Goldsoul

Like what could be different to our 2nd room The Windsor with Soul Sam, Ted Massey, Tim Ashibende or R&B and underplayed 60's with John Heaney?

Where in any of his advertising did he say it was warm up for the Kings Hall Stoke All Nighter? And what does Change mean? I take it as 'two fingers up' to a prominent All Nighter.

Is this still going on? Anybody got any decent records to sell? F*** all on EBay

Of course not. No one can copyright the word Torch. However, the Torch logo and emblem relating to his former club he owns.

I didn't think it would be long before you turned up. Pour yourself another one.

Then stop commenting on something you know f*** all about. I said 24 hours ago that Chris Burton has no intention of promoting The Box, even though the owner is still trying to get him in. What does that say about the current promoter. FFS!

Lovely comment from a 'moderator'. Leave the scene and quickly!

Why not indeed....let it drop. Topic starter over to you......

And here's the best bit of all.........Chris was still being offered the venue even TODAY!

Goldsoul has no interest in promoting at a venue like the Box. First of all it isn't good enough for our model. Chris Burton is a long standing friend who was totally encouraged by the venue owner to promote there(FACT). Thankfully common sense has prevailed. Jez Jones and his supporters can happily enjoy the venue. Business as usual. Good luck to the Box, Crewe!

Steve- Chris wasn't planning a Torch revival. He has a separate venue for his themed promotions at the Floral Hall, Tunstall. The Box issue came about when the owner of said venue specifically requested him in to promote All Nighters at the venue. Clearly playing two promoters off against each other. Jez Jones(conspicuous by his absence) did speak to Chris Burton and exchanged emails before this all blew up yesterday.

I have seen the emails from the Box owner to Chris....they make interesting reading. Good luck to Jez Jones and his good work at the venue.

Email....on behalf of Chris Burton. He doesn't know those DJ's. I think you'll find the owner of the Box is none too happy over all this and emails confirm he wanted Chris in as the All Nighter promoter. I have been more than decent in making CB walk away. However, the venue and Jez Jones looks like a marriage made in hell!

More than happy to see you take on the Kings Hall again.

I think I'm referring to two guys on this thread that started running All Nighters 3 miles away from the Kings Hall Stoke. They failed and moved on.

Shades of The Queens Burslem and the Kings Hall Stoke spring to mind.

The Box promoter cannot promote Torch Reunions. That's why he's titled his CO72. Chris is out of the Box as advised. A wise move.

As I understand he's doing 4 a year at the Floral Hall Tunstall. As for date clashing I cannot see how he is clashing with anyone. He's doing an authentic Torch theme and as the former owner, he has every right to. And judging by his first one which sold out a few weeks ago and isn't on until Jan 24th, I would say fans have bought into the promotion.

I think Keele is Neil Clowes and probably always will be. Chris is merely keeping it all going.

Yes and did it well on a grand scale. CB wasn't promoting at that time. Now he is......over to him to add real authenticity.

Mace......Maybe. I just feel if anyone should deserve to do a proper job on a Torch Revival its CB. Especially now it's in Tunstall. Nothing much else to say about it

Hang on though.....he's every right to promote Torch events. He's back in its original town- Tunstall with a specially themed Torch only event. As the former owner I think the public deserve a more authentic look and feel instead of third division copycat promoters riding on his back. The Torch is Chris Burton. Accept no substitute. Credit where credits due.
