nowt ta do with the Torch but found these today

and

some fantastic archive stuff from the Highland Room

Its a bloody shame we can't convince one of the most influential Northern DJ's of all time and main main at the Torch during 1973 Mr Ian Levine to come along and give it large at the Torch Reunion... :ohmy:

Edited by PaulDonnelly

played most of these records on the links cant help thinking these were the best sounds out of any period of northern, I was to young for the wheel and torch etc and only made it to wigan in 1980 but most of these records were played at various youth clubs i went to around stockport by the older lads who were sowing there dj seeds ie paul kidd lead singer with the casino all starrs or paul bosher rip etc. great times.

Oh yes there is Ronnie .......

ALL those that have reserved tickets have been sent an email regarding payment details

ALL those that have responded and paid , thank you your tickets have been despatched today.

The Ticket is a two part ticket which has a perforation that will enable us to keep part when you enter with the remainder being an exact replica of the original Torch membership card for you to keep as a momento

Please note if payment is not received within 28 day from the date of said email then we will presume you no longer require the tickets reserved and will offer elsewhere, The venue is compact however very atmospheric (just like it used to be) with a capacity of just under 300, we expect to sell out my 1st week in March.

For those that want too Malc, Jez and I will be near the infamous Torch Plaque at 1300hrs Post Code ST6 5AL for funny handshakes and the odd photo before setting off at 1345hours fort the 1st Music session 2pm till 6pm.

Although the tickets suggest 7-30 re-open we will in fact be opening up again for 7pm for another session of Hose Street memories through to gone 12 midnight

Thanks for you support Malc, Jez and PD
