Guest vespastu Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 Hi. I just wanted to run an idea by you. As a keen skier who go's skiing 2 to 3 times a year i thought it might be a good idea to do a soul in the snow! Based on the soul in the sun theory but in a ski resort instead of a summer holiday resort. I have a house in Bulgaria close to a ski resort and should be able to sort out a venue to use for soul nights (Say Friday Saturday and Sunday) When i go skiing we have a great apres ski but it would just top it off if i had some decent music to listen to. Thought i would do some basic research before i committed myself and would appreciate some feedback. i.e would any of you consider going to something like this and would any DJ's be up for it. Look forward to hearing your comments. STU.
pikeys dog Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 How about a Soul Weekender at a Nudist Camp? On second thoughts, no.... Imagine the tackle flying about in the dancing contest - ugh!

Imagine the tackle flying about in the dancing contest - ugh! link You could go nude at a ski resort. No second thoughts not a good idea. Dont want my tackle to shrink any more.
Chalky Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 I can just see everyone dancing to Ski-ing In The Snow on the farewell night.....on crutches, all with broken legs Can you imagine loads of soulies flying down the slopes in the morning...still wide awake
Chalky Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 I hate sking and I don't like cold link I've been twice and it was superb, couldn't imagine me ski-ing after a soul doo though
Soulsmith Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 I'd give it a go. But it would have to be snow boarding.....do you realise how uncool skiing is? Col
Guest vespastu Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 I'd give it a go. But it would have to be snow boarding.....do you realise how uncool skiing is? Col link Oh yes i forgot, It's cool to board down 100 yards sit in the middle of the slope and talk to your friends about how good you look in baggy clothes Only joking. I snow board and snow blad as well. Just find snow boarding restricting

I snow board and snow blad as well. Just find snow boarding restricting link Yeah I know. The most sensible thing you can do with a snow board is saw it in half & make a pair of skis out of it. But I'm prepared to pay the price just to look cool. Are you skiers still wearing pink lycra, or was that last years fashion? Col.

mischief Posted August 8, 2005 Posted August 8, 2005 Andy imagine you and Tracey trying to be sober enough in the morning to ski in a straight line
Guest James Trouble Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 (edited) My bird's been playing with the idea of getting a 'soul in the snow' thing going for ages. I'll let her know you're interested! What's your email? Edited August 9, 2005 by James Trouble
Guest hammy Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Could work. The scene's been going 'downhill' for ages. I'll get me coat. Hammy

Guest Dan Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 i would deffo be up for it love ski-ing but not keen on the boarders, like you say stu mind you they do have some good apres ski parties
Guest Byrney Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 I've been twice and it was superb, couldn't imagine me ski-ing after a soul doo though link Try boarding - much better!

I snow board and snow blad as well. Just find snow boarding restricting link Or you could stick to Ski-ing, wear pink lycra body suits and drink Hot Todys all day insteading hammering down the slope full wack! Was at Whistler last year - went down a black run with the Mello Souls blasting outta my Ipod. A rush to equal recreationals

Â Was at Whistler last year - went down a black run with the Mello Souls blasting outta my Ipod. A rush to equal recreationals link Always have my mp3 on. Cant beat it. Beautiful mountains, great music. All we need is somwehere to go at night and listen to some decent music. Job done Nothing against snowboarders apart from the fact they cut up the slopes within an hour of them being open and the get in your way coz they are piss slow Apart from that i love em.

jonbuck Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 You could go nude at a ski resort. link Yes you Could they do Nude Downhill Racing JB
Guest vespastu Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 Yes you Could they do Nude Downhill Racing JB link Nice one Thanks for the cd Jon. Great stuff. Will get you booked in soon. All the best. STU
Guest vespastu Posted August 9, 2005 Posted August 9, 2005 imagine Mace naked , oh Shit , got that image in my head now i'll never get to sleep link Great to see you Saturday night mate. Cant wait till Saturday! Love to Tracy.
Mattbolton Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 Dance after being on the slopes all day?! You ain't ski-ing hard enough mate! Me and Ady were so exhausted after our days in the white stuff that we came home, ate and sparked out immediately. Making best use of the £1 ale before bedtime. I think skiing is like being on a dancefloor anyways. Especially shooting down an icy piste at 50 MPH with 'Date With The Rain' in your headphones. Me, Ady, Yann and Rob were thiking of going early next year. We reckoned Messer would last two minutes before being airlifted to safety...... But would be entertaining.... Whereabouts in Bulgaria Stu? Borovets is a great resort with the most exhilarating deep powder runs about.

Guest rachel Posted August 10, 2005 Posted August 10, 2005 Like the idea of snow, nice warm chalets and a fire to relax in front of after a bit of soul at night... but thinking what daytime at weekenders is usually like... not the skiing

Not a hard resort so anyone who can ski (or board) well can Hammer down I'm more the Jelly beans (you don't mean me no good) at 75 mph sort of guy
Mattbolton Posted August 11, 2005 Posted August 11, 2005 "deep powder runs" bloody jargon link You're only jealous cos you've got bandy legs..... Yeah, that's where we were in March. It was great. Bit icy in bits, but the far side top of the mountain stays pretty much unchartered and is perfect for going arse over tit in metre deep snow. 'Tastic.

Can't wait! link If i don't get enough interest i will just do a ski/board hol and get loads of soulies to come along and we can play some music back in one of the rooms Or i'm sure i can get use of a bar who will let us play some tunes.

Have you considered Pamporovo? I'm seriously considering buying a chalet there (checking mortgage options next week) as has 5 of my mates in the same complex. Tell you what if you do decide on Pamp we can do you all a deal on accomodation guv
