Heavy feet...trestle table...records....equals fear :0)

Does the question mean 'where are the D.J.'s' going to take us next? The Northern scene does take a while to play certain stuff that has been played on other scenes for a while.

Minnie Ripperton sample: "The Orb - A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld

I don't know if this is funny or not these days: https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290928012695&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:GB:1123

Cheers Reg - thanks for taking the time to post too.

Palmyra Bar is the place to go .....friendly welcome Will pass on the info to other soulies Thankx Fred !" "Loved it!"

Hoping to catch Dave tonight, not spooke to him in years - he's on at The Parr Hall do and I'm playing in the bar alongside.

Yeah, belting fella, His Missus was a bit of a white witch at the time. His whole front room was kitted out with 7" racking - all over the place - had many a good dig - and his decks were set up near the bay window. He had cork walling put in to minimise the noise to the neighbours.

The worst thing about the 100 Club was that grimy old fag machine that was loaded only with the driest of dry fags - Rothmans.

Used to go fairly regularly mid 80s +. If we caught the train down we'd generally put some Dexies in a matchbox (for the next morning) and hide 'em under a tree in one of the parks on the walk in - could never find 'em the next day. If I went with Bri Rae we would nip down to the Jazz night beforehand on occassion. Prob get dropped at Danny's (scary flat - flop bed and a tailors dummy - toliet in the basement three floors down with all the windows smashed) for a later pick up. I'd stay at a blokes called Cliff White if I got a lift down from someone to London on the Friday day. Ions warm-ups were they at The Old Ball (???). Always loved the walk round London in the morning waiting for the first train to Wire which was !2.30pm - always seemed to be sunny.

This is what this board's about.

Come on....give 'em up.

Preston Street Dancers got everywhere.

:lol: I NEED to hear that one.

The Seeds was a highlight for me too - just the atmosphere the big old banger created. But each to their own ay!?

I can relate to it very well as it's bang on 'my' time @ Wigan.

Hope Steve doesn't mind me posting this but thought it was a nice review: https://www.soul-source.co.uk/articles/soul-articles/wigan-casino-may-1980-r552

Robbed in one go: Tavasco Daybreak Charles Johnson Bill Harris Alfie Davison Rideout Will Collins Ron Henderson ...to name a few. Still haven't replaced the Daybreak, Ron Henderson and Tavasco.

Wouldn't like the fall out mate.
