Hippos in Middleton was my cathedral of choice.

Didn’t bother watching it. It'd be the sort of thing that'd, er, twist my melon man. Loads of kids with soppy, floppy haircuts, thinking that they looked the business. Watched MOTD instead. Much more enjoyable.

Nah. But thanks, anyway. As I said before, I never really got into that whole "Madchester" scene. I'm more a child of the 70s.

Good contributions mate, enjoyed it. I’m assuming they interviewed a few, so you did well to make so much of the final cut (unless you’re married to one of the producers ;-)

Great overall, bringing back memories etc, though as I expected I would, I wanted more than just 1 hour - and more of the tunes (and less TOTP footage!)

I thought you were Dave Haslam!

Yeah had a few good nights in there.
Mick Hucknall owned it i think.

I work in that building now. Makes me smile every time I go in thinking about those days. Buck all was there a lot I know that. Konspiracy was edgy, but the Hac at its height was all something else.
