Thanks for your comments, all down to Chris Anderton tonight, fantastic......more of the same to follow, if there is one thing i can give this scene perhaps not at the gigs on such a regular basis but from the shows perspective is to show the depth of music we can all go at and enjoy, of course i will play any and all requests if people take the time to contact me, having said that it's about the Aladins cave of tunes that need playing, the guests i have on the show reflect these comments and Mr Anderton was simply stunning.

Really looking forward to the show this weekend Mark - and I'm afraid I've got a bit of a theme lined up that might prove a bit of fun. Its always great fun in the shack mate but you know me - Come up with a daft idea to start with and then batter it to it's most extreme and illogical conclusion.

Its mad......but it might just work!!! Oh, and I will bring lemonade and nibbles too! (Ale and nuts if your prefer? Or what about hard boiled eggs and nuts? LOL)

See ya Sunday night matey and all the best for the 'Save The Shack' gig in Londinium, I'm sure it will be a corker! Please pass on my best to Jo and all the gang. :tumbleweed3:

Boiled eggs it is then Neil....lol see you Sunday mate.

Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Just off to that there London Saturday lunch time for the Soul Shack Soul Night at The Marine Broker in the City, just wanted to bump this thread to remind you all that Mr Jones will be joining me in the Soul Shack on Sunday from 8pm www.solarradio.com a fantastic show is promised.
