Modchester Mod Ball

A combination of a new venue, an international Mod DJ and the sight of Mike dancing to the Kinks made this the most memorable start to a Modchester weekender EVER.

From Grant Green to Ocean Colour Scene
The Modchester Saturday afternoon session is always a relaxed affair and this year was no difference. A good turnout of scooters was matched with 50 years of Mod Sounds on the decks (the title of the afternoon was met with some glee). Special mention goes to Mike with his Ska, John Kelly with some nice Jazzy dancefloor sounds and Paul with a selection of Beat and Modern Mod tunes. And as always we had our now legendary last hour double-deck R&B spot from Banks and Hoss.
