I've become intrigued by the Northern Soul scene in the 70s and 80s. Especially Wigan. Wondered if anyone was active in the all-nighters back in the day, or are still dancing? I'm so interested in all this that I'm working on a virtual pinball table based on Wigan Casino.

Red_Devils I was planning two ramps to a second level balcony. Where was Mr. M's in relation to the balcony? Can't find info on it.

Great info. Need to make some changes to the PF. Thanks.

Well, I'm not so sure I have the floor plan right. Was Mr. M's on the same floor as the main hall to the left near the lobby or to the left near the stage? I think I read your description wrong thinking Mr. M's on the balcony level. .

Sorry to plug you for info, but I'd like this to be as accurate as possible. Were there names for dance moves? I've heard a couple mentioned in videos on YT like Shuffle, Stomp and Drop Back. One of the goals is to "learn" to dance and collect 45s and badges along the way. My WIP images are attached. The black horseshoe will become the balcony, so you're playing in the position of a DJ.

If you're willing, I'd like you to review my track list. About 32 songs. They should all be familiar.

Some of these are just personal favorites, with *.
I get a sense that there were certain songs that were specific to Wigan, Blackpool, Mr. M's vs Main, etc. I may have mixed them up.

Bunny Sigler, The Contours, and Darrell Banks got two entries...Maybe only Sigler really deserves it.

I hadn't seen the BBC program. Thanks for the link.

Both of the loop shots lead to the balcony level, so if I make the left loop "Mr. M's" then it will kick the ball upstairs and down the right side to the right inlane (white arrow). Now what to do with those inlanes...
