Went to the Forum Theatre in Romiley last Friday and watched, again, the play, Once Upon A Time In Wigan. This was then followed by a set from Kev Roberts. Super night 👍

Going to the, ‘Once Upon A Time’ event at Romiley end of July.

Very much so, a few years ago I met his daughter who was accompanying him on a UK tour.

Sad to hear the news, met him a couple of times in recent years. Nice chap who is now on his way.

That’s sad to hear and, for me, it means two local venues have now closed. Monaco and Orrell St James’s.

That is really sad, it’s walking distance for us. Is a ‘replacement’ being considered?

Dean Parish, I’m On My Way.

Been to it over the past years, missing it this year.

Just a heads up, on Sky Documentries chnl 114 tonight @ 10:00pm.

Julianb ....... saw Martha Reeves at the Opera House in Manchester a few years ago, was that the same one and yeah, she was awful. Why don’t these ‘oldies’ realise the good times/voices have succumbed to the aging process.

What time is the first bus in the morning?

Just off to the bar for a beer, anyone want one 🙂

I’ll have an inferiority complex on Saturday night ....... what should I wear, should I get on the floor and dance, oh my god I hope no one is watching me. 😂

Thinking of going, never done one before. Anyone been to one? Are they any good?

This has been mentioned previously however ....... if anyone is over to Tenerife these 3 lads are worth a watch. Saw them at the Soul Lodge and other bars but they do more Motown at the Soul Lodge rather than ‘general’ soul elsewhere. If the couple from County Durham, we met in the Soul Lodge, are reading this if you ever come Wigan way give us a ring.

The 3 clips are well worth watching.

Once again it was a really good event and for a good cause. Although we visited most of the bars in and around the Printworks we did find ourselves in the Bierkeller Wigan Room quite often 😀 And just to add, it was also good to meet and chat to Paul Hayden, one of the dj’s in Eden.

Yeah, been there, down Jackson’s Row.

Thank for the suggestions

Night out next Saturday in Manchester, Print Works, Northern Quarter, Deansgate etc ie in the city centre. Are there any bars, pubs, clubs centrally located playing Northern/Motown? Looking at the events guide there’s ‘stuff’ happening around the outskirts and the Twisted Wheel on Sunday but looking for something Saturday night and central.

Permanent marker on a white board can be removed by writing over it with a dry wipe pen and then wiping it ....... just a thought?

Enjoyed the Motown/Northern Soul event at the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester.

Have a super Christmas & New Year to on a and all.
