Bridlington Spa Saturday Afternoon Motown Room

[Dave West]

THE MOTOWN ROOM

All DJS did 2 spots,one early and the other later.The early session gave the djs the chance to "show off" some of the more rare and obscure stuff in their collections and stuff not normally requested.A steady flow of people entered the room and by 1:30 over 200 were in and the requests started to come.The room had a great atmosphere and by 3pm was full (300+)
