Co72revisited & FTMNTC team

Right its just a few weeks to go ....best get the game face on !!


Firstly I just want to put into context the whole CO72 event/happening


This really isn't just ANY 'reunion' event
This isn't is a reunion/anniversary type event..

where the money goes into the bulging pockets of the promoters
(so don't be confused )

ALL PROFITS GO TO CHARITY

Everyone involved in this event is offering their valuable services for free....to maximise the charitable contributions

CO72 has been in existence for many years...quietly going about its business of donating to charities and having a 'whale' of a time in the process !!

The ORIGINAL and best annual 'era' event raising nearly £35,000 for charity since 2008

Your £10 entrance goes to charity guaranteed !!!!

Be safe and secure in the thought...you are making a difference !!

we wont have your pants down !!!! 🙂

Here it is 50 yrs on from that Golden era...

those sounds, those clubs, those memories , those times of our lives !!

JOIN US...the long established Class of 72 charity bash !!!

So far raised over £33,000 and proud of it...we SHOUT IT LOUD

UNLIKE many 'pop up' reunions you may see,

,,ALL YOUR ENTRANCE FEE GOES TO THE CHARITIES

ALL our DJ's, promoters and helpers do it for NO CHARGE

This truly is a charity focussed event !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A 'supreme' line up of DJ's with many actually 'there and doing it in '72 !!''

............................ready to play those sounds of the era...the records. the labels....and those memories !!!

Lets get together and do it.......one more time !!!

TIA

Co72 revisited FTMNTC team

CO72 CHARITY REUNION.......Now in its 14th year

Unashamedly revisiting the sounds from the Allnighters and clubs of our teens...specialising in the music of the Torch, Cats, Twisted Wheel, Junction, Mecca, VaVa and Early Wigan

from that 'Golden' era of late 60's early 70's..... an era that was to define and cement forever ,,,what we know as Northern Soul

....a veritable feast of some of the best sounds ever laid down on vinyl.....
A great day/night out...with 'classic oldies'.....and fantastic music as well 🙂🙂 !!!!

Share and tell your chums

THIS IS A CHARITY EVENT AND YOUR ENTRANCE FEE WILL ALL GO TOWARDS THE CHARITIES DONATION>>>>WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY

A true reunion, I was three when the torch closed, but the nearby venue has cast a long shadow over my life ever since. Proud  and honoured to be asked to play some of my favourite records in my collection from the halcyon days of the legendary venue.
