Motor City Soul and Soul Brew's Big Night Out!!
Kathryn Magson commented on Kathryn Magson's event in Soul Nights
The Irish Centre has a good-sized room - holds up to 200 - but you'll need to get there early if you want a seat! There's been a lot of interest & we're expecting a very busy night! I asked the Irish Centre if they could give me a few sample bar prices so here goes:- San Miguel - 4.10 Carlsberg - 3.90 Guinness 4.25 Shorts - single - 3.75, but you can double up for an extra 2.00. Not bad eh? Much better than a lot of venues I've been to! -
My thoughts exactly - couldn't have put it better! It's becoming almost too embarrassing to say you like Northern now..... Have to say I saw the video & thought WTF!!!!!

FREE ENTRY! Best to get there early if you want a seat as it's always very busy! -

Halifax-based DJs from Motor City Soul Club & Soul Brew join forces with Dublin's Lucy Brennan, for an unforgettable night of storming tunes - best get those dancing shoes ready! -
I've just been to The Harold this afternoon to pay for the room hire - I was told that the function room has just been redecorated & the toilets are almost finished with a refurb. I would have liked to take a few pics now that it's all sounding so posh, but didn't like to ask cos I think the workmen were still up there & Chris (the club steward) was very busy in the downstairs bar. Sounds good though! But I DID manage to get some sample bar prices! Here goes:- Tetley's/John Smith's....... 3.70 Carling/Coors........ 4.00 Fosters....... 3.90 San Miguel...... 4.20r Guinness........ 4.30 Cider....... 3.60 Not bad eh?

Series 2 of Blue Lights is every bit as good as the first series! Also watching The Gone, on BBC iplayer. Based in New Zealand - it's good & well worth watching even if only for the scenery - it looks stunning!

I wouldn't have found it funny at the time but I can't help laughing now!

Hi all - it's Kath here with a bit of feedback from last night. First of all, Soul Brew would like to say thanks to all those who came to support us at our final night at The George - all the DJs absolutely smashed it & kept the dance floor busy all night. Special thanks must go to our guest DJ Mark Rice from Halifax Soul Club for his storming set! Thanks too to local author John Knight for bringing along a selection of his excellent novels for a book signing - all John's books make for a brilliant read! Soul Brew have a joint event planned with Halifax Soul Club at Halifax Irish Centre on Saturday 18th May, when The Time Tunnel's (Dublin) Lucy Brennan will be doing a guest spot. Friday June 21st will see the Soul Brew DJs setting up their sound system at The Harold Club in Low Moor, for their very first event there. Soul Brew's regular 2nd Sunday events at Jeremy's in Brighouse will still carry on as normal - for more info on all our events, please look us up on our Facebook page or find us on Soul Source. Once again - thanks for supporting us - thanks for dancing - we couldn't do it without you!

Tonight's the night folks - let's make it a night to remember!

The Soul Brew DJs will be spinning the vinyl - along with guest DJ Stuart Arber (Crigg Soul Club) - for our very first event in our new home. I'm SO looking forward to it - can't wait! I've been a regular at so many storming soul nights at The Harold it's going to feel like I've come home! The Harold Club's got it all - a friendly atmosphere - top-notch dance floor (sorry no talc allowed, but the floor's so good it really doesn't need it!) It's very easy to find on the main road with easy access from Chain Bar roundabout - a large car park - good transport links & the bar prices are at WMC rates! What more could we ask? Soul Brew have only just gone public with the news that we are moving our events to The Harold, but the response we've had from everyone up to now has all been very positive - so far, it's a massive thumbs up all round! Hope to see you on the dance floor

Well, there's only one more sleep until our last night at The George - have to say I've got mixed feelings! On the one hand all of us at Soul Brew will be very sad to say goodbye to the lovely Mead Hall, but also looking forward to setting up at our cracking new venue. On Saturday 18th May we have a one-off joint event planned with Motor City Soul Club at Halifax Irish Centre, when our guest DJ will be Lucy Brennan (from The Time Tunnel, Dublin). Have to say I'm really looking forward to that one! Then Friday 21st June will see Soul Brew setting up for our first event at our new venue - The Harold Club, Low Moor, Bradford! We've only very recently gone public with the news, but so far, we've had lots of very positive feedback from our friends on the soul scene about our new venture. I've been a regular at Harold soul nights for so long it'll feel a bit like going home for me! Soul Brew's regular at Jeremy's in Brighouse on the 2nd Sunday of the month will still carry on as normal. There's more info about our forthcoming events on Soul Source events page. Onwards & upwards as they say! See you on the dance floor......

Motor City Soul and Soul Brew's Big Night Out!!
Kathryn Magson posted a soul guide event in Soul Nights
OK - bit of a story behind this one. Soul Brew had a fantastic DJ booked (Lucy Brennan from The Time Tunnel, Dublin) for the weekend 18th May, but unfortunately without warning, the venue suddenly pulled the plug on us! We couldn't possibly let this opportunity go as Lucy has booked her flight & hotel accommodation for the weekend. Sooooo....Soul Brew have got together with our mates at Motor City Soul Club to put on a one-off event at Halifax Irish Centre! Two local Soul Clubs will be joining together to put on a cracking night not to be missed - there will be a great line up of DJs playing some storming tunes!! After this one-off special, Motor City will be back to their usual third Sunday of every month events & Soul Brew will be taking up residence at their NEW VENUE - The Harold Club in Low Moor, Bradford. Their first event at The Harold will be on Friday 21st June - another night not to be missed! Isn't it great to see good mates working together? Can't beat it can you? See you on the dance floor folks! -
We were very happy at the George & we'll all be very sad to say goodbye to it, but these things happen . I can't really say too much just yet, but Soul Brew have plans........one door closes & another opens as they say..........all I can say is let's make our last night at The George a cracker & watch this space......

Local author John Knight will be joining us for our last night at The George. He will be bringing with him a selection of signed copies of his Jimmy Mack novels - all based on the life of a young 1960s Mod. I can promise you an excellent read! "The series celebrates the swinging Sixties, with a detailed look at life in 1960s Britain. Set in the fashion industry of the time, it explores the impact that it had on life. Multi-faceted themes explore societal change, politics, the power of the establishment, the class divide, the sexual revolution, religion, crime, and much more through an existentialist eye. As in all the previous novels, there is a soundtrack. Each chapter is prefaced with a recording that lends itself thematically to the written words and acts as a backdrop to the content."

It'll be very sad to say goodbye to The George - we've had some cracking nights there, but all good things come to an end! Can't really say too much at the mo, but we have plans so watch this space!

Sadly, this will be our last night at The George so let's make it a cracker! -
Thanks for sharing - very interesting read.

Members Introductions - Welcome to Soul Source
Kathryn Magson replied to Source Team's topic in Freebasing
My first all-nighter was at The Golden Disc in Keighley (aged 15 - my parents would have killed me if they'd known!) Also tried Blackpool Mecca, The Birdtrap, Lord Jim's, Plebs (Halifax) & String o' Beads (Bradford) but mostly it was The Wheel (Whitworth St) for me & then either The Blue Note or Top 20 on a Sunday morning - I was there pretty much every weekend without fail from 1966-1970. Fab times & I'd love to turn back the clock & do it all again! -
Glad you had a good night Rob - it's always great to hear some new tunes!
