Thanks all who listened in to our New Years Eve this year. The marathon list of songs played as we weaved through the hours is below, missing only the ones that went unrecorded from the cut-offs at 12.40am and the one a bit later. Stop-tap ended up being at 6.30am, with the last song being Candi Staton’s Suspicious Minds at 6.40, played with one eye looking to the left and the other to the right.

If you’re between four walls in the coming months the club happens same time (9pm till 3am), same place (Des Was a Bowie Fan Radio) each Saturday night. A very happy new year from us, to all in the valley and beyond.
