Paris Blues
I dont 'get' Paris Blues. an old wigan boy told me the reason this record got big was because it had a drug reference in the title. - i guess he got his paris blues mixed up with the french ones

Vestax Or Numark Portables
Shane, are you implying I only use cheap batteries?

Vestax Or Numark Portables
hi dave, i havent tried the numark but try find an alternative to the vestax. it's a bit heavy & bulky & doesnt play too loud. it also eats batteries. is a battery portable a necessity? there's a great 'plug only' one that turns up on ebay.co.uk quite often. it's a generic 70s player called 'fidelity' - it's the best portable ever! it's reasonably light , neat & plays very loud. will try find a link if you are interested. pm me if you wanna know more, i used to collect portables - what was i thinking?

R.e. Acrobatics N All
what? damn, curses. having spent far too much time watching the This England footage I was under the impression back drops were properly executed in an almost sitting position with the instep of each foot practically touching the floor. arrgh. back to the drawing board then..... r.e. the one leather glove i thought it originated in the twisted wheel, the floor was cement so it was the only way the boys could get a one handed handstand spin going on.....or maybe the torch. i get confused with all these old venues

apologies for posting misleading info about my 45 - i've got a styrene copy too. why the hell would anyone bootleg a 45 on styrene? & does this mean the styrene will self-destruct in 2 years time?? poor you trevski, i guess the 'normal' record buying population havent even heard of styrene

-
R.e. Acrobatics N All
billy - at the risk of seeming very stupid are you serious about walking in a straight line with your eyes closed? how does this help with spins?
-
R.e. Acrobatics N All

R.e. Acrobatics N All
hi shane, taking you up on the suggestion of starting a new thread on this topic I was surprised to see this comment in the thread asking for northern soul dancers & even more surprised to see some people agree with this. that's not a dig at shane. it's just that to me a big part of northern soul is about dancing with my friends & egging them on when it comes to a break so they'll be down on the floor throwing themselves about with all disregard for their physical well-being. is it the general consesus that acrobatics are best forgotten (sob) would love to know what you all think about this
