What you trying to say Kev !! Lol

Cheers Mach, I'll check that out when I get home.

WHAT IS IT ???????

A promoter books a DJ to play what a DJ plays and not to play what the promoter plays. If the floor is empty it is because the Promoter hasn't done his/her homework and booked the wrong kind of DJ for his/her venue.

Hey Russ, haven't we been here before and before and, oh yes, before. Have you anything to add or should we say ' I refer the honourabe gentleman to my previous reply ' Lol !

Hey guys and girls. Fortunate enough to be offered a White Demo at cost price so have snapped it up. Thanks for all your replies Tezza XX

Thanks Kirsty XX

Who knows ? John Bowie - 'You're Gonna Miss a Good Thing' - Proper copy ( Demo ) How much ??

The Black Bull is the place to go to hear something a little away from the norm. Not Earls Court but quality stuff !!

Thanks for clearing that up for me Nev Lol !!

Funnily enough it has been played at the last 3 places I've been to this last Month.

Are we allowed to play this as OVO - 2nd release ? Do we turn a blind eye. Does look nice though !!

What did it go for then Ted ?

What is the starting price - current bid ?

Cheers dude XX

Hi Sharmo, It wasn't really down to those 2 or 3 tunes they were just the catalyst that set my mind swirling a little. I had an overall feeling of disillusionment and questioned myself and my position in the scene. I have had a few long chats with friends that have put my head back right but it was a strange few hours where I had a flash of dispair. I think it is still there but I will ignore it and 'Play and be Damned'. I fear for the rest - although I don't really think they give a shit anyway !!! Perhaps I care too much ...

I understand what you are saying Ady. I wasn't breaking in anything new as such, I was playing old stuff that I recall from my youth. Perhaps back in the day I was the 'only one' who liked it and I didn't see it !! It wasn't just about that night though, I'm not so fickle as to throw in the towel over 1 or 2 bad record choices. It just made me think that perhaps I am a dinosaur and I should step aside for the bigger boys. It is really difficult to put into words the way I felt yesterday but it just came over me in a hour or 2 of solitude. And Spurs were losing badly to West Ham so maybe I was on a downer Ha ha !!

Really feel like I am in a state of flux at the moment. This weekend we had our little soirée at The Hollingwood Hotel which went extremely well, better actually than I expected what with Stoke being on as well. My Hour behind the decks was warmly received by the assembled masses and the feedback was excellent. Background stuff — Out most weekends to various places and hear a lot of the regular stuff, they are popular with the DJ’s and the crowds, you can tell as the floor is always busy. (Hate the phrases ‘Easy stuff, Top 500 etc and all the other). Who am I to disagree? I tend to steer away from that kind of stuff and play a bit, although not ‘Rare’ it is left somewhat on the back shelf. This weekend I played 2 or 3 that I absolutely adore and thought that people would love to hear but got a rather lax response. It made me think that perhaps I am out of touch with all this and would probably be better just hanging up the proverbial spurs and sitting back in my arm chair and listen to my IPod. This is not me wanting someone to come along and give me praise or bolster my bruised ego with a hearty pat on the back etc. Yesterday afternoon, in an hour or 2 of reflection I considered putting my records up on E-Bay or Soul Source and washing my hands of it. I see why DT did this last year and it is becoming increasingly difficult to feel the motivation. It hurts inside but is it, as a lot of younger people say, time to let go the past and move on. Been doing this shit for 40+ years and never really felt this way. I am busier than I have ever been DJing wise so on the crest of a wave but still feel the need to wear a life jacket. Is this just me or are others feeling it too? By the way — don’t want snide little comments or people telling me I should try this venue or that venue. Have you been through this and come out the other side or just thrown in the towel?

Keep on Truckin' - not heard that for a long while

Well it will be 'used' !!

Yep, get Mr M's boolk, knock off 25% and you will have a fair price. Any you are not sure of put up on here and I am sure that the Guru's on here will tell you what you have. I trust their judgment, never done me wrong, so far. When you have done i'll buy the book off you !!

It is a little old hat and very cringe worthy. KTF - KOKO and being part of The Soul Family !! 16, 17 year old perhaps but at my age, a man in my position , really !!! Like calling someone a Cool Cat or such. Dont even thing you'd catch Gene Hunt saying it !!
