i'll be there.would have loved to have go to the orig brit but not that old (no offence ment) ..you will know me straight away..will be funny

ebay have done the bidder 1 2 3 thing on high bids so that it protects people from getting dodgey spam mail....ie sometimes if you bid big bucks on a tune and then lost it..you get some fucker emailing you,like its offical from ebay saying that they have a copy and would you like to buy it..people have fell for it..so now these fucks cant see whos winning or losing big priced 45s .but niether can we.thats one of the reason

the union was one of my fav places.mick has moved it from one place to another,he moved it to TBI and to me it went a little sour,plus cos people know i collect records i got sick of people say "have you got this, that, the other,bet you aint got one of these" used to do me head in.but thats another story.ANNESLEY well yeah i like,been going there from the start more or less.i'll be there in the afternoon i know pete and steve very well.they know my feelings on what ive said about the scene and agree to most of it.will be interesting to see what gets played...mick h...kenney burrell.im not sure but i think one of them isnt on.shall be interesting anyhow.as you may know the notts scene is flooded with venues and they are all doing the same thing WHY! all this b&*(@:ks they talk about like "wigan classics" most of them nevevr went i bet.i dont really care where it was played,who played it first dont care.AWSWORTH was good in the early days when andy & deb riley ran it along with derek allen but no one went because people said they played rare and obscure stuff..if people had gone they would have heard some great soul music.same with BOAT & HORSES that andy and deb ran..same response..these places wasnt rare and obscure they played good solid soul.....people are too ignorant and too narrow minded....and these are the same people who dance to things like pat & the blenders and oxford nights...if they had come to these dos years ago they would have heard them way b4 now.anyway could go on forever.i shall be at annesley,there all day so shall be bit drunk by the end of the night.if your there i shall say hello,you will know how i am

annesleys ok.best bit is early on.been going there since the start more or less.i know pete and steve well and they have a do passion for good soul.i will always support pete and steve,they are couple of good guys

NO WORRIES I WILL KEEP MY CHIN UP.ONE LAST THING HERE IN NOTTS OVER A FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT YOU CAN HAVE ACCESS TO AT LEAST 6 SOUL DOS.3 EACH NIGHT.BEEN KNOWN TO HAVE 4 IN ONE NIGHT.BUT WHEN YOU AINT GOT PASSION, AN OPEN MIND AND ONLY A FEW KEV ROBERTS CDS THEN THERES NOT MUCH TO LOOK FORWARD...AND WHAT I MEAN IS MOST (THATS NOT EVERY ONE) MOST PEOPLE HAVE ONLY EVER READ KEVS TOP 500 BOOK AND BOUGHT THE ODD GOLDMINE CDS.OH WELL I THINK IVE SAID WHAT I NEED TO TO SAY.SO ALL THE BEST.CHEERS

THEY ARE NOT MY FAVS,JUST A COUPLE TO HAND.SOME OFF THEM TUNES SHOULD OUT PLAYED BY NOW.I BET MOST OF THE LOCAL DJS (I.E. IN NOTTS) DONT EVEN OWN A COPY

a really crap excuse but i work six days a week and i only get out saturday nights.i used to go to bretby and alnighters in derby.dont drive so have to rely on lifts.got fed up of the promises off people that dont i mention it anymore,i just hope and i think the scene in notts could be really good again.ive seen some playlist from dos around the country and sometimes i just cry when i read them because they have been really good.trust me if i could i would be out of notts most weekends.i know people have taken a dis-like to me say that but i wish they would wake up open up their ears and appreciate the music a bit more

good double sider.just getting rid of a few bits cos ive had them a while and need to fund my need of buying records

when you get it play the other side

as you know bish.theres that middle part of the scene thats missing.lots have started new venues up of late and not one of them are doing owt different to the ones that have been going for a few years now.one or two of us have talked about starting a do but i think it might be like trying to flog a dead horse

just been through my boxes..these are a few tunes i would like to hear.all tried and tested clasics in my eyes yet over the last 6-7 years maybe longer i have never heard these played out in notts.most probably played to death somewhere in the country fabulous peps-my love looks good on you strides-i can get along without your love chi-lites shes mine parliaments-heart trouble (i know of one local dj who will play this) expressions-you better know it mickey laney-im gonna walk vala-quons-window shopping on girls avenue also got 100s of midtempo, RnB,forgotten oldies,100 mph stompers.got a right mixed bag of stuff.i even have some 70s

JUST WISH SOMEONE WOULD DO SOMETHING HERE IN NOTTS,BUT DONT THINK ANY ONE WILL

NOT MY PLACE TO SAY,WHY DONT YOU TELL ME WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO PLAY AND NOT WHAT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO PLAY.IVE DONE DJ SPOTS BUT HAVE NEVER BECOME A MAINSTREAM DJ BECAUSE I WONT FALL INTO THE TRAP OF YOU MUST PLAY THAT AND YOU CANT PLAY THAT.

SHIT FORGOT THEM,COMPILLING THE LIST WAS SENDING ME TO SLLEP

YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THIS IS THE STUFF IM FED UP OF HEARING

JUST REMEMBER TO BE A GOOD DJ IN NOTTS YOU WILL HAVE TO BRING THE FOLLOWING RUBY ANDREWS-JUST LOVING YOU PATRICE HOLLOWAY-STONEN HOURS FRANK POPP-OWT WILL DO D J GENESIS- TRIBUTE TO BETTY FRANK WILSON--THE BEST SOUL RECORD EVER NOT ACE SPECTRUM -DONT SEND NOBODY ELSE MARV JOHNSON-COME ON AND STOP ISLEY BROS-WHY WHEN LOVE IS GONE WILLIE MITCHELL-THAT DRIVING BEAT JOY LOVEJOY-IN ORBIT KENNY THOMAS-CRAZY LOU RAWLS-SEE U WHEN I GET THERE ONLY WENT BIG SINCE HE SNUFFED IT WHY? LENNY CURTIS- NOTHING CAN STOP YOU NOW STEINWAYS-YOUVE BEEN LEADING ME ON CARSTAIRS-IT REALLY HURTS ME GIRL AND ANY NON-DESCRIPT LATE 70S EARLY 80S DISCO FUNK THATS NOW BEIN PLAYED AS 70S SOUL AND DONT FORGET YOUR 3 B4 8 PLAYS THESE AND YOU WILL BE THE DOGS B@~*&KS YOU WILL NOTICE ME COS I WILL BE

MY POINT EXACTLY,GLAD THERES SOME ONE OUT THERE FEELS THE SAME BY THE WAY "WHAT DOES MAKE A GOOD DJ"

so what you are saying is you dont mind going out week in week out and listening to the same records.im sure you have not been to every do here in notts,if you did you would see what i was on about.like my first post, ginger tayor played here and he was awful.one of the biggest names in the country....djs bein told what they can and cant play does not make a good dj

all you got to do about these boots is dont buy um,saying that some of the record dealers, they sell um all the time.look at rob smith really nice bloke sells shit loads of boots all the time.the demand is there for them because people pay silly money for orig 45s

i think venues will suffer,not everyone is going to pack up smoking

do you have the tommy hunt.can send you the full version if you want it

used to go to the alfreton dos mate.early days.....enjoyed them

will try the attic.do annesley all the time can remember that place when there used to be 30 people in all night.that was the early days.will be there this w/end

not with notts the soul scene there.are you from notts if so you must see it if you go to the dos there

what i mean is thats all there is same old stuff or the rare once a month...there are 1000s of solid tunes out there but no one has the balls to play.i know these people who run these notts dos very well and when you ask for a record they play it early on when no ones there,so no one gets to hear them anyway or if you ask for it later on they say too risky.too risky to play a soul record at a soul do.thats how its got
