  1. Wigan ran for nearly nine years. 100 Club, 29 years... More people flocked to Wigan each week and it was a considerably larger venue. But then folk flock from Europe and all over to the 100 Club and they've never played a crap record.. Perhaps the Wheel could be in the running as it was the first, but I doubt it. Torch wasn't really on long enough to be a contender. Blackpool was groundbreaking, but the allnighter? Any other serious contenders? Would be interesting to know at this stage of the scenes history, which all-nighter could be considered the overall most significant nighter?
  2. Was thinking that was a more realistic price today. Chap on here had one for sale earlier this year I think, same sort of money.
  3. Nothing else grips yer heart like soul music does.

  6. Q. What do you get if you cross George Formby with Eddie Murphy? A. "Turned out nice again, you motherfcuker" ...

  8. Perhaps but the post just referred to the album and he sang on all of the tracks on that. Infact I'm struggling to think of any numbers they did that he didn't sing on. I'll have to have a dig (as in a look) and see what's what. Less you can fill us in?
  9. Chalky knows more than me and he's younger than me it's just not fair! However if you listen to Hazel Martin or the Mello Souls and think they're white... Well .. Ral Donner.
  10. I think this post was in response to one oy your's...
  11. Well they are black beach bums with speedos. I don't have photos of that sort of thing though.. Didn't you have all this with Chalky?
  12. Sorry to be a pooper again but the singer (Hazel Martin) was black.
  13. Ray Merrell - Tears Of Joy.
  14. Well as said it's a decent enough venue, wooden floor if memory serves. Similar capacity, bar at the end. Not in a resi area. It's a rugby club just down the road from the old one. Would be great. Wouldn't, shouldn't and couldn't be the end of TOTS though would it? Could it?
  15. Good news if it's on general release. You can't tell who will want to see it and who won't. You can't say it'll only be soulies. The admen have had a ball with NS tunes in the mainstream media in recent years. Who can tell who will want to see it? Not to mention what the advertising/promotional budget will be and how effective that will be. As you've quoted me, I feel obliged to ask why you keep going on about jibes against the young. Who has been doing this jibing? Not quite sure what you mean by "I'm not calling the site". However you have your gripes and they are yours. Corned bee hash sounds yum btw. Hope it's a winner!
  16. I can only speak of my own experiences. I went to the 100 Club for something like 15 years and didn't know that many people. It's only been since being a member here that I have met more people. For me that's been a good thing. One things for sure though, a love of music would keep me involved, no matter what.
