    I think we have to get a bit more organised here.... so you should use this thread to post up any club nights or gigs with soul, r'n'b or funk playing.

    One post per event and please don't keep posting it each week if it's a regular occurrence.

    Information should include location (including city/town), admission price, time, music played and any other information that's relevant to it.

    :)

    Hey all

    The Candidates (full details above!) are an 8 piece Funk/Soul band from Dublin. After a great launch night on december 23rd in a packed sugar club we're doing our first gig of 2010. Hope as many of the soul/funk heads from boards can make it down to THE BERNARD SHAW, Dublin 2, this THURSDAY January 21st for some hot and sweaty funk. Admission is free and there's drinks promo's all night.


    If you can't make Thursday, we're playing another pub in Portobollo called THE LOWER DECK on SATURDAY January 23rd. Admission is €5.

    Hope to see some of you there

    Peas!

    Look out for the BodyTonic night in the Twisted Pepper, they would normally have a good bit of RnB and Soul.
