Yes it looks a tough one!
im sure they did hold more dance competitions in between later in . However my win was kind of the early ones.
in afraid I was convinced it was an anniversary one .
I know for sure though that it was a first place win!

Deffo Steve Caesar at the 1st anniversary I was there, from memory dancing to Terrible Tom "we were made for each other" A memorable night for many reasons, four of us travelled down, only two had tickets. We were offered a lift on Victoria Station in the back of a transit van, with some "tasty" characters in the back, ended up en-route at some flat around Salford way.Let's just say it was like a scene from "trainspotting"
managed to buy tickets outside the casino at face value, seem to remember off a guy from Sheffield called Pev? anyone know/remember him?
Remember walking up the steps going in, when the doors opened sweat, noise and atmosphere, smacked you in the face!! Reperata and the Delrons "panic" was blasting out of the speakers(massive record at that time) spine tingling doesn't begin to describe it.
Think it was the first night of M's we bumped into the driver of the van, who offered us a lift to the Rose Rooms Burnley all dayer the next day, think we realised we'd rode our luck out and plumped for the agonisingly slow train back to Manchester from Wigan Wallgate Aaah the memories!!

Just about recovered from a great weekend away at Piercebridge New Year Weekender.
Chalky brought the New Year in fine style, courtesy of Terry Callier "I don't wanna see my self"
I must admit there was a bit of trepidation on my part when Simon Harrison asked me to do a bit, as it's been a looong time since I've played a modern/crossover set, tried to stick to the plan mainly 70s/80s with a few of my faves from the 90s and even managed to slot a few 60s mid tempo numbers in, in no particular order over the friday night and NYE 10-11 both nights
Brothers Guiding Light "getting together"
Jerry Butler "one night affair"
Jean Carne "if you wanna go back"
O'Jays "my favourite person"
Marvin Gaye "come get to this"
Darrow Fletcher "Love is my secret weapon"
Solo "blowing my mind"
Randy Crawford "give me the night" radio edit
Collen + Webb "give me a call"
Ann Nesby "in the spirit"
Harold Melvin "praying"
Debbie Taylor "just don't pay"
Philip Ballou "we'll be together"
Detroit Spinners "I'll be around"
Diana Ross + The Supremes "stormy"
Sandra Wright "I come running back"
Bill Harris "am I hot am I cold"
John Edwards "ain't that good enough"
Eddie Kendricks "date with the rain"
Barbara Lynn "trying to love two"
Jean Carne "don't let it go to your head"
Sounds of Blackness "I'm going all the way"
Maxwell "Ascension"
Gerry Devaux "front of the line"
Beloyd "get into your life"
Innersection "I'm in debt to you"
Edwin Starr "running back and forth"
Stevie Wonder "another star"
Brothers of Soul "I'd be grateful"
Celeste Hardie "you're gone"
Robert Parker "I caught you in a lie"
Odds and Ends "let me try"
Cornelius Brothers + Sister Rose "too late to turn back now"
Patricia + The Blenders (lol) "just because"
Moses Smith "keep on striving"
PS my experiment to play funky edge/northern was an epic fail, as the decks were obviously pre-set to eject them off the decks Chosen Few "birth of a playboy" (I tried lol)
