Friday the 17th of May 2013 saw the BBC Radio Manchester Soul Night out at Courtney's Lounge Manchester,. Many thanks to you if you were there. We do hope you enjoyed the night.

Let the celebrations begin.

And so as we head for the depths of winter it is probably time to accept that our awesome summer of 2012 has come to an end. And that realization means we come to the final part (3) of The Summer That Rocked.

Well it is almost impossible to guess when the summer of 2012 started for me but boy what a summer it has been. To be honest I don't think it could have been any better for me personally.

Welcome to part 2 of the Big Ticket my continuing look back at two of the greatest nights in Basketball in the City of Manchester. The USA Teams both Men and Women are on the way to the 2012 Olympics where they are expected to claim Gold but before that they brought their awesome talents to the Manchester Arena.
