed.. audiences requesting the superb sounds that they could ONLY hear at Lea Manor. People in this area attend Goodyears and similar because they have NO BLOODY CHOICE !!!... many journey 2-4 hours every week to frequent venues where they can enjoy quality Northern ..not the did we all only live in the 70's played to death venues. If you look at the audience in the big room at Prestatyn weekenders with DJ'S Butch, Soul Sam, Roger Banks, Tim Brown, Ginger Taylor, Dave Rimmer, John Weston etc what do you see?... Lots of dancing Midlanders The future of the Midland soul scene is VERY much in the hands of adventurous DJ/promoters like the Yam Yam guy's. Find the right venue, maintain the newies, in demand, obscurities, rare music policy, and a MONSTER soul venue WILL be born. Whats the alternative? Why bother with Vinyl at all? Why not let all the Midlands share the same get em on the floor 6 CD's and we can all yawn ourselves into an early grave... Accept all these Derby & Joan soul clubs NO WAY !! ........THE RIGHT PLACE AND CENTRAL SOUL WILL LIKE A PHEONIX RISE FROM THE ASHES...

Lots of interest on this... sorry all who mailed its now on hold
