Firstly "Happy New Year"to you all,hope your all well and had a great Christmas.Right here we go for our 1st do of 2022.Your all welcome to the "GENUINE"Something Different rhythm and soul club,based at a proper friendly working mens club in Shirebrook..we've decided to change our set up for 2022,we're going to do away with the 1pm starts and move to a 5pm start,so apologies go out to our loyal early visitors(you know who you are,and you know our reasons for the change) anyway we're still offering 8 hours of superb rhythm and soul supplied by,not DJs,but soul enthusiasts/collectors who just hav'nt jumped on the band wagon,but been around for years and really know their music.This month we've got one of our regulars up there on the decks as guest"GINNER"from Worksop,a lovely chap who very rarely misses our doos,and I'm sure his collection will get folk on the dancefloor.We're doing away with guest DJs this year,apart from our alldayers,but going to honor the people we invited before covid struck. ROGER BANKS will be in attendance with his record stall,in between his stints up there on stage.So in a nutshell,the STAFF SOULSPINNERS,ROGER BANKS,GINNER as guest,FREE entry,Talc friendly,a welcoming social club and great music.

Well what a way to end 2021,we did'nt know what to expect regarding numbers because of the ongoing situation the country is still in,but we were all blown away with the fantastic turn out,as always a steady stream of folk in the afternoon,by 7pm the room was filling up nicely,at 8pm we were comfortably full,even though a few of our regulars were sadly missing.Great selection of tunes played by STAFF SOULSPINNERS all of the 12 hours,I really am proud of these lads,the passion,knowledge and the stories they all have regarding their love of soul music is second to none and a pleasure to sit and listen to them.Like the staff soulspinners ROGER BANKS,1 of the nicest chaps I have ever met,also has knowledge of soul music and his passion really shines through when hes up there on the stage.Our special guest for the day was CHRIS DALTON,a Cleethorpes pier legend,2 fantastic faultless spots from Chris,another knowledgeable fella and a pleasure to be in his company.I could go on and on about this xmas alldayer,but I'll be in trouble with the powers that be so I better sign off.All the best and thanks for your loyal support Merry Christmas and a happy new year from all at Something Different Soul Club.

Just a slight alteration to our guest DJ lineup sadly SAUS cant make it due to unforeseen circumstances,but not to worry folks,we've managed to bring CHRIS DALTON in as replacement...so with JOHN MANSHIP we have 2 cleethorpes pier originals!!!
