wow, small world! i used to work at Arkwright and trained at Markham.....

[MrPlumbs]

Yes, just seen the place, they have 'spammed up' the dancefloor

[pattayadingo]

Good air con in there too and plenty of fans to keep the cool air moving about.

But if it rains, expect a shower. Whoever did the roof must have not realised rain gets in where you leave gaps

Is the music live or is it DJ? 400 baht is a tad high if only to listen to a DJ.

[MrPlumbs]

It's DJs, quite difficult to get 1960s Soul artists to Pattaya to sing 'Live' most of 'em are dead.......

400Baht includes free beer and wine til 10.. and all proceeds to charity

[ANDY2463]

Yes a very small world, loved them days “never saw much drama at any soul venue I attended, I cannot remember if they used to have door men at many clubs (but must have).

Northern had a big following in Derbyshire at that time; you would see people at other venues throughout the country and pick up right where you left of last time.

It is great that Mr Plumes and his crew have got something like this of the ground; I will defiantly be popping in when I get home at the end of the month.

There seams to be a good response to the thread, so hope the events get well attended, I for one will gladly spend 400Bht (with a charity being involved also) just for the music to remind me that I was 19 at some time.

Se u soon

I had a few shandys and a boggie in Assembly rooms Derby, few times, then it moved to the Pennine hotel Derby.

[MrPlumbs]

Hope to see a few of you tonight then........

I heard there were about 150 people there.

How fast did the free beer run out?

Venue is OK, but car parking is a nightmare. Used to be able to put yor car in Nirun, but Nirun is one big car park now

And the roads full of stalls does not help. Small car park at the Shagwell itself too. But isn't it like that in most of Pattaya?

3 cars outside my place last night but not a problem as I use the m/c taxis to go pubbing.

Next time it would be better to bring a m/c or take a m/c taxi especially as this is expected to be a Bi-monthly event.
