Ljblanken Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 I've never been to England before, but have just been told I am going to a conference in London on Mar 31st (thursday). I think I will take some vacation days and stay a bit! I'd like to attend as many soul things as possible. I really like 1960s stuff (including R&B and early funk as well as soul), but not as into 1970s or later. any suggestions would be awesome! I'll be staying at/near King's College. Thanks!
Little-stevie Posted January 26, 2011 Posted January 26, 2011 Skegness rare soul weekender... Perfect for you, that starts Friday and goes on to Sunday night... 2 hours or so by train ooooooop North and a good reason to get out of god forsaken shandy drinking cess pit... There will be folk going to the weekender from down South, they could maybe give you a life, share train???? anyone... I can also ask London based mates what on in the smoke, nothing i can see posted in events but not everything gets posted there.. With your choice in music there could be some Mod related events that cover RnB/ 60s soul/ funk/ boogaloo etc etc.. maybe Rob Bailey/ Clanger/ Warren/ Simsy/ Sam/ etc etc, all members on here??? Lets look after our friend from over the pond, he could bring us record mailers for free ... I am sure you will get some good feedback and hope you get to have a nice little break...
