A great night of across the board soul music, something to please everyone. 100 plus through the door, quite an enthusiastic crowd. Had plenty of feedback from some of the people who were there and they said it was a great night and they would definitely be coming back. I even played about 25 minutes worth of youth club music during my first spot and it went down really well (even got a few up dancing as early as 8.30) can't be bad. Even Dave Venables made a comment about how he had not heard one of the records played at a soul do for ages, (Pick me up and put me in your pocket, Jeanette Harper).
Our kid was on after me he did a great spot played some tunes that I had not heard before. Me and him need to stop being afraid of the Mic though. Neil waller was on next and I couldn't fault his spot I think he really enjoyed himself too. Then it was Jools Metcalfe and what can I say he just carried on with some cracking tunes, before he came he was told that the people round the area preferred 60'S northern but he was pleasantly surprised when he played a bit of everything and kept the dance floor full.
I did the last spot and had my records picked out ready to play,but I got asked for so many requests that I hardly had chance
to play any. Never mind if people enjoyed it then what the eck, thats what its all about. Well got to go now thanks to everyone who turned up and made it a great night for us and hope to see you in March on the 15th.
