Dave Thorley Posted December 1, 2007 Posted December 1, 2007 Well it's no longer going to be just a memory, see you all tonight
Guest Posted April 17, 2008 Posted April 17, 2008 N. HI all. This is Nik McAvoy. I was one of the three promotors for the Yate all-nighters . I've been looking at the posts with a lot of interest so I thought I'd put my two penith' in! Time has clouded a few things but hopefully this will clear up my time promoting Yate. Dj Line up was everyone except Paul Guntrip/Jacko. Sorry don't remember those names. The club was called 'The South of England soul club' (5000 members when it closed!). If you look at the picture of Hippo you can see the MDF Board/Banner I painted with the logo on it! The T-shirts were designed by me and printed by my Mum. There were also sweatshirts. Three colours White,Blue & Grey (I think!). Didn't realise that the management carried on with the gig after I left! They were always gready and untrustworthy so I'm not surprised. I've dug out a load of pics from the time just need to scan them in and post them so will hopefully get them up in the next few days. I have great memories of the gig as it set me on my way in the nightclub business wich I still do to this day. My Dj-ing spots there are some of the best memories I've ever had and always get me smileing. The crowd were amazing freindly and very knowledgable and the Dj's I booked were some of the best I've had the privaledge to work with. Great ,great memories. Keep on Stompin' N. Didn't Pete Widdison DJ at Yate? Andy Golding - one of the south's finest and sadly missed - RIP
Jerry Hipkiss Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Didn't Pete Widdison DJ at Yate? Pete was an important part of the Yate scene, but as far as I know didn't DJ there - unless it was a one-off on one of the very few nights I missed! Hippo.

Hippo. thanks for that Hippo - my memory is not as good as it was i do remember that i owe Pete £50 so if anyone has contact details for him i would love to square my debt
Dave Thorley Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Didn't Pete Widdison DJ at Yate? No, Pete's job at Yate was the organisation of 'The Card School', back stage, which ran from about 4am until closing time. Also he found many a top tune that were played at Yate. Pete did DJ at Stafford in the oldies room.
Guest Frank Elson Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I set off from Oldham, drove to Lincoln where Dave Godin cooked me an awful veggie meal, which I said was OK, of course. Then drove him and that guy he used to live with, who's name escapes me now, down to Yate. had a great night then drove back to Lincoln to drop them off then back to Oldham where I slept for a day. I remember Dave, who never drove, couldn't understand why I got so worried about petrol on the way home. Look the bloody mileage up :-)
Guest gordon russell Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 This great little allniter in the West Country, was the starting place for so many people. It ran for five fraught years under five different promoters, but was so much fun. Saw Rowland a few months ago and we spent several hour in fits, re-counting story after story from those great lost years. Martin Peerman dressed up as Jake The Pake, Steve Smith's amazing spins, that could result in several tables being taken out when they went wrong. The night it snowed in late may and it took us five hours to get just 20 miles home. Lost the car exhaust after only 3 miles, cuz I had 7 people in the car plus 3 dj boxes and the deep snow ripped it off. The slight disagreements with the locals in yate before some of the allniters. Great days!!!!!! Your addition welcome GREAT DAYS INDEED,......ERR SLIGHT DISAGREEMENTS,BIT OF AN UNDERSTATEMENT THERE.....HURLEY BATS,MILK CRATES THROUGH CAR WINDOWS....BIG SAM FROM BRUM LAYING EM OUT TO ORDER......COME ON YATE THOSE DAYS WERE GREAT!!!!! Anyone got any posters(Maybe even for sale) Dave

Look the bloody mileage up :-) As I said to you when we talked on Sunday Frank , that after you put your first few posts / replies on SS , you will stop being nerveous about it ....... You are no longer a SS virgin .......... The chap who resided with Dave in Lincoln , and latterly in Sheffield , when Dave moved there , was Alf Billingham ......... I last saw , and caught up with Alf , at Dave's funeral service , several years ago ........ Will ring you tonight Frank ....... Malc Burton
Guest Sean Haydon Posted April 30, 2008 Posted April 30, 2008 I remember one Saturday night, we decided not to go to Wigan. Let's go to Yate for a change and hear somethin different. Besides, snow was forcast and thinking cleverly not to travel North. Big mistake! A few of us from Wolves met up with some lads from Pleck, Bazza and Bobby Hanson (RIP, God bless him), had a few drinks and set off down the M5. Light snow at Worcester got thicker and thicker the further south we got. Just managed to find the junction just after Micheal Wood services, then we didn't have a clue. Throwing little Rob out to knock the snow off the road signs to navigate. Hours later, someone say's "That's the place". Poor Rob's Doc Martins were sodden at this stage, "I gotta change my boots" he said. We soon jumped out of our Escort van, after the worst smelling feet i've ever experienced. Regardless of his trench foot we piled in the venue and a great night! which lasted about 90 minutes before a power cut. Snow and bad weather had bought down power lines. Sounds like a nightmare, but the memories of this night stands out with everyone who went, the piss taking and laughing will stay with us forever. Our music makes our scene but our Friends make it Awesome. Sean

Hi Not sure if you know but Di is still on the scene, out & about as always & still as full of fun & cheekiness as she always was. Saw Polo a few years back & he hadn't changed one little bit......I would recognise his hair anywhere! As for Karon she is still in Malvern & I'm pretty sure she's living with Dave E. If not I'm sure someone would put me right. For me Yate was only second to the Torch but a very close second.

Leon (top mate), Karen James, Hippo, Sue and many more, a bit like old times. Great to see everyone and just 15mins from home Dave
Guest smith Posted March 12, 2011 Posted March 12, 2011 I have joined this site so I can add to this thread. I have been looking at all the you tube dance clips and wondering if Yate was on any of them... I was a regular there in 74 - 75. I lived nearby and used to walk to the venue each Saturday night firstly for the 'disco session and then of course than the disco would shut down and we would all go to the caf on the ground floor waiting for the all nighter to open up. Then we would dance to the very early hours about 9 am in the morning. then I would walk home. I have tried to see if I can remember any faces in the photos but none come to mind... Afraid I can't remember any names either.... I just used to dance. I wish I could do still do it these days I doubt if anyone remembers me as I was not much of one to chat to people I just liked to dance. I will try to keep up with any postings about the Yate venue. Thanks for jogging my memories. Jim
Guest Needsy Posted May 19, 2011 Posted May 19, 2011 ye i also remember games not dodgy though lol & Greetys rules were spot on ....for him
Jerry Hipkiss Posted May 20, 2011 Posted May 20, 2011 Good to see you post on here Mark - with Snooky and Mick B on here that's nearly the car full ...just so sad that Sue is no longer with us...
Dave Thorley Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 Busy nites there, see the wall that was built across the back of the dancefloor in red, 78 and other photo from earlier days....................
Lucky One Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 I had the good fortune to attend the Yate allnighter in the summer of 1979. One Saturday night I went into my local pub for a night on the beer walked into three lads who were going to Yate later on and asked if I wanted to tag along with them, went home got some money and had one of the best nights ever. We travelled in a very tired mark 2 Jaguar which took just over an hour to get to Yate from Wolverhampton, no speed cameras in those days else Andy RIP would have certainly lost his licence. Great night for many reasons that's why I can remember it so clearly 37 years later.
