You reached the footer of the default page so maybe it's got you
interested. Or where you taking a trip back down memory lane. As you
attended Wigan casino and just had to look back in time. Either
makes no difference really just nice you found it interesting enough
to get this far. There is still a active northern soul scene in the
UK. Not everything is anywhere near the kind of description I
describe on this website. The time allnighters took place at Wigan
casino the UK was nothing like the place it is now. For a start
hitching up the M6 motorway was perfectly safe plenty of teenagers
boy's + girl's did it. Without any kind of problem's I never heard
of any at the time anyway. I would'nt advise any 15 year old girl or
boy to do the things I did it would be far to dangerous. Even at 50
I would'nt either to tell you the truth. Please feel free to browse
the site it's totally free you did'nt have to have gone to Wigan
casino to use the site it's not my ambition to make money from this
site. Northern soul as never been about making money out of it. Look
at some of the books that are published and the TV profile of it
"this England". It certainly was'nt made to reflect the members of
Wigan casino was it. There will always be somebody who will see
money to be made out of northern soul. But not the people who are
involved in it most of the crap made. Was produced with the
intention of fast money to be made out of the UK scene. It's called
business if your not a active member of the UK northern scene the
opportunity to make money must be very appealing. So make a product
with the emphasis on getting other people not involved to pay to
watch it. So it's made by people with no involvement. For a audience
also not with any idea, of the ways northern soul allnighters
operate. Then we wonder why the films are nothing like reality but
are such rubbish. The books written by members are also written with
making money in mind there cannot be any other reason for it. Wait
for Gethro's book that is my advice as the item's so far just have
nothing. That is anything like the real Wigan casino it did'nt have
any restrictive barriers that a society fuelled by jealous greed.
Imposes on it's inhabitants to make it a place where you have
restrictions by the amount you have. It was'nt important if
you had 6 million or 6p the way you appeared on the dance floor and
the sort of person you where was more than adequate to be a top
face. I myself would advise people who did not attend the casino
allnighter. Don't
believe everything your told as from experience. Most of it is utter
rubbish either could'nt or would'nt of happened there. But I'm lucky
enough to have been there and know the difference but some people don't.
I would not recommend buying any of the books published so far
either on the member's side of it. The only book I read was by Russ
Winstanley I found it was a great read. But was from the DJ's view
of it a local man who it did'nt take most of Sunday to get home.
Visit the casino website to find a lot more about Russ. Events now
and a list of interesting northern soul things for anybody with
interest in it.
