I ask the question simply to reveal piss poor answers from people like yourself prikiey.

You may be right lads, I'm in the early stages of this project and if you knew how difficult it is to interview Gerry, you'd understand. It is great pic though innit?

1963 for the lads that care.

I've just started to collate information about one of my mates, Gerry Kenny aka The Minister Of Noise, Sir Freddie Viadukt etc with a view to writing his biography and as I have done so I have found that Gerry used to play in the 60's for a band from Leigh (Lancashire) named 'The Beat Boys'. Here they are: Check Georgie out second left, his first band. Leigh-Boy and proud of it.

The post I made about the use of the word 'Revival' against 'Re-union' was wholeheartedley meant in the way I stated it. I understand that my usual view-point can be open to interpretation but in this case I did in no way intend it to be a slight toward the only bloke on her that 'gets' where I am coming from - and I pmed him to say so. Revival smacks of money, Re-union sounds right to me - end of. Have I mis-read the responses? As I would never diss anyone in the manner I feel that it may be read that I have, surely you can see that? ps I am in no way getting stressed over this - okay?

I'm not sure if the question was too big for some of you to answer, but I must say the replies on the whole (apart from the positive ones, but I would say that wouldn't I?) were poor. Keep at it lads.

G'night.

...er.. hang on! My input on this board regards this scene may come across simply as pissed up and ill-thought out views of a rambling clueless idiot. I assure you they are.

It's good to talk Steve.

Could I please ask you all to refrain from using that God-awful whistling gif. I mean, what does it mean|?

You know that is a fecking blinder of a question

As purchasing Northern of late has gotten us all OCD whereby you get all obsessive about how many times your vinyl actually comes into contact with a stylus and all that shit. You know wherbey you buy a record on the basis that it 'is okay to dj with' (?????) I read this as I read the prawn sandwich brigade: It seems that you either have to be that 'hard' or that financially secure to actually 'play' your records on this scene today. Stop it off lads. We all know that we have gone out of our way to obtain these tracks, we all know what we are able to do with our records...so, lets stop wanking each other off and admit the only sensible thing to do with our 'record collections' (cos that's what they are these days, just bad tattoos), is preserve them for the bloke you would like to be's perusal. Don't play 'em, just keep 'em in a box and feel good about that bloke that shows interest in one of 'em. Copy the feckers, play em and stop giving it the big machismo angle. Make sense? I honestly don't believe there's an argument against that,

Serial rapist don't you know - I think he's still banged up?

Fucker.

I'm not knocking promoters, I am one and I'm certainly not being negative - just pointing out the pit-falls and bringing about healthy scene-based pontifications. My point about the use of the word 'Re-union' as opposed the use of the word 'Revival' simply tells me a great deal about the person behind the use of each. I still do love Malc on the basis of the above. Next!

Don't forget your capitals and there are two 's' in 'discuss' son. Other than that your bang on.

Get this! Yorkshire folk and it's immediate area have always been what I would call begatting of the true meaning of 'Northern Soul'. And I'm a Lancashire lad.

Oh! Sorry did you take barbs as well mate? Now everybody on the board knows you did 'em too. Which kind of brings you down to my level then doesn't it?

Sssshhhhh!

G'night!

Ay! They were Red-caps Malc, give me bit of due mate!

I never got to Wigan that night, all I remember is waking up on a hospital bed in the knack with nowt but me DMs on, then following the drip-feed that I spotted in me arm down to the Glucose bag and spotting me Ma & Da at the bottom of the ward shaking their heads. Then I passed out in RE on Monday.

The owd Cockneys did lean heavily toward the old JB sound at the time.

Speaking of Tuianol, me and the missus worked out that the week she was born I was having 6 'Chewies' pumped out of me stomach in Leigh Infirmary.

Hiya Paul, great to see you on here mate. I give you my wholehearted respect.
