I were
DJ-ing
in

a bit
of a
following
and we
all
became

and
one
of me
close
friends
a
lad
call
Simon
Duxbury
and
some
of
me
other
mates
they
decided
they
were
going
to
like
they’re
going
to
take
it
a
stage
further.
So
we’re
going
to
find
our
own
little
night
…
spot.
So
I’d been
and
approached
Monroe’s
Simon

that’s
where
Joe
came
in then.
We’ve
got
the
sound
system
down

only
a
few
from
Blackburn.
We

were
no
mobile
phones
then

were
all
like
word
of
mouth
an’
an
odd
telephone
call
from
from
the
telephone
box
around
the
corner
and
everyone
came
together
and
from
there
it started
on
Thursday
nights
and
then
it
came
to
a
Friday
night
and
Friday
then
it
moved
to
a
Saturday
and

another
another

well
for
me
personally
being
involved
with
my
friends
and
