Carms The splits are too deep for us owld gits now,they won't be resolved until there isn't a baggy trouser to be wafted or chin to be stroked (sorry Des).So for your utopia to appear it will have to wait until most of us are back dropping in the nighter in the sky & the scene will be back to a small number of dedicated soulies who are now the "young un's"..............the only problem with that is they will have been on the scene for a number of years by then so will have had time to have there own differences between themselves so will be going off in all directions & keep the good old politics well & truly alive Cheers Martyn the optimist- Poll: Bbc Culture Show - Northern Soul - Your Take ?
Derek As always the voice of reason......& quite a prompt post by your playlist standards Cheers Martyn- Handbags At Dawn
Nearly spot on,the only thing I take slight exception to is the "cause no trouble & follow etiquette" bit?From previous answers on this thread we are to dissolve all previous rules that has taken us the best part of 40+ years to put in place & respect in a spirit of including all,because we should be open to all & not expect people to behave in the way we have been brought up to do.So if they want to fight & throw beer on the dancefloor so be it,because they're new & we want to include them & put no pressure on them with our elitist ways..........yes I'm been pedantic & I'm sorry I've used your answer to make my point because you make some very good points. We seem to be pussy footing around here..........I'm proud to be elitist,I'm proud I'm dedicated,I'm proud I'm not like everyone else,I'm proud I don't have to make apologies for that. I'm aghast that some people think it's OK for people to come in and not learn our ways & start dictating how we behave?Why if someone turns up at a couple of soul night's should they expect the same respect that those who have shown the dedication & commitment over time get.I would hope they would aspire to want such respect,so to get that they would learn our ways & after time they will get it.........just like we had to.

I'd like to go to see what it's like but the kids would only think I was squad..........I remember when I was the one thinking anyone over 25 at a nighter was squad.........god I feel old.............oh no I am old Cheers Old Martyn- Uptempo Female Songs
Can't help with sheet music but here's a couple uptempo tunes that fit the bill? Bonnie Brisker-So Much Lovin Magic City The Bobbettes-Having Fun RCA More if you want them? Cheers Martyn- Handbags At Dawn
I'm getting a bit bored with all this really...........baggie trousers,nostalger,blah,blah. It is what it is & I'll just try to avoid coming into contact with such events as I have little in common with the night's or the people who frequent them. I keep hearing about keeping it an underground scene?So pick night's at the other end of the spectrum of the mainstream ones & it still is because you won't be seeing any of that lot at them. Failing that we could always contact some of the right rough twats who used to frightened the life out of us at nighters back in the day & tell them what easy picking there are to be had at northern night's these days.They'd soon thin the crowds out & probably make a few bob along the way Cheers Martyn- Information From Where? Future Classics?
Russ That's a little bit of the problem?There's still a few night's about that are worth going to so people (me included) feel there's no real reason to change things.It's not as if it's a total desert out there,unfortunately I think we'll need to loose a few more of the better night's before we shake off our apathy & realise if someone doesn't do something our side of the scene will just fade away. Cheers Martyn- Information From Where? Future Classics?
Russ I hope you're right & our history says it will happen.I think it might take one of the younger lot to grab the bull by the horns & step up & inject us old farts with some enthusiasm for a last hoorah...........& yes I wanna be there Cheers Martyn- Information From Where? Future Classics?
Russ I have to agree with Phil about night's,it pains me to do so because it goes against everything the scene used to be about.My experience of night's trying to cover all bases just don't work as people are so entrenched in what they want to hear they aren't willing to spend time listening to something they don't like/know. I remember Paul playing stuff he was on about at The Wilton a few years back & not knowing one of them but thinking it was a breath of fresh air & it certainly ruffled a few feathers with some & that was at a venue that was renowned for been forward thinking. So I think it's fine idea but I'll be very surprised if a venue of any size doing that lasts any length of time............which is a crying shame I know but that's where the scene is at this moment in time.

Is Paul Mason on here?I'd be interested in his thought's after reading this thread.Has he been to any more "do's" since his return,has he any intentions of a follow up in some form etc. Just a thought? Cheers Martyn- Poll: Bbc Culture Show - Northern Soul - Your Take ?
That would be great..............but could you imagine how long the thread on here would be for a full series covering our history(& it would still not be right) Cheers Martyn- Poll: Bbc Culture Show - Northern Soul - Your Take ?
