As a newbie on SS I'm not sure if this topic has been covered, if so can someone point me in the direction of the thread so I can read it. What I basically want to know is....Can all these different genres of soul music actually work together at soul nights/nighters. R&B, modern, mid-tempo, traditional, do they all compliment each other? What for example should you do if you're playing a set of modern at a do, and it clears the floor? I think the style of music played at a venue very much dictates the politics of the scene. If someone has a particular penchant for mid-tempo, they tend to extol the virtues of said genre, and visit venues playing mostly that style of music. What also seems to happen is that we the punters are/can be pilloried for not allowing the scene to progress, because in the mid-tempo lovers viewpoint we are stuck in a time-warp. I'm not picking on any one style cos I like or dislike it, just using them as examples Can we still be educated, do we need educating? Winnie:-)

============= No real problems if people talc the floor then keep dancing...it's the ones that do it as a matter of course Winnie:-)

================= I was at Wellingborough tonight, and for those who've never been it is literally one of the fastest floors I've ever danced on. And still the punters were putting down talc....it really is hard to stand up on, let alone dance. Did my usual trick, putting down a little water to slow it up, then got moaned at by someone cos they wanted to dance. Didn't matter to them that I was actually dancing there....the person felt I was in the wrong I tried to smile sweetly, but apparently it's not my strongest suit She then danced for two records, and sat down, her desire to dance quenched Serious question here, if someone were to have an accident at one of these nights...would they have recourse to sue? Winnie:-)

============= He does have another nickname you know But that was the point I was making Ady, I was there Saturday, and the floor was perfect, but people still put down talc......it's an addiction I tell ya, an addiction Winnie:-)
