How The Soul Nights Begun.

 Back in the early Autumn of 2007 the Stoke On Trent Outer Circle Scooter Club lads wanted to have some back ground music on at their weekly meetings at The Foxley pub in Milton, Stoke On Trent.

 Collo, aka Mary Fox’s Record Fairy, was set about the task of sorting it out, so after arranging with a local DJ to provide the equipment, we now had to find guys to play a few tunes, original it was Collo & Mano, who copped for the job but it was a bit too much for just two, so Collo & Mano invited Amo, followed by Mick Reynolds & Keith Beardmore to come down & play a few tunes. Then Fizza & Bob Banks joined in, shortly followed by a regular attendee Arthur Copplestone.

 The Foxley Soul Brother Six was born! Yes, I know we can’t count, cause there 8 of ‘em now!!!

 The lads swap it around between them, with 4 of them playing each week, together with a few guest dropping in every now again. Guests we’ve had are Mozza & Nige Brown from South Staffs & local lads Pete Lawton & Pete Schofield.

 The music policy is easy, you can play anything you want too. If you pay us a visit on a Tuesday night, you’ll hear everything from the classics sounds from the Wheel, the Torch, Wigan, Stafford etc right up to the top tunes from the current northern, crossover & modern venues.

 As a few of the lads go to Soul In The Sun both in Tenerife & Lanzarote, you’re likely to hear the latest tunes that are spun at these events too.

 Music starts around 8pm every Tuesday night & goes on till 11pm. The landlord of the Foxley very kindly puts food on, as we always attract regular visitors from outside the Potteries, namely Rugeley & Stafford in the south of our area and Crewe and South Cheshire to the north.

 Get yourself down to The Foxley on a Tuesday, you’ll be made most welcome.

The Foxley pub is located just off the main A53 Stoke to Leek road, at Foxley Lane, Milton, Stoke On Trent & the post code for your SATNAV is ST2 7EH.

 Cheers & KTF
