Poll: Bbc Culture Show - Northern Soul - Your Take ?
This is why mods don't get so much stick for still wearing period dress, as they are sharp sixties suits that still look cool. 70's bags though these days? Killer 70's fashion as opposed to cool sixties.. There's another thread in this, mods responsible (to a large part) for NS snobbery & elitism..

If only they would think better of it when appearing in a tv documentary about our scene. Makes us all look like idiots.

Not on my account, you were spot on. A light hearted comment on someone's hilarious bloomers, doesn't warrant comments about 'assaults' on said persons..

Poll: Bbc Culture Show - Northern Soul - Your Take ?
Very good observation by me mate Dave... "Northern soul fans are distinguishable by their tattoos, cloth badges and faces that say "I spent the 1970s doing spins and drops to driving American soul records in sprung Northern ballrooms between the hours of 2am and 8am" That is a quote from the Radio Times from tonights Culture Show.

Toughie, but on our scene everyone is a dj, so there would be some fecker with his/her pro plus & Red Bull giving it large..

Quick off topic, there's ammo there for a poll if we haven't done it before - How important are drugs on the scene? If everyone who normally does gear didn't turn up to the next popular nighter, there'd be the dj and a dozen dancers?

Well the presenter knew his onions, could still dance (just about) and spin. Boy was he proud of that spin! Elaine bits were great and the clips from the film looked interesting. Just let down by Ronald Mac Donald, as we knew we would be..

So Many Djs... Why?
Thinking about it, it seems I don't see 'Across The Board' so much any more? I like a bit of everything. On a good night, it'll be a few modern tracks, some interesting new/rare, underplayed oldies and maybe a popcorn-esq obscurity or two? I'd go 3 hours in the car and pay 25 quid for me & Mrs Me for that kind of action.

Wow sixteen years! I have been a member of this fine site for half that time, but in that time, I have met lots of good people, I have bought and sold plenty of records, I have read, sometimes in amazement some of the articles in the fantastic 'Look At Your Box' and 'All About The Soul' sections. All in all very enjoyable and worthwhile, which is the whole point of the site. Big thanks and hats off to Mike and everyone involved in Soul Source. Keep up the good work!- Comedy Sale Of The Day
