I cant remember how old I was on my first visit to the casino,14 or 15.either way i was still at school I went with a friend I got in  he did not. I remember that first time like yesterday looking down from the balcony and seeing everyone dancing even on that first euphoric night I only managed to stay awake till 4ish. The magic of that first night was like a drug i wanted more. soon I started going every week and really had the best mates you could wish for Proper,  they would help me out and vice versa. The times i had in m's dancing and chatting with my mates were fantastic as soon as m's opened we were there. I openly admit i took large amounts of amphetamines in my opinion you needed something to dance and talk all night. I didn't want to miss anything I spoke to one or two people who never took a thing but they were asleep by 2.30, you did get the odd freak who could dance all night on stale air and coffee my opinion what is the point. I remember being upstairs and obviously rushing on something thinking I'm  so happy I don't care if it all ends and i die tomorrow. I  knew some great dancers who were my mates, at the time we all hung out together I must admit i was probably the worst dancer out of our group but hey if you know anything about Wigan and the crew from Wolverhampton they could all dance well, They had the Gethro influence and lets be serious he was the best without a doubt and my dear best mate Dave Fisher from Chesterfield was absolutely tops and a top bloke sadly he died, After being dumped in a field after after taking a overdose of drugs  a true soul brother. No one deserves to die like that  I had some absolutely top nights with a man Sam from Kidderminster what a friend. I used to get rite pissed off if he did not turn up same again dancing and chatting and more importantly having a laugh  was the main agenda. Nothing lasts forever and 78-79,things started getting worse at Wigan casino the old faces were going less frequently, Sam had stopped going the place was getting packed with proper divs off there nut on a chalkey's and some pretend blues, but looking as if they had had  ten brown and clears, then falling about in the morning all barbed up, I had the sense to wait till i got home are at least away from the casino to take my downers if I needed any. The last evening was there, a hen party turned up  during the night, I asked the party what the fuck are you lot doing here, There reply "well we just wanted to come so we can say we have been to the casino, The end was nigh Everybody has there stories of Wigan casino, But some that i have read from people i vaguely knew  they always seem to exaggerate what is the point wankers. What I write is the truth I was lucky to be blessed with friends that are true soul brothers and also had some of the best gear, what a mix for a top night. I want to go back do you? Right on
