Hi All,

Whether we like to admit it or not we have all been around for a few years, so with that in mind what event sticks in your mind as the one you enjoyed the most?

Here are a few possibilities

National soul Day, Knebworth 1980
Reading Soul Festivals up to 78
Purley alldayers
A particular night at the Goldmine/ Royalty /Lacy
Stage 3 etc
Brighton Beach Party
First Caister Apr 79
St Tropez

My two favourites were my first Purley Alldayer 1978.
or the 25 years Caister.

What about you guys?

Some great postings,I agree when you first go to your soul gig you either love it and you live your life like that or you don't. I would say the First Purley Alldayer got me really into it, and knew I would not miss another one.

Anyone going to Caister next week if so see you there.
