This feels like the right place to share this tribute.
Because you’re all music fans, you’ll understand. About 10 years ago, Mike and I first went to the famous Smiths Disco at the Star and Garter in Manchester. For those of you who have not visited, it’s a rundown Victorian pub that stands out like a sore thumb in what used to be the derelict area beside the Piccadilly Station tracks. It’s where Brassic is filmed, it housed the legendary Smile night, and of course the annual Mozarmy meet.
Apart from meeting the loveliest and most welcoming Smiths fans on the dancefloor, two of the staff members became my firm friends.

Andy Martin, licensee, promoter, manager, long-term campaigner and die-hard Half Man, Half Biscuit devotee sadly passed away suddenly last week, aged 52. Our thoughts go to his wife and 2 young girls, and all of the S&G family.

Andy was a true champion of the independent music scene. He fought tirelessly against the buy-out of the S&G and its almost certain destruction in the Mayfield makeover. He went to court against Network Rail and government bigwigs and won. Over the years, Andy saw the cash flow decrease to the point that the pub was running hand to mouth; one night’s takings to fund the next night’s stock. He ploughed everything in him to keep the venue open. During Covid, the pub received a grant, and then last year, a crippling £27000 tax bill because the grant apparently constituted ‘earnings’. And still the pub remained open. He was completely devoted to it. A true hero of the independent music scene. In a world full of capitalists and fat cats, it’s people like Andy that mean we can still go and see alternative bands.

Here’s a picture I took of Andy (right), Jane Horrocks, and the lovely Gaz, at the last Smiths night I went to.

Thank you so much to everyone that braved the rain last night and came to the Phoenix. We had an absolute BLAST and hope you did too. One of my favourite nights so far.
A few mentions:
Well done to Tom for dancing right until the very end. Those Sambas took a beating. 🕺
Happy birthday to Chicago Pete - when are you coming out of retirement for a special appearance? 🎂
Special pub-goers award goes to Nic and Spider, for being the absolute last ones left, making use of every minute of pub time 🍺
And the DJ 3-way (that’s the way we like it) making me laugh all night. 🎧 🎧 🎧

Wooooo!

Wooooo!

The Wedding Present have had eighteen UK Top 40 hit singles, not bad for a band that has stubbornly refused to play the record industry’s game.

Big tune special last night! Thanks to everyone who came, what a celebration 🎉 🎄 🪩
And the next night for your diary is….
JANUARY payday, Friday 26th. Make sure you start dry Jan a few days early, ready to emerge from your cocoon of January blues for Disco 2000 (and twenty four 😩). Thanks for your continued support and have a peaceful and safe Christmas, from Wayne, Mike and Marie xx
