Pk 22dj Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) Just an Idea This is something I've been contemplating on setting up for a while now and think it might be a good idea to spread out throughout the UK soul clubs. This year to my knowledge in Stockport soul mates Budgie and Sammy Sutton have passed away and I'm sure others that I can't bring to mind. They like most of my friends on here loved Northern Soul and supported most events over the years. As far as I know this has never been done anywhere in the country which is shocking seeing as we go on about being a big soul family. So here goes let's make it a first for Stockport and may it spread across the UK. **************** My intentions are to have a night for all those members of our family' who have passed away all the monies raised on the door or donations will go to a charity. All the DJ's will come from Stockport and will give their time for free, The Moor Suite and has kindly been offered to us free by Bernard Greaves my good mate the room holds 200 people and will be a ticket only event, tickets costing £6 for this first event which will be on Friday the 22nd of November 2013. A large pin board will be placed at each side of the Stage for you to put Photos on of you and your love ones / mates who have passed to make sure they are there on the night. This year's money £1200 + will be split between the Charities of both Budgie and Sam's family by cheque and you will all know the amount raised either on the night or a few days later. ****************** I will be taking names plus payments for tickets at the Soul on the Edge Soul night at The Festival Hall in Alderley Edge on the 28th of September, let's make this not just a night to remember but also a night to remember them. Just think how much money we could all raise for charities in the name of Northern Soul, Please pass this message on. Looking forward to November the 22nd. Thank You Paul Kidd.

Pk 22dj Posted September 14, 2013 Author Posted September 14, 2013 I'm hoping to have some posters for this Friday coming so wil be down to see you mate.Any day Wed to Fri is fine. ROD Hi Rod, I finally got the tickets on Thursday night but the flyers are not ready till Wednesday, probably best I bring them together and then plug to everyone that the tickets can be bought from your place amongst others thus they will buy a few tunes from you at the same time. I would have been in to see you but have started a major building project 2.5 weeks ago and I'm totally bollocked out ha ha. I am at a point now where I can take it easy so will get down this coming week. Cheers again Rod and see you soon.
nrc Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Need a ticket for this. Any still available? E-mail me ncrosth@googlemail.com. Edited November 12, 2013 by nrc
