Goldsoul Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Well nothing new here, but if you live in the Wigan area and fancy being on TV, PM us and we'll put you in touch with the programme makers. A bit short notice I know, but they are filming Sunday night and all day Monday. The episode being shot, is about the town including the inevitable reference to Station Rd, hence the request for two couples to show out a couple of moves! Thanks, Kev@Goldsoul
Little-stevie Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Some old soulies who have a couple of moves left in them maybe....
Citizen P Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Alternatively, could I recommend somebody to Nut the presenter ?? T
Wrongcrowd Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Just what the scene needs, TV of people in their 50's demonstrating dance moves from their teen years for the world to see. Why can't you get some younger dancers to at least put some positive perspective in place ? 1

You aint gonna get no sense from banjo boy and his mates..... So you think this is a good thing then ? TV shows have never presented the scene in any other way than embarassing, with the exception maybe of This England. Banjo or his mate, not sure which I wnt to be.

Goldsoul Posted October 6, 2011 Author Posted October 6, 2011 Guys for crikes sake calm down! We posted up a genuine request from a programme maker!!" No wonder why so many are frightened off when they read such aggressive remarks. GROW UP!

Guest gordon russell Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 well said Kev. hope they find suitable dancers
Guest spudmurphy Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 ask them to get hold of some of the kids on that northern soul film trailer, they can plug the film and the town

The episode being shot, is about the town including the inevitable reference to Station Rd, hence the request for two couples to show out a couple of moves! Thanks, Kev@Goldsoul HI ALL When people talk about putting together a film or a play about the casino, how come they never consult with the record dealers of the day who where just as much a part of the Casino, on the GRANADA program the film crew spent a lot of time shooting the record sales in the bar area, but apart for less than 1 minute appears in the final program, this includes my record box, why do they not recognize the stalwarts of the scene? DAVE
KevH Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Banjo knows who he is mate.... I with you are one of his merry men... Somethings get lost in text i guess... Was just saving the mods a job.... It was only ever gonna go one way on here.... My question was genuine.Would have liked a response.On topic as well.
Dean Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 My question was genuine.Would have liked a response.On topic as well. . . . . . and a good question it was too banjo. Myself and my lover Steve Lydon have applied as a couple
Goldsoul Posted October 7, 2011 Author Posted October 7, 2011 Mike- You can close the thread. As usual, the same brawling drunks going through the revolving door in order to hijack the thread, continue to turn others off. Thanks to the folks who got in touch...yer contact details have been passed to the production company.
Pete S Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Mike- You can close the thread. As usual, the same brawling drunks going through the revolving door in order to hijack the thread, continue to turn others off. Have to agree with you Kev.
Mike Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Mike- You can close the thread. As usual, the same brawling drunks going through the revolving door in order to hijack the thread, continue to turn others off. Thanks to the folks who got in touch...yer contact details have been passed to the production company. it always happens this way be it wigan retro or cutting edge music videos requests or whatever end of day members get informed, those who are interested will follow it up those who just want to pass on their view will do just way things go imo
Pete S Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 I think one of the best of these type of things was the one on that Mark Radcliffe programme on Granada in the early 90's, they did a very good retro piece but then bought it slap bang up to date by interviewing RS and showing footage of a then current allnighter (Blackburn I think) so if producers weren't so backward looking they could probably get a decent feature done - having said that, if you've only got 3 minutes to discuss Northern Soul on tv, it's inevitable that it will concentrate on it's perceived peak period.

Thanks to the folks who got in touch...yer contact details have been passed to the production company. You mean me Kev.? Brawling drunk? I asked a question with relevance.Couples - as in boy/girl dancing in the USA to soul music.Very different from our dance scene in the UK.Just wondered if there was a shift in style. Sorry to have bothered you.
Citizen P Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Why two couples? Have they got to dance boy/girl? It's all about balance I suppose. One Couple to hold the othe one up after the spins T
Goldsoul Posted October 7, 2011 Author Posted October 7, 2011 Mike- Can you close the thread. Thanks.
Mike Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 just seen this will do the thread stater can close threads via the mod tools link under the post or if cant do that best bet is to report it as mods dont always catch/read all comments
