    This is what it,s about , dancing listening loving the music , i used to go to Soul allnighters and alldayers, too young to be part of the Wigan , Torch , Twisted Wheel scene.
    Never did i see any violence, everyone went for the music and atmosphere, marvellous memories , never to be forgotten.
