David F Full Interview

How
did
you
get
involved
David?
Well,
I
was a
uniform
inspector
at
Blackburn
and
obviously
when
we
were
on
nights
these
things
were
happening.
And
so
it
was,
it
was
just
a,
how should
we say?
As
regarding
policing
and
the
people
of
Blackburn
it
was
something
which
the
youngsters
enjoyed,
but
the
residents
didn’t
because
there
were
thousands
of
cars
coming
in
to
Blackburn
from
all
over
and
errr
of
course
the
residents
with
the
tooting
of
horns
and
loud
music.
It
was a
disturbance.
I
don’t
say
that
I
don’t
agree
with
the
parties,
but
the
people
that
attended
them
put
themselves
in
danger
because
of
the
situation,
they
were
going
into
mills
where
there
were
electrics
and
all
sorts.
I
know
that
some
were
probably
electricians,
but
it
was
a
danger
to
themselves.
Were
you
involved
from
the
beginning?
What
are your
memories
of
that
whole
process
from
the
start
of
it
right
through
to
these
huge
events?
What
are
your
memories?
Yeah.
Well
mine
was
only
from
the
point
of
view
of
Blackburn
and
obviously
I
wasn’t
always
on
duty
when
they
took
place,
but
I
seem
to
be
on
duty
when
a
lot
took
place.
I
didn’t
have
any
problems
with
it.
I
didn’t
particularly
like
the
music
because
I
was
brought
up
in
the
60s.
But
it
seemed
to
be
just
one
beat
boom
boom
boom
all
the
time.
And
in
fact,
I
walked
through
one
or
two
of
the
parties
that
went
on,
which
you
can
imagine,
I
was
in
full
uniform
and
I
wandered
through,
and
I
was,
actually
I
wasn’t
shouted
at.
It
was,
people
were
having
a
happy
time,
but
I
know
I’ve
spoken
to
one
or
two
since
abd,
it
was
all
about
drugs.
…
Well
I mean
in
the
60s,
purple
hearts
and
things
like
this
were,
it
was
just
the
society
at
that
time,
…
…
everybody
experimented
I
suppose.
But
my
own
personal
opinion
was
that
there
was
some
enjoyment
from
the
people
that
went,
but
there
was
a
lot
of
parents
who
didn’t
know
their
kids
were
borrowing
their
cars
and
they
were
coming
in
here
and…
I
can
remember
on
one
occasion
Whitebirk
Drive
…
there’s
a
dual
carriageway
and
there
were
cars
on
either
side
going
the
same
way.
And
I’m
not
talking
about
just
one
or
two
cars.
They
were
four
and
five
abreast
going
up
the
dual
carriageway
to a
venue
which
unfortunately
for
them
I’d
found
and
took
all
the
equipment
out.
That was
on,
off
Phillips
Road.
But
it
was,
it
was
just
from
the
policing
point
of
view,
it
was
a
nightmare
because
there
were
so
many
people.
I
knew
what
was
going
on
because
there were
one
or two
people
that
were
whispering
to
me
about
where
they
were
going.
…
But
there was
decoy
cars
going
this
way,
and
decoy
cars
going
that
way
to
take
the
Police
away
and
I
believe,
I
believe
and
I
can’t
prove
this
that
somebody
rang
the
Police
Station
up
and
said
there’s
a
big
fight
in
Blackburn
centre.
So
all
the
Police
cars
that were
following
were
diverted
into
Blackburn
as
a
result
of
a,
should
we
say
a
0
call.
What
was
the
personal
experiences
of it?
What
was
the
direction
though
for
you
at
work?
What
was
the,
what
was
the
official
approach
to
the
parties?
It
was
to
find
out
with,
where
they
were
and
stop
them,
because
as
I
say
the,
the
dangers
that
the
people
that
were
attending
them
they
just
didn’t
seem
to
realize.
But
an
old
mill
as
I
say,
that
there
are
all
sorts
of
dangers.
So
not
only
were
we
be
bothered
about
the
people
of
Blackburn.
We
were
bothered
about
the
welfare
of
the
people
who
coming
to
the
parties.
So
it
was
a
double
edged
sword
really.
One
we’d
got
to
police
it
and
another
we’d
got
to
be
mindful
of
the
people
that
were
attending
it
and
the
damage
that
they
could
cause to
themselves.
What numbers?
Thousands,
thousands.
The
venue’s
weren’t,
weren’t
such
that
you
could
get
thousands
in
…
But
as
I
say,
…
the
number
of
people
that
came
in
from
all
over
the
place
because
we
stopped
cars
and
they
were
…
…
from
all
over.
Their
parents
cars
and
their
own
cars.
There
was
thousands.
Y’know
but
it
was,
it
was
like
a
Saturday
afternoon
at
times
in
Blackburn
because
there
were
cars
coming
from
all
over
and
we’re
stopping
and
saying
well,
where
is
the
venue,
you
know,
where
is
it?
How
can
we
get
there?
And
yeah,
it
wasn’t
it
wasn’t
bad
and
I
think.
So
the
drugs
problem
at
that
time
was
such
that
everybody
well
not
everybody
…
that’s
wrong
but
there
were
quite
a
lot
involved
with
selling
drugs
and
one thing
and
another
to
the
people
that
were
going.
And
it,
only
in
the
last
two
weeks,
I’ve
spoke
to
people.
I
went
to
a
function
…
that
were
attending
these
and
they
said
0.95
of
it
was
drugs
because
you
went
into
a
venue
and
then
people
were
drinking
lemonade
a
Coca-Cola.
There
was
no
beer
at
all.
So,
you
know,
it
was
just,
it
was
an,
it
was a
nightmare
to
Police
really.
Bad incidents?
No,
not
not
not
bad
incidents,
but
they
were
just
incidents
that
from
the
point
of
view
of
numbers.
It
was
a
nightmare
to
Police
the
areas
that
we
thought
they
were
going
on,
you
know.
But
it
was
it
was
all
night,
you
know,
it
wasn’t
just
so
the
the
policing
of
an
area
i.e
Blackburn,
went
by
the
board
really
the
wasn’t
the
manpower
to
deal
with
both
sets
of
situations,
you
know,
the
police
and,
and
these
parties.
And
what
did
you
do
after?
You
stay
in the
Police
after
the
parties
..
..
Did
it
just,
did it
seem
from
the
Police’s point
of
view
to
just
stop
overnight?
…
It
did,
it
did.
It
seemed
to
stop,
I
know
there were
parties
in
other
areas,
Manchester,
but
in
East
Lancashire
it
seemed
to
just
die
suddenly
and
we
never
knew
the
reason
why.
You
know,
perhaps
it
was
the
fad
of
the
time.
But
it,
after
that
it
just
seemed
to
die
a
death
really.
And you stayed
in the Police
Force after?
Yeah,
I
did.
I
retired
in
91,
so
I
didn’t,
mine
was
a
small
part,
a
small
part.
And
it
was
only
local
but
I
know
that
there
were
parties
up
and
down
the
country
and
some
of
the
clubs
I
never
actually
went
to
them
or
I’ve
never
been
to
them
since
you
know,
but
I
have
attended
a
rave
in Teneriffe.
As
part
of
the
history
of
the
town
the
social

town.
Yeah,
What

you

one
thing
to
a
kid
or a
Police Officer
in
the
future

this
town,
what
would
you
say?
Enjoy
yourself.
Enjoy
yourself.
It’s
society,
things
go
on
in
the
60s
70s
80s
and
everywhere
in
a
hundred
years
time
might
be

But
I

and
to
me
you’ll
never

music
Gilly will
probably
disagree

And
of
course
we
met
because,
through
my
son
…
and
we
call
it
the
Friday
pint
club.
And
then
we
got
talking
and
he
realised
who
I
was.
I
didn’t
know
who Gilly
was,
but
we
got
talking
and
we
just
discuss
it
openly
now.
It’s
a
strange thing,
30
years,
it’s
classed
as

take
the
Police
away
and
I
believe,
I
believe
and
I
can’t
prove
this
that
somebody
rang
the
Police
Station
up
and
said
there’s
a
big
fight
in
Blackburn
centre.
So
all
the
Police
cars
that were
following
were
diverted
into
Blackburn
as
a
result
of
a,
should
we
say
a
0
call.
What
was
the
personal
experiences
of it?
What
was
the
direction
though
for
you
at
work?
What
was
the,
what
was
the
official
approach
to
the
parties?
It
was
to
find
out
with,
where
they
were
and
stop
them,
because
as
I
say
the,
the
dangers
that
the
people
that
were
attending
them
they
just
didn’t
seem
to
realize.
But
an
old
mill
as
I
say,
that
there
are
all
sorts
of
dangers.
So
not
only
were
we
be
bothered
about
the
people
of
Blackburn.
We
were
bothered
about
the
welfare
of
the
people
who
coming
to
the
parties.
So
it
was
a
double
edged
sword
really.
One
we’d
got
to
police
it
and
another
we’d
got
to
be
mindful
of
the
people
that
were
attending
it
and
the
damage
that
they
could
cause to
themselves.
What numbers?
Thousands,
thousands.
The
venue’s
weren’t,
weren’t
such
that
you
could
get
thousands
in
…
But
as
I
say,
…
the
number
of
people
that
came
in
from
all
over
the
place
because
we
stopped
cars
and
they
were
…
…
from
all
over.
Their
parents
cars
and
their
own
cars.
There
was
thousands.
Y’know
but
it
was,
it
was
like
a
Saturday
afternoon
at
times
in
Blackburn
because
there
were
cars
coming
from
all
over
and
we’re
stopping
and
saying
well,
where
is
the
venue,
you
know,
where
is
it?
How
can
we
get
there?
And
yeah,
it
wasn’t
it
wasn’t
bad
and
I
think.
So
the
drugs
problem
at
that
time
was
such
that
everybody
well
not
everybody
…
that’s
wrong
but
there
were
quite
a
lot
involved
with
selling
drugs
and
one thing
and
another
to
the
people
that
were
going.
And
it,
only
in
the
last
two
weeks,
I’ve
spoke
to
people.
I
went
to
a
function
…
that
were
attending
these
and
they
said
0.95
of
it
was
drugs
because
you
went
into
a
venue
and
then
people
were
drinking
lemonade
a
Coca-Cola.
There
was
no
beer
at
all.
So,
you
know,
it
was
just,
it
was
an,
it
was a
nightmare
to
Police
really.
Bad incidents?
No,
not
not
not
bad
incidents,
but
they
were
just
incidents
that
from
the
point
of
view
of
numbers.
It
was
a
nightmare
to
Police
the
areas
that
we
thought
they
were
going
on,
you
know.
But
it
was
it
was
all
night,
you
know,
it
wasn’t
just
so
the
the
policing
of
an
area
i.e
Blackburn,
went
by
the
board
really
the
wasn’t
the
manpower
to
deal
with
both
sets
of
situations,
you
know,
the
police
and,
and
these
parties.
And
what
did
you
do
after?
You
stay
in the
Police
after
the
parties
..
..
Did
it
just,
did it
seem
from
the
Police’s point
of
view
to
just
stop
overnight?
…
It
did,
it
did.
It
seemed
to
stop,
I
know
there were
parties
in
other
areas,
Manchester,
but
in
East
Lancashire
it
seemed
to
just
die
suddenly
and
we
never
knew
the
reason
why.
You
know,
perhaps
it
was
the
fad
of
the
time.
But
it,
after
that
it
just
seemed
to
die
a
death
really.
And you stayed
in the Police
Force after?
Yeah,
I
did.
I
retired
in
91,
so
I
didn’t,
mine
was
a
small
part,
a
small
part.
And
it
was
only
local
but
I
know
that
there
were
parties
up
and
down
the
country
and
some
of
the
clubs
I
never
actually
went
to
them
or
I’ve
never
been
to
them
since
you
know,
but
I
have
attended
a
rave
in Teneriffe.
As
part
of
the
history
of
the
town
the
social
history
of
the
town.
Yeah,
What
would
you
say
…
…
…
…
…
if
you
could
say
one
thing
to
a
kid
or a
Police Officer
in
the
future
researching
this
town,
what
would
you
say?
Enjoy
yourself.
Enjoy
yourself.
It’s
society,
things
go
on
in
the
60s
70s
80s
and
everywhere
in
a
hundred
years
time
might
be
different
music.
But
I
lived
in
the
era
of
the
60s
and
to
me
you’ll
never
beat
that
music
Gilly will
probably
disagree
with
me
entirely.
And
of
course
we
met
because,
through
my
son
…
and
we
call
it
the
Friday
pint
club.
And
then
we
got
talking
and
he
realised
who
I
was.
I
didn’t
know
who Gilly
was,
but
we
got
talking
and
we
just
discuss
it
openly
now.
It’s
a
strange thing,
30
years,
it’s
classed
as
heritage now.
Yeah,
I’m
only
26
now.

My
first
memories
was
a
shop
on
Devenport
Road.
That
was
the
first
thing
I
ever
turned
up
at
and
I
don’t
know
how
we
got
wer’
shop or
how
we
got
wer’
venue,
but
it
was
actually
the
very
first
time
I
ever
went
to
what
you
would
class
as
an
Acid
House
party
and
there
may
have
been
30
or
40
people
there
and
it
was
a
large
amount
of
fun.
They
all
started
very
…in
small
gaffs.
Another
one
that
stands
out
right
in
the
beginning
was
the
Bubble
Factory.
Yeah.
Well
the
Bubble
Factory
was
fantastic.
It
was
when
I
started
to
think.
Oh,
we’ve
got
something
going
on
here,
you
know
because
you
didn’t
know
whether
the
first
one
was
just
going
to
be
that
or..
what
it
was.
It
was
the
first
time
that
I
realised
that
people
were
very
much
together
would
will
call
him
tree-huggers.
I
remember
f***ing
going
up
wer’
Cav.
You
never
met
with
many
smiles
and
you
were
met
with
a
lot
of
people
who
were
horrible
and
I
remember
the
Bubble
Factory
everybody
cuddled
each
other.
I
remember
police
turning
up
an’
they
weren’t
happy,
but
we
didn’t
stop
and
we
didn’t
leave
and
that
was
the…
the
first
one
where
I
thought
wow,
you
know
this
this
is
something
that
I
want
to
be
involved
in.
So
my
initial
involvement
when
the
party
started
was
when
we
were…
when
we
had
the
Sett
End
I
would
lead
the
convoy
to
the
party.
I
would…
I
had
a
black
3 litre
Capri
at
the
time
and
everybody
got
to
know
the
black
3 litre
Capri
And
we would
head
off
from…
from
The
Sett
End
into
various
places
wherever
there
were…
Another
great
party
was…
and
this
sticks
in
the
and this
was
the
one
at
the
bottom
of
Philips
Road
was
it?
Northgate?
Or
..
North…
North
Road
building
the
North
Road
building.
I
remember
the
police
had
stopped…
a car
or
van
with
the
records
in…
and
met
in
Tony
went
and
found
some
records..
went
back
up.
The
Sett
End
got
a
box
of
records
and
I
remember
running
down
the
railway
track
and
climbing
through
a
window
into
the
North
Road
building.
Where…
another
big
memory
is
that
the
police
had
managed
to
turn
the
electric
off
for
that
one.
And
they
thought
it
was
a
great
success
of
doing
so
and
plugged
into
the
next
door’s
electric
and
kicked
it
back
up
again.
That’s
that’s
another
one
that’s
stuck
in
me
head.
That
wasn’t
really
right
at
the
beginning
but
it’s
one
of
the
ones
that
sticks
in
me’
head
because
it
might
not
have
happened
and
it
did
happen.
Well
the
most
memorable
up side
…
it
was
that
people
who
you’d
consider
not
to
be
friendly
became
tree
huggers.
They
would
all
cuddle
each
other.
They
were
all
happy
it
was
not
a
sign
of
any
violence
and
when
Dave
and
John
got
involved
it
was
John
who
actually
got
with
into
The
Sett
End
We
were
looking
for
a
home
to
base
ourselves
at
…
and
John
knew
the
landlord…
and
the
landlord
was
an
English
guy
called
Billy
and
Billy
was
up
for
it.
Billy
was
a
hungry
little
bastard.
He
was
more
interested
in
money
than
the
music
in
the
doin’
but
between
the
2
of
them
was
why
we
managed
to
get
The
Sett
End
in
The
Sett
End
went
on
for
4
years
and
it
was
great
on
a
Saturday.
Everyone
would
congregate

everyone

One
of
the
downsides
was
various
Blackburn
gangsters
thought
they’d
had
they
nose
pushed
out.
So
they
decided
they
would
start
their
version
of
Blackburn
parties.
So
their
got
warehouses

kicked
up
parties,

they
didn’t
have
the

…
we
had
they
didn’t
have

when

they

very

they
were

they

full

money
by
charging
them
a tenner

When

eventually
decided
they
were
going
to
stop
the
parties
cos’
for
the
first
2
years
whatever
long
wi’
got
away
with
it
the
police
just
acted
as
car
park
attendants.
And
one
of
the
policemen
I
used
to
interact
with
was
a
lovely
fellow
and
used
to
say…
I
don’t
mind
yourself
in
these
parties
I’m
on
over
time
and
I’m
putting
me’
son
through
college
for
doing
so..
a proud
man.
He
was
a
gentleman
and
a
scholar
he
was.
And
it
wasn’t
all
bad
with
the
police.
It
was
if
you
was…
the
party
we
had.
On
the
cattle
market
he
was
there
then
and
he
was
he
was
a
gentleman.
I
used
to
be…
not
the
spokesman
for
but
I
used
to
go
out
and
interact
and
see
how
they
were
and
they’d
…
ask
how
things
were
going…
It
was
sort
of
that
arrangement.
They
never
actually
stormed
any
of
the
parties
in
them
days
did they?
But
when
they
eventually
decided
they
were
going
to
stop
them.
The
one
that
I
do
remember
was
Mullards
top
of
Phillips
Road
Yeah.
They
had
the
had
the
riot
squad
out
and
once
they
decided
they
were
gonna
stop
them
they
quickly
got
on
top
of
it
all
but
I
do
remember
a
police
car
screeching
to
a
halt
near’we…
the
policeman
jumped
out…
the
police
car
…
…
and
try
to
stop
the
crowd…
the
Manc’s.
It
was
they..
tipped
the
car
on
its
roof.
Somebody
pulled
the
petrol
pipe
off
and
somebody
set
the
car
a light
so
the
car
was
a
light
in
the
middle
of
the
road
and
there was
people
stood
on
it
cheering
and
clapping
n’
all
but
somebody
had
gone
through
the
glove
box
of
the
police
found
the
camera
that
they
always
carry…
one
of
these
Manc’s.
was
taking
photographs
with
the
police
camera
of
people
stood
on
the
top
it.
One
of
the
funniest
things
about
it…
wasn’t
funny
for
him.
But
he
was
in
the
lane
an’
police
were
coming
towards
wer’
banging
shields
with
truncheons
and
screamin’
and
him
ballin’
and
it
was
all…
they
just
didn’t
run
toward
you
they
just
walked
towards
ya
in a slow
manner
banging
they
shields
and
as
they
got
up
to
where
he
was…he
fell
down
and
the
police
line
walked
over
the
top,
then
one
of
them
bashed
him
on
the
head
with
a
with
the
truncheon
and
went
your
nicked
mate…
he
ended
up
getting
6
months
for
rioting
and affray
and
all
that.
He
was
about
the
only
one
that
got
nicked
