am with you Macca, yes I hate Holly St James "thats not soul" too think it was 78 for my pop i started going to the Hacienda and stopped venturing to Wigan for my (northern) soul, pity as from playlists things got a lot better danny

Sure it would be, was just responding to your point re a dj making money out of an artist, in that unearthing a new tune isnt primarily money motivated more kudos methinks. Many djs spend alot of time and money to bring something fresh to the scene, see no harm in them having an edge for a while for their efforts. I think it adds to the mystique and creates more interest especially when finally "outed". Unfortunately the act doesnt usually come first with Northern Soul, hence all the moaning about putting up with live acts at gigs! Its a bit like finding a great unknown source for Northern 45's would you tell everyone and help the proprietor to increase business or keep it too yourself danny

Likely that no one would have heard the tune if it wasnt for dj discovery, most NS djs dont exactly draw big dosh dd

there was a documentary about the band Cream recently, Flamingo all niters were mentioned heres a pic (hope) of entrance danny

eh, thought thats exactly how Sotherby's (or Christie's) worked, an item is auctioned going up in price until there is only 1 bidder left Danny D

Sarcasm in reply to patronising matey, has everything regards NS got to revolve around you or wherever you sanction! and why would i want/have to visit and hear some rude swearing bloke arrogantly continue inform me how great HIS VENUES are. As said a thread bout film, keep your bigger best boasts for hyping up your venue and we'll keep the faith in our little world. You want vinegar with that big chip? Danny D

hey sister err their not actually signed up for the film, in the media pack it says these are the sorta players they want, kinda like Sam Allardyce saying he'd like Roy Keane in his team Danny

We're not all lucky enough to fall out the front door into a hotbed of soul nights, as you admit you aint been here, so you probably have no idea what its like to keep a scene going in a place with no immediate big audience. But what we lack in numbers is made up with enthusiasm, good vibe, more youths coming onto our scene which is growing every month. What we dont have is big ego's whose ideals are biggest is best and manage to ensure the few nights we do have dont clash with each other. Plus everyone knows that Northern Soul dancing evolved from a mixture of the highland fling, siege of ennis and the Hakka lighten up this is a thread about auditions for a NS film not knocking the so called backwaters of NS, but hey thanks for your encouragement. PS: next week Mick H is making the lonely trek over by donkey, we're hoping the radiogram will be repaired by then. perhaps when he returns back to UK in 3 weeks you can ask him bout us. Danny D

oh yes it is tho more probably coz the northern Soul hot bed of all film makers the Irish Film board part funded this project danny d
