  • A brief intro...
    Been a soul fan as long as I can remember. Got seriously into the rare soul/allnighter scene in mid 80s. Ran Valatone Soul Sessions in late 90's until 2007... Have dj'd all over the place... Biggest booking was two years at the Vintage Festival where I performed on the Soul Stage, the Northern Soul Tent and the Rockabilly tent... Have been "resting" for the past few years concentrating on work....I'm running a reunion do this summer and hope to make it a regular twice year event

  8. Hi all My Friend Kelly's mum has just contacted me looking for someone to put on a Northern Soul night at her pub in Farnworth near Bolton. It's a newly renovated pub called the Kings arms hotel. Whoever takes it on would need to bring their own equipment (decks and Sound system). PM me at john.timlin@booz.com and I'll give you the contact details and you can sort out fees, dates etc. with the landlady directly. Could be a nice little regular gig for the right person Cheers Johnny
  9. Is there anything on in town in October? Ta Johnny
