Paul, I am amazed how many hits you have had on this subject. Wishing you a Happy and Mellow New Year. Enjoy your music (whatever form it takes) we never know how many summers we have left on this beautiful planet, so enjoy, see you soon xx

Would have thought your avatar might have been a little clue Tony

As for the term Mod ain't it just an abbreviation of Modern so if a Mod is going to listen to RnB should it not be 2009 RnB & not something as old as their parents

Mods from Manc & the big Smoke - Who was the King of the Mods? Peter Stringfellow from Sheffield before he moved down South to make his millions. Remember the Mojo?

Back on topic.

Why do blokes in their 50's still go to nighters?

Same reason as blokes in their 50's go fishing & play golf.

To get away from her indoors for a few hours

'scuse me but some of us take err indoors with us

know loads that do

ps,will be 55 this November and my claim to fame was that at the age of sixteen/seventeen had worked the summer to save enough to get the train to Manc and get into the wheel,well it got busted and closed down the week b4

I'm off to a soul night in 10 mins and you'll be delighted to know I won't be spinning any records.

Does the term r&b mean the stuff that would never have got any plays in any decent venue , cause basically its crap

and is it usually played by 2nd rate djs who either have no taste ,knowledge or access to decent soul music.

YES

MEN DO NOT QUIT PLAYING BECAUSE THEY GROW OLD

THEY GROW OLD BECAUSE THEY QUIT PLAYING

That's brilliant, and very profound....

spare a thought for the 50+ bloke who wants to be 15 again who has a wife at home who hates the fcuking music and most of the twats connected to it

I took my Mrs to a soul night 2 years ago to convince her it could be a cracking night out.

1.I had some lass come up to me and suggest that I was a wanker on soul source, "whos she Paul?"

2. I had a bloke come up to me who must have been 55, had a vest on with a Wigan badge in the middle and a beer mat tcuked in his belt who suggested he knew us both from way back when whilst doing he very best to look blocked to fukk..."whos he Paul?"

3.I then had a bloke ask me what was the title of a record I played at wherever 6 months earlier, he even hummed the fooker...." did you know the record Paul?"

4. I then had someone I know from a few years ago ask my wife if WE wanted any gear, my wife then asked if she could return home and watch The Sound of Music.....

I have tried guys, honest but sometimes its a major problem getting out

just a wild guess ... was the bloke who hummed the tune Tennessee Ernie Ford by any chance

Beeks why aren't you out!! Why aren't I out??? Still feeling a bit rough!

I was DJing till late then back to a party which turned into a 6am job...very messy...and i'm now lounging around in my jim jams feeling sorry for myself

No, it was Bob Trotter.....

1.) Is Bob Trotter back on the scene?

2) The way you've worded your post it would appear that most people connected to the Northern scene are twats.

3) I think that's a bit strong.

You go to the wrong venues .

You go to the wrong venues .

Ive come to the conclusion after disecting this thread Andy that I need to do all-nighters instead of these poxy soul-nights then I we wouldn't have our evenings ruined by these deranged individuals.

So thank you everybody for your answers I'm back on the right track..topic now closed.
