Derek Pearson Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 Remember those all-dayers in that club on the top of that hill in Todmorden. All the top DJs of the day played there Searling etc. In those days we travelled virtually everywhere on public transport and walked the long climb up the hill. Me in dufflecoat in disguise, wearing a full length leather coat would always attract too much attention I always thought. As usual I was always going in the wrong direction. I still hang out with Kyle Magill on the left. Blimey the long lasting power of friendships - Big Mick from Bradford on the left, Kyle in the centre and me on the right. (Stylists note hair shaved above ear) . I was out with these two at Lowton on Friday. Think of all the records that have been through the hands of these DJs & collectors - Tony Coleby, Guy H, Tim Finch and Gary Rushbrooke. onwards, derek

Guest Jolly Posted June 1, 2006 Posted June 1, 2006 (edited) i can remember coming down to the alldayer. in a bus from edinburgh. bruce hanning was djing from scotland. richard and ginger were playing. remember a small venue, small dance floor, and 60 scots all the worse for ware having a fantastic time. think me managed to get our coach about 3/4 of the way up that hill and walked the rest, can remember great atmosphere all day, the game of football outside. (thinks we scotland won 10 - 0 and a terrible journey home. still have the occasional flash back of that alldayer at the top of a hill. and smile Edited June 1, 2006 by Jolly

Happy days Derek - thanks for the post. Tim - always wondered if that was you stood next to Searling on the decks and now we know it was. In the bar shot you're 2nd from the right wearing a cream top - whats going on here then - you changed clothes? The plot thickens.... derek and yes all the photos were taken on the same day - I checked.

Tim Finch Posted June 2, 2006 Posted June 2, 2006 Hello Derek. Same day - are you sure? I'd have said I was well past the 'taking a change of clothes' stage by then! Having said that we did sometimes used to stay over in Skipton the night before a Tod so I suppose it's possible I had a selection of outfits with me
