Jez Jones 1,127 Posted September 5, 2023 Not really a place to go to worship DJ's Not really a place to go to worship large car parks Not really a place to go to worship cheap ale Not really a place to go to worship cavernous ballrooms Not really a place to go to worship past glories from half a century ago Not really a place to go to be with masses and masses of people It is a place to go to enjoy/enthuse the music It is a place to go to to be with others who enjoy/enthuse about the music In short ...IT IS A PLACE TO GO WHERE THE GROWN UPS GO !!!

Jez Jones 1,127 Posted September 7, 2023 Just throwing these into the mix as suggestions for an overnight stop if you so wish All these are within a mile or so of the Cricket Club venue..with the Lion and Swan and Lamb Inn just a 5 minute walk there are others that I will seek out nearer the time https://www.reubensbarandbbq.com/ https://www.robinsonsbrewery.com/pubs/egerton-arms-astbury/ https://thelambinncongleton.co.uk/ https://lionandswan.co.uk/ https://www.visitcheshire.com/.../the-queens-head-hotel...

Jez Jones 1,127 Posted September 10, 2023 Just a reminder..had enquiries over record sales...absolutely we encourage them...feel free...we do have a 'sales corner' when needed Link to comment
Jez Jones 1,127 Posted September 12, 2023 Again had one or two asking....and its a valid point YES the bar accepts BOTH cash and card payments for your convenience This is important because some venues I've heard of either accept cash only or card only.... Congleton Cricket Club accept both !!!! Link to comment
Jez Jones 1,127 Posted September 14, 2023 IT'S A FIRST !!! ...that Dean ,Tim. James and have DJ'd together for us at FTMNTC....'local boys come good' is certainly a great description !! there is more than a sniff of curiosity as we 'smash' through the 2000 views barrier on here !! The 'chaps' I'm sure will bring a fresh and dynamic selection of music for us......as they share their tastes ''Music is the stake in the ground — ‘this is who I am' and this is 'what I like'' There's an 'air of excitement' as we near our end of summer event here at Congleton Cricket Club. Exceptional late Summer weather has enabled the grounds to be a a full and lush shade of green... You will notice a more than just a tenuous link as we prepare for Saturdays musical experience,,whereby we can look forward to an evening appealing to the senses with the lush sounds of our beloved music Try and get their early...we start at 7pm.....No really ...Dean will be up and running at 7pm.......we dont do warm up slots here I'm afraid...............
