  1. I understand that in the current climate total costs for a night out inc admission/fuel/beer etc makes some folks reconsider their plans, but the majority of attendees on the soul scene has, for a long time now, taken issue with paying more than £4/£5 for a soul night or £10 for a nighter. £10 for 5 hours, let alone 10 hours+ isn't really over the top imo, you'd pay more to watch 2 movies at the cinema, or to play 5 hours worth of bowling, or to go swimming for a similar length of time etc etc etc You'd probably pay as much to park your motor in a city centre car park and listen to your radio for 5 hours As I say, this issue is more apparent in recent times, but has been there for a good many years. I remember upping admission price at a soul night I used to promote a few years ago from £3.50 to £4...the general response from a high percentage of the regulars was somewhat unbelievable...over a mere 50p
  2. That passes as a marriage proposal in the Potteries mate. Foreplay round here usually involves buying her half a pint of fizzy lager and asking if she swallows
  3. So you lied then Didn't realise Sheffield was over 330 miles from you mind.
  4. Which ones beyond 300 miles would you cross the street for then Davie? Do Pow Wow and Backbeat at Middleton not appeal to you at all?
  5. fibber.....knew you'd bite as well
  6. Kinnel, that's it then.....the nighter scene must be f**ked Just a few points mind....... 1. You don't have to stay to the very end to enjoy a nighter....you can go home whenever you want, so the feeling shite and knackered for 3 days afterwards doesn't have to be the case. 2. On the same note, you don't have to get shitfaced on gear to enjoy nighters. 3. The music policy on most nighters will usually be predictable by the DJ line-up, the advertising, plus past events/word of mouth etc, so if you end up hearing the same old same old all night then you need to be a bit more selective on where you go. 4. Late bars don't result in numpties attending imo. Lack of suitably trained doorstaff (if any at all!) and advertising extensively via local media attracts them....personally think you get more numpties at soul nights on the whole cus they don't want to pay £10+ admission. 5. Be honest now folks, how many of those who have posted negative comments on this thread who also DJ, would attend a nighter if asked to do a set at 5 a.m. (quite a few I bet )
  7. Does the old saved searches still work on ebay as it's format has changed a lot over the years? Found a copy of the Rollers in the States for a hefty $15 recently....
  8. You'd never know it it....he could peel an orange in his hipsters pocket
  9. Anyone who managed to cadge a drink of either of those pair has my upmost respect.....
  10. PMed ya!
  11. Kinnel Joe, there's a thought, tissues will cost you twice as much...
  12. Not as much as I will
  13. Straight....I can make it curved with a hairdryer if it helps?
  14. I think the fact you're selling records 3 for a tenner does the job for me.... Are you wearing Johnnys favourite trousers to the airport.....the ones that resemble a plasterers radio?
  15. Went down well then.... Who knows, after showing your true feelings in Philly you may well get plenty of sex from your travel companion
  16. But can you afford to take a bath on it...? Don't try the sales patter mate, leave it to Beggsy.....mind you, a bit of pillowtalk with him might teach you a few tricks
  17. Overplayed oldie anyhows..... Give ya 75p for it mind......
  18. Heard you wanted a one sided acetate of this Mik
  19. Found the bugga. White promo in M- condition, clean crisp white labels. PMed ya
  20. Another one I've got stuffed in a box somewhere, pretty sure its a minter as well. No idea on value so make me a fair price and its yours (if I can find it ) Regards Mace
  21. Already done the £15 one mate Get them £1 bargains listed up and fill yer boots
  22. Paypal eh.....might be an idea for you to paypal me £50 to keep my mouth shut about Beggsy rejecting your romantic advances as you attempted to cuddle up to him in a cheap Philly Motel room a few weeks back... Bugga, cats out the bag....that's me £50 out of pocket then.... Sorry
  23. He's got a big fine to pay Jocko, I did tell him 'getting it out' in public would land him in trouble but would he listen......
  24. Pretty sure I've got a spare of this somewhere.....had a white promo and a black Canadian issue if my memory serves me well. Will try and dig it out this week to check condition etc.
  25. Exactly the same record mate...and don't bother searching for it cus I do regularly I picked one up in the States last year and then found one on Richard Domars list when I got home for £9 Think Ady Pearce also had one a few years ago but it was long gone when I enquired
