Look forward to this, went to your previous venue and what a great crowd, I know lots of them from Burnleys lost souls which is a big Yorkshire day, always seem to get on well with White Rose, 28 years ago I did Soul@the Ooze in Barnoldswick which had a predominantly Yorkshire following. Had great times working over the border with Ginger at Brighouse, Gary at Okeh soul, Steve Burke, Julian, does up at the Engine Shed with Tony Banks, recently Hull city soul with Daryl and Steve Oxburgh. A niter in Leeds at the Hi Fi club, Lawrence and Jools in Bradford, Black Horse Skipton with Chris Sayce and Guy Hennigan, I'm feeling quite Yorkshire writing all that, anyway I'll be there with enthusiasm for Ade, with my humble collection of oddities.

200 TKTS sold, historically therewasa 50/50 split between otd and ticket sales so it's possible it could be a lockout, I suppose people want to see the beautiful restoration work also.

Before refurb we had 3 events over the year of 350 each, I think the idea is to limit numbers for the first one, see how it goes. I will update ticket sales next week.

Roman here, very much looking forward to this, been to last few and the music is something else, lovely people. Also it's week before Winter Gardens so a few tunes to try out I will play at Blackpool.

Thanks Pete, what a first event back that was, sold out. May 11th and Billy Backdrop, William Cudworth steps in for Ginger who has to miss. Billy was awesome at last one and it's a pleasure to bring him back. Tickets as above not many left at this time.

Another book by Rob McKeever was the Twisted Wheel story.
-
Yes not long now, enthusiastic about getting to Hull, might stop over another day and explore. Got Blackpool Tower in May then Winter Gardens in June so East coast to West for me.

The McKeever brothers head our guest line up, good friends from Barrow in Furness they support the club regularly. This will be their second spell on the decks at Lost Souls, Rob was author/ publisher of the Ginger Taylor story "The Right Track" also their books on Barrows soul scene are a great historical record of that areas contribution to soul. Paul has a great collection of xover and 7ts soul which blew us all away last time.
