  3. After reading through this thread I agree with all the folk that say live artists at nighters are a no no But A weekender is a different kettle of fish Two great memories for me is phil perry at prestatyn and jimmy conwell at fleetwood and the thought of seeing ben e king at the wheel...blows me away

  7. I dont think i would go to a venue purely on what dj was appearing But If im in two minds about a going to a venue on a certain night and a top dj who i like lets say carl willingham is playing it will probably sway me to visit the venue where i may not of botherd if a dj whos music didnt float my boat was playing

Billy Stewart..secret love..chess A record my mate gave me over 20 years ago because i loved it so much i still knock around with the lad today and when i ask him if he has a copy he always tells me that he lost his years ago.

  24. i went to a soul alldayer with 5 other people at the mersey view in frodsham in 1986. We got there about 3 or 4 ish to find that about 10 other people had turned up and to add insult to injury,the alldayer finished around 6 oclock when the plug was pulled on the event due to lack of interest. Cant remember who organised the alldayer but i bet they were well pissed off.
  25. I think it was the snake, in the school dinner time disco it went down well with all the sex pistol tunes being played
