He also told me how he got the Pier very cheap by back handing the manager who told the owners that the soul nights were very quiet badly attended events .One night the owners made a suprise visit to see what a soul alnighter was all about ? And walked into a heaving mass of sweaty bodies The owners pulled the manager over and asked " you said these events were badly attended ! To which he replied " up until the last two they were . They have only just started take off !!" Needles to say the rental went up after that .

Shaun told me about the time he booked Gene chandler .He said he was in the starlight room adjusting the black out curtains that probably hadn't been cleaned for 40 years when a group of men came over to him Shaun came down his ladder covered in 40 years of dust and asked if he could help ? One of the guys introduced himself as Genes manage .Shaun asked where's Gene ? To which bloke replied he's stood next to you ! Gene asked Shaun " What's my biggest record on the soul scene ? " to which Shaun replied "probably ,There was a time . That night Gene played all his other songs and at the end of his performance asked the crowd " are there any other songs you want ?" To which the crowd started to chant ,There was a time ,There was a time .To which Gene turned to the band and asked " we didn't rehurse that one " Then turned round to a disappointed audience and sang " One two three four " The place went mental .

Going out with Shaun Gibbons on Saturday night ,so will get some of his stories to post on here

Just spoke to Shaun .He held his first nighter at the pier April 83 Shortly after the 3rd anniversary it was closed by the city council due to damage to decking on the pier caused by scooter boys jumping up and down on the pier in the queue to get in . 2 or 3 planks cracked which could have easily been repaired but the council wouldn't have it . Weeks later it burnt down .

Is Eddie Bishop still available ? Been working away so mist listing till now ! Regards Garry

tragic news and way far to young . Will miss you mate as will a lot of others .deepest sympathy to Carol . RIP Garry
