Alright Gents :wave:

Who are the funky truckers? Can you give us a biog or something?

Used to go out in Brum all the time in the early mid 90's. Are Hollis and Jarman still around?!

Cheers
Ed

Wobble? Crunch? SLAG? Marco Polo's etc.......? :king: :love: :thumbsup: :D ker-wality!! Early-Mid 90's clubbing in Brum was great :thumbsup:
those were the days. Probably wobbled past eachother at some point then mate :D Are / were you originally from Brum then?
I think Mark played at a Crazy Daisys doo (another blast from the past name :D ) last year, dont know if he's still kicking around Brum or not. Thought I heard Jon wasnt DJing anymore but dont quote me on that, might be wrong :confused:

There were a few Wobble reunion nights sorted a couple of years ago in Tamworth & Birmingham by peeps I know, along with Phil Gifford , and with some of the old lot playingeg: Si Long, Jem Atkins, the Loveley Helen etc.. . Each event - absolutely tore the roof off! :love: If they happen to do another one can let you know, no problem, but havent heard anything for a while :(

Yeah, Crunch, Wobble, SLAG, Marco's, was a regular 92-95, especially at Crunch. I was a Birmingham University not studying much! Orginally from Warrington, but did more clubbing in Brum than anywhere else.

Crying shame if Jon has hung his headphones up, he was brilliant.

Would definitely be up for a wobble re-union! :thumbsup:

Is the tape box silver, a double. Think it was Mark Jarman and Danny Techini?


If not I have a later one. I remember the event, but not sure if I went to it.
