northern soul...is like the world darts championships at frimley green.....bowling shirts wiv ya name on em,loadsa bling and big banners everywhere proclaiming NORVERN SOOUL.

Rare soul is sorter the same music without the above tinsletown image.

I started to watch the darts sunday and had to turn it off cos your so right , well funny

My heart always lies with the classics and in particular real good uptempo tracks, the ones you can dance to... I cannot move to a slow song for love nor money!

Me neither... at 49! tis a crazy scene indeed... gonna start a thread titled 'did N.S ruin your life'? mmm x

Northern Soul is not dead ........... most of its fans have at least 5 or 10 years of life left !

Just gone 35 and being coerced in to adulthood by my girlfriend, but putting up a tenacious struggle.

Hi,

Can't believe it! Three pages, and I'm the youngest...

Actually I felt kind of old. Don't be mad, but you guys quite raised my spirits again

Thats funny... and probably true for a lot of us x

age ,depends on what clubs a person wants to pretend that they went too.

Ha ha given me a good laugh, if only it wasn't true. You know it's time to exit stage left when you hear those immortal words " when I went to blah blah blah"

No drainpipe climbing with my sleep with one eye open Mother so perhaps I am just jealous.
