So , less than a week to go , Mal was asked to do a Sunday here at Creepers yaks ago , tell it as it is, we had a few visits to a certain club in Manchester & Mal & I were inspired, respect &' love to everyone that runs soul events in Nottingham, its a great scene
This is how it is, Sunday Creepers is not
100 mile per hour northern ,
Nor is it a chill out event ,
It's not a rare event either ,
Bit of all that , but mostly a celebration of 60tys soul , mod culture, juke box cafe culture , but mostly a celebration of still being here alive and kicking, living the life we love as long as we can , see you there , gonna be one hell of a weekend! You know what else is on , & ive got to try & fit a Forest match in anorl , koko !!!
Very rare now days to find an atmosphere like I experienced yesterday, when I entered upstairs room at 3 30 ish it was already rocking , thought it would be a slow start . Down in the basement where I go , was a bit slower , but its like taking a deep breath before a plunge, goodness me , blimey it was jumping, vibrating , rocking , friendly , funny at times , you can't help but laugh you know you're part of something special Hope trains are running next month I want to do it all again thank you please . KOKO.
Happy new year soul folk , here we go again another SOULcial event at okeh Lodge . Seems a long time since the last one when I played a motown set , early doors this time gonna play some under played northern , see you there
Simply awesome spent all day in basement , dance floor about perfect , tunes were spot on great mix of Wheel tunes & northern anthems , & the crowd wow , everyone pulling together determined to have a good time , many Mancs & travelling soulies , spoke to peeps from Telford ,Morecombe, Sheffield, Chesterfield, & six of us from Nottingham, thanks for the memory, have a good Christmas do , hopefully see you in New year , koko
