Though this is great news for a club steeped in so much history, the introduction of a sponsor does not mean OUR special nights will be saved, you can pretty much guarantee that bands will be booked to play every saturday night

absolutely brilliant news and the shot in the arm all independant venues need....the knowledge that when it comes to the crunch, people PEOPLE REALLY DO CARE.i think sponsorship DOSNT necessarily mean a name change...afterall, the campaign has been ABOUT saving the CLUB WITH THE DEFINITIVE NAME. CHANGE THE NAME AND PEOPLE WILL WONDER WHAT ALL THE EFFORT WAS FOR?.

i cant imagine for one minute, ady will rest on his laurels and he'll be in there cutting deals( if he hasnt already) just as soon as humanly possible. whoever the benificiary is, they're probably aware of the long tradition of 6ts soul nighters and will know its a moneyspinner.

"GOOD NEWS" IN THE MORNING.....AS THEY SAY!.....MERRY CHRISTMAS SOULIES!!:D

Who cares if they change the name ? They can call it the Glowing durex for all I care..................at the end of the day it won't be compulsory for everyone to use it when talking about it............to us it will always be the 100 Club, pretty simple really !

Anyway if it was to use a sponsers name it would probably be the 100 club Sponsored by xxxxxxxxxx or xxxxxxxxxxxs 100 club, don't see the problem :thumbsup:

True but Jeff's always been helpful to the nighters when he can and from what I gather we've got all next years dates so it's looking good at the mo.

Slightly off topic but it always riles me when the 100 club is mentioned in the media it always quietly air brushes out 31 years of soul all nighters there but mentions just about everything else that's been done there :D

Lenny

Just as well! who cares whether any drunken pizz taking Tom, Dick or Harriette have never heard of the allniters ?

Very true Dave and I'm the last person you want to dance in front of with high heels and a drink in your hand rolleyes.gif

Still bugs me though :thumbsup:

Huh, Just what have you heard about me Lenny ?....... cause i can assure you that I never dance with a drink in my hand.................. watch out for my heels though !!!!!!! laugh.gif

Yes I know what you mean mate & it's a great achievement 31 years on but before 6ts @ 100 Club gets too much publicity can we give it another 30 years ????? :)

great night at the Xmas party, judging by some missing wooden floor tiles they had given up on maintenance for a bit but at least the 4 red light bulbs were still working to give that special atmosphere we all know & love. The new "no drinks on the dancefloor" signs certainly stopped the usual Xmas puddles. Business as usual....

This excellent news. I first went to the 100 in 1973 (American Blues Legends) and it has been one of my favourite venues ever since, even though I can't get down there so much these days. I e-mailed Jeff about a month ago and he said that there could be someone "stepping up to the plate" but I feared that he was just being optimistic rather than realistic. I'm delighted that he was being the latter.

Over the crimbo period I was out with the chap who has just bailed The 100 Club out, he doesn't want to be identified but there are a few on here who know him.

would b good if u could a later fin like the old days as stopped going as much as 3hr wait for train 2 much

Can't do it I'm afraid. Westminster won't allow any clubs open after 6am.

We're having one when the clocks go back in Oct and we've got it until 6am new time, so at least it won't be an extra hour for DRimmer and similar Thomas the Tank Engine fans.

:shades: HI ADY AND A BELATED HAPPY NEW YEAR,,,,,,IN MY YOUTH AS A WEST HAM BOY IN WEST END CLUBS, I HERD RUMORS THAT THE 6AM THING WAS DOWN TO THE PRINCE OF WALES, AS CHARLES OWNS MOST OF THE WEST END, ALL THE CLUBS AND CAF°S CLOSED AT 6 AM THEE WAS 1 AT KINGS CROSS THAT STAYED OPEN, IT WAS FULL OF OLD BRASS & PARAFFIN LAMPS, I USED TO COME FROM THE FLAMINGO AND HEAD FOR THE DILLY, AND ON THE RARE TIMES I WAS HUNGRY THE TAXI RANK AT TRAFALGAR SQUARE WAS POPULAR WITH CLUB GOERS, THE MARQUEE USE TO SHUT AT MIDNIGHT AND HAD NO BAR AT ALL, I WONDER WHAT THE ATTRACTION WAS??? I DON'T THINK ANYONE WOULD STAY TO 8 AM ANY WAY MATE, THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING AND YOU MIGHT SEE ME BEGGING OUTSIDE WEST END CENTRAL? HAS MICK TOLD YOU OF MY BAD LUCK??
