They're great Steve. Put them in the car mate. You can't take them with you, not that I want you to pop your mortal clogs. I thought sod it and on the windscreen it went.

Mark. That smell was unique. I've been going nighters since 75 and I've been in some real old venues and nothing else has ever got close to that aroma.

Probably right there mate. We all good thanks, looking forward to playing out in Geordie land tomorrow at the Fed. Here's my contribution to the posters.

Gaz.. Trust you and the lovely Debs are well mate .
On the posters it's advertising Casino car stickers at 30 p . I would want more than that for mine.
I wouldn't put it in any of my cars until a few years ago then I thought sod it.
Not forgetting the lovely drips of condensation mixed with tobacco stains off the ceiling that made a proper mess of any light coloured clothes that you happened to be wearing .
Plus the heat, they think it's hot now summer of 76 was almost pass out heat in the casino and that was without even dancing.

Looking back, the place was falling apart just like every old council building in every town in the country . Most places the councils had turn these old theatre/ dance hall's into cinemas. So i guess we where lucky in that we managed to get to spend time there.
I wouldn't have missed the six greatest / happiest years of my life spent in the now legendary venue between 1975 until it's closure 1981 and it's made me who I am today
