    For those of you into a bit of Northern Soul
    http://www.thehelix.ie/03_02_2004_wigan.html

    I've copied a small bit from that link:

    Wigan Casino, the heart of soul, the finest place in all the world. From 1973-1981 the weekly all nighters - 8 saturated hours of pure beauty, pure rhythm-pure soul! 60's &70's masterpieces belted out in an old music hall,mixed with sweat, adrenalin, talcum powder and any other assistance the devoted northern soul dancer could summon up to keep him or her whirling around the floor for hours on end...

    Ticket holders will get free admission to The Soul Space,The Helix 's very own soul club playing the very best in Northern Souleach night before and after the performances.

    Taken from the above link:
    Bathed in wit and pathos but most of all priceless modern classics, the show charts the birth of modern all night rave and dance culture, the death of old industries, the old certainties, and in the end the death of Wigan Casino itself.

    I'll definitely be there.
