After the great success of the first Lifeline Weekender held in February 2006, you will be pleased to know that we are going to hold another in 2007! The dates are February 9th, 10th and 11th 2007. The line up will again feature some of the worlds premier Soul DJ's. As well as the usual Lifeline residents, Butch, Andy Dyson, Mick H, Chalky, Cliff Steele and Soul Sam, guests including Dean Anderson, Kitch, Tim Brown, Arthur Fenn & Andy Whitmore and others to be confirmed, will be spinning the finest soul from the 60's and 70's with maybe the odd 80's and funk flavored discs also getting an airing. Unfortunately the hotel has increased their prices but only by £10 per person per weekend making a total cost of £110, still a bargain in our opinions to spend a weekend listening to the finest soul spinners spinning the finest soul on vinyl in the world!! All those who had rooms for the first weekender in February 2006 will be given first refusal of a room for the 2007 event. You will have until the end of July to pay your deposit (50% non-refundable, £55) to secure a room. If the deposit not paid then the room will be given to someone on the waiting list who have indicated they would like a room. The balance MUST be paid by November 1st or again the room will be released to someone on the waiting list. We have to be strict with the deadline for the balance to be paid because the hotel stipulates that we pay them the final payment for the use of the hotel for the weekend and we also spent too much time last year chasing late payers...these are the hotel rules not ours unfortunately so we have to be a little more stricter with this than we were last year. Demand for rooms is greater than what we can supply so it is best you pay your deposits/balances on time to avoid disappointment. If you can't get into the hotel then again weekend passes will be available at £35 with plenty of accommodation close by. Payment...... Cash, postal orders are the preferred option but if you wish to pay by cheque make payable to Karl White. If you require a booking form, e-mail me and I will send you one via e-mail. All monies to be sent to... Lifeline Weekender 31 Hartington Road Spital Chesterfield Derbyshire S41 0HE

Always tried to keep Soul Source easy to view and easy to join however due to spammers and clowns have had to tighten up the "new members" policy 1. All members must verify their email - a email is sent by site and NEEDS to be replied to before next step 2. Site verifies account, before this is done the site has a look at the username, email given, and profile info It is important that if wish membership you do try and give as much info as possible (sorry but if you apply with a free email, odd username and no profile info then it is highly likely that your account will not get validated 3. Once 1 and 2 gets done, your account will be open and you should have full access to most features on Soul Source If have any problems with the "new members" procedure - ie no email etc please use the contact link at the top of this page thanks due to upgrades etc this is a very rushed doc and hopefully will be tightended up later

Just in case anyone has a spare hour to fill on Thursday 20th April, Jamie&Rich guest with all round jolly good fellow James Addyman on his 'Down In The Grooves' show. The show runs 7:00pm - 10:00pm every Thursday and frequently features guests from the Soul world. The guests usually feature just after the 9:00pm news for the last hour. Jamie&Rich will be spinning a few yarns, sorry, tunes! and chatting about what got them into the music, collecting and generally just having a bit of a chin-wag on all things Northern Soul. Hope you can join us >>Link To BBC Radio Leeds<<
