========== I had assumed as much, but I'm in love with clarity

What's the latest John, heard nothing over the weekend?

=========== Agreed Gibby should have better manners, but it clearly says on the promotions/flyers one of our DJ's plays off CDs so not sure how relevant that is?

========== In Town Mikey put up a reply about northern earlier this year, that sums up everything, maybe someone could reproduce it? Gave me shivers when I read it

============ In fairness, an alcohol ban isn't imminent, so promoters don't really need to get involved unless its from a personal viewpoint as opposed to a promotional one? Just a thought

=========== Yeah talc is just so dangerous...... Don't drink at nighters but that's my choice. Maybe with advancing years many have found the social side has become more important than dancing? Think the thing is Ken, if alcohol wasn't served at nighters, I think attendances would drop dramatically. Not sure why you're not including soul nights in this, most bars shut at 2 whether its a nighter or a soul night? Winnie:-)

============ Don't think there's an absolute definition, probably best to let northern soul be what you want it to be

============ Stevie, even if I were to be asked I'd have to decline as I have too much going on. So you still have first dibs

You did a tough job well Shane

like me once i started getting right into it aint it natural to keep wanting to hear more tunes and learning more about what the scene is really all about. or am i just a wiedo like they say i am Bearsy

=========== Personally I think they're a great place to start, in general (please note I've said in general) they've got a bit more oomph to them and maybe a more commercial sound than some of the current faves, and probably they're more dance friendly, all important points to someone experiencing the scene for the first time. Course this is only my opinion Winnie:-)

============ I walked away............... I'm walkin down this lonely avenue, A picture of your face keeps comin through blah de blah Tend to give it large to Brown Sugar and Pyramid these days as well What's worse......... I'm not normally drunk

============ Know what you mean Danny, but I think 'if you really love me' isn't out of its depth at a northern do

=============

Very sad

============ Innit narborough road?

=========== Think its a great record, surprised people want to shred it?? Also heard behind a painted smile at Sharon and Steve's 25th anniversary the other night and it sounded brilliant

========== It's since you went all conservative Mikey, all this talk of the death penalty has changed you

========== Yep agree with these 3 also agree with Simon about the Velvets. Will add Time marches on - Laine Hill Time will pass you - Toby Legend Crying over you - Duke Browner

=========== No, from a personal angle don't feel the need to just yet, not that I'm knocking anybody who did go, its just while I'm still active on the scene I prefer to go that route to get my fix

============ I hadn't realised it was that long ago, time just flies

=============

============== I had sort of guessed that she may be single, and assumed she'd wondered why she hadn't been chatted up. By improving her gaydar, maybe she'd cut down on what she sees as wasting her time chatting to the wrong guy? Personally I think the vast majority of the scene is doing what you say, going out and having a good dance and a good time, but I'm sure you've made her aware of that

========== Never meant you weren't PC, was saying I wasn't PC for laughing out loud at it But as you say, it was the madness of the question that would have made what you said such an good answer. ie: answer the question with what the questioner would like to hear I have no idea about your sexual orientation, it has no relevance to me, but I do have a friend who'd like to know if you ever wear high visibility jackets

=========== Yep, exactly the point
