Sleepless Nights Newsletter Dec 04 Dublin Northern Soul

Yo ho ho folks. well what a week that was. Our christmas party was looming and one slight technical hitch.....emm we didnt have a venue..... Id had a bad feeling on the eve and decided to check with the Gingerman and finally yes they confirmed we didnt have a confirmed booking. Call it bad luck, stress, problem of not having a permanent home or me just being a complete ^osser panic stations.... what will i tell John D and all.

All roads led to freakoutville then I rang Doyles to see if upstairs was anyway ready yet. "No but weve just bought pub next door, can let you have their function room" And so it was the faithful trundled into yet another temporary venue albeit right next door to our "home". A packed location, typical Dublin party mood we got on with it. Got home soberish, forgot keys, Donna at relatives i decided best i broke a window. Long story...

And on a rare weekend with two nights of soul we had a charity night in the Commercial Rowing Club SN + McScoots. Early on it was Scooter sounds gratiously making way for the Northern. Great to see Paul Mulholland&Paul Grant in the mainroom and some dinosaurs making their way upstairs to the modern sounds of Ross, Joe, Brian&more... this was a feel good night with no barriers. Sorry Paddy Kane you didnt win the raffle!!!!!!!!!!
