Yes the floor is full at oldies nights with dazed & confused people, unfortunately most of them are looking for the cloak-room.

Hey Roger, got any new tunes that do self-conciously sound like old soul records?

If dancing to the 10 O'Clock news ever became popular, it would only be a matter of time before somebody told you the 2.30pm from Grampian News was much better. Col Noticed that ITV news channel on sky ceased broadcasting on 31.12.05, that will be collectable now.

I still like it. But there again I haven't aged that well either......or some would say grown up

Just think none of this would have happened if Janine & Dave had actually turned up on time. Try setting off a bit earlier

Would Tim have played it though, if he had known that it had been played once before. I don't think so, as he made a brief apology. Which is a nice thing to do. If DJs (esp ones at Top 500 oldies events) wrote down what they played, then its gives the following DJ the option of whether to play it or not.

Nah, skip the inquest - takes too long. Hang the DJ - discuss it later.

Watched 3 ex -Wigan jocks treble decking a few years ago at Fleet. Managed to come up with Mitch Ryder, I was shocked. Case of too many DJs spoil the night!

Well you mention it almost every other post And I stand by it:- brilliant, emotive, uplifting record. First time it was ever played at Bisley as far as I'm aware. Trouble is, I'm a man way ahead of my time & they just weren't ready for me Good to see you back on here Wayne Col.

If I have to explain it to you, then you'll never understand it

Doing the best I can, with the material available. Thats it from me. Take care Col.

[quote name='Dave Abbott' date='Jan 4 2006, 10:00 PM' post='226099' A good old time record that suited the occaision

No problems there, I played Archie Bell - The Soul City Walk amongst others on NYE But RD Taylor......flogging a dead horse mate I think that Janine has a mischievous streak........ Col Dance ironically?........I've only just mastered the 'sardonic' shuffle

What a motown record? Is that right?

Changed his story now! Somebody wound up Tim telling him that the record had already been played once. Tim apologised, mate heard the apology. Not quite the same is it? Never let facts get in the way of a good story. Good to see the main culprits coming forward though - Dave & Janine.....take a bow. Col. If you need a copy, get down to Alan's shop, apparently he's still selling it as a new release

My source is obviously rubbish.........going to phone him right now!

Just got off the phone to a mate who went to Stoke on New Years Eve He stated that "Ghost In My House" was played by 2 different DJs on the night Please tell that didn't happen......

But Jo, did you ask the question we all need to know the answer too........ How Big Is Big? Col

Do you think they will have anything by Sherry & The Trifles?

Some recent requests have been De Vons - Someone To Eat Me AC Reed - My Baby's Been Eating (I Know) Marie Knight - That's No Way To Eat A Girl

Thanks, Had a quick look at site, but didn't get past home page after reading the following: "We consider all Motowners family. Our MAA members are also family!" I just have problems with stuff like that! Col.

Drink prices at bar are v.expensive, but as covered in previous thread - there are ways around it.

Thanks Chalky..........enjoyed B side too.

You just have to see Mischiefs dance to The Snake. Honestly, it will crack you up.

"s for the Rocket, first nite, packed, too packed really, but hard place to fill as v.big and parking a nitemare! How many people didnt get their cars broken into is what I would like to know as Im not on that list! I have good memories of going there due to attending with a v.good friend of mine, not with us anymore" Yep, agree totally. First night packed, no room to dance & sound from speakers was dreadful. Mates also had their car broken into. Col. Sorry, next bit completely off topic, but maybe slightly amusing to some. Another mate Steve & I went for a quick beer round the corner. Pub was an Irish pub & they were having a karoke. As soon as we walked in it stopped & it was one of the moments where tumbleweed could have blown across the floor. One of the locals took an instant dislike to my mates leather trench coat. His opening line was "a bit of a nazi are you?" I thought fcuk, here we go again!
