I feel very lucky to be part of this scene of ours, I really love the friends I have made on it with all my heart . The music just gets better and better, I know I haven't been on the scene as long as a lot of folks, but my ears are always open to 60s and 70s sounds I haven't heard (I'm not a lover of more modern stuff, at least aint heard any I like, however would not stop it being played unless I was at a 60s/RnB do!)
I also love the etiquette of peeps at soul dos, I rarely venture to ordinary pubs/clubs, was at a local Wetherspoons a few months ago, went for a meal, myself and my female friends stayed for a while there, I went to the bar for drinks, someone had puked up by the bar. On the other side a girl who looked about 15 dropped her drink, it spilled over me and smashed all over the floor, I thought let me out of here and onto the places where I feel most at home amongst civilised folk on the soul/r&b scene Went straight home after that.
Sorry forgot to mention also love me 40s/50s Rnb too.
Also for the media/refosoul section for what the likes of Baz Atkinson/Toad/Ken/Thorsten/Soul Integrity et al post up. I absolutely love quite a lot of stuff that is posted up there quite a lot I don't know.
