Totally agree.

Just heard on radio 2 a version by Texas. Wtf.

Embrace that moment, enjoy it for what it was. A homage to the longest running youth culture. We where there and loads wish they could have experienced it in the flesh. I did and wouldn't trade the world for it.

I'm interested in why you did leave the scene from 73 to 81 and then you came back to the shit hole you left that was playing white pop music. And how did you discover the music had changed?

Yet here you are telling us plebs how good you are and we who kept the scene going for you to take it to the higher echelons. Many thanks you are truly one of the best. Mr Roburt

What did you expect?

And just checked on the BBC site, the first night, Friday, is on with the proms on TV. And the northern soul prom on the Saturday also says proms on TV.

Have a feeling it will be on the iplayer.

I'm sick of the how we needed a release from the grim satanic mills. I went because it was cool the music and the fashion was all different to what the mainstream had to offer. It was a feeling of belonging and giving two fingers to the rest of the population who were tucked up in their beds when I was dancing, buzzing and solving the problems of the world. And let's not forget the journey. Hitching lifts, trains and bus. Getting in with a mate who had a car. I got me dad out of bed to take me to birch services so I could get a lift to Wigan. Mad times but great times! Two fingers to your dark times we lit up the night.

In a bar/cafe in Stavanger, Norway. Last stop on the cruise Terry Callier Ordinary Joe comes on. Mind blown! And PP Arnold was the entertainment on board the ship.

Let's guess will it be the first Muslim country to win the world cup?

Same old batch of photos. Midweek nights, makes the casino look like a youth club.

Hamburg docks Sunday afternoon after the weekender.
