Kike Dee
Went to see Rob Smith yesterday while in Notts purchased a number of albums for 20p each One of which was Kenny Thomas - Voices, have fell head over heels for a track called 'outstanding' another was KIKI DEE on MFP which includes 'love like a warm kind of sorrow" now I;m not sure if this is jangling around in my head via the early Casino days or it was before that as a nine year old watching BLACK BEAUTY as a kid on TV. Put me out of my misery someone...

How the DJs of the time played it (interview with Richard Searling) and the real atmosphere captured with a live recording from the Casino circa August 1974.

Jersey Boys, 100 Club & Hotel
Its my 29th wedding anniversary 20th Sept so the Mrs and I have agreed on a weekend away in London, dhopping, meal, some entertainment and footy on the Sunday need some advice. Whats the nearest 4 star hotel to the 100 club? we have chosen the Radison Edwardian Grafton however looking at the map seems like miles away. Anyone been to The Jersey Boys show? whats your verdict. 100 club all nighter? applying for tickets today my Mrs aint a member it would appear thats now not an issue, is that correct. PD

Ive told this before.. 2 years ago at a certain soul night in Peterborough I was queing up for a beer with this bloke in his late 40's who wasn't a local the converstation went like this.. ME...mate don't take offence but why do you dress like that? ( vest with a wigan badge, baggies, beer mate, etc etc) HIM....why do you dress like that? ( Stone Ilsand pullie, nice cut jeans, some wrangler boots) ME...no offence mate but I didn't even dress like that back in 1974, just can;t get me head round why you wanna 'dress up' HIM..."Its what I like to wear" ME...no problem mate, just I wouldn't been seen dead in that. HIM...you think I'm a sad bastard don;t ya? ME...Not at all... HIM...I 'll tell you who the sad bastard are, them over there (pointing to the record dealers) sad twats them lot are, they think its really cool to buy some record that no one has ever heard of nor will probably like for £100. they're all f--kin bonkers mate.. ME-- couldn;t agree more. btw it was a long queue.

Ian Levine, Motorcity, Centre City, Blackpool Mecca, And Swons
My freinds would have never posted such personal stuff on an open forum Pete, Id like to think they had more respect for me. It would appear to some that IL is reaching for the sympathy vote in his quest for foot soldiers. Imo he's a Northern soul legend for so many reasons he's also the most sycophantic indvidual I have EVER come across. Cya
