mick2me 3,033 Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Around 1969, I used to go to a disco at the Union Stewards Pub in St Anns. There was a guy wo ran mobile discos that did it He was quite old probably in his 60's then. He was not the DJ just the owner. He had a shock of Grey hair and a grey handlebar moustache? Perhaps Craig will know him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mick2me 3,033 Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Did anyone else go to The 'Union Stewards' Disco around late 60s. Anyone got a map that shows the area? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OLDACE 196 Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I used to occassionly go to the Union Stewards Club around 69-71. I usually went a couple of pints late on. I can't remember the DJ you mention, but it was a long time ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,733 Posted December 21, 2015 Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 Sounds like it might have been George Pickard. He described himself as a 'freelance welder', but was also a demonstration trampolinist and had an interest in Discos. He once asked me to work for him but I was busy with the 360 Club stuff.

mick2me 3,033 Posted December 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 See if you wait long enough you will get an answer 7 1/2 years Thanks Col Could be but I never knew a name, I can still recall his face. Do you know any more about him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DJ360 6,733 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 Not really. I do remember seeing him once somewhere like Wollaton Park doing a trampolining demo. Also saw him doing some steelwork for alterations to what I think was the old Empire Theatre around late 60's. Difficult to miss him really. Definitely a bit of a character. I'll try to remember to ask Dave Pickering if he knows any more. Col Quote Link to post Share on other sites
