You will see no strangers here, only friends you have not yet met. See you on Thursday!

Thankyou to everyone for making our charity day such a success!

Hiya Sheila

Thank you once again for making us feel so welcome and restoring our faith in the "Country Scene".

You and your people are really what it's all about and I went to bed last night feeling as though I had been out for a great night with friends.

And I usually need to consume a substantial amount of alcohol to achieve that feeling but not a drop passed my lips.

The work that you must put in to get everything in place every week has got to be enormous but I hope you never loose your enthusiasm.

Kindest regards.

John (Gunsmoke Trio)

 


Many thanks to Sheila and all at Northern Renegades CMC Shobnall -, Burton On Trent for hospitality. Clubs like this make it all worth while. Look forward to seeing you all again in May 2008. Bob Oakley


To Sheila and all her friends at Northern Renegades: Thank you for a wonderful evening on Thurday! You have a brilliant club and a lot of friendly people I look forward to playing to you again next year! Woody The String Man

Hi Sheila

After talking to you on Thursday, obviously my thoughts and prayers have been, and still are with you.

Even though I haven't known you long, I do consider you to be a special friend and you haven't been out of my mind for a single second since we last met............

..................and for that I say thank you on behalf of myself and those who may not even realise the influence you have had on their lives.

Keep up the fight, I will be urging you on EVERY day.

Best wishes

Bob Oakley


 

Hi Shelia,
What can I say? A massive thankyou for letting us play last night at your really special Northern Renegades Country Music Club. I realise only too well the efforts to create and sustain such a Club and you have done it with a nice bunch of people. We had a great time playing.
Thanks

One again a big thankyou to Sheila and the gang.

Hi Sheila, on behalf of myself and Victor can I just say what a really grand night we had with you all last night. When a group has a crowd who are so friendly and hospitable it really makes one feel part of them, and believe me, some of the places we visit are not even half as friendly.You have got a lovely club in the Northern Renegades, a great ambience, fantastic people and you do a marvellous job helping to keep it together.

 

 

Once again, thank you, With our very best wishes, Michael & Victor (Gringo)


I have had a night at The Northern Renegades and what an enjoyable night it was. Such very nice friendly people to play to. In my view having been in Country Music for many many years The Northern Renegades takes me back to how the clubs use to be in the past. Please try to keep this lovely little club going, we all need clubs just like yours, there are not a lot of clubs like this one left now.

Thank you Sheila and to Cyril and to all your Customers.

Best Wishes To You All.

Just a line to say how much Anne and I enjoyed the night at your club,such nice and friendly people it reminds of the days of 50s 60s 70s when each club locally visited each other, so all clubs are full ,and not trying to out do one another.you have also a good team of dedicated helpers.

 

Any way Sheila hope to see you next year Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Anne & John Aston


I just wanted to take the opportunity to wish you and all your club members a very happy new year!! Also, to tell you how much I enjoyed playing at the club on the 16th December. The atmosphere's always so relaxed and friendly it came across to me that everyone's just out to enjoy themselves.

May your club continue to thrive in this new year! Lots of love and best wishes

I just wanted to write to say THANKS!!! for such a great night. You, Ruth and the boys made me feel welcome right from the start. By the end of the night, I felt like part of the family.

Please pass on my thanks as well to the club staff at Shobnall. Their friendliness and help with setup and particularly their patience at the end of the night (when I lost my keys) were very much appreciated.

I'd love to come back to Burton just as soon as you'll have me. Fantastic memories of a fantastic night!

Kind Regards, Bobby D. Sawyer
