I know talc has always been used by dancers myself included in the past, but recently at an event I was dancing away unaided by talc, to my amazement a guy came onto dance floor poored talc in a circle in centre of floor and before I say anything he vanished into the bar area (he wasn't even dancing)
made dancing difficult for a lot of people, talc poured without thought onto dance floors has increased recently, a friend of mine fell on slippy floor recently and has pot on foot and crutches for a few weeks.
What ever happened to consideration to others, I used put a small amount on edge of dance floor......
Thread related, if not directly responding to post.

Prefer niters in the summer months - Great feel good factor travelling to venue on a summers eve - can take a breather outside (still warm) - dancing at 4.30 am with daylight appearing through curtains - but best of all when you leave it's daylight.......
Dunno what age got to do with anything - I'm in my 40's ( you didn't hear that)
dance quite a bit and have still have energy next day
Think it's all in the mind meself......
Steve - won't spill the beans bout what you got upto when you were a wee lad..

The night is billed as Northern Soul - Across The Board.The DJ spins The Sounds Of Blackness - I'm Going All The Way.
Is it acceptable?
Are we either a 'broad minded church' or a 'narrow minded tribe'?
Just a bit of fun......
Col.
Wouldn't have a prob with this being played - course it's acceptable - it's what modern souls all about ain't it ...............
Get fed up with people having tunnel vision on the soul scene
Soon as I played it - heard it before - think it must have been at a mate's house - he's heavily into Modern... Good tune Col

Took a long while for me to get a copy of this - finally managed to get it from a dealer in America who found it after searching through cases and cases they had in cellar - paid next to nothing for it - forced to sell it couple of years back. Looked out for it over last 6 months but not seen one - hope your lucky.

I wonder who the person was that provided the Quote for the question?Same person that produced the video ("The Northern Soul Story" 2001)
Possibly the same person who wanted to interview women at Cleethorpes - for a female view on northern soul
Ok then who is it ?
Whoever they turn out to be - if this is for real
they didn't have a true understanding of the scene and certainly didn't know what they were talking about - using the term "we" gives the impression others thought the same way
Btw can't find anything on the video!

I was sent a rather large questionnaire about Northern Soul today, by a University student. The question was:I thought that was a fantastic question! What's your answer? I'll tell you mine later as I obviously don't want to incite answers pertinent to my own answer
Most definately not to all three statements. To be honest never entered my head in the 30 yrs I've been involved with the music. Never pretend to be anything other than myself - always danced and still do by expressing my passion and feel for the music through dance - which comes from my heart and soul and nothing else.
In answer to the question - never thought anyone on the scene pretended to be black and Northern soul has never been about pretending to be black.
No way I could ever pretend to sing as though black - anyone heard my attempts at singing will verify that - I'm tone deaf

Hi there,I want to know the price of Allen Wayne No b/w Chills & Fever on TRY Records. I don't think it's a rare one. John Manship has one for 30 GBP, but it's the only one I've seen on the net.
By the way, anybody has a soundclip of the Ronnie Love's version???
Thanks
Dante
My Daughters favourite - she's got to the age of 14, after living eating & breathing Northern since birth and she only likes 2 records - R L - Chills & Fever - has her own copy, and Tony & the Showmen - Try love (dosen't have a copy of that though)
Soundclip if it works and ok with Mike....

Fanfare of trumpetsOn Dave Rimmer's excellent site Lawn 248 is credited to Dick & the Deamonds "Ive got corns/Falling star". The song titles are exactly the same on the Jesse release. Interesting eh?
Which Jesse James it is is anybodies guess...
onwards, derek
I posted up the mystery tune labelled grass.mp3 - am I clever or funny or both (how about neither) the label was Lawn. I can't stop laughing ho ho ho he's such a card that Pearson...
Too right - very funny and clever defo (great clue) didn't help me though
- noticed "Grass", but was unable to come up with anything on that one. Never guessed "Jesse James" - didn't sound anything like - but as you said Which J J !
Got "Falling Star", right although title wasn't that hard was it..........
How about another....
