Some people think that their opinion is more important than another person's opinion. Sometimes some people's opinion deserves to be concidered more important than another person's opinion. Sometimes someone's opinion sounds like it doesn't deserve to be given weight, maybe because they are rude, but that doesn't mean their opinion may not be more valid and more important than another less well informed, if more polite opinion. Sometimes polite and nice people coem across as having better informed more balenced view points, even though they are naive and short sighted.

Debbie, you seem to be a nice girl with a loverly rose tinted outlook on life. I'm a bit envious of that but unfortunately I fear that your outlook is held together in a frame of naivety.

I hope it doesn't, because you seem really nice, but one day the naivety will fall away and you'll become another mean, nasty, opinionated, although better informed, c*nt, just like so many of the posters on this site.

=========

a blokes got to make a living ...he wasnt the only dj to play pop in that era,,,theres lots old djs who dont get anywhere else either

i cant beleive the venom and vitriol against russ on here

hes just a person at the end of the day and i think alot of the jibes on here are just out of order especially when he s not on here to defend himself

Well, thats total rubbish, i can give loads of TRUE examples of what an opportunist, uncaring, souless being he is. Ive been at the end of it. In fact, in the past he has asked Mike to remove 'TRUTH' rather than answer it. He gets other people to i guess? I dont know.

The fact that some people excuse this crap with 'a guys got to make a living' shows how wide the gap truly is between my understanding of 'soul' and theirs. We are just from two different scenes i guess. Im not a part of the smashey nicey, memorabelia, live in the past, get the mug, wear the shirt, play the bootleg, sell my soul scene. If this had happened in the 70s when people still had care and respect for the scene and gave a f--k, there would have been uproar and derision. Now, you want dance lessons...f--king hell!

The funny thing is............None of you have the guts to go up to the dj's playing the records & moan to them about what they play, or to go up to the folk wearing the clothes you dont like & tell them to there face, you just hide behind a keyboard & moan laugh.gif

YES we have. I had the unfortunate event of having to DJ with Binstanley and complained to the organiser about his crap bootlegs and his choice of shit records for a dance competition. He wanted (of course):

Frank Wilson - Do I love You (bootleg obviously:laugh: )

Flirtations - Little Darlin

and some other inane hammered crap on a bootleg.

So, YES, i do say if i see it. I had to stop him bringing a cd player into a post show event to dj from and at the Wigan 30th anniverasy he used almost entirely cds and when i turned up with vinyl he had to link the decks up...

I totally understand what you are saying :thumbup:

Dont get me wrong.....................many years ago i was more aggressive in my way of thinking..................but i never thought it would happen to me...........i had a life threatening illness that changed things & the way i thought............when you think that your going to die & then get another chance at life, you just want to make the most of it & do things better than you did before, so perhaps it is through rose tinted specs :thumbsup:

But now i only see life in a good & positive way, because life is too short! :thumbup

p.s Sorry chaps!...............but men do always think that they are right! :hatsoff2:

There you go, im not that innocent! :thumbsup:

Vilfredo Pareto would probably have something to say about that.

These dance classes are socially unacceptable in the context of what "Northern Soul" means to all the people on this site and the 'scene' in general.

It may be nice and jolly, flowers and bees sweet cakes and sugary tea for the people doing the classes, and in themself, isolated away from the "Northern Soul" scene 'propa', your view point is a fair one.

But I'm afraid the feasibility of these dance classes is reliant on those who live, breath and die "Northern Soul" not being offended, embarrassed, insulted and generally being made worse off by the externalities generated by the dance classes.

This concideration and the way it is policed is and always has been an intrinsic feature of the various elements that make up and authenticates any music scene.

But i would not fancy those dance classes James :no:

Like i said im not that innocent.................i would probably punch the woman :thumbup:

Besides that, even assuming life is "too short", they are just a bit pants, really.

maybe the whole thing here is that people are being too nice

just look at the packaging - a great big f*ck off mod roundel or whatever its called stuck on it

a few years ago this "product" would have been laughed off this site

nowadays people seem to be scared of saying whats what

maybe with stuff like this its not the actual idea but the way that it is carried out that stinks

looks like a dog, smells like a .... etc etc

Is the for real? Please, please say its a hoax?

REMEMBER...... keep repeating the move before speeding it up - keep pausing the DVD until you are confident with the move before moving on. This is particularly relevant to the intermediate DVD's which are quite complicated.

is it real ? because thats why iv emailed her , to find out

i know huddersfield is ACTUALLY REAL cos iv been there on a bus once, but each time i look at the site er , iv never seen owt like it

They are /we are, thats the problem. Cause have you seen what happens when you do?

Thats why (despite our constant butting of heads) you have to have people like Paul S and James on a site like this otherwise it would be just so namby-pamby "after you sir no after you sir" that it wouldn't be worth carrying on. But the straight talkers are exceptions to the rule nowadays I guess.

as with all things there's different ways of doing such

this forum offers what like to think is a decent structure for posting your views across what ever they are

as long as people accept and stick to that structure then it shouldnt be a problem

all imo of course

and on...

problem i see is that people are to quick to blame this site rather than look at themselves

look at some of the issues had in past

this site has f*** all to do with much in the real world

but all too often chumps rather use here as a excuse to cover their own shortcomings

same will happen here

the people behind this dvd wont say "that doesnt seem to have gone well" they will start blaming the site , its members and all the rest for having the cheek to post their views

cold light of day time, if you push out something that people think is sh*te then its not soul source thats the problem its the product!

But, and I know this is extreme, what if I was to slag off this particular dance class thing, and they threatened to sue? I suppose they could do if they thought it was affecting their livelihood?

:thumbup:

Ironically once you've been taught how to dance, she teaches you how to sit in the record bar all night and moan about the music. It's the complete course thumbup.gif

:no:

That really made me laugh!

if talking about posting on here

can't give legal advice as could be leaving myself wide open

structure of this site (way its run. moderated etc ) takes into account the legal responsibilites it has

the terms of use reflect this which is why we ask all members to agree to them before using this site

if talking about in general

am sure there are some suitably qualified members who may be able to give advice

Where can I get me one of those really cool Frank Wilson watches please? :thumbup::no::

There is no end to this tat on sale at any weekender....That's my whole point. The NS scene is totally commercialised, and despite the best efforts of a minority, the "entrepreneurs" have found some increasingly novel ways to make a fast buck out of NS.

As for libel position, as long as not defamatory, people are allowed to express views....

For sale at weekenders :lol: ...

I must have walked past these stalls many times then, never had a look, hard to believe indeed....

If they are for sale then there must be a market :no: ...

I did see some mugs and a clock once on a stall but did not realise that this kind of stuff was there for sale...

I aint offended by this tat, i think its comedy value is fantastic..

Can any of you send me a link to any sites selling this kind of thing please, maybe in a pm to keep this on some kind of topic..

I would buy this for mates for its comedy value alone... :thumbup:

That post as made my week... good.gif

She couldn't Pete. There is no (recognized) governing body.laugh.gif No qualifications (i hope she has public liability & Indemnity & a CRB check for young dancers). You can get sued if someone follows a dvd and can then prove they were injured as a result of bad teaching.

So she cannot prove she is qualified and therefore her qualifications to teach this in a formal way can be questioned.

Though maybe universities may give it accreditation.ohmy.gif

All of the people who produce this stuff are members of Soul Source, this must be quite hurtful for them, all this slagging off and piss taking - at the end of the day it's just another way of trying to make a living - isn't it?

(p.s. before you ask - I'm not one of them :thumbup: )
