Popular Post pow wow mik Posted September 4, 2014 Popular Post Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) First of all, if you were off your tits, how do you know what you were dancing to? Secondly, if people ram the floor to dance to tracks like Pervis Lee, then they aren't dancing to biggies or classics. And they will obviously dance to anything. Aye, but lifeline / pow wow is probably one of the only dos in the uk where it would 'ram the floor', as the clientelle are knowledgable and discerning, it'd clear the floor at most of the other 60 dos that are on every saturday... so does that mean that at local oldies nights people are really discerning but at lifeline they just get pissed and dance to owt, it that, really, what you're saying?! if pervis lee is filler dj stuff that's cool to dance to, but will never be played at anyone's wedding, then good. This is club music, for a club scene, you want every tune an all time singalong classic then maybe you're ready for the oldies scene ;-) And being 'off my tits' does not mean not knowing what you're doing -only knobheads get like that. I've never once heard a tune when out of my face, like it and written it down, and not liked it just as much sober. it's called being cool, it's an enhanced part of the brain that'll stop me from ever singing 'hi ho silver lining' with a group of lads or anything, when I've had a few ] Edited September 4, 2014 by pow wow mik 4

I'm not saying they're not; but by implication you're saying the clientele at the vast majority of other venues are neither discerning or knowledgable based on the dancefloor acceptance of one albeit pretty good blues track. Get real FFS. Edited September 5, 2014 by ged parker 1
KevH Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Pow wow Mik - did you mean the Lifeline / Pow wow crowd are a tough crowd to impress,because of knowledge and therefore the bar is set high for the dj's?
Driveller Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Too many events but not enough events.... too many Djs and not enough Djs.... If that makes sense Makes absolutely perfect sense, Bearsy. Totally agree. Nick

Get real FFS. You've over-extrapolated somewhat. All I was saying is that most clubs dont play pervis lee and lifeline /pow wow does, or has at least once. All it means is that lifeline /pow wow is the kind of place where you might hear that or something like it, newer things that haven't reached wider success or failure yet. doesnt mean its better or worse than other clubs, depends on your taste I suppose. It isnt true that the clientelle are more discerning cos they dance to pervis lee, but they must be discerning, in one respect at least, because they go to a club that trys different things and styles, like pervis lee. More discerning than a warm blanket of familiar classics, is the comparison I was actually making. really, it'd be unlikely that they got that far in life and then just danced to whatever the djs played, that's more a phenomenon at student nights I'd have thought. but really, just banter with phil 3
Ged Parker Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 You've over-extrapolated somewhat. More a case of your over generalisation than my over extrapolation I think. :-) Im sure most people (even Phil lol) already know what Lifeline is all about.

Well, he said it was all about people dancing to anything that the djs played, even if substandard, so I dont know. apart from that, point taken. ]
