Guest Carrie Mehome Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 The first person to "smile" at me at Bisley gets a drink! I hate grumpy types...
kimbo Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) When you travel to a venue (not a niter mostly soul nites) maybe 80-100 miles music is excellent, not a lot of people in attendance. We are up for a good nite, dance etc but the promotors and their other halves just sit about. then wonder why no excitement or increased punters thru the door. That really gets my goat...oh yes it does. Kimbo. NOTE just a hate, this is not aimed at any venue I attend at the mo as they are all top nites. Edited June 7, 2008 by kimbo

Guest rachel Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 People on eBay who email asking for feedback (I know that's not exclusive to soul but it's currently driving me mad) - am tempted to leave it longer just because they've felt the need to beg for it as if it was the most important thing in the world Having seventeen million SS topics entitled 'Am I Missing Something?' when 99% of them know they aren't missing anything and actually mean 'look at this idiot/ conman that I've spotted'
pikeys dog Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 What I hate most on the scene is people who say "choons". Add to that "Choonage", "Tunage" and any other wanky variation.
Pauldonnelly Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) people who think they are so fekkin superior because they have a chance to attend those venues that play that great music we all adore where it kicks off at 11 and finishes at 5 in the morning. I'm gonna do Burnley is Aug and then the fat lady will sing ending 36years of attending all-nighters on and off. Edited June 6, 2008 by PaulDonnelly

Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 My pet hate on the scene is people on the scene who hate pets... ...OK so it's not really but the car wouldn't get me to Cleggy, and I'm waiting for the kettle to boil and the day to end, so I thought I'd say it anyway!

That really gets my goat...oh yes it does. Kimbo. Good point. Promoters who spit the dummy because of what they see as 'poor attendance'. Not recognising that the ones who are there have made the effort , so they should to!! Common problem...
kimbo Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 people who think they are so fekkin superior because they have a chance to attend those venues that play that great music we all adore where it kicks off at 11 and finishes at 5 in the morning.

Don't really know you well Paul but have heard your spots over the years (good taste) and had many a chuckle at your wit on here. So if the fat lady is gonna sing its a sad day mate will there be a burning of the budgie jacket and white skinners (baggsy the sock drawer) . Respect kimbo.
Pete S Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Add to that "Choonage", "Tunage" and any other wanky variation. Yes. They are utter c*ntagers.

I do all feedbacks once a week or once a fortnight, they can wait.
Maark Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 My pet hate on the scene is people on the scene who hate pets... ...OK so it's not really but the car wouldn't get me to Cleggy, and I'm waiting for the kettle to boil and the day to end, so I thought I'd say it anyway! Cleethorpes being called "Cleggy" (it should be Cleethy, surely?) People who were into Jazz funk for 10 years but are now died in the wool chinstrokers but look down on everyone else. Anyone that has "Burnley " in 7 points lettering in their signatures. Postman Pat lookalikes. "Events" thread spoilers....even though they have never been or intend to go. Think that just about covers it for me!

pikeys dog Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 People who tag onto threads, with inane comments, just so they can 'promote' their forthcoming night....
Guest clanger v2 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Plug sockets downstairs at Middleton. Sorry Joe......
Pete S Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Cleethorpes being called "Cleggy" (it should be Cleethy, surely?) I'm sure I copyrighted that saying about 4 years ago But I agree with you.
Pete S Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 People who tag onto threads, with inane comments, just so they can 'promote' their forthcoming night.... Spot on again my friend.
pikeys dog Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 It's a South Yorkshire thing.... just like people whose name is Smith being called Smiggy

Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 My current pet hate is finding out that everyone else is going to Cleethorpes tomorrow and I'm off to Bisley! Think of all that room you'll have to move around on the dancefloor. Just watch out for the tumbleweeds and you'll be OK...
Guest Bernadette Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 My current pet hate is finding out that everyone else is going to Cleethorpes tomorrow and I'm off to Bisley! at least you're doing something soulful...i'm having a totally non-soulful weekend which is my number one pet hate have a good one babes
Guest Matt Male Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 My current pet hate is finding out that everyone else is going to Cleethorpes tomorrow and I'm off to Bisley! Come to Nuneaton. Oops, that was 'people who use other people's threads to plug soul nights' wasn't it?
Bazza Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) Having to stop in and watch "Law and Order " on the Hallmark channel when I could be out Dancing........like tonight Bazza Edited June 6, 2008 by bazza
blade55 Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 suppose in the scheme of things and with all these clever arse replies this will seem irrelevant but (A) your average soul fan is much more ITK than you would like to admit (not all) and ( when even I could do an oldies spot that we hadn't heard for yonks, do we have to listen to the same overplayed shite (not really shite but after all those plays sems like it). TBH We could start a new scene playing oldies that get ignored. Sorry I am an old fart but this is true, in fact (its got me !!!!)
El Corol Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Talking to other collectors/soul fans who insist on trying to outdo you by naming obscure records and thinking you must be a bit of a twat if you've never heard them...........otherwise known as the illusion that Nothern Soulies are the friendliest people on earth....well yes as long as you know your place and I can look down on you and look up to Searling/Butch etc............very reminiscent of a sketch from the 60's with Cleese, Barker and Corbett!!!!!
Guest Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 What I hate most on the scene is people who say "choons". pete your wrong again ..... its CHOON ! BRUV !
Ceejay Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 (edited) This happened recently and is peeing me off a bit!! Hearing what I think is a brilliant tune and taking a few weeks asking about to find out who the artist is (knew the title but not the artist). Then when I finally find out, BEING TOLD TO KEEP MY TRAP SHUT AS ONE OR TWO DJ'S INTEND COVERING IT UP!!!! AAAARRGGHHH!!!!! Edited June 7, 2008 by jobbo
Madmandy Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Yes the goodbyes to everyone ...including the bar staff and the cleaner sweeping up the talc LOLOL Mand x
