Just got a text from my dad..
The point is that Mr Roberts had a clean slate with a lot of us when he first came on here..There are plenty other people making a living out of soul music too on here..Most choose to include the sales pitch with other genral bits of wisdom,John Manship and many others contribute to the site as a whole from time to time...Mr Roberts came on here from day one thinking we were all fools and he could get away with his brand of marketing and just step all over us..
The newspaper CALLED WRISTBAND WEEKLY had a report on the Moday after that weekender..
After a few rounds we had Kev on the ropes,he kept coming back but got put down again and again..He took too many punches in the end and had the crowd against him also with bad boy antics and threats of legal action if you would dare to question him..He came like a dictator but got blown away by free speech ... He left to lick his wounds and came back under a different name to spy on us and see what free speech was doing to his reputation...He seems to have hung up his gloves now with us but still fights in other forums that will fall for all the flannel....
Events at Whitby were the beginning of the end for Goldsoul with many on here,people stood up to the bully and said "you get away with murder on the whole but not on here.....Many have said that Mr Roberts should leave is PR to others because he made a real mess of it with members on here....I now know so many folk who would not go to any Goldsoul event ever again after some of his comments and actions...
He will always have a very big say with regards to whats on in the soul world but now he does realise that we aint all gonna fall for the biggest/best/ bla bla bla .....
I have friends who still go to his events,would never try to question them,free world and all that..Many have a good time..I choose to stay away for health reasons
Merry xmas xxx
