  1. I saw Ike & Tina live at The Wheel back in the 1960s - they just blew the roof off - absolutely brilliant!! The Wheel was quite a small venue with the tiniest of stages, so the audience were literally inches away from the bands.  The artists sometimes used the same bar (non-licensed of course lol) as the rest of us & we would often get chatting to them while waiting to be served, so it was a bit like seeing your mates on stage. Never did get to actually meet Ike & Tina, but I was lucky enough to chat to quite a few other artists who played there. Didn't realize just how lucky we were at the time! Happy days - I'd do it all again in an instant!

  2. It was cringeworthy to say the least - all it will do is bring in even more drunken handbaggers - for a while anyway - then hopefully they'll all move on & head back to the handbaggers town centre night clubs.......People are right when they blame the film for the explosion in popularity of Northern, although I have to admit that I watched it. Wish the Beeb & the advertisering companies would just leave the Northern scene alone - sickening to hear some of my favourite tunes used to advertise DIY stuff..... Loved the scene when it was underground but it's all becoming too popular now - seems like every man & his dog claims to be into Northern!
