"2 Known Copies"
Always will remember Mr. Levine declaring "Only copy in the country -Del Larks- Job Opening" and my mate Kenny shouting back "oh no it isn't- just got that in a Soul Pack" Oh , how we laughed ATB Tony (makes more sense now)

Manchester Oldies Scene Dead?
We begin to get the the nub of it................ Yes, is still a lot of "Soul "in the North west, the three venues you mention, plus Lowton of course are the ones that I would consider do it the right way. However-there are plenty of nights, that do not list on here, probably don't even know this site exists, insisting on putting on do's with little or no regard to anybody else,further, as I've said before, splitting the limited crowd still further until it eventually disappears up it's own arse. But, hey, so what- LOOK AT ME, I CAN FILL A DANCEFLOOR ME! Tony

I Honestly Would Like To Know
Without going into the History of the World Part 2, This is all you need to know. If you are not passionate about format and want to possess any tune for Your own listening pleasure buy whatever the f*ck you want and get on with it. What you should never ever do is, take all those dolly mixtures and start up your own night, cos you got what the people want, and screw up the Venues that do it right-See Manchester etc. ATB Tony

Manchester Oldies Scene Dead?
I must be in the minority then. I have no problem with hearing the tunes from "All our Yesterdays", and I believe that a good "local" soul night should play a good cross section of old and new, but it MUST be on original format, if you are a promoter and you ain't got the Tunes you employ DJ's that DO! I just can't understand people defending those that can't, don't or wont get it. Yeah, Ok some people want to hear the Same Old week in week out but that doesn't give Carte Blanche to every man and his dog to start up yet another night offering nothing new. We all say that it's not about the money, but with Bonzo Dogg and the DooDahs fragmenting what is left of a reasonably small scene anyway, many venue's that do it right are feeling the pinch or having to close entirely because they can not afford to loose money every month or two. Rant over. for now. Tony

Manchester Oldies Scene Dead?
Interesting point raised by Jayne on the the Blackpool thread, about thhe seeming lack of NorthWest faces there. Is the Oldies Scene over. Well, probably not when you consider how many do's were on Sat. I know of at least 3- excluding the "Big One" within 10 miles of each other that probs only pulled an average of 30 folk in each. So lets call that 90 plus the odd dozen or so that got ripped off, paid £30 to get in the Tower, That's over 100 people that that would have created a decent atmosphere at any night. The BIG problem is that anyone with a box of pressings thinks they can start a night, and DO!. Still, format don't matter. Do it???? Tony

I suppose this falls into the category of "This is What I would have played if I wasn't too poorly to come to The Junction last Saturday, but I'll save it for January now" then , does it? Tony
