  1. Fancy a boogie to some old faves ? Fancy getting yer 'glad rags and dancing shoes'on Fancy a night out in leafy South Cheshire Tick Tock tick tock The countdown is on !!!!
  2. Last one of 2022..real good night out here in leafy South Cheshire....great venue..playing old faves and forgotten gems....a 'proper soul night out'
    Just a few words about Friday night....One of the 'perks' of being a co-promoter of FTMNTC is you get to hear REALLY diverse music, not only from the residents BUT from the guest DJ's also. Friday it hit its peak imo ..obviously the sublime selections from Butch rocked the very foundations and rafters.....a promoters dream....clock off for a couple hrs and join the enthusiasts in enjoying some of the finest tunes this building has hosted !!!! Well done mate There was a spillover from the 'butch effect' (is this a new psychologists term ) but the residents pulled out some corkers...well done chaps...... Music first ? Yes indeed front and centre !!! Its heartening for me to see my fellow promoters enjoying the fruits of their labours..which included an atmosphere to die for !! This goes for enthusiasts also that packed into the room some that travelled from the other side of the country (Yes Mick Donnelley thats you !) and whom many have been when we haven't been quite so busy but enjoy the ethos The whole building was utilised and the bar manager estimated a whopping near 150 were in... .... I say with confidence....this REALLY was one of those 'you had to be there nights' WELL DONE EVERYONE...thanks to you lot I had an absolute spiffing night out..do hope you all did I went to sleep with a grin on me face that night...did you ?
  3. Pay on the door still available This will be spiffing !!!
  4. *Please note Butch will be doing 2 x 1hrs slots during the evening 7:00 - 7:20 John 7:20 - 7:40 Dave 7:40 - 8:00 Jez 8:00 - 8:20 Kev 8:20 - 8:40 John 8:40 - 9:00 Paul 9:00 - 10-00 Butch 10:00 - 10:20 Dave 10:20 - 10:40 Jez 10:40 - 11:00 Kev 11:00 - 12:00 Butch 12:00 - 12:20 Paul 12:20 - Finish FTMNTC Team
  5. Good man I'll see ya later...safe journey marra !!
  6. We've had a polite request from the Cricket Club. Can we restrict the use of Talcum Powder. They understand that some people do like to put talc down..HOWEVER it gets ingrained in the floor and the cleaners have difficulty in removing the talc. This club is very popular and is indeed booked out 2 or 3 times each weekend plus in the week and its unfair to expect the next group to put up with a talc laden room The club appreciate your co operation in this matter and look forward to welcoming friends from far and wide this Friday, for an absolute cracker of a night !!!
  7. Just to confirm :- They are having tea and coffee self serve on as many regulars are aware plus also a selection of sandwiches at the Cricket Club for Friday night
  8. Quite a few wristbands have been sold already and indeed STILL reporting healthy sales !! HOWEVER the Cricket Club have informed me.....there is MORE capacity available due to the large bar and accompanied lounge room area at the club plus the covered outside alfresco section THEREFORE travel with confidence...you can STILL pay on the door
  9. So this Friday Butch is joining the lads at FTMNTC... yes !!!...really !!!...its time to play some records !!!!
  10. Had one or two asking....and its a valid point YES the bar accepts BOTH cash and card payments for your convenience This is important because some venues I've heard of either accept cash only or card only....and you only know when you get there !!!! Congleton Cricket Club accept both !!!! For your convenience
  11. Without listing names...there is ALWAYS a great group of people turning out for these gatherings. Its great to listen and enjoy a 'wide range' of tunes....some will be 'first time out ...' at this fabulous little event *****It's not all about what is seen ...it's all about what is heard***** Give us a try ...am sure you'll hear some that will 'tickle your fancy
  12. Hi all...do hope we are looking forward to next Friday 18th..it promises to be a 'most splendid' night out and I for one cant wait .Its always good to reach 'HOT' status on here indicating demand is growing Therefore due to potential heavy demand........I have updated this event page with local extra car parking provision plus possible overnight accommodation for those who so desire!!! Anyway on a more sombre note I have to report one of the squad is injured. The success of every team revolves around its squad..and here at FTMNTC we are extremely fortunate to have a squad that is flexible and all sharing the same 'music first' ethos..... Geese has had a very nasty head on car accident on Tuesday night whilst on his bike and he is currently in Royal Stoke hospital. Geese is an avid cyclist and we can can be reassured that he had all the correct 'gear' on and the very best of PPE ......however we all know it aint a 'fair fight' when a car is involved !! He's got a bleed on his right lung with a drain in , 8 broken ribs and right collar bone broken !!! So far !! The Royal Stoke is an exemplar hospital and he is in very good hands there So I aim to get him a nice 'get well soon' card from us ALL at FTMNTC and we can sign it on Friday and give him our best wishes for a speedy recovery. Hopefully it'll be a bit of a morale booster...and with Xmas fast approaching its not a good time to have been 'in the wars' Get well soon Geese Sveikatus
  13. Another feast of tunes expected for this November gathering. You may notice our guest DJ's are not the same DJ's who do the 'circuit' week in week out. Whilst those do a sterling job...the DJ's we choose tend to be low profile/high quality selectors. Many don't post on here with their exploits here and there ...preferring a more selective approach HOWEVER don't let this confuse you...these DJ's are chosen for a reason !!!! No not neccessarily to put 'bums on seats' BUT to enhance the musical offering...and they do that with aplomb !!!
  14. WE look forward to welcoming both old and new 'enthusiasts' to our event ...its REAL friendly here ... no masonic type handshakes, no fashion shows. no stories of the Twisted Golden Casino , no awkward cliques . We don't take ourselves too seriously here...it aint a competition...its just a night out , and hopefully during the night...offering you something a little different Do hope you can join us x
  15. Smashed through the 1000 views mark again...this event has certainly sparked some interest again
  16. Again because of high demand there are a few suggestions for any that want an overnight stop the lamb Inn lion and swan Hotel the alexandra court hotel. All within a 5/10 min walk from the venue
  17. Demand will be high for this one ..guarranteed...so customer info re parking There is a small car park on site and roadside parking outside the venue . If both these options are full...then there are two car parks within a 5 minute walk of the venue West Street, CW12 1JR Antrobus Street, CW12 1HB
  18. Already a buzz around this one....
