  1. Happy days travelling up to Shotts on the coach that Guy ran or the mini bus that Dean got from work
  2. We were regulars all over then Byrney Can remember us both DJing at Ripley and have it on tape somewhere I think with us both on The Chesterfield squad were very heavy handed. From 6 allnighters they caught one person with a couple of grams of speed, they would have had more success down the Adam and Eve the dozy pillocks At the end of the day the police didn't want the nighters there, they even objected to an application for a licence for one of the local colliery brass bands :graywanker: They caused the management , who were well up for the nighters to be held there some right grief In the end it wasn't worth the hassle. Apparently the management was asked a couple of years ago about the prospect of nighters there again and they seemed keen at the time, nothing came of it. If I could afford it I would do it myself, best venue I've ever been in, one 700 capicity room, one 400, one for 150/200 and a smaller one for record bar, superb place, grade two listed so in great nick

  5. I agree mate but it ain't that Rock and Roll crap some play Thats what I can't stand Buddy Ace...played at Northern Soul nights/nighters....must be Northern Soul then
  6. Best period for for music IMHO the 80's Loads of stuff we listened too just waiting to be re-discovered by the returnees of the 90's Rob also ran some dayers under his Soul Power banner in Mansfield somehwere, can't remember where, think they were on a Sunday Rob was one of the best at the time IMO, just didn't get the breaks he should have done.

Remember Trotters very well, hardly missed one...remember Pete Lawson getting barred by the bar staff at one of the days Was turned into a rave club. 1987 the Winding Wheel all-nighters in Chesterfield were in full swing run by Danny Everard and Dave Thorley.
