After the article was well received I've been persuaded to write the book.  I will shortly be getting stuck into the research bit (already started for one or two areas/venues) and need some help with venues. I would like to include as many as possible, especially if they ran for any length of time.  I'm after all-nighter promotions to begin with but in time I will include influential soul nights, all-dayers and weekenders.

So basically please get in touch.  I need dates when the promotion started and finished, music policy, djs and any other information that you might think useful.  Scans of any flyers at 300dpi would be great or if you can't scan a loan of any material with the promise of a return by recorded post.

I would like to make this as comprehensive was possible so any help will be greatly appreciated.

If you didn't promote but have any flyers for venues post Wigan, particularly 1990 up to today scans would be brilliant.  Again if you cannot scan them then maybe a loan of any material with the promise of recorded post return.

I will also include a chapter covering the influential DJ's of the last 35 years or so. So if you were one of them I will be in touch.

Please PM and I will pass on my contact details.

Many thanks 

Chalky

I also need help from my friends worldwide as I will dedicate time in the book to the scene outside of the UK.  So if you promoted an event worldwide please PM me with the details, dates, flyers etc.

It sure will, looking forward to it though.  The more help I get he easier it will be though.

I also need photos of venues and people, particularly on the dance floor.  300dpi or again a loan would be great.

C'mon there is plenty of promoters and ex promoters on here, surely some of =you have something to offer?

Hi Chalky

I posted some good pictures of Steve Crofts Cleethorpes all niters on here ages ago - not sure the quality will be what you're looking for and I can't find the originals now.
