Ive just been informed of some of the issues regarding the weekender, i think im ok in saying people have,nt anything to worry about and the Weekender will still be the highlight of mine and many other soulies year...

The only place you would find me on a Sun is either fishing a competition or watchin RL Leigh Centurions, might do the odd bank hol alldayer after tea Blimey there are enough do,s on Fri / Sat without promo, in Sundays it will only breed more DJ,s

Blimey whats all that about............. Dave Evison one of the nicest blokes you could hope to meet ive known him since 72 and believe me i saw Dave down at the Torch regularly also at Blackpools Highland Room ect ect ect.. With regards to Charity the lads who have run the Torch Reunion for the past few years have done ONE HELL OF A JOB providing funds for local charitys Malc, Paul Jez deserve the upmost RESPECT for the time and effort they have put in in helping others less fortunate than most of us..Dave Evison is a good bloke who has more than paid his dues on the Northern scene and deserves Respect not the ramblings of you Swish who seems to have either had zillion pints or worse RESPECT WHERE RESPECTS DUE.MY FRIEND.. LOVE, PEACE & HAPPINESS ALWAYS.... Ian Cunliffe

Walk up to the gate with a mop and bucket mumble something in east europian to the security and say cleaner and hey presto you will be in in no time

You can see through the ones with the date stamp on as well ...they where done by Dave S early 90,s very good counterfiets and decent sound quality fooled quite a few well known collecters when they first came out I,m sure Dave is still on here and could fill you all in with the details of how many he made i think around 200 he did them same time as the B Sheen demo

Great stuff Andy it just gets better & better !!!

I,ll take ya up on that you posh southern chick wi a Burnley accent

When Flynny sends from Japan it must be with a time machine they arrive faster than the UK post

I was sure it was the same nite as the Torch alldayer i could have sworn we all traveled back early from Tunstall to go to a mates wedding in Higher Folds Leigh before goin on to Farnworth to Troggs Regarding Max nickin the milk float he once nicked a bread delivery van and when he appeared in court the magistrate asked Max why he had took the van Max replied we where just loafin about , it made front page in the Bolton evening news Man who stole van was just loafin about

The nite you are thinking about was the nite the Torch shut if i remember the Torch closed early instead of being a niter it closed around midnite loads of people then made there way to Farnworth to the Troggs niter i was one of the people outside who could,nt get in it was packed outside people just millin around off there heads listenin to cassette players , discotrons ect ect Max from Atherton pinched a milk float among other daft things that where goin down around Farnworth in the early hours, i remember shouting to Bob Hinsley who was inside near the door to get me in but it was a lock out Several of us decieded to walk home the 9 miles to Leigh it was bloody frezzin that i do remember

There ya go Joan me and our James

I could write a book about our dealings with the DS and serious crime squad when we lived in the Bungalow in Lowton circa 73 Mad Days indeed.................................................

A Record that was played out at the Burnley niter if that makes sense, in my opinion the best tunes played out at Burnley where the more uptempo dogs bollocks feet start movin sounds that grapped you onto the dancefloor.................. Then left you staggerin back after a quick 2mins plus of pure dance energy... Well i am nearly 57

Hiya Blake sold most of my 70,s to Steve Connor, Flanny & Co to help them & the modern crowd with their insomnia :lol:
