"Some clubs don't play to the crowd,but you've got to bear in mind they've paid to come in." we dont get in for free .its not a question of moaning,just putting a valid and true point across.trying to get to the attic,trying to get a couple of mates to go,as i dont drive,if i did i wouldnt because i like the falling down water too much .the ambassadors is called good love gone bad.its the flip to ive got to find happiness.this was issued with a different flip as well called im so proud of you

and another point.local people have tried to put nights on over the years where something from the same old stuff ALL night is played but were just called for doing so ie,the early days of awsworth,the union,the boat and horses in beston,these all got slatted off for doing what they did.little that some people know that the tunes that they are now throwing themselves about the dance floor to are in fact the tunes that where played at these dos.people say to me now when a certain record is played.."wow great record"..it well might be but the same record was played at the above dos.it seems a good record is only good till certain people say so and then it might get a spin,then it gets played over and over again,everyone goes out to get a copy,so every dj from here to the moon has got one and then it becomes very very borin.its been a very long time LOCALLY,apart from the odd place, that a dj has stood behind the decks and said "hears a great tune (oldie 70s rnb whatever) see what you think".the only thing its going to harm is reputations and egos.thats why it dont happen.

just to add,my now girlfriend gave me a cd bout 4-5 years ago,had a track on it called promise by mer-lyn.i had never heard it but instantly liked it and wanted one.i got one played it at skeg weekender.my good mates pete n steve from annesley now have copies and are playing it.on the other hand mr steve brown played a tune on saturday that i had not heard and again i instantly wanted one.so it shows that there is good tunes out there crying out to be played.

hello lnysey and wez.if you are talking about the local scene that forget it.ive banged on about it for ages myself.no one listens.at the end of the day no one is going to do anything different they are all too scared.seen it a 1000 times.a dj will try a couple of tunes thats not the norm if half the people stand there looking fed up or they start walking off the dance BANG right back to the same old stuff.i went to BIDDS alnighter the other week and i tell you its a different world,totally blew me away.ive also noticed that these local dos it seems that with the djs its "you come to my do then you can do a dj spot and if come to yours ill do a spot there" i'll scratch your back you scratch mine.thats why you hear the same old stuff.i cant understand why a group of people would sooner dance shite like tribute to f$%^ing betty and all that other none soul crap,which is what it is,then have a good solid dancable 60s 70s proper soul record.over the last few years ive seen great soul records clear dance floors and its very sad.ive said this before as well,the appreciation has all gone and the handbag night has took over im affraid.im like you dont go to many local dos anymore.maybe i should to see if owts changed but it looks like you going to have to look futher afield to get what you want.now if any local promoter is reading this im not having a go.just stating facts,you know its true.ive been told by one or two people that run dos its the way its got to be,they have to play the same old stuff to keep people happy.before i go to anyone who knows me its not about rare soul,RnB,which is what i get tagged with only liking,its about good honest soul music.get it played!!
