Nothing crap about "Tears" my friend. Nothing. Great beginning. Great hook. Great song about 3.30am at the Casino.

What a fantastic read. BUMP.

Frank Wilson....Deffo...... Casino. Jean Carter.....Like One....Casino. Doni Burdick.....Bari Track ....When it was covered at the Mecca. That blew me away at the time. Thought it couldnt be beat. Marvellos.... Somethings Burning.......My loft on a tape from a guy called Pecker from Royton, Oldham. Nita Rossi.... Something To Give...... Spinning Jenny, Accrington, spun by Guy H. Not everyones cup of tea but I love it still.

I thought Id stumbled upon the "VIZ" comic book site by mistake. You are MR LOGIC.

Thanks everyone. Gonna leave the one Ive seen in a collection listed alone now.

Hi all. Just a quickie. Did Yum Yums ever get booted on abc as a white demo. Gonna be a big thing. Cheers in advance.

Yeah. I quite like that.

Miserable. Why bother posting? I dont geddit. And Im not gonna get into an argument so dont bother replying back. Please.

That looks nice.

Thats what this forum is about though. The past. Pmt week??

connie clark..........ann perry.........afternoon on the rhino...........nevertheless........ritchie adams....Casino. 73/74 .17yrs old and skinny as fook.

That has to be the one post that has made me spontaneously laugh right out loud the most ever on this site. Pure quality sir. The wife nearly jumped out of her skin when I burst out laughing.

Ive said it before, but I,ll say it again. You make me laugh out loud. Sorry Jock I dont know you but that comment made me laugh. Stay cool.

Boogaloo party..........Queen of fools.........You get your kicks.........I spy for the FBI. These were all youth club sounds for me. It definately was an age thing. You had to start somewhere.

Have to agree.

The lad in the red sweater is Duncan Gannon. An old mucker. He was gam for anything. It was he and Brian Waterhouse and myself who climbed up the back of the Casino and got in thru the top cloakrooms roof windows.

Me too. I dont get it .Also The Chandlers was played and massive at Band club in Accy way before Wigan closed.

No. Short dark hair. Just remember watching her dance and her skirt spinning out. Asked about her to people, I think thats were Lancaster comes in.

Oops. Just noticed the thread is about memories but not the music. Aah well.

Climbing up a drain pipe at the back of the Casino, moving over the roof, knocking on the top cloakrooms skylights, so that people could open them, so we could drop in, dead cool like..........Early doors being in the Beachcomber, that would be 1974ish......scary........... Having 10 roche 2s outside front door after being sold them as uppers. Remember being in the queue and feeling woozy as fook. Went in and slept outside mr ms all night. This girl from Reading stayed with me to make sure I was ok..............Remember being inside early one morning with the sun streaming through the windows and Johnny Bragg playin........Strange what you remember associated with records.....Remember walkin along the balcony having just come up the stairs near to the bogs, when Richard introduced "Here we have the Lebaron strings with I miss my baby" Turned round and ran down the stairs straight on to the dance floor and danced my bollocks off to it. There were only about 20 people on the floor. Obviously the Casino didnt have the song as Bari Track as yet but I knew it from Blackpool. That were a good moment...................Every time The Four Perfections came on I was coming down for some strange reason................One fit girl dressed in white dancing under the flourescent light. I think she came from Lancaster..........Gail from Wigan............Shady guys wandering around with flat caps on looking at you with wild eyes............A lad called Pecker from Royton, Oldham................First time I wore my new como shoes and these 2 guys wanted them off me on wigan bus station..............Yessir you had be alert in them days...................Travelling to Wigan in my mates dads car with the battery terminals held together with mole grips..........Being dropped off right outside in the main throng another night after babysitting earlier with a girl from Bolton called Anne Robertson in a top of the range jag..............Loads more...I wouldnt change a single thing.

Yeah. Im from Blackburn. A couple years younger than those guys. They used terrorise us. If you saw them coming you used to dart away sharpish like.

The opening instrumental bars of Bob Brady/Conchords........Everybody going to a love in. As good as it gets for me.

This tune always takes me back to the Casino. An old buddy, Pongo from Clitheroe used to stomp big time to this. Tremendous record.
