  1. I've deejayed in various places history does not come into this tribute bands has nothing to do with this either I asked a simple question is Southampton deprived of soul or not obviously promotional attributes are in fold I asked is there nothing on or something on so end of thread some great inputs but all taken in the wrong text I will survive happily in the north promoting my own gigs I stress my md only asked is there a gap !!!!

  2. Alfie thanks as I HAVE tried to state I'm not invading,raping or pillaging  this area it was an idea my md came up with because of the involvement i have here in the mere north west so your involvement would be a grateful asset to or Derek as for someone not turning up before we even start is beyond me but each to his/her own my number is on here so thank you for you kind and honest imput your end if involved would be to include ovo djs from your area cheers stevie

    Hi Guys

    hope all is well with you lovely ppl

    As a promoter on the south coast I will be totally honest with you all..

    i agree with Bearsy & Kev Higham on most about the scene down here on the south coast...

    i personally have found that as each year goes by it has got harder and harder to put on an event.. One of the reasons why I cancelled this year Dayer is because so many events have started up in the last 12 months and most (not all) don't give a monkeys uncle if they clash.. Bloody Shame really ... There are some fantastic record collections and first class DJs down here that don't get a look in.. Again a bloody shame... 

    The Southampton Soul Clib All- Dayer was an Annual event and around 75% of the Soulies that supported it travelled from around the country... Another annual event I do is New Years Eve and again most of the ppl that attend traveled.. 

    Going back to the Dayer when Ruth & I  started it there wasn't anything in like it within 150 miles.. This year alone there is a dayer 20 miles away so that gives you an idea of what the soul scene is like nowadays.. 

    I used to ask quality DJs from up & down the country to come along like Sean Chapman/Ted Massey/Nige Brown plus local quality DJs with first class collections and knowledge .. To name a few Dave Abbott/Tim Smithers/Beasy plus many more ..

    ive also flown in Marc Forest from Germany to Guest DJ for us..

    If your planning on putting on an event Steve then I wish you all the very best with it.. And any help needed I would gladly give as I'm always up for a new challenge ...

    Anyway that my view 

    regards

    Alfie

    Indifferent posts yes from Manchester but this is our sister hotel (total of 12 over the country) I was asked by our md to try and run this they have a supremes tribute night on and tickets have done well in sales but that is another matter I feel a bit disgruntled with one reply so if Richard,kev,Chris ,Neil put on an event in your area you wouldn't go?? I am only putting feelers out but if this is the case forget I asked for opinions rmd good opinions thanks for your input we would only play ovo and have room to bend a 2nd room in too, djs from here and there to keep part of it in that particular area and as you stated the  venue is free djs would be accommodated accordingly

  5. I've recently been asked to run a northern gig in this area as being a.mere northerner I ain't got a clue as how the scene stands down there but a 17th century spa hotel with 55 rooms and can hold 500 but realistically about 320 with space to manoeuvre I'm looking at taking it on with some jocks up here and some from the local area Sunday alldayer or weekender does the scene thrive or is miniscule in this area as I've heard indifferent voices on this please your input would be great regards to all Steve
