Been looking for this for an age Son. Days of Special Brew. Happy ones. Shaun's spliff is filth btw
haha... remember this clear as day when broadcast. Theres a completely mad extended version of Wrote for Luck at the end of this too.
No wonder he didnt get another series.
I've got that episode on a DVD R - that's the one that was filmed at Victoria Baths - Gerald performs Voodoo Ray later on...
Top episode! :)
Thanks!You know, when I first saw the thread title I thought, Wow, someone actually remembered Tony Fookin' Wilson today...
I thought about Tony Wilson a lot over the weekend, of course, as I was at the same festival as I was last year when I heard the terrible news.
He was a bit of a cunt, but I liked him a lot.
you pissed Col, that all sounds a bit longwinded & gay for a bloke, fuckin help you when hooky pops it
Got that all as AVI somewhere's
Ahhhhh the days when "dance" audiences still had the patience for live performance.
Don't ever recall P:Machinery being used on the NightTIme idents, and I wouldn't have thought there would be any regional variation.
I'm so glad I met Tony, shook his hand and thanked him for everything, before he left us.
Where was that, Steve?
I actually moved my long girly post to my blog, in case anyone's interested.
I've never had a blog before. I quite like it.

At the box office/ticket desk in the Apollo '05 while sitting turning fucking green and missing NO. Meeting the man, made up for missing the band. Poor chap looked TERRIFIED as I approached until he realised I wasn't about to launch into a "why you're a useless cunt Wilson" speech, at which point he beamed, and was all Wilson charm.
Blogging gives you testicular cancer BTW.

Where is your girly post blog, Colin? I'd be quite interested to read your thoughts on Tony.
BBC Radio Manchester had a Wilson tribute this Saturday, details below:
Hopefully we've all made a difference somehow over the past year to Manchester, the music scene and in the search for a cure for cancer. Little steps go a long way.
Check the show out below that was broadcast on Manchester Music by your genial hosts Natalie-Eve and Michelle... the show must go on.
