So the up & coming DJ thread has had over 250 posts & over 7000 views so here's the dilemma.

Before we know it there will be more DJ's than punters

Saw a guy do a spot recently (not who i originally mentioned) & he spent the full hour rooted to the spot with his arms folded & it was clear he couldn't be bothered & it was the longest hour i have ever witnessed.

Not going to name him for the simple reason that luckily i've forgot his name.

Remember this is just a bit of fun so no personal attacks please.

Who should move over to make space for them, who should be put out to pasture so we don't end up with more DJ's than punters?

dodgy ground here ...not gonna name anyone but anyone who is living on past reputations , i'm sure they know who they are ...but if pushed and maybe to stir up discussion i'd honestly say anyone over 45

I don't think anyone should move over for anyone else. There might be a finite number of spots, not sure if there are though, but quality will always come through. No one should give a DJ a spot just because they are young or up and coming, that's tokenism and does nobody any favours. The best DJs will get the spots. Let your records and your skill do the talking i say

Sort of get your point, however if nobody is moving over how are we going to know if the new Jocks are any good ?

That is what I love about small local Gigs, you get to hear Djs that have great tunes and are very good technically. However they will not get a chance at the big events if the old school do not back down !

You have to have good promoters who can scout for new jocks or bring the good ones back ( Northern Scene Wise ) .maybe Dave Thorley should try his hand again . For the thread , anyone whose got a buspass should retire

Simon

Here we go again with the Logan's Run brigade.

Why should anyone retire? As long as they keep buying records and playing new stuff (or have great oldies if that's what the club demands) why shouldn't they keep going?

The only reason the other thread got so many views is that hordes of people who mistakenly think they are 'young' (face it you're not young - you just feel young because you spend your weekends with people older than you are. Same reason I make sure all my mates are ugly) were probably reading it 25 times a day in the hope that one of their mates had mentioned their name.

Quality is quality and personally I'd rather watch Goodfellas than Bugsy Malone.

Just to get the ball rolling i nominate Mr Brian Rae, the guy has been around since day 1 & has given pleasure to countless punters covering several generations so enjoy your retirement old fella, you've earned it

Remember this is just a bit of fun so no personal attacks please.

Personaly i don,t think there is any need for anyone to retire from the wheels of steal if you look at the line up iv,e got on at Heavenly Blocked All-Dayer 6th May the age,s of the DJs range from 26 to 52 all who have been booked for wot they play not who they are who cares how old someone is as long as they play the records that are required to fill the dancefloor at the said venue i use a mix of local & national known DJs it seems to work for us if you dont believe me come down and see for yourself

If theyre any good they'll shine thru', if theyre not they wont..................any decent promoter books on quality not the age of the DJ, jeez what ever next...............to a teenager any one over 25 is past it, so where the hell 38 comes from is beyond me, can we just concentrate on the music please, ridiculous comments about age etc just detract from it, who gives a toss so long as the quality is there. One of the very very very best DJ's the scene has ever had or will have for that matter is Soul Sam, & I would be most upset if this guy was forcibly made to retire, no one could replace this fella, fantastic taste, the bollocks to play unknowns frequently & the enthusiasm of DJ's half his age, you retire naturally when the bookings stop.

Got to agree with many of the points, however just because youre considered old (over 45)does not necessarily mean that youre going to play OLD STUFF all the time...now and then maybe, theres lots of quality Soul out there post 60/70's The new tunes are not necessarily the domain of the young...ask Dodger !!!

Oh Really . Fantastic Great minds etc etc

this one really gets my goat , a lot of the older d.j's can still show the young ones a thing or two what really gets me are so called d.j's who can't or won't even use a mike, yes you can play a few more records but not everyone in the building will know what's being played, just remember this d.j's are there to entertain a crowd and create an atmosphere if you dont use a mike and stand there looking like you'de sooner be watchin corrie or eastenders the crowd will pick up on this ,

at the end of the day it's the punters who pay your wages at the end of the night if you give them a good time they will return so as for older d.j's giving up well im sure that when thier ready they will .

and russ i agree with you soulsam is by far the best d.j.for his enthusiasm, commitment and entertainment, and of course for breaking new records

there would be a lot less dj's if people who couldn't string a spot together were told early doors that they were crap and isn't it a populist saying that "everyone is a dj these days " well lets thin it out .... old and young and end with the best of the bunch and not just the same names

To say age has anything to do with being a good DJ is complete shit. I'm as on the case for new and fresh tunes as any of my peers or anyone I know personally for that matter and I'm not scared to ever play them when I DJ. And as somebodys' said, take Soul Sam for instance, and whilst I don't agree with a lot of his hypocrisy and often galling way of telling others in print how they should be doing things the way he does, I totally respect his enthusiasm and bollocks as a DJ who'll trust his own judgement with the music he plays. I'm 48 in a couple of weeks time and Sam's coming up to his Queen's telegram so why should a couple of DJ's who try and keep things fresh and moving forward in their respective scenes be told to move over because they're over a certain age. I'd hope the original post was tongue in cheek because age has nothing to do with being a decent DJ, it's about attitude towards the music and awareness of the people you're playing to, and much of the latter comes from experience. The only people imho who should move over are the DJ's being booked on the strength of past glories but who are still churning out the same sets and tunes they were doing 10/15 years ago - that (again imho) is why things can get so stagnant for some.

But as we all know, it's not what you know it's who you know and and the only people who really care are the other DJ's who want to take their place and let's be honest, most punters couldn't care less which DJ is playing the music as long as it's music they like, a fact which I think many DJ's can't grasp . . .

All imvfho of course!!

Exactly, a bit like booking girls just for that reason. Most people who want to DJ get asked to do small local things, if they are any good they get asked to do more and so on.

I doubt anyone is just asked to DJ at a big nighter, most people would have gone the route of gradually getting their name known and bookings on the strength of what they have done before.

To book people because they fit a certian age criteria is rather silly IMO

very dodgy ground, 10,000 lines and a rap on the knuckles with a ruler may be pending young Davie.

There are alot of DJs above ..... shall I say a certain age........... who are still packing floors, finding new sounds and also have the experience of "working the floor" which is something which can only come with experience(IMHO)..............but it is all about a right of passage.....me thinks......

OK, someone pass me my coat

If you're good enough you're old enough. Age shouldn't be a barrier to getting a spot, but it cuts both ways as far as I'm concerned. If you're shit, then just because you're young, don't expect people to hold back in tellign you so.

There's too many out there on the scene already who shouldn't be let within 2 miles of a set of decks to do a set IMHO.

Good grief I would never say anything like that, nor would I infer anything like that, the LAST thing I am is a 'big up ya'self bwoyyyy'!!! I only tried to point out that age, compared with the right all round attitude, is irrelevant when a DJ's behind the decks.

Agree with you Russ with the if they are good enough comment. However not all promoters book quality, many dj's get sets because of who they know and not how good they are

All the dj's that make me want to travel have been around years and I don't see anyone good enough coming through to move them over.

THE ONE THING I AGREE ON IS,ITS NOT YOUR AGE,SEX OR BLOODY ANYTHING ELSE,ITS ABOUT CAN YOU ENTERTAIN THE PAYING PEOPLE,AND SEND THEM HOME HAPPY,

Not really Gav, more of a dig at DJ's who just go through the motions.

EG, Turn up 10 minuites before they're due on, play the 20 records that they have decided on & then piss off as soon as they have been paid.

Dodger summed it up perfectly in his earlier post regarding his comments about Sam, still as keen as a 21 year old & still doing it because he loves it. Same can be said for Dodger, both Dodger & Sam have done spots for Modernism & when Sam was on he was bouncing about like a kid with a new toy behind the decks. Hope i've still got as much enthusiasm when i get to that age.

As for Dodger the night he did our's we were quiet for a number of reasons, clashing with other night's, shit weather etc. but he still drove over the pennines & did a great spot with as much enthusiasm as if the place was packed to the rafters, he even turned down his fee as we were quiet & just took his petrol money (didn't know he drove a Rolls Royce though ).

That's the point i'm trying to make, guy's who do it for the love of the music rather than how much they're gonna get paid.

as we discussed at prestatyn andy i do the same thing (though i very very very smaller scale ) in that we have a newcomer spot for anyone who wants it , we've had good ones and erm not so good ones and in december ran a newcomers night when we had 4 of them on and one of them has progressed to the main line up for the next even in may

==============

I love these threads, no one ever gets named as a has-been DJ it's all by inference. We constantly read the "It's who you know" blurb, but again never quite find out who it is you need to know. I understand Mike/all mods want to keep things sane (and probably legal) but doesn't that make these kind of threads pointless? On the age limit for DJ's issue, what difference does it make, is anyone coming through that's playing something completely different, I can think of perhaps one, naming him (and it is only my opinion) would detract from the general lets never name anybody feel of the thread

And if you limit the age of the DJ's, don't you then have to limit the age of the punters, or is it just DJ's that are over the hill over the age of 40

Winnie:-)

Young people are evil and really cheeky to boot, they don't have any respect for us elderly folk and laugh at our dancing and dress sense and our bald spots.

They should never be allowed to dj. Over 50s only behind the decks please!
