Guest Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 (edited) Great quality photos, makes it look like yesterday! A change from all the little scrapbook snaps. I had forgotten some of those people in the pictures, it's only when you see them you remember! Edited January 9, 2014 by Guest
Patto Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Some of these pics are on a flyer for the 2nd Ann nighter sept 1975
Barry Posted January 9, 2014 Author Posted January 9, 2014 I would say, definitely a weeknight do. Paul Weeknight do's were difficult....take yer bird on the 640 on a Thursday and sit on the balcony whilst The Nutty Boys did their stuff underneath..am I dating myself there?? ;)..I always oddly on the midweek do's used to sit above where I used to sit at all nighters...three pints and a fumble and I tried to get out and to the bus station home before I got the Wigan Lad....'You're near the gas Marrer' line. One thing I will say is that I'm pleased I did used to go to Wigan in real life....as it was a very different place when it weren't a Nighter...I saw, smelt and felt it in a very different way at that time...I saw it in real time. By the wY in case you're wondering I am still in the pub...I have had no tea...and this fifth pint is kicking in haha. Speak to you in the morning, before I become Barold Of Old ;) x 1
Wiggyflat Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 These pics have been available for years.I used one or two of them for flyers in 2002.
Steve L Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 They look like some swings to me? On the pictures, I'm not a fan of 70s northern soul attire at the best of time, but dear lord the kids in the earlier pictures cant be hard core northern soul followers can they?!? I'm afraid we all dressed like that in 75, I was only 14 though

Steve S 60 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Genuine question - what are those wooden (?) structures in the background? It must be obvious but I'm not getting it . . . . . . . . . These lads are the Casino Crusaders, taking a well earned break from manning the trebuchets, as they lay siege to the nearby hamlet of Warrington.
Guest MBarrett Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 These lads are the Casino Crusaders, taking a well earned break from manning the trebuchets, as they lay siege to the nearby hamlet of Warrington. OMG - of course. I knew they reminded me of something!
Steve S 60 Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 OMG - of course. I knew they reminded me of something! At the command "Unleash Hell", a load of Pye Disco Demand 7" singles rain down on the unsuspecting townsfolk.
