March Manifesto Magazine
Hi All I spoke to Mike about these problems at Prestatyn. He has a new distribution deal which will take care of new subscriptions, but existing subscribers will need to contact him directly. Please bear in mind when emailing that Mike does quite a lot of travelling so patience may be needed waiting for a reply. Geoff can you please post Mike's email address as my new computer seems to have misplaced it. Will post the new sub details later.

Spinners, Album Track Only?
There's a BBC Radioplay LP with a very slightly different take of this track too. The back cover of the "From the vaults LP" had mock up 45s of some of the tracks which may have confused one or two as to the availability of 45s.

Dj's Running Over Their Times
WHilst DJing at Bisley last June I was asked by the promoters to do another 15 minutes to which I replied sure love to - but make sure you tell the guy following me. They of course said they would, but didn't He arrived 5 minutes later and was swiftly off to find the promoters and bring his mate who promptly said "I don't care as long as I get my full set". In the end all was sorted amicably but this could have easily ended up with a confrontation.

Working On The Door
We used to take it in turns to do the door at Soul in the City at both Nylon and Vivo's. As the numbers dropped at Vivo it became a bit of a chore as they insisted we had the door at ground level effectively 2 floors above where the night took place. Having said that it was great to meet and have an early chat with the patrons.

Sam & Irredescants - Without My Sugar
I've got a demo of both too. Never seen issues.
-
Cynthia And The Imaginations
Neither side is included on the Stax Volt singles Vol 3 10 CD box set, so I would assume it didn't make release.

Mid - Week Venues
That's right Ian. We ran from Dec 2001 - Mar 2007. Martin joined us shortly after we started up replacing Rob Chadwick who decided he didn't want to DJ any more. We had 5 venues altogether. Starting at McNab's near Cannon St then the Old Blue Last, where the crowd dropped off from 50 to about 15 - 20 regulars. Then the KFC ads started and we were asked to run a weekly night at Nylon the City night club and star of the Bar Wars TV programme. We managed to persuade the owners to make it monthly though and had really good numbers in until it closed in Dec 2005. Then we were off to Vivos just across Cheapside. where after a good start numbers began to dwindle once more. When Vivo's closed for refurbishment we moved, albiet briefly, to the Ditch bar in Shoreditch, a step too far away from the City it seemed as numbers fell once more the venue pulled the night not long after whilst one of their other nights decided to use the SITC name before we'd even packed up. Good times and great friends!
