Guest Trevski Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Just a hypothetical question, but, say you ran a Soul Nite, quite successfully, and you asked a guy from another venue to DJ for you. Ok so far? Good. Now suppose the guy you asked to DJ then goes to the management, and suggests they get rid of you, and give him the venue instead. Question. would you- A/ Be annoyed. B/ Do nothing, it's a fair world. C/ Punch his lights out. D/ Name and shame. E/ Give up. opinions please!

Haven't read all the replies, so this might have already been said - If your soul nights were "quite successful", then why would the venue management want to change and perhaps risk losing money?
soul45s Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Nothing suprises me anymore at the low levels the odd few stoop to on this scene, thankfully the cretins are few and far between! The green eyed monster raises it's ugly head once more! It's tragic regards paul

Quinvy Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Trev, I think anyone who has promoted on this scene will know all about this. As soon as I did my first all nighter Gary [the owner of the venue] told me he had been approached by 2 or 3 people who wanted to run an all nighter there. Luckily for me, he's a good guy and told them to go through me. Sorry to say this scene is so full of devious cnuts and politics that it's hard to believe at times. Even had real nice people come up to me and say "sorry we haven't been to your nighter for a while Phil, but we were getting a lot of grief from some of the people who go there, and we don't want any trouble." Unbelievable! and these are so called soul people not local piss heads..... Sad, very sad. Phil.
Dazdakin Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Say nothing, let him promote as if all is well spending his hard earned cash on advertising then at precisely 15mins before the doors are due to opened.................BOMB THREAT CALLED IN TO THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER OFFICE!! Seem to remember this worked wonders many years ago when the Wirrina stuck a nighter on the same night as the fleet, with the end result being they all left the Wirrina and went to the fleet...........allegedly
Guest Sean Haydon Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 A/. Be annoyed, obviously. B/. Deffinatley do something about it. If the management are good enough to tell you, never ask the DJ back to your club and never support him if he finds a new venue. If they do go with him, it's a dirty trick and are not worth dealing with anyway! Let them both get on with it. What goes round comes around, the management will find out the hard way. C/. Never use violence, not good on our scene, you'd be classed as the bad guy one way or another. Keep your dignity. D/. Name and shame, yes, to the people that matter to you but not publicly. E/. Never give up!!! If he does take over, think how you can be Better! then get yourself a new venue with trusting management, who's worthy of your commitment. The club with good policies and high moral standards will come out on top. Sean

Think carefully before going down that line.lol
Guest Bearsy Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 soul stocks is the only answer Magoo who runs Kent Soul Club had someone approach the venue to see if they could put on a night there and the management told him and refused the advance but dont think he ever found our who it was but it was defo someone who had attended his night, some just see a success and what it themselves wankers and need exposing imho

Fantastic venue and I'm always saying I wish I'd found it first. So - can I categorically state that IT WASN'T ME. Trevski, stop any rumours now. Name and shame.
Premium Stuff Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Yes, Trev - just say who it is. Then, if they are on here they can put their side of things. Richard
barney Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 similar thing happened round here the other year where the owner of a popular venue decided that the promoters of the event (which was very well attended usually a sell out) were in his opinion running the show as a private club and said he was going to get someone else to run it, this caused a lot of friction and the fallout from same still exists, because the people who took over ran the event on the same nights as the original promoters (who were well liked and respected) who in the meantime had re-arranged their event at another venue on the original dates , the people who ran the original event had worked hard and put a lot of effort into promoting and organising the said event and felt let down under the circumstances in which they were treated and for fellow soulies to step in and run an event on the same dates in my opinion just wasnt on, thankfully sense has prevailed and events no longer clash, the original promoters now run a packed out night on a regular basis at the new venue, to me its about respect and if people are going to act in this manner then they dont deserve respect and fellow soulies /punters should see it for what it is , and were what is stated ,to happen then surely any right thinking person should no longer attend such a venue , cheers b.
Guest Trevski Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Yes, Trev - just say who it is. Then, if they are on here they can put their side of things. Richard I cannot in due respect to my chum, name names. If he wants to come on and put the story, fine. He told me about this, and I take his word completely. The "other party' was confronted about it outside, and made a hasty retreat, after the Management, to their credit, spilled the beans. When I heard this, it got me soooo mad I decided to post the 'hypothetical' question, with the idea that the perpetrator would see how annoyed the general SS community were over his actions, and be duly shamed. I think this has been achieved. As the grapevine goes, word will filter out, off site, I'm sure, but its not up to me to say 'who' on here. I just wanted a general consensus of opinion, as to how fellow SS members would feel, which I have got. As to rumours, If you are not one of my best mates and I don't pop in your house on a regular basis for a cup of tea, (Black, stirred anti-clockwise) Then you know it's nothing to do with any of your venues!
mischief Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Trevski... if this has happened to your mate, did he A - Tell you so you would tell everyone you knew. B - Tell you in private. C - Tell you to let everyone on Soul Source know one of its members stabed him in the back. D - Tell you he spoke to the managment at the venue and all is sorted as its a sucess and they are happy for him to carry on. E - Or do you just feel like causing agg today.
