At the future you can read the SLADE NEWS under the new website:

will be held on Saturday May 16th at the New Springvale Club in Bilston.
A 5 minute stroll from the Trumpet, the club is ideally placed and a great venue.
Proceedings will kick off at 12 noon at the Trumpet – which will stay open all afternoon for us. This will be an informal affair, with quite possibly a sing song or two!
We’re planning to start the main event at the club with an exhibition being open between 4pm – 6pm. This will be followed by the usual quiz, 70’s dress competition etc.
The live entertainment will commence at 8pm. Paul Cookson will be there with some new poems plus Let It Roll playing some classic rock plus some Slade trax not performed by FS before Flamin’ Slade hit the stage.
The bar will stay open til late and the venue will be open until 2am, so plenty of time to chill out and chat at the end of the day.
Tickets will be £10.
Ticket numbers are limited this year – the venue isn’t as vast as the Robin. To buy yours now, email sladefest @ live.com and we’ll give you the payment details (paypal. cash or cheque). A website will be live soon which will have all the details about the event & tickets (http://www.sladefest.co.uk).
Keep Hold of Xmas TOTP
NODDY HOLDER, the glam rock lord from SLADE,
is the latest star to join my bid to bring back
the Top Of The Pops Christmas Special.
I revealed on Tuesday how killjoys at the BBC have
axed the December 25 edition after 43 years.
Readers have bombarded my inbox calling for its return.
X Factor chief SIMON COWELL
called me earlier this week offering to broadcast it.
And Noddy, who penned 1973 Christmas chart-topper Merry Xmas Everybody,
said: “The BBC should be ashamed.
Long live turkey sandwiches and me!”

Celebrity Midlanders Part One -
Musicians
with Walsall rocker Noddy Holder and S
lade’s lead guitarist Dave Hill
Walsall rocker Noddy Holder found fame with 1970s rock group Slade, best known for their hits Merry Xmas Everybody and Cum On, Feel the Noize. The star frequently pops up on television and was famously the face of Nobby’s Nuts in their 2005 ad campaign. Although he now lives in Cheshire, Holder still maintains a quintessential Black Country accent and his voice can be heard in the lifts at the Walsall New Art Gallery.
