ANY SOULIES OUT THERE ?
We're hoping to move to NZ - My hubby is into northern soul music in a big way ! Does anyone know of any all nighters going on ?
Or will we have to start some ourselves ? Love Alice

Hello,
This reply won't help you at all but I had to comment...
My Dad is into Northern Soul is a big way also and he is actually a DJ and has just set up his own soul night! It never ceases to amaze me when I used to go to the nights how far people travel to go to the them, they will drive for hours!!! Where are you from in the UK? I lived in Chesterfield. My Dad would love to live in New Zealand but he would need to know about Northern Soul to, LOL.
I am sure if you go to a city (Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch...) you will find a soul night!

Where my Dad DJ's isn't going to sound very glamorous but they are cracking nights! The one he guest DJ's at is in a hall attached to the welfare in Pilsley. It's in Soul mags or websites I think and people come from Skegness, Lincs etc to it every month. Also the one he does is in a different welfare in a place called Calow. He has only just started that bless him but he says it is going well. I am sure one day he is hoping to do the bigger places! He has an amazing record collection and I keep telling him to look after them as they will be mine one day and they ae worth a bob or two! LOL
Enjoy Brid and get yourselves oner to NZ

My OH dancers like that - It's so sexy!
I just shuffle along when I'm a bit tipsy - But I draw the line at talc!
I hate it when they sprinkle it all over the floor - I just end up slipping !!

Re: ANY SOULIES OUT THERE ?
OMG! Thank you! I've followed that link from Bevs and I'm absolutely rapt! I'm listening to Jack Montgomery now - this is the soul where The Commitments came from!
This is my absolutely favourite music - and Alice, you're right - it's THE most sexy music around!
Has anyone heard the Jools Holland/Tom Jones soul album? You can get it on Limewire - My Babe - droooooooooooolllllllllll

Hi Bev !
i know I risk sounding stupid - But I can't get any sound on the videos you've posted - i'm not very good with a computer !
Do you know what I'm doing wrong or what do I press to get sound ?
I can't wait to show them to OH - It's 1 thing that puts him off moving - He'll miss his soul nites.
He's a joiner/carpenter so I'm trying to persuade him to lay a nice smooth wooden floor when we get to NZ - Bring over all his record collection - & bob's your uncle - soul nites at mine !!!
We've been looking at Nelson or Harkes Bay , coming over in October - hoping to decide which area to move to then !!
Love Alice xxxxxxx
