Hi Kaya/Niki and all, I don't know if you saw my message the other week. The gig for Easter if you're up for it is Loudon Castle, Galston,Ayrshire in sunny (not), very windy/stormy Scotland. Two rooms, upstairs Southport/Togetherness Saturday afternoon type stuff with Terry J, myself, Cj and some lads from up here.Downstairs. soulful garage with other creditable worthies plus Tell and me again. This should be the event of the spring. Holds 300, tickets out in a couple of weeks. You know how good Colors was, this should be even better!!

Roz with President Bush in Atlanta, Georgia, USA at 18:1:24 Thursday January 31 2002
I got given a ticket so got in to see El Presidente! Kaya, I do believe that Club Kaya is indeed a classy joint, I will attempt Mr. Bennetts' attempt Mr. Bennett's 'not queuing or paying stance' and see how I get on. My lip was very stiff Doris during the President's address and I asked him to big up the Soulboys and Soulgirls of the UK!

Nik at 17:44:12 Thursday January 31 2002
Steve I've fixed it now.... still 8 hours fast though ;o))

Weekesie at 17:31:23 Thursday January 31 2002
Allo maaates

Kaya at 17:24:1 Thursday January 31 2002
Allo Nik, what you testing?

Niki at 17:23:34 Thursday January 31 2002
ignore me....

Niki at 17:23:13 Thursday January 31 2002
Testing

Kaya at 16:22:41 Thursday January 31 2002
Allo maaates! Roz, Club Kaya sounds like a classy place. Let us know what it's like...Doris, 'stiff upper lip'? Fnarr fnarr!

Doris at 15:27:28 Thursday January 31 2002
Roz - just remember to keep a stiff upper lip!

Roz at 15:5:24 Thursday January 31 2002
Hi Lee, I've heard good things about Club Kaya, don't worry I was wary too - wondered whether everyone would be subjected to a nipple inspection on entry? I'm surrounded by 'Southern Belle's' here it's just like Gone With The Wind and frankly I dont' give a damn!! Off to change into my stars and stripes outfit - NOT see ya, Roz

Lee at 13:56:0 Thursday January 31 2002
Roz - Club Kaya!!!! Alarm bells are ringing.. loudly!!!!

Lee at 13:51:40 Thursday January 31 2002
Niki - Sad as it sounds, I do look at the old entries for references to certian chooones. Having said that I only look through recent ones. Your thinking of Falmer Palmer from Viz who said 'Get orrrff moi llllland', and you're right it was Finbar Saunders. Roger Melle was a fav of mine along with Johnny Fartypants, Terry F&*kwit, Buster Gonad & the Pathetic Sharks :o)

Roz awaiting the President in Atlanta, Georgia, USA at 13:41:8 Thursday January 31 2002
Hi Gang, is it true that Frank's dead! So out of touch here in the USA!! President Bush is expected here at the hotel at 12.00 today so the security is out in force. I'm off to Club Kaya on Friday night for some sweet soul music! Kaya didn't know you had a club here in Atlanta!

Matt at 13:39:36 Thursday January 31 2002
This weekend kicks off with SPIRIT @ The Clinic, in case any of y'all were at a loose end. By now, I expect you know the Bobby Moore so I guess we'll see you's down there.

Niki at 13:18:2 Thursday January 31 2002
Oooooops! :o)))) Spoke to TJ who so adamant the Shaun Escoffrey gig @ Dingwalls is tonight that Fat Tel had to go home to get the tickets - and it's next Thursday. Sorry Tel, Neill & Drumstix maaates!!!

Niki at 13:13:54 Thursday January 31 2002
I've had to split this month's Forum archive in two the file size is so flippin massive. The busiest month so far entry-wise. And what a load of old bollox!! Does anyone actually read back through that crap or shall I get rid of it?

Niki at 13:9:31 Thursday January 31 2002
Or was he the one who was tighter than a gnat's chuff? And who was the farmer bod who said Get Orrrf moi land? I can only remember the catch phrases!!

Niki at 13:8:13 Thursday January 31 2002
MaB, ooo you are awful! You just made me giggle...... Who was the Viz bod who used to say Fnarr Fnarr - was it Finbar Saunders or something?

Lee at 12:38:41 Thursday January 31 2002
Hiya maB - Dream, sounds more like a nightmare ;o)

maB at 12:27:21 Thursday January 31 2002
Lee - Had a freaky dream that you were starting back on 24-7in my old slot of 7 till 10 on Fridays!!

Lee at 12:12:16 Thursday January 31 2002
Niki - Make sure you keep your head high when you look at him ;o)

maB at 12:10:3 Thursday January 31 2002
Morning - Niki, I feel another Carry On / Benny Hill comment coming on !!!!

Niki at 11:54:40 Thursday January 31 2002
Anyone on here any good with Perl Scripting?

Niki at 11:54:18 Thursday January 31 2002
Lee, no rest for the wicked mate! I've gotta hook up with Eddie Piller later today or tomorrow about the Acid Jazz Web-site.... how am I gonna look him in the face after that Xmas Party pic? :o))

Lee at 11:11:17 Thursday January 31 2002
Niki - What's up, stressful day already!! Anyway what are you doing up so early ;o)

Niki at 10:24:1 Thursday January 31 2002
In fact, I'm sure it is........

Niki at 9:15:2 Thursday January 31 2002
Anyone got any funny stories? I think today is gonna be one of them......

Lee at 9:11:21 Thursday January 31 2002
Morning.. yawn!

Niki at 8:56:59 Thursday January 31 2002

Kaya at 3:12:55 Thursday January 31 2002
Quick correction for y'all. Peggy's actual birthday is next Friday (8th) and she'll be having drinks at Shoeless Joe's in Victoria, there won't be Dj's at the bar, just ALCOHOL!! The Birthday party will be held in the summer, at a date to be confirmed and will feature DJ's, etc. Just wanted to make that clear. If you know Peggy, I know you'll want to be there, just to take the p*ss out of her reaching that age that we don't like to talk about...:O)

Weekesie at 20:55:53 Wednesday January 30 2002
Niki that was not me asleep. That was jet lag. The head scratching thing. I had thought about something about a month earlier and the answer was just coming to me.

Beverly in at work in Suitland MD, USA at 20:28:26 Wednesday January 30 2002
Niki, love the pictures! I especially love CD wearing the 'Christmas Cheese'. Looks like a great time was had by all! Brite Eyes

Gilo at 19:44:34 Wednesday January 30 2002
Excellent pics Niki - what excellent nights they both were !! I must get out more !! I can feel a weekender comin on !!

Niki at 19:13:52 Wednesday January 30 2002
The Seabright pics are brilliant... wot a great night that was! Weeksie, two questions: why were you asleep standing up? and why were you scratching your head whilst DJing at the end?

Niki at 19:5:48 Wednesday January 30 2002
Seabright pics are up. You're all going to have to wait for the others - QDos3, Lightwater, Boat, Lacy Lady, Disco @ the Orsett, Chocolate Soul, New Year & The Rocket - too many photos for one person to cope with......

The Scroll Bar Police at 18:50:2 Wednesday January 30 2002
SWAT!!!! You are arrested in the name of Forum aesthetics. You have the right to remain silent........

Roz at 16:17:41 Wednesday January 30 2002

Roz - do us a favour and lend the chef some rat poison.

President Bush at 15:35:38 Wednesday January 30 2002
Cough, cough, choke, errrrrhh! Bloody chef!!!!!

I wonder if Nurse Ratchett plays out - those CHOOONS are awesome????

Jim (From Taxi) in E=MC2 - Does it FOOOK? at 10:10:0 Wednesday January 30 2002
Who threw that cigarette butt down the leg of me trousers? Well, what's a 'flux capacitor' between friends?

SWAT at 10:9:25 Wednesday January 30 2002
Jester or should that be Nurse Ratchett

The Jester in Did something move in those trees out there?? at 9:42:35 Wednesday January 30 2002
.......Personally I think my best role was in 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' - Mornin' all; had a night off last night and watched 'Predator', again????? Niki - Nice pictures; any of The Sebright going up anywhere???

SWAT at 8:54:14 Wednesday January 30 2002
By the way Weeksie Jester IS the mad scientist in Back to The Future

SWAT at 8:47:33 Wednesday January 30 2002
Mornin all be warned I've just recieved this virus warning "Beware of a new virus arriving as an email with the subject line "new photos from my party!" It contains an innocuous looking file attachment called www.myparty.yahoo.com. A message in the body of the email reads: "Hello! My party... It was absolutely amazing! I have attached my web page with new photos! If you can please make color prints of my photos. Thanks!" Sorry to start the day on a downer mates.

Weekesie just looking at the Soul24-7 pictures at 4:10:0 Wednesday January 30 2002
Is it me or does The Jester look like the mad scientist in Back to the future. Jest(er) observation.

Niki at 2:8:17 Wednesday January 30 2002
24-7 Xmas pics link from front page of www.Soul24-7.com

Niki at 1:53:39 Wednesday January 30 2002
Morning maaaates... well I only managed to get the Spirit and Soul 24-7 Xmas Party Pics done. Uploading the 24-7 ones now. I've had to censor Eddie's knob but if anyone really wants to see it - mail me!

Mr Carr at 1:18:3 Wednesday January 30 2002
Night Maaaaaaaaates!

maB at 1:12:59 Wednesday January 30 2002
Its a lonely life being a long distance lorry driver..

maB at 1:11:45 Wednesday January 30 2002
Maria - Any prizes for guessing Mr Carrs first name LOL!!

Mr Carr at 1:11:40 Wednesday January 30 2002
Not too harsh at all young lady!!

Weekesie at 1:10:50 Wednesday January 30 2002
Ok this time I am really leaving. Talk to you good people tomorrow. Night

Weekesie at 1:7:45 Wednesday January 30 2002
I think that was harsh too. Where does he live? We need to send the boys over.

Maria P at 1:6:34 Wednesday January 30 2002
Went red Weekesie, then the next day caught me smoking, put me on a week detention, which by the way Mr Carr if your lurking, I still to this day think that was a little too harsh!!

Weekesie at 1:5:2 Wednesday January 30 2002
maB what about this one form the same email. One of the most awkward things that can happen in a pub is when your pint to toilet cycle get synchronised with a complete stranger

Maria P at 1:2:50 Wednesday January 30 2002
And another time.......No maybe not!!

Mr Carr at 1:2:18 Wednesday January 30 2002
I still havn't forgotten that young Lady!

Weekesie at 1:1:36 Wednesday January 30 2002
maybe i'll stay for a while, what did Mr Carr say or do?

Maria P at 1:1:29 Wednesday January 30 2002
EMBARRASSING!!

Maria P at 1:0:33 Wednesday January 30 2002
It's cool Weekesie, it happends to the best of us! Try this one for size....Me getting caught by Mr Carr, passing a note across the school desk to my freind Carrol, Telling her I knew what she wanted to do with Mr Carrs certain body part

Weekesie leaving work at a reasonable time for a change. at 1:0:31 Wednesday January 30 2002
Night maB, Maria and the rest of the insomniacs.

The most embarrass in g thing you can do as a school child is.. at 0:51:19 Wednesday January 30 2002
..... to call your teacher mum or dad

maB say in g "go on admit it - you do..." at 0:49:38 Wednesday January 30 2002

The worst part is that I had free tickets for Sunday courtesy of Luther's Tour Manager but didn't find out till it was too late!! Hey ho. Sorry to say that it's really hot and sunny here as well - you probably didn't want to hear that! Love and miss you all guys. Niki have a great Spirit on Friday. Dawn have a wicked birthday.

Hi Niki, Lufa was in excellent form last night, oh look there goes Koby Bryant of the Lakers walking past - my but he's tall....it's just star spotting all the time. Lee, twas an excellent night apart from the scarey walk home but what the heck I needed the exercise! I'll let you know if I see any more famous peeps during my stay....love to you all from Atlanta. Mother Theresa, you would have loved it last night!

Niki at 17:45:19 Tuesday January 29 2002
Allo maaate, I think I've heard every tune off the Modern Anthems CD I sent you over these last couple of weekends!!! And I'm listening to them at home now....

Weekesie at 17:41:18 Tuesday January 29 2002
Allo Niki maaate

Niki hav in g a Corey Blake moment.... at 17:39:45 Tuesday January 29 2002
You just can't beat those Modern Anthems!

Niki at 17:13:51 Tuesday January 29 2002
This evening I shall mostly be starting on the photos from December..... you should have QDoS 3, Xmas Spirit, Lightwater (SDS have you got any more pics for me?) and Soul 24-7 Xmas Party before the night's out..... maybe.

Lee at 16:5:42 Tuesday January 29 2002
Does anybody have any memories of a pub in Dunstable called the crown?? It has a newpaper article on the window about how the place has a history of playing real 60 & 70's soul music. Current DJ is DJ Duncan (anybody heard of him?) playing every Saturday. I think this might be worth checking out. The 16th of Feb looks a bit empty on the events calendar, who want's it?

Lee at 15:59:5 Tuesday January 29 2002
SWAT - 'ello maate, don't think I'm up for the Brighton trip. There's just soooo much going on. Niki - Glad you like the track. I found a double of the Odds & Ends 'Let me try' last night too (a promo copy)!!!!! I think I might keep my grubby little hands on that though ;o) Roz - Sounds like you had a dam good night. Did Lufa have many super soul cats with him :o)

Niki at 15:51:21 Tuesday January 29 2002
SWAT, okee dokee. I've definitely started something with that - heard Stevie Cee play it at the Rocket on Sat too.

SWAT at 15:47:40 Tuesday January 29 2002
Niki I have your choon but its unlikely our paths are gonna cross for sometime. Get in touch & we can sort something out!!

Niki at 15:29:40 Tuesday January 29 2002
Lee, "Don't You See I'm Crazy About You"... chooooooon!

Niki at 15:29:3 Tuesday January 29 2002
SWAT, I probably will be going to Brighton......

Niki at 15:24:50 Tuesday January 29 2002
Afternoon all. Roz, we're not jealous in the slightest #sulk# Did u tell Lufa that I want to live on his planet??? Just heard from Neil ooop Norf. He sends his love to all and had a wicked weekend.... apparently the women are good looking and the music is better dahn Sarf. We have a convert to the soft Southern way :o))))) So I think we have a new Soulboys North East Agent - Agent MM (Messy Massey)!!!!

Roz post Luther Vandross in Atlanta, Georgia USA at 13:45:50 Tuesday January 29 2002
Right where to start: dress code for the Fox Theatre, ladies spike heels and off the shoulder numbers, faux fur. Gents, suits (preferably zoot + matching hat) or a very very shiney shirt preferably in some extint animal print (mr. Bennett you'd so be the belle of the ball here). Someone should'a told me jeans and a tee-shirt were a no no! Excellent atmosphere with flute glasses of bubbly in the aisles. The gig: Luther started with two tracks off the new album including Can I take you out tonight, then went into classics like never too much, here and now.......then joined on stage by Johnny Gil, Bobby Brown! Backing singers included; Cat from Sounds of Blackness, Lead singer from Ray, Goodman & Brown who brought the house down with 'I found love on a one way street'. Overall a bloody excellent night. I was sandwiched between too veeeery much in love couples aaah they were very friendly as have all the Georgia people I've met so far. Seems like the line guys use the flatter women is 'go on with yo pretty self' mmmmmnnn not sure about that. Lee - wish I hadn't taken your advice to walk home after the show. Seemed like a good idea as there were lots of people walking however after two blocks they all disappeared and I found myself alone - apart from the weirdos and down and outs and the lap dancing clubs!! Made it safely back to the Marriott - us South London Girls don't mess about! Off now for brekkie and to enjoy the expected 75oF sunshine. See ya all soon. Roz

Maria P at 13:22:31 Tuesday January 29 2002

A little old Jewish boy spend's a night at the "Dog's", and this one greyhound win's every single race,totally amazed, he offer's to buy it from the trainner, after the meeting, only to be told it is not for sale.The following morning, the trainner wake's up, to find the greyhound,flat on it's back,as dead as a Dodo.Having the old boy's calling card, he nail's the greyhound to a skateboard,ring's the old boy,who hand's over £500 for it.After a week, the trainner can stand it no more, and ring's the Jew boy,"That greyhound I sold you was dead",the old boy replied,"I know,I made £1,000 on it",totally amazed the trainner asked,"How the hell did you make £1,000 on a dead greyhound?",the old boy explained,"I raffled it,1,000 people at £1 a ticket,£1,000",still amazed,the trainner asked,"What about the guy who won it?",the old boy replied,"Well,he moaned a bit,so,I gave him his pound back"BOOM,BOOM!

Niki at 20:24:43 Monday January 28 2002
Hiya Claire, how are you feeling today? Will you be returning to the Rocket next month? What have the Levine-haters got to say today? Massive congratulations to Paul & Kev for such a resounding success. I expect they both have a few more grey hairs this morning - and what a night!!! Fantastic sets from Stevie, Ralph & Terry - everything from 6ts to yesterday - so dispel those '7ts only' rumours right now!!! Can't remember much about Ian Levine's set, but I think I was still dancing and I think it was he who played Brown Sugar "The Game Is Over" and I LOVE that tune. Bit heavy on the Northern/oldies/slowies towards the end I thought but I was just a little bit worse for wear by that point..... :o)

Nick P at 20:15:39 Monday January 28 2002
HELLO FOLKS!! Long time, no see. How is everyone?? Having a night catching up, just booked Caister & seeing who is about??

Evening all.......superb to see some of you lot Saturday Night at The Rocket.....I'll keep it brief as I'm still "shell-shocked" but I am attaching a "Thank You" from Paul Clarke, one of the promoters as requested......ENJOY XX Hi to everyone Firstly my apologies for not posting this yesterday. I had intended to but a concoction of tiredness, having to return equipment to people from whom we'd hired it and a problem with the internet server, meant that I was unable to. Well Saturday night eh? I think I'd struggle to sum it up better than Ian,the word is WOW. In all my dreams, and even at my most optimistic I could never have dreamed it would be that good, that awesome, that mind blowing. Thank you all so very much for your congratulations and reviews of the evening. It would be really easy for me to sit here and take credit for it but, at the end of the day that superb electric atmosphere was created by each and every one of you that turned up and I thank you so, so much for your contribution. Yes the building, the music and DJs all helped create the right environment, but it could never have worked without the buzz created by all of you, it simply would not have happened so once again a very special thank you to all of you who came. As much as Saturday was a success though, it will only ever be special and mean something if it pushes on from here. I don't want to burst anyone's bubble, but first night at The Rocket will only be special if it now builds from the superb platform that Saturday gave us. So I'm asking all of you personally please come back on February 23rd if it is at all possible to do so, and keep coming back whenever you can. Please tell your friends and acquaintances how good the venue is, how good the atmosphere was and encourage them to come. After this weekend I am more convinced than ever that this venue is going to work, but it will only do so as long as you continue to make it happen. I promise you that Kev and I will work as hard as we can to better the standard set by the first one. Hopefully in years to come, when it is all we hope for, you will be able to look back on Saturday and say "I was there on opening night of The Rocket". Such a statement though can only mean something if The Rocket becomes the major venue it surely now deserves to be, and we really need your help with that. If we don't build on Saturday night, then in time it will have only been a night out, no matter how great that night was. Thanks too for all the constructive criticism that has been posted. If we are to get better then we need that feed back from you and when we have our debriefing with the venue owners we will do all we can to ensure the problems are rectified before February 23rd. The fact that you have bothered at all shows us that you care, and as such we actively encourage you to let us know what can be improved. Ian has set the precedent for the DJs by opening the debate on his spot in The Modern Room, no F.O.A.D. just a polite "is this what people want?" Nothing is too sacred. We set out to create a club where the punters can really feel they belong, we can only do that if you let us know when something is wrong. Finally I wanted to re-iterate my thanks to you all for making it on Saturday, especially those of you that travelled long distances. I could never have begun to imagine an atmosphere so spine tingingly electric, both dance floors so enthusiastic nor a crowd so fired up and friendly. A serious thanks to you and respect to you all. I was going to say you made all my dreams come true, but in all honesty I could never have dreamed this. I really can't say it enough thanks so much once again. Cheers Paul

Hello Charlie Brown, I am much nicer than Hazel and want the recording more than she does. My e-mail is jane.maguire@jmc.com. Hazel only pretends to like decent music but is actually a fan of purist pop. I am surprised that she is chatting on the Forum today as I thought she was still in mourning over Kym leaving Hearsay. Hope you can help. Thanks.

hazel at 16:32:58 Monday January 28 2002

Did you get my e-mail with the ladies with the huge la la's, very funny. Please don't expect me to say anything interesting cos my head hurts a lot. Send me a reply and make me laugh. PS: Please will you buy me a car? If you do, I will come and see you more often and drive to Southport. Thanks.

Hazel in having a "moment" at 16:9:34 Monday January 28 2002

Watcha soulies, sorry to have missed you at The Rocket and Seabright but had a plane to catch - it's a tough job but someone's gotta do it well me and Steve Ryder anyway who was on my flight. Chillin in my 'sweet suite' on the 45th floor of the Marriott in downtown Atlanta, hopefully off to see Luther in concert tonight. I'm sure I came here for another reason......oh yeah WORK - but that can wait. Glad to hear that you all had a good time at the Rocket and Seabright. Mr. Wennett, thought you were parading the new 'swedish' bird on Saturday? Did the Boateng leave you too strapped for cash or were you giving your eyes a rest what with the new glasses and everything? Or are you simply green with envy? Take care y'all see you soon. Off for Pancakes, syrup and anything else on offer in the executive lounge.......tough I know.....Roz

Mother T, was not really in the mood for another 70's night after Choc Soul on Friday. So stayed in, cooked old ma a Goan Curry (Go-an cook your own). Fashion oh, wait until you see my latest buy. You think the orange suit was pimp-ish. A new shade of green has been created and funny enough the lining is Soulboys purple background. Might save it for Bob Jeffries Scottish Castle gig in the spring.

SWAT at 10:13:25 Monday January 28 2002

Stevie C - can you get in touch mate re: the Soul II Soul CD.

CD-looking for my voice at 18:57:57 Sunday January 27 2002
A Big Thanks, to all company last night at the Ministry, (in no particular order) Debbie, Marta, Neill, Chi, Goose, Steve, GAH Tony, Ms Watts, Luke and Co. I have to say that musically that was the best night I’ve ever had at MOS since 93’ when MAW were in the house with Feat. India as PA. Although we spent an hour and a half queuing in the cold rain, it was worth it. When we got inside, we warmed up in the small bar upstairs where (DJ ?) was playing Soul (only a lickel bit cheesy but not too much) We then moved on into the club room, where we were treated to a 4 hour set by Louie Vega, with Hard Drive on some huge funky guitar and keyboards! LV really does know how to work a crowd!!! What more can one say?……………………… But :o))))))))))))))))

Mother Theresa in Calcutta (well, Morden) at 17:16:59 Sunday January 27 2002
Lots of fun in the Holloway Road last night. Mr Bennett where were you mate? Surrey Hants & Dorset were out in force, and you couldn't be bothered to come from the Kennels in SE21? Did Mummy refuse to let you out in case you made another fashion faux-pas?

Weekesie Chillin on a warm sunny SoCal Sunday morning at 17:10:55 Sunday January 27 2002

The first Chocolate Soul Of 2002 for me was Feckin' AWESOME! Great sets from All THE DJs, I arrived about 10.30 and just managed to catch the end of Carl Ds set. Brownie played like I've never heard him play before...That Man gets better every time! As far as punters go, it was quieter than usual, the atmosphere in the bar was absolutely wicked, with some serious hot stepping on the floor, arms in the air and the usual singing along all in all once again a very pleasant and entertaining Chocolate Soul!..............There how's that for ya DCML?

#Oh but the hottest fever cools those who won't face that fact are fools for like all man time over-rules a Ladies Man.

At first I tried to hide my loss pretending I was still The Boss with girls who'd never come across a Ladies Man. But they moved too swift to step I needed patience more than pep to keep alive my fading rep a Ladies Man.#

Kaya... this fits in so nicely with our conversation this afternoon (when you turned into a delicate flower) but I think Mr Bennet should know that most of the women he associates with "don't queue and won't pay "!

Kaya at 17:18:28 Friday January 25 2002
DCML, where Mr Bennet is concerned, more like : "What does 'queue' mean?"!

Kaya at 17:16:43 Friday January 25 2002
Bloody poofter!

Roz at 17:10:50 Friday January 25 2002
Pistachio Mr. Bennett, in January, with your colouring! Orderly means 'I will be placing an order do you accept credit cards ladies' isn't that right Mr.B? I can see that it'll be 'bitter chocolate soul' tonight!

DCML at 17:1:22 Friday January 25 2002
Steve... what does "orderly" mean?

Steve Bennett at 16:46:21 Friday January 25 2002
It's a bit wet out for the green. Let's have another rumage. Gay rumours? Single ladies form an orderly queue.

peggy at 16:33:57 Friday January 25 2002
Hi Kaya, Hi Niki - hope your both doing fine?

Kaya at 16:19:15 Friday January 25 2002
Afternoon all! Now that was a sleepathon!! Who's getting down to Choccie Soul early to hear the fantastic Carl D spin som top-notch soul? As much as I like the S.M.E.R.S.H. bar, you lot don't half miss some blinding stuff by turning up late!

Niki at 16:13:20 Friday January 25 2002
Afternoon all. Bribo, Wayne wants someone to do web-work for Solar. Much as I need the work, and have nothing against Solar, I think there may be a conflict of interest!!

SWAT at 16:8:23 Friday January 25 2002
Matt check yer E-mail.

Matt at 16:0:10 Friday January 25 2002

Lee at 13:50:13 Friday January 25 2002
Steve - So you're going to look like a walking snooker table, nice!!!!! Will you take the easy brown or the long pink ;o)

SWAT at 13:47:18 Friday January 25 2002
DCLM we "south London Boys" are always well behaved. Our mums brough us up proper like

Mr Polari at 13:44:21 Friday January 25 2002
Green sooooooooooooooo last year. Those who talk the talk should walk the walk

DCML at 13:37:57 Friday January 25 2002
Swat, all that matters to me is that the people of South London are well behaved tonight ! They can behave how they like tomorrow!!

Roz in Luscious Leatherhead at 13:36:54 Friday January 25 2002
Mr. Bennett, will you be endeavouring to fuel the gay rumours again tonight? If so who'se throat will your tongue be down in Gary Dennis's absence? Anyway Green is last year's brown I've been told.

SWAT at 13:33:16 Friday January 25 2002
Lee Iam a South London boy as opposed to a "sarf London Boy" (these things matter)

Steve Bennett at 13:28:21 Friday January 25 2002
Choco Soul, I Don't Queue, And I Don't Pay. Do you hear me? Another of me faves is, Do You Know Who I Am? I must try these at The Rocket. I fancy my green number tonight that has not had a spin since June.

Lee at 13:25:32 Friday January 25 2002
SWAT - Let's not go there again ;o) What's your ETD for tonight?

DCML at 13:25:21 Friday January 25 2002
Swat - I haven't been told yet - near to here (SE1) I suppose. Still whingeing very hard to get out of it though -on the basis that I remember very little from my criminal law training - won't look very good if I have to get my textbooks out will it!

SWAT at 13:20:28 Friday January 25 2002
DCLM define "South London"

Soul boys at 13:6:49 Friday January 25 2002

Boo hoo.. I can't come out to play tonight. Boss has very kindly put me on the duty solicitor scheme this evening. I will be covering police stations in south london - I hope not to have to deal with any of you on your way home.... have a great time though x

Doris at 10:28:15 Friday January 25 2002
Lee, drop me your number and I'll buzz you!

Lee at 9:47:50 Friday January 25 2002
Doris - I can't be too acurate about time, public transport is a lovely thing. I should be able to get in to London about 8ish though. How about a few at the Smersh Bar before getting to Catch for Carl's set? The dodgy drinks sounds dangerous to me. Tonight I shall mostly be drinking larger & Vodka (not in the same glass)!!!!

Donna at 8:55:1 Friday January 25 2002
Andy - the peasure is mine! Try hooking up with Weekesie if you think your liver can take it! But remember what it did to Gilo!!

Weekesie wondering about the craziness of the music industry. at 23:48:56 Thursday January 24 2002
I have just read that EMI have released Mariah Carey from her contract and paid her 28 million dollars. This in an attempt to cut costs. Who would like to have a job where you are asked not to work and then paid millions to not work. What is wrong with this picture?

A police officer in Ohio responded to a 911 call. She had no details before arriving, except that someone had reported that his father was not breathing. Upon arrival, the officer found the man face down on the couch naked. When she rolled him over to check for a pulse and to start CPR, she noticed burn marks around his genitals. After the ambulance arrived and removed the man - who was declared dead on arrival at the hospital - the police made a closer inspection of the couch, and noticed that the man had made a hole between the cushions. Upon flipping the couch over, they discovered what had caused his death. Apparently, the man had a habit of putting his penis between the cushions, down into the hole and between two electrical sanders (with the sandpaper removed, for obvious reasons). According to the story, after his orgasm the discharge shorted out one of the sanders, electrocuting him.

Three Brazilian men were flying in a light aircraft at low altitude when another plane approached. It appears that they decided to moon the occupants of the other plane, but lost control of their own aircraft and crashed. They were all found dead in the wreckage with their pants around their ankles.

maB's squirmy - but true - stories in dont try this at home at 22:9:37 Thursday January 24 2002
Gilo - Cant be as bizzzzzare as this one.. A 34-year-old white male found dead in the basement of his home died of suffocation, according to police. He was approximately 6'2" tall and weighed 225 pounds. He was wearing a pleated skirt, white bra, black and white saddle shoes,and a woman's wig. It appeared that he was trying to create a schoolgirl's uniform look. He was also wearing a military gas mask that had the filter canister removed and a rubber hose attached in its place. The other end of the hose was connected to a one end of a hollow wooden tube approx. 12" long and 3" in diameter. The tube's other end was inserted into his rectum for reasons unknown, and was the cause of his suffocation. Police found the task of explaining the circumstances of his death to his family very awkward.

SteveB at 11:59:54 Thursday January 24 2002
Ethel would charge around the nursing home, taking corners on one wheeland getting up to maximum speed on the long corridors. Because the poor woman was one sandwich short of a picnic, the other residents tolerated her,and some of the males actually joined in. One day, Ethel was speeding up one corridor when a door opened and Kooky Clarence stepped out with his arm outstretched. "STOP!", he said in a firm voice. "Have you got a license for that thing?" Ethel fished around in herhandbag and pulled out a Kit Kat wrapper and held it up to him. "OK" hesaid, and away Ethel sped down the hall. As she took the corner near the TV lounge on one wheel, Weird Harold poppedout in front of her and shouted, "STOP! Have you got proof of insurance?" Ethel dug into her handbag, pulled out a beer coaster and held it up to him. Harold nodded and said, "Carry on, ma'am." As Ethel neared the final corridor before the front door, Crazy Craig stepped out in front of her, stark naked, holding a very sizable erection in his hand. "Oh, God," said Ethel, "not the breathalyser again!"

How many times are you going to make me boil before you get round to making a cuppa????

Niki at 1:29:16 Thursday January 24 2002
Yeah but in order to translate it you will have to write it all out in good portugese......

CD at 1:28:17 Thursday January 24 2002
Erh Niki....First I'd like to learn the words by listening to the tune up to 30 times a day, then I want the lyrics translated so that I know what I'm singing!! And then if I like them I may want to sing seductively in some chap ear! eh shall I try again?

maB rough in g it as something like... at 1:27:17 Thursday January 24 2002
Another "silly" thing you translate back in English. Well that was a waste of time ?

Niki at 1:25:34 Thursday January 24 2002
MaB, stick MSN on. I've got something to whisper in your shell-like.

Niki at 1:24:44 Thursday January 24 2002
MaB, It was 'silly' actually. You will have to work the rest out for yourself ;o)

Niki just jok in g at 1:23:40 Thursday January 24 2002
The groundsman at Upton Park slept in one day and in a panic he ran to catch the bus, not wanting to be late. He tripped and the sole of his shoe caught the pavement, tearing it at the front so that when he walked it made a flapping motion. "Oh No!" he said, "I've no other shoes, I'll need to just walk carefully". He went about his duties seeing to the turf as there was a big game coming up, but his toes were freezing and he kept tripping on the flapping sole. Just at that moment, Terry Brown, the West Ham chairman, came on to the pitch. TB: "I've noticed you limping, are you alright?" Groundsman: "I tripped this morning running for the bus and the sole of my shoe is flapping." He showed Terry his foot. TB: "Why dont you go at lunch time and buy a new pair?" Groundsman: "I don't get paid until next week and can't afford to buy a new pair until then." TB went into his inside pocket and pulled out a roll of £20 notes held tight with an elastic band . "You work for West Ham United Football Club! We can't have you going around like that till next week!" He peeled of the elastic band and smiled. "Here wrap this round your shoe until you can get a new pair."

I recently (under the influence of course) pulled a guy on the Thursday night and thought I'd pulled him again on the Saturday to realise the next morning it was a different man altogether - but hey I am a blonde Essex girl.

That usually only works when you later see the "hunk" you thought you were snogging @ the last do!

DCML at 0:7:39 Thursday January 24 2002
Doris, for some reason we managed not to see one another at Qdos - it might have been the amount of birthday drinks I admit, but so far I've stuck with the "she changed her hairstyle" excuse!

Doris at 0:5:54 Thursday January 24 2002
How could anyone not recognise her!

DCML at 0:4:13 Thursday January 24 2002
Niki, does the new hairstyle mean I still won't recognise CD?

Niki at 0:4:7 Thursday January 24 2002
In the style of Brenda Russell's on the cover of the 12 of In The Thick Of It"

Review for Cagneys in Bournemouth on Saturday night....... Another great Soul doo that we should have been to before and will definitely go to again. Kaya & I arrived at about 10pm after a nice tour of Southampton cos the M27 was closed. We followed the 'Diversion' signs to a roundabout which had 'diversion' pointers at every exit except one.... we took the only one which didn't have a sign and ended up half-way to Portsmouth. Aaaanyway, Cagney's is a nice little venue under the Hilton Hotel opposite the Pavillion. It's set on two levels with the dancefloor and bar on the lower level and a short flight of steps to a platformy bit where the entrance door and loos are. Nicely decorated, cosy and with places to chill. The ladies loo is nothing short of palatial (we girls like to know these things you know - very important!) All the 'Down Southers' were in attandance as it was the combined 40th Birthday bash for Mark, Jay and Sue! And what a crowd! Remarkable for being so great looking!!! Can't really explain it but lots of shiny happy, good looking, youngish, slimish people, well into their Soul music - and as many women as men. A nice change for a 'Northern, rare & Modern' night!!! Boys, get yourselves along! The first hour we were there was pure Northern soul. Hardly recognised a thing, but it must have been good judging by the bodies on the dancefloor. Mark Simpson came on and kicked off with Chuck Ray followed by Stevie Wonder - Claire & Netty had some weird bet going on as to which Soul Down Souther would be the first to learn the words to "If You Really Love Me"! I don't know who won, but the tune went down brilliantly and had the dancefloor heaving and clapping away like it was a proper party!!! Paul Sutton followed up with upfront soulful garage and soul, and Arthur Fenn rounded up the night with a great Modern Soul 'anthems' dance til you drop set, with a few Caister classics for good measure. Can't quite get used to hearing 'Joy & Pain' dropped into a Modern Set, but hey, it worked. All in all highly recommended and well worth the drive to the South Coast. When's the next one?

Weekesie at 23:36:14 Wednesday January 23 2002

Lee, no mate I didn't. Am I supposed to be happy that Tottenham won? Glad that Chelsea got a spanking but it stops there.

Niki at 22:45:17 Wednesday January 23 2002
Oh yeah forgot to add..... 6MS Dicky mad me very nervous by pointing out the local hooligans who arrived late on and stood by the bar. "If they give you any hassle Nik, just come and see me". And I DID wear my West Ham anorak :o)

Niki at 22:40:27 Wednesday January 23 2002
Review for Cultured Soul last Friday............... I really enjoyed last night... great tunes and great maaates... what more can you ask for? Well clean glasses and toilet paper would be nice! The venue 'The Escape' is a really nice room - spacious, nice dark red decor and massive dancefloor. The pole on the stage and leopard-print drapes gave away it's usual occupation, and I don't think they are very used to having ladies as punters, 'cos there wasn't a scrap of loo-paper in the toilets and the glasses were filthy. I had to give one drink back 'cos it smelt REALLY bad and made my hands smell too!!! Some other people at the bar said "Have you had one of those smelly drinks too?". Thankfully the staff listened and the glasses were clean and bog-paper appeared shortly after....... Also, despite there being quite a lot of people, it could have held another 300, so felt a bit empty. Mike Ritson & Stuart Russell span the tunes for the first couple of hours - nice Modern Soul as you would expect from the Manifesto men. Mark Simpson soon had everyone heading for the dancefloor with his funky new grooves and saw in his 40th Birthday behind the decks. The wonderful TJ the DJ was on fine form fresh from his Christmas break to New York and Florida..... and a good time was had by all. Overall recommended for the music if nothing else - the next one unfortunately clashes with Chocolate Soul, but I'll certainly be paying a return visit to Sarf Lahndahn soon.....

I tried Alta Vistas translantion and it gave me 'Aquela Corner' in Spanish and 'That Esquina' in Portugese - or it might have been the other way round......

DCML at 20:3:30 Wednesday January 23 2002
Bribo, I'm still alive - haven't been kidnapped yet just very very busy at work at the moment - have barely sat at my desk for more than 5 consecutives minutes in the past few weeks - too many people having too many accidents in South London at the moment - I wish they'd learn to watch where they're walking (or driving) - well I don't really otherwise I wouldn't be able to pay my mortgage. I'm working from home tomorrow so I'll contact you during the day xx

CD at 17:46:7 Wednesday January 23 2002
Cheers Matt, Is there any chance that you very good work colleague I give be a basic gist of what Cada Vez by Negrocan is about????

Matt at 17:41:14 Wednesday January 23 2002
CD- its not that easy. I used to have a Portuguese friend who patiently sat through untold Brazilian samba and bossa classics for me but found it hard to put into English what the songs were really saying. For the record, everyone's cheesy fave 'Mas Que Nada' is basically saying something like "Get out of my way, I wanna samba!". So y'see, sometimes its best not to know. As it goes, my workmate didn't know what 'Aquela Esquina' meant. Maybe its just the name of something/someone. Either that or its Portuguese.

Homer at 17:28:49 Wednesday January 23 2002

Niki at 17:11:48 Wednesday January 23 2002
What does "Aquela Esquina" mean?

Damn that is deep. What catergory would most men be in? Hope everyone is having a good day. My pooter is not playing fairly today.Scouser Paul doing your cd today and it will be in the mail by the end of the week.Anyone up for a nightstalker session later?

Why is it that at 16:26:24 Wednesday January 23 2002
1. The nice men are ugly. 2. The handsome men are not nice. 3. The handsome and nice men are gay. 4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual men are married. 5. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men, have no money. 6. The men who are not so handsome, but are nice men with money think we are only after their money. 7. The handsome men without money are after our money. 8. The handsome men, who are not so nice and somewhat heterosexual, don`t think we are beautiful enough. 9. The men who think we are beautiful, that are heterosexual, somewhat nice and have money, are cowards. 10.The men who are somewhat handsome, somewhat nice, and have some money and thank God are heterosexual, are shy and NEVER MAKE THE FIRST MOVE!!!! 11. The men who never make the first move, automatically lose interest in us when we take the initiative.

Matt at 16:16:45 Wednesday January 23 2002
CD - it means "Each time" or "Every time" ... according to my Spanish workmate.

Who's up for an early start for the Rocket on Saturday???? I was relying on Sooper Johnny T "the man with the swiff" but he's not going. I'm meeting Massey at Kings Cross at 2pm and we're looking to have it large!!!! Spoke to Paul & Kevin (Rocket Promoters) on Saturday and they said everyone 'in the know' should go to the Spoofers Bar opposite the Rocket on the Holloway Road before the Doo. We'll be able to get 'members' tickets there for a tenner which will give us express entry at the door.... who's playing?????

Niki with severely disrupted sleep patterns at 12:36:16 Wednesday January 23 2002
It's all go at Arana Towers..... I've already had a Net Meeting with Simon Garner in Japan this morning..... never done that thing before - and it's amazing. We should all get Net Meeting-ed up.

Two guys were picked up by the cops for smoking dope and appeared in court before the judge. The judge said, "You seem like nice young men, and I'd like to give you a second chance rather than jail time. I want you to go out this weekend and try to show others the evils of drug use and get them to give up drugs forever. I'll see you back in court Monday." Monday, the two guys were in court, and the judge said to the first one, "How did you do over the weekend?" "Well, your honor, I persuaded 17 people to give up drugs forever," he said. "Seventeen people? That's wonderful. What did you tell them?" the judge said. "I used a diagram, your honor. I drew two circles like this: __ / \ | | O \__/ and told them this (the big circle) is your brain before drugs and this small circle) is your brain after drugs." "That's admirable," said the judge. "And you, how did you do?" he asked the second guy. "Well, your honor, I persuaded one hundred fifty six people to give up drugs forever," he said. "That many people! How amazing! How did you manage to do that!" the judge asked. "Well, I used the same two circles. I pointed to the small circle and told them, 'this is your anus before prison,'" he said.

A hippie gets onto a bus and sits next to a nun in the front seat. The hippie looks over and asks the nun if she would have sex with him. The nun, surprised by the question, politely declines and gets off at the next stop. When the bus starts again, the bus driver says to the hippie, "If you want, I can tell you how you can get that nun to have sex with you." The hippie of course says that he'd love to know, so the bus driver tells him that every Tuesday evening at midnight the nun goes to the cemetery to pray to the lord. "If you went dressed in robes and some glowing powder," says the bus driver, "You could tell her you were God and command her to have sex with you." The hippie decides to try this out. That Tuesday, he goes to the cemetery and waits for the nun. Right on schedule, the nun shows up. While she's in the middle of praying, the hippie walks out from hiding, in robes and glowing with a mask of god. "I am God, I have heard your prayers and I will answer them but you must have sex with me first," he says. The nun agrees but asks for anal sex so she might keep her virginity. The hippie agrees to this and quickly sets about having sex with the nun. After the hippie finishes, he rips off his mask and shouts out, "Ha ha, I'm the hippie! " The nun replies by whipping off her mask and shouting, "Ha ha, I'm the bus driver!"

Matt at 13:48:27 Tuesday January 22 2002
Just thinking about Choc Soul this Friday. Will it be like the Casino when they had the Granada TV in for the 'This England' documentary in 1977? Will all the lights be on and will all the 'faces' boycott it for the night? Let's hope not. Still, it'd be good if they choose a similar artistic ploy and have slow motion close ups of Kaya doing the drunken falling over dance. Now that'd make some cracking television.

Andy in New Jersey at 19:13:59 Monday January 21 2002
Happy Birthday To Ya! Off work today in observance of the holiday for Martin Luther King Jr. Trust one and all had a suitabley soulful weekend. Despite the snow this weekend, I had a ball - caught the incredible Jimmy Smith at a little club in Garwood, NJ on Friday. Despite now being in his seventies, the man was cookin! Saturday morning was spent digging through dusty little second hand stores in the hunt for elusive vinyl - Came up trumps as I unearthed a couple of rare mint JB albums -"Hell" from 1974 and the soundtrack LP from the blaxploitation movie "Slaughters Big Rip Off". Saturday night was spent in NYC catching an all-too smooth Brian Mcknight. The man can carry a tune for sure but I fear he's moving further away from his soul roots with each CD but he's a big star now thats for sure. Tyrese was the support and I'm sorry but the Gangsta thing just don't work for him given his pretty boy looks and all! R Kelly made an appearance on stage also during the Tyrese set to rapturous applause. Catch up later in the week, have a good one y'all!

#Can't keep a boiled egg from burning, I'm busy 'busing all that I can do, don't ask how I been cause ain't nothing new. I'm still sleazy and I'm dirty, my house smells like the Cincinnatti Zoo, don't ask how I been cause ain't nothing new. Do you remember the yelling the screaming the selling me on the idea of going straight? You told me flat out and out that I made you nauseous. Then you just up and quit, went 'bout your biz and all i managed to say was "let's have another pull on your dinkerlaker beer"#

Tenerife Dave in Tenerife at 13:41:55 Sunday January 20 2002
Hi everyone, just quickly for those who don't know me, my name's Dave Johnson, I moved over here 3 years ago and work on the British Radio Station over here. I have a show called the Soul Underground named after the gig I ran in the West End. I believe some of my old Pals from the Midlands have now borrowed the name !! I have to now limit the amount of more obscure music I play now I have daytime slots, for the Tenerife audience. However, I have a CD with 13 tracks on it supplied by the fella I work with ( I play in a club at night ). It's all quality Soul, independent sounding from the 80's. I don't know what any of it is, and neither does he. I don't think ( to you lot ) it will be that obscure, I'm no authority. So if you're at a loose end in the middle hour of my show today I thought we could have a little interactive challenge. I'll play all tracks in that hour. I've spoken to Nicki, she says she'll put together a CD as a prize, Thanks Nicki. Apologies if it's a bit like old AM radio and sorry about the adverts ! Show 2-5 Competition 3-4 Web- www.oasis101fm.com Up for it ?

Niki at 13:35:28 Sunday January 20 2002
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEE MAAATE!!

(From the Chelsea Chat web page ...) went down to Budleigh Salterton to see a challenge match of Pelota Basque, left at 7.30 eta 9.30. What an astounding sport requiring an array of skills, but what a surprising result, the Basques were beaten at their own game by The Dorset Costermongers Association Select (who surprisingly included former Fulham forward Dale Tempest in their line up). For a while though a sour taste lingered as the Dorset Costermongers included a Juan Perreira (an extremely accomplished Pelota player). Irked, I questioned his selection only to be told that he has just purchased a store in Bridport specialising in Rolling Pins and Nonagonal air fresheners for cars. With that cleared up we sat back and enjoyed the great game, I was impressed by the hugely knowledgeable crowd (which included Little Jimmy Krankie and Wanderly Luxemburgo, who has been a huge Pelota fan for years and even has his own Pelota fanzine in his native Brazil called 'Killing me won't bring back your apples', Jimmy Krankie however is not aa ardent Pelota fan, she was simply relaxing before her appearance in this evenings performance of 'The Accidental Death of an Anarchist' at the Exmouth Tea Rooms). Interestingly enough though I did drive through Bridport on my way home and yes you've guessed it.... I am now the proud owner of a bakelite rolling pin and a nonagonal air freshener emitting the scent of 'Autumnal Equinox'. So back to the Theatre of Broken Hearts tomorrow. I'm looking forward to the match tomorrow and as long as the game is played in the right spirit then the result is irrelevant - it'll be simply fantastic to see the travelling academy of football stop off at the Bridge. A quick warning to anyone living in the Sutton/Cheam area... don't go out tonight in search of beer as they'll be hardly any left as it's the Sutton/Cheam Archery Club Beano tonight, big drinkers, high jinx...someone put the Army on standby. Old Speckled Hen?? It's a drink for men. Indeedy Doody

Hello, D'Arce. I thought you were in Huddersfield. I'll whizz over tomorrow & have a listen to that tune. Tenerife Dave, that tune is called 'I Love You More And More Every Time' (artist unknown - Regina Bell, maybe) My missus bought it because of the sample . Part 2 contains a sample of a tune by The Persuaders, apparently. Anyone else staying in?

Claire & Mark in damp and dreary Aldershot at 9:9:3 Saturday January 19 2002
Morning Swat :-) Great to meet you last night (and Alan) and to see Niki, Carl, Roz, Theresa etc. We thoroughly enjoyed the "Morden Gig" where Mark saw in his 40th Birthday behind the decks. Great venue, playing excellent Soul Music of all types, and worth a visit, now that Mike and Stuart have confirmed monthly dates for the next year. (Next one is February 22nd with Gavin Page and Mark Simpson + guests) Great to see and hear TJ as always, back from his hols tanned, rested and still as mean as ever behind the decks. Quick lurk then we're off to Bournemouth, where we'll see some of you later. Swat can you mail us off list and Niki where are my lyrics....tonight depends on it (Chuck Ray is in the bag!) Laters

SWAT at 8:52:34 Saturday January 19 2002
Mornin' all. Enjoyed last night alot & tis was good to make MArk & Claire (have a good 'un) A great range of choonz everyyjing from Bessie Banks to the current corkers from Viola & Beverly Brown. BUt please give Jon Cutler a rest. Claire I think you could be right r/e "going back to our roots".

scouserpaul at 2:17:8 Saturday January 19 2002
Ta, but I'll stike with me vodka. BTW, swiffing is a made-up verb which some of us use to describe the act of dancing to Northern & certain Modern Soul tunes, taken from the TV advertised throw-away dusting cloths called Swiffers, in so far as if you had said items fixed to your shoes you could have a have a dance &, at the same time, buff the floor up a good 'un. Uses of the term include: Swiff me up. Let's have a good swiff. That floor/tune was swiffable, Swiffety-swiff & swiffed up.

Roz in Leatherhead heading for Carshalton and Morden! at 17:43:27 Friday January 18 2002
South London Schwingers on mass tonight in Morden, Theresa, Justin (Northern geezer who saw sense), Dru, Roz, Rob, Sam, Lucy, Chelle, etc. etc. etc. and technically Morden is in Surrey not Sarf London!

Lee at 17:32:52 Friday January 18 2002
Niki - Na, I'm getting on the train to Kings X & then tube to Morden. 45 mins on the Noorf-urn Line, nice. I think I'll bring my CD player with me!!!!

SWAT at 17:12:6 Friday January 18 2002
Niki I assume you rea going via the south circular. Streatham hmm famouus only for the bus garage, The ice rink (home of the ast Special branch doo),2 dodgy restruants with Elvis impersonators next to each other, the Bali High/Palm Beach (rip) & Zigis.

Niki at 17:6:56 Friday January 18 2002
Have to pass through St. Reatham on the way tonite.

Niki at 17:5:20 Friday January 18 2002
Lee, you driving down from St. Evenage?

Niki at 17:4:50 Friday January 18 2002
I do occasionally venture into uncharted territory on 'the other side' but start to get jumpy if I go more than three miles from the Rotherhithe Tunnel.... Anyway, I give up. Who are West London's finest then? I believe that to be a contradiction in terms.

Lee at 17:1:57 Friday January 18 2002
Niki - Me, me, me, me!!!!!!!

SWAT at 16:44:4 Friday January 18 2002
hmm Sarf london I s'pose if we were being perdantic I'd say Greenwich/Forest Hill ect was really SE London & the Sutton Morden axis is SW london (as a certain pirate radio station used to advertise it)

Niki at 16:38:11 Friday January 18 2002
So who else is out to play tonight? Steve, Alan, Dicky, Roz, Stefan De Bennett.... anyone else?

Niki at 16:35:27 Friday January 18 2002
So where am I going then?

SWAT at 16:32:35 Friday January 18 2002
there's sarf London & then there's the real Sarf London

Niki at 16:28:26 Friday January 18 2002
No parlez sarf lahnden lingo. Already been told to "mention Lavender Hill / St Johns Hill / York Road / The Latchmere & make as many references to Battersea as you can in every sentence". What does that mean?

SWAT at 16:24:2 Friday January 18 2002
Chelsea pah! I'm one of West Londons finest (ahem) Does this mean Alan & Dickie will have to get protection from the Rose Hill girlies?

Niki at 16:21:31 Friday January 18 2002
I'll just say the ICF send down their hardest bird to reccy for tomorrow..... then stand behind Alan & Dicky

Niki at 16:19:13 Friday January 18 2002
I shall make a point of wearing my West Ham anorak tonight. Yes I really do have one, a nifty navy blue nylon number. Actually I've got two, but the other one is old pony (!) and only gets used for Dog walking.

Niki at 16:16:52 Friday January 18 2002
You Chelsea boys are soooo drole

Niki laugh in g my head off at 16:16:28 Friday January 18 2002

Lee at 15:57:54 Friday January 18 2002

Roz in Leatherhead at 15:29:48 Friday January 18 2002
Anyone coming to the Morden do by tube? Turn right out of the station and cross the road at the pedestrian lights onto the island (big ugly tower block in front of you Merton Civic Offices) keep the building to your right and Escape is just past the Midland bank with handy cash point for those who've left home without money (do I mean you Mr. Bennett) I believe I do. See you there!

Gilo at 15:16:10 Friday January 18 2002
Anybody not going out tonight ??

Lurking 6MS at 14:51:56 Friday January 18 2002
Re: Parking in Morden. There is quite a decent size car park situated BEHIND the moody KFC (Dallas Fried Chicken or somethinglike that) opposite The Crown. I wouldnt recommend it however as numerous vehicles have been broken into from there. Either park outside/near the Crown on the main road (if red routes permit now) or use the car park in Safeways back on the silly one way system. Hope this helps Dicky

Conrad at 14:46:18 Friday January 18 2002
If youre not out tonight or fancy a few choice grooves on your return....dont forget Solar Radio channel 879 Sky Digital or www.solarradio.com.....Mick Farrer 10pm - 1am ; Conrad Bool 1am - 3am....5 hours of top drawer soulful garage,jazz grooves and of course sweet and beautiful soul music.....have a soulful,funky weekend

Andy in New York / New Jersey at 14:25:55 Friday January 18 2002
Happy friday people! Wishing one and all a funky weekend - looking forward to a musical feww days here too, out to see the great Jimmy Smith at a club in NJ tonight and taking the wife to see Brian Mcknight & Tyrese tomorrow in NYC - not exactly big fans of the latter but still better than a night in front of the tubes!!! Plans for a UK assault are in the making - will be back on March 16 to spin a few tunes at "Big Stu's Soul Kitchen" - really looking forward to that one as will have a special guest for the occasion. Will also be back for Caister in May - Nikki/Kaya, pls get in touch. Love And Peace!!!!!

Niki at 14:23:0 Friday January 18 2002
Weirdy, it must have been hired by Su, cos it's her birthday party and she tells me it's free...... DCML, I think the back room at the Orsett is being refurbished. I havn't had any dates from Chi as to when QoS is starting up again, but I hear it's going to be monthly. Odds & Ends, I look forward to it!!

Weirdy in waiting for serious lemonade partners at 14:9:48 Friday January 18 2002
Nikki, they charge at the door Fri/Sat nights (I've got a few free passes)for Play so has the upstairs or down been hired and arrangements made. I'm sure the well known management will look after us.

Odds & Ends at 13:57:12 Friday January 18 2002
Lou - You can hear me next Sunday night; Soul @ the Sebright, you know it makes sence!!!!

DCML at 13:54:25 Friday January 18 2002
that is of course TJ... not KH xx

DCML at 13:53:21 Friday January 18 2002
Niki, as you know I'm easily confused and don't take any notice of anything I'm told but what's happened about QoS has it moved to OC every other Friday or has it ceased to exist as a fortnightly event? Have a great time tonight please give my best new year wishes to the great one when you see him.

Alan at 13:52:4 Friday January 18 2002
Steve - ain't got a clue where the car park is, although I do recall a trek there with Dicky a while back, and we parked in a covered place in the middle of Morden. I'm sure it's signposted.

johnny T, eatin', typin' and slobberin' at 13:49:53 Friday January 18 2002
Got yer E-mail CD!! Cheers me darlin', I'll see ya there!!

SWAT at 13:49:28 Friday January 18 2002
Alan r/e parking tonight where is this massive car park. My dads convinced it doesn't exist as he works in Morden on a regular basis.

Niki at 13:38:55 Friday January 18 2002
Alan, OK. I should be alright for directions.... have AtoZ too!

Alan C at 13:36:6 Friday January 18 2002
Niki - I can aim to be there for sometime after 8.30pm Are you OK for directions ? I can forward you my mob number, just in case.

Niki at 13:33:27 Friday January 18 2002
Alan, I'll be there between 8.30 and 9.... you can buy me a light ale if you like :o)

Alan C at 13:30:27 Friday January 18 2002
Morden - Is anyone planning to get there before 9pm ? Dicky is unable to make it until about 10pm, by which time I'll probably be contemplating a good night's kip. The last time I left to go out anywhere *that* late in the evening was when lived in Holland, and everything stayed open 'til 5am.

Mick Farrer in Chillin' at 20:0:22 Thursday January 17 2002
Following Conrad's earlier comments,i would also like to say a belated thanks for everyone that listened last Friday night.Your support and kind comments make it all worthwile.Incidentally i mean't to thank everyone last Saturday but been overseas with work since last weekend.If you get the opportunity to listen in tomorrow evening it will be wonderful to have you on board( www.solarradio.com or channel 879 Sky Digital).Regular features include "3 from the 80's" .This week the year will be 1982 although i have not decided what they will be,so your suggestions will seriously be considered,"The A - Z Of Soul" ,this week we're on the letter S and the artist is O.C.Smith(3 great tunes from him) and my favourite part of the week at 12.30 where we play loads of great stuff from the 70's.Also loads of brilliant things in between including at 11pm, 45 minutes of the best in current US Soulful Garage.Thanks again and keep it Soulful,Mick.PS ,Good music is good music and always will be.

The Last of the Wicked Romancers at 19:58:35 Thursday January 17 2002
Good advice - catch ya later ....

Jester very well said.Man I didn't now you could string together that many sensible thoughts. Wait it is before midnight.

maB at 19:38:35 Thursday January 17 2002
Oi Jester - Hows the decorating? No dont....

The Jester at 19:30:14 Thursday January 17 2002
Please - no more pidgeon-holing. A 'choon's ' a 'choon'. If it's good (from any sub-genre of Soul Music), it should get played. The Americans have the right attitude! On the whole, it's an age thing - you 'feel' what you grew up with and were fed @ the local dance halls , so that will be dear to your heart but it's important to open up our minds and not miss out on the rich diversity. I personaly think that a cross-section should be played, especially if there is only one room - that's why the Soul24-7 party was such a success. I find it hard to take a night of 'Soulful Garage'; a few tunes, back to back, fine - who says that this is the way forward? It's very easy to fall into the 'comfort' trap and just because it's played up the road you'll do the same!!! We are all individuals and have our own ideas about 'the good groove'; so be ourselves and go with what feels right from inside. that's why Chocy Soul, Soul @ The Sebright, Spirit work well - something for everyone. One little gripe I feel that there is not enough 2step/sweet soul played at gigs, unless you frequent the bar area @ Spirit to name one - well done for that guys! And 'vive la difference'!

Alan C at 19:16:4 Thursday January 17 2002
So, in conclusion, I think that the point which several of us are trying to put across is that if it has a soulful feel to it, then it's good. It's a shame if anyone these days bothers to get confused about the wanky politics which ravaged the soul scene in the mid-70's up north, specifically the Wigan/Mecca split. The depressing thing is that for some of our cousins from north of Ilford, it would *still* be a hanging offence to admit to liking Boby Franklin - 'Lady's Choice' (unbelievably banned from the turntables at The Casino !)

Dave D at 16:56:49 Thursday January 17 2002
Niki, you could try that at the Dome in Tufnell Park and I can guarantee someone will smash it! It'd be funny though.

Distinction at 16:55:54 Thursday January 17 2002
Where do you draw me?

Niki at 16:53:46 Thursday January 17 2002
Come to think of it we've ALL been listening to the same tunes for the last 30 years...... It's still all SOUL. No wonder the Government have so much trouble trying to convince us a single currency is a good idea.

Niki at 16:40:2 Thursday January 17 2002
I wonder if these people have been listening to the same tunes for the last 30years? I think we should find a pure 60s Northern Soul doo, gatecrash it, put Roy Ayres on and lead a conga dance around their spring dancefloor....... Do you think someone would smash the record?

andy in califonia at 16:33:43 Thursday January 17 2002
cd checked the mail nothing there

Niki at 16:31:10 Thursday January 17 2002
Dave, so if I've got this right then, there are very few Northern doos which only play pure 60s Northern Soul. In that case I don't know what anyone's problem is..... I know for sure I've heard Bobby Reed, Jessie James and even Luther in Northern Rooms but I thought they were 'diluted' somehow because there was also a Modern Room in the vicinity... I dunno I'm still confused. As Matt says in his 'Our Future Heritage' article (in the new Articles section).... "I mean its f***ing soul music, innit."

Dave D at 16:15:1 Thursday January 17 2002
Now you're asking complicated questions. Although NS started off as a 60s only scene, 70s records gradually got played too - at some venues more than others. It's still a predominantly 60s scene - in fact some venues will play 60s only others may include the occasional 80s or 90s record like Drizabone. I've been to some northern rooms and heard records I would normally expect to hear in modern rooms (like Innersection) and northern records in modern rooms (Bettye Swann, Chuck Cockerham). In short, there are no strict rules - but NS will always be mainly a 60s thing with some early 70s. Modern early will be 70s onwards but some records will get played in both and there will be exceptions to this. Is that clear? :-)))

Mornin' maates

Niki at 15:28:6 Thursday January 17 2002
Dave D & Alan, surely if you play 7ts at a Northern Doo it then becomes a Northern & Modern Doo??? I'm confused. Is Valatone a staight Northern Doo? Cos I heard allsorts when I went.... What is a pure Northern Soul doo? One which only plays 6ts? Do any exist? And if so how do we avoid them? ;o)

Matt at 14:34:52 Thursday January 17 2002
Anyone catch that Casino documenatry on Channel 4 last night? A glorious 15 minutes scheduled at 1.20 am or something. I couldn't be bothered to stay up for it but I got an idea that it featured the following (a) footage from that Granada documentary with flared up chaps dancing to Judy Street (b) Pete Waterman failing to explain why if he was such a kosher soulboy back in the day, he dedicated the rest of his life to producing the most soulless pop cack committed to vinyl (c) Keb Darge ranting on cue and gloriously antagonising anyone quick to take offence and (d) Stuart Maconie/Gail Porter/Jamie TheakstonKate Thornton who are, by contract, obliged to appear as TV talking experts on any subject under the sun.

Ahsan in Kensington at 13:58:9 Thursday January 17 2002
COME ON GIRLS!!! WHERE ARE YOU? As part of a C4 3 part series on soul music, we are still trying to speak to as many Goldmine and Caister girls as possible. It seems though that you girls are a bit shy. Not many of you have come forward and to get the show right, you'll need to! If you'd like to chat about the good old days (or know of any all girl tribes like The Klingons) please give me a call on 07773373534. Otherwise it'll look like only men liked soul and jazz funk...

Dave D in slogging away at 13:1:23 Thursday January 17 2002
Al, I'll send you an email next week mate when my plans are clearer. A pre-allnighter pint sounds good but not a ruby. I've done that before and it was a big mistake. I agree with you about music policy in northern rooms - much more 70s please. Mind you, I don't a bit of Patience Valentine or Lonnie Lester but only a little bit of r&b at a time.

Alan C at 12:42:49 Thursday January 17 2002
Dave, if you fancy doing The Rocket, we could meet up and make a night of it (pub or ruby beforehand ?) If anyone else fancies some of that, then shout. Like I said the other week, an ideal Northern gig would be on which supplants all this R&B dross with decent 70's/modern (Blue Magic, Voice of East Harlem, Gloria Scott, Creative Source). Play that alongside the likes of The Seven Souls, and Rhonda Davis, and we'd be well away !

Dave D at 12:34:27 Thursday January 17 2002
Al, just seen your note. I'll either be going to the Dome or the Rocket next week but am not sure which at the moment. I may make Soul In The City on 5 Feb and These Old Shoes the following week.... Hang on - that's potentially three northern only dos in 3 weeks, I'll be indanger of becoming some kind of throwback :-). anyone fancy putting on a midweek modern soul do in London? That'd be good.

Dave D at 12:30:19 Thursday January 17 2002
Just for the record, I'm not boycotting The Rocket and hope to make it next week. It's about time London had its own modern allnighter. I was just passing on why some people are boycotting it. I'm just a humble punter who'll go anywhere providing the musics good and beer's available.

Alan C at 12:28:57 Thursday January 17 2002
Dave D - what are your forthcoming club plans ? Are you doing either (or both) The Dome and The Rocket on 25/26th ? I've got Chelsea v West Ham on the Saturday afternoon, so am tempted to save myself for The Rocket. If Niki (or anyone else) fancies a taste of a *real* Northern gig, then The Dome is highly recommended, although These Old Shoes (near Tower Bridge - next one Feb 14th) is a very pleasant, very friendly midweek option.

Chris Jay in The Directors Chair at 12:26:13 Thursday January 17 2002

Hi Niki....quick break from the footie (we love you Chelsea we do...we love you..etc.) So will see some of you guys at the Rocket then, after Friday in Morden and Saturday in Bournemouth of course :-)

Well I've just had an e-mail from Massey from Darlington, and he's coming to the Rocket. I can only presume that the soul grapevine has sent news of our little conversation today jangling up and down the country! I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Levine himself is lurking....

Just spent 7 hours travelling from Surrey to Worksop and back in a car forced to listen to Vivaldi, escaped before they signed me up for the up and coming Bach Weekender! Can't wait for Friday see you all in Morden! Here's some typical south london humour to get you prepared; A bra and a set of jump leads walk into a pub. The set of jump leads takes a seat at a table while the bra goes up to the bar. The bra says to the barman, "Morning mate, 3 pints of lager please" "Sorry mate", the barman says "but I can't serve you." "Why not?" the bra says. "Because you're off your tits, and your friends look like they're about to start something."

Steve, you're right. The February Lacy Lady will be the last ever at Epping Forest Country Club as Epping Council have refused to renew the licence. It is yet to be officially confirmed but all the signs point to the March Lacy being at Secrets in Romford.

Niki at 17:21:25 Wednesday January 16 2002
My two penn'oth on the Northern thing...... I have only once been told that a particular DJ from up North "hates Southerners". I confronted said peep at Soul Essence where he denied everything! I've been to Fleetwood/Stoke/Winsford etc. and the lovely people I've met seem to get into all sorts of Soul music - but that is the 'Modern Room' crowd rather than the Northern fans. I've got to say that I've not really gone to any pure, straight Northern doos, though personally I love it when Johnny T drags me into the Main Room at Togetherness to listen to Disco!!!!! The worst thing I can say (as a sweeping generalisation) is that some of our friends from the North can be a bit humourless when it comes to the music and the party - but then look at the Durham boys for total contradiction of that. I do realise there are a lot of purists on the Northern Soul scene (they were probably seething in their anoraks during that Mecca-disco session)... and good luck to them. Some of us don't particularly like the garage stuff, or the Weekender anthems even. Some people only listen to classical music - so what? To each his own and all that. Personally I think that they are doing themselves a disservice by missing out on so much. It seems to me that us Suvvennas are generally more knowledgeable about Soul music as a whole - because we know about soul, jazz, funk, jazz-funk, disco, modern, northern and everything in between. We also have more fun doing it!!! I haven't got anything to say about Ian Levine except he brought us Soul in the early 8ts when there was none. Respect for that. As for DJ politics - can't be doing with it. What's the point in making personal comments about people and boycotting their gigs? Go to a gig because you like the music or stay at home and get a life.

Steve at 17:12:11 Wednesday January 16 2002
Hi Bribo! I heard there's one more doo at the EFCC, and then it's off to Romford. As for the venue, I personally think it's a good move (two floors, possibility of cheaper drinks, more birds in stilettos). As for the location, well, I spose that depends where you're based. Mind you, the bogs aint as posh as the Epping.

Steve at 17:6:47 Wednesday January 16 2002

Niki, I'm told that The Crown is in the base of a very large office block (the only one) in Morden, near to the tube station. It's not a massive town, so not easy to get lost. I assume you're taking the A24 route via Clapham > Balham >Tooting > Colliers Wood > Merton > turn left onto Morden Rd, and Morden itself is further down on the right. There's only really one route into Morden, so it's pretty easy.

Le Shadow in lounging in william hills chadwell heath at 15:39:30 Wednesday January 16 2002
There will always be a divide in this wonderful universe of ours ! wether it be north / south, soul /jazz house , garage, punk, rockabilly , steps or hearsay !! Ian levine is one of a hand ful of people who truelly revolusionised soul/black call it what you will music in the world !!He influences every scene within this genre in the last 25 years. So he had a dodgy spell and made and played some crap records ...Havent we all played then anyway do we all really belive that we have always had fantastic taste all our lives I dont think so ! Look through your record shelves and make me wrong.. For every carstairs record theres a shalamar as well . But hey weve all played it or at least grooved to it , rare records doesnt always equate to quality does it ? The northern scene has always been very them vs the world hey thats good they love their thang and they are entiltled to be like that the same way as the 70s/80sa soulboys thought the "family/Mafia"scene was the be all and end all of everything!! We all like what we like we are all differant thats what makes us what we are . All who collect records as a rule want the origanal,you can get pretty much anything in diff formats but there aint nothing like the real thing if you will pardon the pun !! That doesnt make us snobs or elitist its just our thing. Keep the faith , share the faith and live the faith. Its all so varied it will never be boring !

Dave D at 15:4:1 Wednesday January 16 2002
Northern Soul has always been a bit cuthroat when it come to discovering new sounds, promoting events and collecting records. But, as a punter just going to allnighters around the country - you couldn't meet a friendlier crowd.

Niki at 14:41:20 Wednesday January 16 2002
Great quote from Lamar Thomas on the 247 Forum "Don't Keep the Faith; Pass It On". Some Northern Soul fans could learn a lot!

By the way the worst thing Ian Levines been involved with musically was the Save Dr. Who single & who can remember his Hi-nrg column in the late lamented Street magazine?

SWAT at 13:49:20 Wednesday January 16 2002
IMHO anyone who is REALLY involved or loves music usual has an opinion. People like Ian, Hilly, Richard Searling ect have all said or done things that are deemed cotroversional @ sometimes for whatever reason.

Alan Champ in Sutton at 13:35:39 Wednesday January 16 2002
Niki - didn't know you were a John Gaunt fan ! Isn't he good ? I also try to catch Robert Elms in the mornings, and Hawkesby & Jacobs later on TalkSport. My 'take' regarding Levine has alwas been slightly confused. I'm assured by many people that he's a totally self-opinionated git, with no concept of how not to annoy people. At the same time, he's responsible for not only digging up and promoting some truly AWESOME pieces of soul, but was probably responsible for the development of Northern Soul as we know it, in the first place. Regarding Morden - if it's on this Friday, then I'm definitely in. Chelsea v West Ham is not until Sunday, and that also leaves the way clear for The Rocket (depending on whether we beat Norwich tonight, in order to face West Ham on Saturday or Sunday 25th or 26th). If anyone fancies a meet pre-Morden (Steve ?) then give me a shout at my e-addy. I'm only about two miles down the road from Morden, so a bit easier than the usual trans-polar treks to Tufnell Park, etc.

SWAT at 13:30:11 Wednesday January 16 2002

Levine is levine same as Hilly always Hilly. At the end of the day you pays your money you takes your choice. Boycotts are new think of the Holloway backlash.

Dave D at 13:8:42 Wednesday January 16 2002
Re I. Levine. Niki, people aren't boycotting The Rocket because of his change in musical direction in the 70s - in fact, a lot of northern fans agree that many great tunes came out of this period. It's not a north vs south thing either - it's an anti Levine thing because of the way he's behaved recently and his motives for putting on this venue - allegedly!

Niki at 13:8:36 Wednesday January 16 2002
Allo Alan! :o)))))))))

Alan mate how are things in deepest darkest Sutton. You going to Morden Friday? As to Levines' HI NRG moments well lets put it this way it made him alot of money & without 'em I doubt Motorcity would'e ever happened. They must be pretty profitable as Ian owns the copyright on the Record Shack stuff & say what you will they are still fillinf an awful lot of dancefloors across the world (though so are Status Quo, Gloria Eastedern ect..)

SWAT - Regarding your comments on Levine - well said ! Being from London, I've never had a problem fitting in with any genre. So long as it has a good soulful feel to it, then that's all that matters. There is an ageing 'purist' Northern crowd who have always been anti-London, and anti anything recorded after 1969. The irony is that if you go along to one of their gigs, you will hear loads of grinding early 1960's rhythm & blues, as that's now regarded as 'the roots of soul', so must (in theory) be even better than the mid-60's stompers which have fuelled them along for the past 30 years. There are plenty of DJ's (mainly in London) who share our musical 'mindsets' - Norman Jay and Peter Young are the main two who spring to mind, and they would happily jump between Maynard Ferguson, The Delfonics, Herbert Hunter, Nancy Wilson, Denise LaSalle, and Jill Scott. ps. If there's one thing that Levine SHOULD be shot for, it's that dreadful HiNRG crap that he made a mint out of during the 1980's.

Mornin' all. R/e the Ian Levene thing whatever one thinks its true that the Guy has always lived & been infulenced by black music (to varying deegrees). Most of those Northerners who diss him are usual those who thought that some dodgy toy commerical played in a former billard hall in Wigan had more "value" than the likes of Connie Clarke/Cairstairs/ Bessie Banks ect. Its true the mecca did lurch towards NY disco & Funk in its latter days but Ian has also said that he regrets this & that on reflection it was a mistake. But hey no ones perfect> Whatever next Tongy admits that the last 10 years were a mistake & goes back to playing records made by people with soul & not some dodgy german geezers who can programme a keyboard and are this weeks thing.

Jester, count me in for the next one. Tuesday is a bit of a dull night since they stopped 'Moonlighting' with Bruce Willis and Cybil Sheppard (the Jazz singer - lol) in 1984...I fookin love posh doo's me! :O))

The Jester in Noble Home. at 2:32:22 Wednesday January 16 2002
Hello one 'n all - just back from Noble Soul @ Noble Rot, Mayfair and had a lovely time of it - The house band were as tight as ever and we had two great vocalists jamming the night away (Nicki & Bora from the States) I noticed a few industry types from EMI lurkin' so I told them it was a Soul24-7.com sponsored event - notebooks at the ready??? Best reaction to chooon(s) played by myself was Cuba Gooding's 'Disco Royale' followed by Eugene Record's 'Fan The Foookin' Flame' It would be nice to see a few 'Soulboys' down there in the future - They'll be held one or twice a month in the future on a Tuesday 9 'til late with FREE admission!!!!! Weeksie - thanks for the package; Faith, Hope & Charity got a good airing last night, too.
