Interesting that - I always knew it as the Ardwick Hippodrome. Lived in Longsight and every Christmas my family took me to the pantomime -late 40's early 50's. or alternately to the Circus at Belle Vue on Boxing Day.
In those days the Apollo was an ABC cinema seating about 2,000. - as big as the Odeon on Oxford Street. Happy days.

Aah the Hulme Hippodrome - I used to go there on Tuesday nights in the 60's to watch them record Pop North with Dave Lee Travis as the compere in his 30's gangster suit and in his 30's gangster car

I remember The Move throwing electric bananas into the audience - vibrators LOL

Great music and the great Mercer/Allison City team - Brilliant times

Fucking hell that car needs a good clean!

A good clean and a good replacement. Looks like K9's grandmother.

Those trees alone will make such an impact around those parts....such a good decision to base this academy in the local area, when others hide away in the country offering nothing to the Cities/urban areas they have their grounds in.

@Dawlish Dave - no need to apologise about straying off topic...this is the most freeform jazz thread on these boards...
