  1. At last the REAL reason i leave the niters early,,,, who could keep this lady waiting!!
  2. Theres one here ,,,, never seen ome b4 !! https://www.musicstack.com/item/221518215
  3. I never knew this had a Stardust release,,,, only seen the 100 Club Anni single which are quite hard now
  4. I think may main bone of contension here is the Guest DJ (Soul Night or Niter) who arrive just before there spot or late the leave the venue immediatley after!! I hate that meself its rude and gives us all the bad name!! And i mean DJs who do that regulally ,,,,, we all have moments were we have got lost or had traffic problems even in the age of the Sat Nav!! As ive said bfore personally i try to arrive early as poss ,,,, and i personall do not leave straight away as i need a bit or warm down time ,,,,, sounds stupid i know but thats me!! The only time ive left early was a Soul Night in Ramsbottom last year where i became ill while DJing and left stariaght after my set ,,, i cant think of another time ive left staight away!! The other way round 2 years ago at Whitby i fell fast asleep at the hotel and was ten minutes late for my spot that night ,,,, but idid stay till the end of the evening I find it interesting that after all the Whooo Ha no one yet has has the Balls to Name and Shame Thats is why i was open and honest with everone on here Brave Keyboard Warriors ,,, Pahhh!
  5. Appreciate support guys and my comments were not aimed at Support,,,, honestly!! But i do NOT take the money and run,,,as most people know im always in the record sales area wheeling and dealing! But this thread aint all about me ,,, I just wanted to put the record stariaght with some who dont know me ,, thats all , 7 Not everyones cup of tea but i will be at the Kings Hall this Sat from 8-30 pm ,,,, hoping to be there till around 4am From 10 pm till i leave i will be in the Small rooom anaraking with some of the finest Soulies on th planet , until i skulk away home ,, cant afford a travalodge!

  6. Be a dj mate they never stay all night mini or otherwise I will start this thread as a comment as it was fueled by Tez's ( Peggy Babcock) comment above on the Mini Niter thread!,,,, I have as most people who know me have done soul nights and nighters from when i was a kid in the very early 70s,,,, and enjoyed staying to the end of niters and then to the services ,, friends place or a dayer etc. As that awefull cliche says it really is a way of life after that long,,,,, Cutting a very long probably boring story short in 2004 i had a Mini Stroke ,,i was very lucky and within a few months i got back to a level were i could enjoy the scene still to the full,,, Two years later my best friend Nige Shaw died with heart complications after a by pass ,,, That was when the Original Middleton was the t he countrys no 1 all niter,,,, after Shawy died i did one more FULL niter ,,, and it made me come to terms with things!! Ive NEVER Done a FULL All Niter or Mini Niter Since If im booked for a Nighter i always ask for an Early or Not to late spot or i cant do it!! In short i value my health ,,, SIMPLES! I have a standing joke with Dave Rivers about leaving Nighters early ,,, Most time i arrive at a venue just after the start so some times im at the ACTUAL venue LONGER than some people who arrive at the nighter after midnight!! But that doenmt seem to count !! In some peoples eyes Yeah im a lightweight ( piss off Eccles lol) DJ who leaves early ,,, but after this long i dont have to prove anything as a DJ or collector to anyone,,,If ya dissagree thats your problem not mine,,, It might be different for other Scene DJs ,,, I love this music and will attend whenever i can,,, but i WILL leave a venue when i fookin want to !!

  7. Great underplayed B side too!! Just seen a Demo on Sean Chapmans site!!!
  8. I really wasnt having a pop at you personally Russ,,, I just thought 99% of us on here by now would KNOW what a Mini Niter is and usually around what time they finish!! Also i thought it may open the door for for stupid remarks and pictures which it did! Thats all ,,,, Nige PS I still miss Jack Duckworth ,,, lovely you had the time to search that one out
  9. Who gives a toss what a night is called!! Some of the threads on here scrape the barrelll these days!!

  12. I may be wrong but i think the 70s boot was White ,,, and the font was nothing like the real Constellation label Issues are blue ,,,, great b side by the way!! N x
  13. Trends is a fookin bargain for someone!!
  14. You wanna say these remarks to Soul Sam and see what he sats to yas !! N x
  15. Words of a Non Collector!! If you collected maybe you would get it Very few of us are " minted" and THAT is part of the passion! N x
  16. Could someone finally please clear up how legitimate these Stardust releases are? Have heard on a number of occasions that they are legally pressed in Canada so therefore they are not bootlegs. Also have a very good reason for asking (& it's got nothing to do with The Tempests release). Im may be totally wrong the first ones came from Anglo American in Todmorden over 10 years ago,, so i always assumed the Canada Conection was Martin Kopell Tims partner in Canada As for how legit they are god knows!! N x
  17. Just wanna Say had seveal PMs and Face book Pms about this It was NOT me who sold this for deffo!! In some ways i wish it was then in some ways im glad it aint me Nige Brown
  18. O K then Pete Pete F s Original Question in a nutshell So what's the crack, has he sold up? YES!!! And how come he still gets invited to DJ? PROMOTORS ASK HIM!! Is this common at these "handbag" type of venues? VERY! If anybody other than me gave a shit, they certainly weren't showing it. THEY DONT! SIMPLES Just being open /outspoken N x
  19. If you read my post properly ,,, i was answering a question about CDs being used by Chris King at the KINGS HALL!! Which HE does not!! None of us do there!! The guy who asked the question abot CK probably doesnt even attend the Kings Hall or hed know CDs arnt used in the main room!!! But i guess if Colin Curtis was on a KINGS HALL line up he may choose that playing format,, thats up to him,,, i love it how the Key Board Warriors on slate such a legend on our scene when he doesnt even have the luxery to reply to some of the snide critism,, bit thats Soul Source is it not!! Pete F said he chose Blackpool as apposed to his first choice the Rugby All Niter,,,, but i read there where CDs Played there also and a Kid playing bootlegs/re issue ( which i have praised on there look back thread) ,,, so it aint just Colin Curtis ,, CDs were played down there too!! Its like Pete Smith implied i guess rule for some blah de blah!! George Orwell,,,, All Animals are Equal,,,, But,,,, Some Are More Equal Than Others!! N x
  20. This should be now moved to Comedy Sale of the Day post,,,, never thought id see the Day when the Stardust Re Issue goes for more than the original LP!! Wonder if the seller has a a few copies N x
  21. NONE of us DJs with CDs at the Kings Hall in the Main Room In my own case 100% OVO ,,, At the Last two Gold Soul Events i have DJd at theres been the Addition of Deck Cams to showing the actual record spinning !! Nige x
