Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 Does anyone have or know anything about the Peterborough Northern soul badge from the Wirrana days, i only hear of it could be East Anglian soul club but never seen a patch for it only for Peterborough Fleet.

I don't know if this one's of any use to you. I reproduced it to exact spec from an old worn out badge ages ago.

Wirrina also held allnighters run by Ken Cox after St.Ives got closed down under the EASC banner. I think it also had nighters run by someone else later so a few promotors used the venue
Guest Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 I can remember seeing Jnr Walker at the Wirrina must have been around 78 I should think
Guest Brian J Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Fleet Patch. Thought you might like a cleaned up version
Simsy Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Thought you might like a cleaned up version what? how .. ???
Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 That's been a great help, Real Thing, Major Lance, Exciters also played at Wirrana as my dad saw them and tells me about it. but them patches would be great to own.
Guest martyn Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 Fleet Patch. I'm confused ............Second aniversary 1986?........The first Fleet Alnighter was in 1978
Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 It's also great the Fleet run them again have done since 90's

I reckon the first Wirrina nighter was in 74.... can't be sure, just a school kid then. Wasn't the 30 yr "reunion" (ok, they didnt stick to the script, but what the hell) in July 2004? Where's Mr Donnelly... he'll tell us for sure?
Dave Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 Or was this from The Fleet? Long time ago! Tis a long time ago, but I think that is from the Fleet. That's been a great help, Real Thing, Major Lance, Exciters also played at Wirrana as my dad saw them and tells me about it. but them patches would be great to own. The Exciters, in 75 or 76, were one of the best acts I've seen It's also great the Fleet run them again have done since 90's Nighters? No.

CHRIS M Yes , not the first time they clashed with the Motown revue @ Hinkley and Jr. walker, Eddie Holman and Major Lance @ the Wirrana ( Major Lance coudn`t make it to ill ).
Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 It's the same Fleet in Fletton they done them in 80's and stopped doing them and back again. You should go if you ever in Peterborough great venue and night, i like it see Nigel DJ a lot there he runs it a lot. Where is Paul Donnelly. I not seen him DJ for a bit. He was the big one for DJing back then and Brian Rae at Fleet.
