Popular Post Mark Bicknell Posted November 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2022 So very sad, a true gentleman of the scene, had the privilege of sharing stages with Steve many times over the years, Leighton Buzzard, Keele, Hinckley, Wigan events, numerous Scooter Rallies in the early 80's, a professional DJ and a lovley bloke, not seen him for a few years but fabulous to see him back DJ'ing in recent years, the real Mr.M who will be sadly missed. 6 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

clive P Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Such sad news to hear. Steve was a good friend, a real gent, a good man to say nothing of being a terrific DJ. He introduced me to new sounds, Wigan Athletic, a love that has stayed with me, Pemps and other pubs and clubs in Wigan, and too many shared good times together to list here. Can still remember Newquay. Sincere condolences to his family, sons Mark and David, and his many friends in the Northern Soul Community. RIP pal - Walk with a winner.

Like Mark I remember Steve Post Wigan, remember him at so many venues in early 80s , very sad news, and that great allniter in the sky has gained a great dj to keep all those soulies already there on the dance floor.

Paul-s Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I am totally shocked and saddened by this news. I sometimes got lifts from nighters with Steve in the 80's.

Catsprint Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Very sad news, not only was Steve known to me as a DJ, 30 years ago he managed Wigan Juniors, the football team my son played for. RIP Steve. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
macca Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 Very sad to hear this, and at 65 no age at all. I’ll always remember his name from the full page ads that Wigan Casino ran in Blues & Soul long before I got to go up there. He was also a friendly guy that never hesitated to share his enthusiasm for those classic sounds with the younger crowd. He’ll also go down in NS history as the guy that played the VERY last tune at Wigan which if I’m not wrong was The Night, perfectly matching the mood… RIP Steve.
